Established in Oct 2015, the E.A. Milne Centre for Astrophysics at the University of Hull is a leading international research unit, with collaborators across more than 40 countries. Beyond the research activity, we are engaged in Education/Public Outreach (EPO) activities, delivering 500+ events to schools and the public since 2015, reaching 50,000 people directly, and a further million+ through online activities.

A theme which has grown organically within the Centre is based around `Galactic Archaeology', confronting sophisticated galactic chemical evolution approaches (Gibson) and industry-leading nucleosynthetic yields (Pignatari, Stancliffe), with the observational chemo-dynamical properties of galaxies. Among other research fields, nuclear astrophysics is therefore a major field of interest with the study of the origin of elements in the universe, fully aligned with the main goals of ChETEC-INFRA.
