Journal Article
Gosling, J. H., Makarovsky, O., Wang, F., Cottam, N. D., Greenaway, M. T., Patanè, A., …Fromhold, T. M. (2021). Universal mobility characteristics of graphene originating from charge scattering by ionised impurities. Communications Physics, 4(1), Article 30. https://doi.org/10.1038/s42005-021-00518-2

Pristine graphene and graphene-based heterostructures can exhibit exceptionally high electron mobility if their surface contains few electron-scattering impurities. Mobility directly influences electrical conductivity and its dependence on the carrie...

Combined total internal reflection AF spectral-imaging and Raman spectroscopy for fast assessment of surgical margins during breast cancer surgery. Biomedical Optics Express, 12(2), 940-954. https://doi.org/10.1364/boe.411648

The standard treatment for breast cancer is surgical removal mainly through breast conserving surgey (BCS). We developed a new technique based on auto-fluorescence (AF) spectral imaging and Raman spectroscopy for fast intraoperative assessment of exc...

Euclid: Forecast constraints on the cosmic distance duality relation with complementary external probes (2020)
Journal Article
Martinelli, M., Martins, C., Nesseris, S., Sapone, D., Tutusaus, I., Avgoustidis, A., …Zacchei, A. (2020). Euclid: Forecast constraints on the cosmic distance duality relation with complementary external probes. Astronomy and Astrophysics, 644, Article A80. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202039078

In metric theories of gravity with photon number conservation, the luminosity and angular diameter distances are related via the Etherington relation, also known as the distance-duality relation (DDR). A violation of this relation would rule out the... Read More about Euclid: Forecast constraints on the cosmic distance duality relation with complementary external probes.

Spin-Induced Black Hole Spontaneous Scalarization (2020)
Journal Article
Dima, A., Barausse, E., Franchini, N., & Sotiriou, T. P. (2020). Spin-Induced Black Hole Spontaneous Scalarization. Physical Review Letters, 125(23), Article 231101. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.125.231101

We study scalar fields in a black hole background and show that, when the scalar is suitably coupled to curvature, rapid rotation can induce a tachyonic instability. This instability, which is the hallmark of spontaneous scalarization in the lineariz... Read More about Spin-Induced Black Hole Spontaneous Scalarization.

A LEGO TM Dynamic Force "Macroscope" (2020)
Journal Article

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...
