Cameron specializes in the study of cosmic magnetism, with a focus on magnetic fields in the interstellar medium of the Milky Way, through observations of astrophysical radio emission. He works primarily on radio astronomy observations, particularly on the processing and analysis of such observations, as well as the development of improved analysis methods.

Collaborations:

• POlarization Sky Survey of the Universe's Magnetism (POSSUM)
• Very Large Array Sky Survey (VLASS)
• Global Magneto-Ionic Medium Survey (GMIMS)

Software tools:

• RM-Tools: RM-synthesis, RM-clean and QU-fitting on polarised radio spectra
• RMTable: standardized tables of Faraday rotation measures
• PolSpectra: standardized tables of radio source polarization spectra
• FRion: time-independent correction of ionospheric Faraday rotation

For specific projects, discuss directly with Cameron. In general, available projects focus on magnetic fields in the interstellar medium, and radio polarization observations for the measurement of these fields.

Projects are available with different focuses, depending on student interest:

• Algorithm/software development (heavy programming focus/skill development)
• (Radio) Astromical data analysis (heavy data focus/skill development)
• Simulations of ISM/polarization behaviour (heavy simulation focus/skill development)
