Meikle William-Peter |
Biography: |
Senior Astronomer at the European Southern Observatory.
He was born in Athens, Greece on the 27th of January,
1964. He reeived the B.Sc. Honours in Physics (1986) from
the Imperial College of Science and Technology of the
London University, and the Ph.D. in Astrophysics (1989)
also from Imperial. He worked at the Anglo-Australian
Observatory (AAO), Australia first as Research Fellow
(1989-91) and later as a staff Astronomer.There he was
instrument scientist for the Echelle spectrographs and
infrared instrumentation. At ESO he led the NTT
