Mr. Saslaw's research focuses primarily on gravitational clustering in the formation of large scale structure. He has a dual appointment at UVa and at NRAO, and keeps up active collaboration with NRAO scientists. Recently, he and Bill Cotton (NRAO) have used the VLBA to study microlensing by galactic stars of distant radio galaxies. He recently wrote a monograph entitled "The Distribution of the Galaxies: Gravitational Clustering in Cosmology," which has been published by Cambridge University Press.
