Description:
This project will explore the life cycle of radio-loud AGN across cosmic time, using deep
multi-frequency data from LOFAR and complementary radio observations. The student will investigate how
radio AGN evolve, how their duty cycles change with environment, and how their large-scale structures
trace galaxy and cosmic-web growth. The work offers opportunities to study both nearby and distant systems,
enabling broad comparisons and population-level trends. Machine-learning methods will be developed and
applied for source detection, morphological classification, and characterisation of physical properties.
The project is ideal for a student keen to work at the intersection of extragalactic radio astronomy,
survey science, and data-driven techniques.
