A LEGO TM Dynamic Force "Macroscope" (2020)
Journal Article
Taylor, D., Smaje, . H., & Moriarty, P. (2020). A LEGO TM Dynamic Force "Macroscope". American Journal of Physics, 88(11), Article 906. https://doi.org/10.1119/10.0001700

We describe the design, construction, and operation of a LEGO TM model of a dynamic force microscope, using magnetic forces as an analog of interatomic interactions. The "macroscope" provides key insights into the operating principles of frequency mo... Read More about A LEGO TM Dynamic Force "Macroscope".

Context. M 105 (NGC 3379) is an early-type galaxy in the Leo I group. The Leo I group is the nearest group that contains all main galaxy types and can thus be used as a benchmark to study the properties of the intra-group light (IGL) in low-mass grou...

Formation of S0s in extreme environments II: the star-formation histories of bulges, discs and lenses (2020)
Journal Article
Johnston, E. J., Aragón-Salamanca, A., Fraser-McKelvie, A., Merrifield, M., Häußler, B., Coccato, L., Jaffé, Y., Cortesi, A., Chies-Santos, A., Rodríguez Del Pino, B., & Sheen, Y.-K. (2021). Formation of S0s in extreme environments II: the star-formation histories of bulges, discs and lenses. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 500(3), 4193-4212. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa2838

Different processes have been proposed to explain the formation of S0s, including mergers, disc instabilities, and quenched spirals. These processes are expected to dominate in different environments, and thus leave characteristic footprints in the k...

We present cosmological parameter results from the final full-mission Planck measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies, combining information from the temperature and polarization maps and the lensing reconstruction. Compared... Read More about Planck 2018 results: VI. Cosmological parameters.

Automated Searching and Identification of Self-Organized Nanostructures (2020)
Journal Article

Currently, researchers spend significant time manually searching through large volumes of data produced during scanning probe imaging to identify specific patterns and motifs formed via self-assembly and self-organization. Here, we use a combination... Read More about Automated Searching and Identification of Self-Organized Nanostructures.

NeuroImage: Clinical, 28, Article 102377. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nicl.2020.102377

Triple network dysfunction theory of schizophrenia postulates that the interaction between the default-mode and the fronto-parietal executive network is disrupted by aberrant salience signals from the right anterior insula (rAI). To date, it is not c... Read More about Effective connectivity of the right anterior insula in schizophrenia: the salience network and task-negative to task-positive transition.
