Scope and content
This series documents various aspects of Prof Garrison’s research activities. Research files are arranged alphabetically by subject with observation notebooks placed at the end. Files contain not only data and early drafts of papers but also extensive correspondence and e-mail with the colleagues on collaborations. Early dated research files usually contain research collected by past astronomy professors and passed on to Garrison.
This series also contains copies of Garrison’s research grant applications and reports from 1987 to 2007 as well as one very early application from 1969.
