Welcome to James Miller-Jones' homepage!

I am a Jansky Fellow at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO), based at NRAO Charlottesville. Prior to that, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Astronomical Institute 'Anton Pannekoek' at the Universiteit van Amsterdam, where I worked with Prof. Rob Fender on X-ray binary systems, transients and LOFAR. Among other things, I have worked on some of the most notorious X-ray binary systems, Cygnus X-3, SS 433, and GRS1915+105. I received my doctorate from Oxford University, where I was a member of St. John's College.

LOFAR

I am also involved (now remotely) in the Transients Key Project aspect of LOFAR, the Low Frequency Array. This is a new radio telescope under construction in the Netherlands, which will continuously monitor the radio sky at frequencies between 10 and 240 MHz.
