Hi Simon; thanks for your mail. The Carnegie rankings are also very
problematic, but they are frequently used as a shorthand. I tried to
find something equivalent and up-to-date for European universities
[1], but drew a blank - pointers would be welcome.

Thanks,
Greg

[1] Which will still, hopefully, include UK universities...

 Please be very careful in ascribing meaning to whether a UK
university is in the Russell Group or not - it's a largely archaic
grouping (Maybe equivalent to Ivy League? Not sure.). While the
Russell Group members are indeed well-regarded, research-heavy,
institutions, there are many such outside the Group as well.
