About
Dr. Larry Bradley is an astrophysicist and software engineer at the Space Telescope Science Institute. His research interests are in the field of observational extragalactic astronomy, focusing on the formation and evolution of galaxies in the very early universe. He primarily uses the Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescopes to find and study high-redshift Lyman-break galaxies, including those gravitationally lensed by massive galaxy clusters. He is a member of the Reionization Lensing Cluster Survey (RELICS), Cluster Lensing and Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH), Brightest of Reionizing Galaxies (BoRG), and Hubble Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) Science teams as well as a science advisor to the Hubble Frontier Fields program.
A1689-zD1: Lensed Galaxy at z ~ 7.6
RELICS
RELICS (Reionization Lensing Cluster Survey) is a large Hubble Space Telescope treasury program to disover some of the best and brightest high-redshift galaxy candidates for follow-up study with current observatories and the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).
Frontier Fields
The Hubble Space Telescope Frontier Fields is revolutionary deep field observing program to peer deeper into the Universe than ever before and provide a first glimpse of JWST's universe.
CLASH
The Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH) is an innovative survey to place new constraints on the fundamental components of the cosmos using the Hubble Space Telescope.
BoRG
The Brightest of Reionizing Galaxies Survey (BoRG) is a large Hubble Space Telescope Program focused on finding rare and bright galaxy candidates at redshifts z >~ 8, when the Universe was less than 650 million years old.
