Gaensler & Slane (GaS) Research Group

Welcome to the WWW page for the research group of Patrick Slane and Bryan Gaensler, a global effort spread between the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, and the School of Physics at The University of Sydney, Australia. We work on a variety of exciting topics in astrophysics, centered on radio, X-ray and optical observations of neutron stars, pulsars, supernova remnants, magnetic fields, shocks and the interstellar medium.
