معرفی
Sam McSweeney is a Researcher at Curtin University's School of Electrical Engineering, Computer and Mathematical Sciences (EECMS), part of the Faculty of Science and Engineering. His work focuses on pulsar astrophysics, subpulse drifting phenomena, and radio transient detection using instruments like the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA). Key research areas include magnetar-like radio transients, nulling pulsars, and multiwavelength studies of neutron stars. He has contributed to major surveys like the SMART pulsar survey and developed advanced data processing pipelines for transient detection.
Publications since 2023 highlight discoveries of long-period radio transients, emission state-switching phenomena, and multi-instrument follow-up strategies. His work bridges observational astronomy with computational techniques, emphasizing high-time resolution observations and GPU-based imaging for FRB searches.
