Stephen Eales

Stephen Eales is a professor of astrophysics at Cardiff University, where he is currently head of the Astronomy Group.[1] In 2015, he was awarded the Herschel Medal[2][3] from the Royal Astronomical Society for outstanding contributions to observational astrophysics. He also writes articles and books about astronomy.[4][5][6][7]

Research

His main research field is the new field of submillimetre astronomy, in particular using submillimetre observations to investigate the origin and evolution of galaxies. He has led a number of large submillimetre observing programmes. In particular, with Loretta Dunne he led the Herschel ATLAS[2][8][9] the largest survey of the extragalactic sky carried out with the Herschel Space Observatory.[10]
