Benjamin Cooke is a Research Fellow in the Astronomy and Astrophysics group at the University of Warwick. He works in the Centre for Space Domain Awareness and is actively involved in the development of GPU-assisted pipelines for detecting satellite debris in Low Earth Orbit (LEO). His research employs a method known as blind stacking, which is designed to detect moving objects through a series of stationary frames. Benjamin completed his PhD at Warwick under the supervision of Professor Don Pollacco, focusing on simulation and detection of monotransits from the TESS mission. He has authored and co-authored several noteworthy publications, including works that classify LEO satellites and simulate the recovery of LEO objects. His interests lie in the intersection of astrophysics and space observation technologies, aimed at improving the understanding of satellite behaviors and characteristics in space. Benjamin is also engaged in contributing to significant conferences, sharing his research findings related to astronomical observations and methodologies.
