Observational Astrophysics

CU Boulder astrophysicists consistently contribute high quality research to the astronomical community with observations of: exoplanets, star formation, molecular clouds, the interstellar and intergalactic medium, cosmic microwave background, galaxies in all stages of evolution, AGN, accretion disks, quasars, and cosmic x-ray sources. It is easy for observational astrophysics students to work in more than one research area, or with a professor in one of our many affiliated institutions.
