Nicholas Lockerbie

Nick studied for his BSc and PhD at the University of Nottingham. Subsequent to his work at Nottingham, Nick went to France to work for the Commissariat à l'Énergie Atomique, in Grenoble (where he later returned for a year's sabbatical from Strathclyde), and he was subsequently a Royal Society Overseas Research Fellow at the École Normale Supérieure, in Paris, before joining the (then) Department of Applied Physics, at Strathclyde.

Research

Detection of gravitational radiation (with the IGR at the University of Glasgow, the University of Birmingham, and RAL), gravity gradiometry, and testing of the Equivalence Principle (with the University of Stanford).
