Prof. Robin C. Ball
Research Interests
Statistical physics with emphasis on self-organising systems. Examples include fractal aggregates, polymer microstructures and protein folding, dynamics of fracture and granular and colloidal materials.
Fermions as an emergent phenomenon.
See Theoretical Physics Research Group for more detail and for my theory colleagues.
I am currently Head of Physics Department.
