<Trevor Ponman> is an <astrophysicist> who studies hot gas in <galaxies>, <galaxy groups> and <galaxy clusters>. Such gas records both gravitational confinement and the <energy> supplied by stellar activity.https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/staff/profiles/physics/ponman-trevor[University of Birmingham research profile]{ref}
With <Dave Strickland> and <Ian Stevens>, he analysed diffuse <X-ray> emission from the M82 <galactic wind>. Separating point sources from extended emission allowed the team to infer properties of the outflowing gas and test physical explanations for its radiation.<ROSAT Observations of the Galactic Wind in M82 by Dave Strickland and others>[Abstract: separation of point and diffuse emission]{ref}
