Peder Norberg

I am Professor in the Institute for Computational Cosmology (ICC) and the Centre for Extragalactic Astronomy (CEA) in the Ogden Center for Fundamental Physics part of the Department of Physics at Durham University. My research interests are aimed at understanding the large scale distribution of galaxies in the Universe, galaxy formation and evolution and the relation between the underlying mass and the observed light from galaxies.

Probing the Growth of Non-Linear Structure in the Dark Universe with Statistical Analyses of Galaxy Surveys

My research interests are aimed at understanding the large scale distribution of galaxies in the Universe, galaxy formation and evolution and the relation between the underlying mass and the observed light from galaxies.
Long term research projects include the preparation and exploitation of future surveys like DESI , Euclid, PAUS and WAVES.

Post-Graduate Lectures

Currently I give a few post-graduate lectures for first year PhD students, with notes listed on DUO . One of the more useful post-grad talks is likely to be the one entitled "How not to write a research proposal".
