Dr Connor Ballance's research interests involve the fundamental exploration of atomic and molecular structure, associated collisional and laser-driven processes and their interpretation to plasma observation. This includes both astrophysical and magnetically-confined fusion plasmas. We maintain strong links to fusion experiments both in the US and Europe. My group at Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà involves first principle investigations of atomic and molecular structure, subsequent atomic collisional calculations such as electron-impact excitation, ionisation and recombination and also photoionisation.
