Systematics in tests of general relativity using LISA massive black hole binaries (2024)
Journal Article
Garg, M., Sberna, L., Speri, L., Duque, F., & Gair, J. (2024). Systematics in tests of general relativity using LISA massive black hole binaries. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 535(4), 3283-3292. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae2605

Our current understanding is that an environment – mainly consisting of gas or stars – is required to bring massive black hole binaries (MBHBs) with total redshifted mass Mz ∼ [104, 107] M to the LISA band from parsec separation. Even in the gravitat... Read More about Systematics in tests of general relativity using LISA massive black hole binaries.

Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series C, 74(2), 406-428. https://doi.org/10.1093/jrsssc/qlae060

Peatlands account for 10% of UK land area, 80% of which are degraded to some degree, emitting carbon at a similar magnitude to oil refineries or landfill sites. A lack of tools for rapid and reliable assessment of peatland condition has limited monit... Read More about Object oriented data analysis of surface motion time series in peatland landscapes.

A range of voltage-clamp protocol designs for rapid capture of hERG kinetics (2024)
Preprint / Working Paper
Lei, C. L., J Whittaker, D., J Windley, M., D Perry, M., P Hill, A., & R Mirams, G. A range of voltage-clamp protocol designs for rapid capture of hERG kinetics

We provide details of a series of short voltage-clamp protocols designed for gathering a large amount of information on hERG (Kv11.1) ion channel gating. The protocols have a limited number of steps and consist only of steps and ramps, making them ea... Read More about A range of voltage-clamp protocol designs for rapid capture of hERG kinetics.
