Space and Atmospheric Physics

Welcome to the Space and Atmospheric Physics Group

The Space and Atmospheric Physics group is part of the Department of Physics in the Faculty of Natural Sciences at Imperial College London. We are also strongly involved in the Grantham Institute - Climate Change and the Environment and the Imperial Space Lab. Our aims are to undertake world-class research, and to train new scientists, in both experimental and theoretical aspects of Space Physics and Atmospheric Physics.
