Dr Peter Keys

School of Mathematics and Physics

Dr. Keys’ research interests are in solar physics. Specifically, he is interested in the formation and evolution of small-scale magnetic fields on the Sun using high resolution images. As well as the formation mechanisms of these features, he is interested in how they link between layers of the solar atmosphere to channel energy between regions.
