Sunrise at Dixon's Kingdom, Tasmania. If the coat looks unusual that's because it's frozen solid.

    I am also a screening judge for the Origin of Life Prize.

  • PhD topic: Looking at generating mass and fermion generations dynamically from a V-A theory, the motivation being that the electroweak bosons are a composite of vector and axial fields. Several papers coming soon.

    If I ever find inordinate amounts of time AND have nothing better to do (neither is very likely!) I'll endeavour to make this page a little less boring.
