The Cosmic Savannah Ep. 79: RADHIANCE Research at the University of Oxford
Saturday, 28 February, 2026
Hosted by Dr. Jacinta Delhaize, Dr. Tshiamiso Makwela, Dr. Daniel Cunnama & François Campher With Tumelo Mangena, Leyya Stockenstroom and Ndivhuwo Netshiavha. In this episode, we hear from three postgraduate astronomy students from the University of Cape Town about their worldly adventures during a research trip to the University of Oxford in the UK! PhD student Tumelo Mangena and Masters students Leyya Stockenstroom and Ndivhuwo Netshiavha are part of the RADHIANCE research group led by our very own Jacinta Delhaize! They use world-leading telescopes, like South Africa's MeerKAT, to examine the light from distant galaxies to try and understand why they have mysteriously changed and evolved over the history of the Universe. Their team name, RADHIANCE, stands for "Radio-Based Analysis and Detection of HI, AGN, star-formatioN, and their Cosmic Evolution" – and they even have a cute logo!
