Rolf A. Jansen
![]() Research Scientist
Ph.D., University of Groningen, 2000 |
Rolf Jansen's research focuses on ground- and space-based
ultraviolet–mid-infrared broad- and narrow-band surface photometry and
spectroscopy of relatively nearby galaxies. His aim is to study their content
and to unravel their formation and assembly histories as a function of galaxy
type, luminosity, and cosmic environment, and to track the hierarchical
assembly of galaxies over time to the present.
He served as Instrument Scientist for a NASA concept study into a
next-generation UV–optical space telescope, provided input and support
to the James Webb Space Telescope project, and is currently a member of a
WFIRST Science Investigation Team. School of Earth and Space Exploration
