Ed Daw
I am a professor of particle astrophysics at
The University of Sheffield.
I run the Sheffield Ultra-low-temperature Facility, a laboratory housing
an 18.5cm bore
dilution refrigerator instrumented with an 8T magnet.
This facility has many potential applications, including the
QSHS experiment, a resonant search
for axion dark matter.
My research interests also include gravitational waves,
signal processing, and quantum instrumentation.
This year (October 2026 - September 2027 inclusive) I am on a
Royal Society / Leverhulme senior fellowship, so
I am taking a break from teaching.
