Bio:

PhD on ASE collisional excitation soft X-ray lasers at the Queens University of Belfast May 1992. Using the Vulcan laser which provided combined ns and ps pulses he worked on experiments exploring electron acceleration, high harmonic production, shocks and plasma diagnostics. The short pulse laser power was steadily increased through a number of facility upgrades, attaining PW performance in 2003 which enabled the first experiments fully in the relativistic interaction regime to be undertaken. His interest in pre-plasma free interactions led to utilising plasma mirrors in 2005 to enhance the laser contrast to investigate ion acceleration from ultra-thin (20nm) foils.
