Biography
Dr Fiona Panther recieved her PhD from the Australian National University in 2019. Her PhD focussed on understanding the origin of antimatter in the Milky Way galaxy. She investigated origins of antimatter that include the supermassive black hole in the galactic center, and the radioactive decay of material synthesised in supernova explosions, modelling the propagation of antimatter in astrophysical environments.
In 2019 she began a postdoc at the University of New South Wales Canberra, turning her focus to astrophysical transients, in particular supernovae. She studied how nucleosynthesis in supernovae can be investigated using gamma-ray spectroscopy.
In 2020 Panther joined OzGrav-UWA. She now works on discovering gravitational waves and electromagnetic signals emitted by mergering compact objects - white dwarf stars, neutron stars and black holes - and using these observations to learn more about nuclear physics and how matter behaves in the most extreme environments.
