UCD Space Science Group

Welcome to the Home page of the UCD Space Science group.
Our main research interests lie in the fields of space-based gamma-ray astronomy (particularly gamma ray bursts), infra-red and optical astronomy and meteorite formation processes.
We have a diverse research programme of gamma-ray burst studies, including access to data from ESA's INTEGRAL satellite and our robotic telescope, Watcher, which provides rapid follow-up observations of Gamma-ray bursts.
