Optimising experimental design for MEG resting state functional connectivity measurement (2016)
Journal Article

The study of functional connectivity using magnetoencephalography (MEG) is an expanding area of neuroimaging, and adds an extra dimension to the more common assessments made using fMRI. The importance of such metrics is growing, with recent demonstra... Read More about Optimising experimental design for MEG resting state functional connectivity measurement.

Charge transfer interactions between C60 and the metal surfaces of Ag(111), Cu(111), Au(111) and Pt(111) have been studied using synchrotron-based photoemission, resonant photoemission and X-ray absorption spectroscopies. By placing the X-ray absorp... Read More about Resonant core spectroscopies of the charge transfer interactions between C60 and the surfaces of Au(111), Ag(111), Cu(111) and Pt(111).

A compendium of chameleon constraints (2016)
Journal Article
Burrage, C., & Sakstein, J. (2016). A compendium of chameleon constraints. Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2016(11), Article 045. https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2016/11/045

The chameleon model is a scalar field theory with a screening mechanism that explains how a cosmologically relevant light scalar can avoid the constraints of intra-solar-system searches for fifth-forces. The chameleon is a popular dark energy candida... Read More about A compendium of chameleon constraints.

The Herschel-ATLAS: a sample of 500μm-selected lensed galaxies over 600 deg2 (2016)
Journal Article
Negrello, M., Amber, S., Amvrosiadis, A., Cai, Z., Lapi, A., Gonzalez-Nuevo, J., …van der Werf, P. (2017). The Herschel-ATLAS: a sample of 500μm-selected lensed galaxies over 600 deg2. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 465(3), 3558-3580. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stw2911

We present a sample of 80 candidate strongly lensed galaxies with flux density above 100 mJy at 500 μm extracted from the Herschel Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey, over an area of 600 deg2. Available imaging and spectroscopic data allow us... Read More about The Herschel-ATLAS: a sample of 500μm-selected lensed galaxies over 600 deg2.

Metastability in an open quantum Ising model (2016)
Journal Article
Rose, D. C., Macieszczak, K., Lesanovsky, I., & Garrahan, J. P. (2016). Metastability in an open quantum Ising model. Physical Review E, 94(5), Article 052132. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.94.052132

We apply a recently developed theory for metastability in open quantum systems to a one-dimensional dissipative quantum Ising model. Earlier results suggest this model features either a nonequilibrium phase transition or a smooth but sharp crossover,... Read More about Metastability in an open quantum Ising model.

Optimal Counter-current exchange networks (2016)
Journal Article
Farr, R., & Mao, Y. (2016). Optimal Counter-current exchange networks. Physical Review E, 94(5), https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.94.052410

We present a general analysis of exchange devices linking their efficiency to the geometry of the exchange surface and supply network. For certain parameter ranges, we show that the optimal exchanger consists of densely packed pipes which can span a... Read More about Optimal Counter-current exchange networks.

Radiative screening of fifth forces (2016)
Journal Article
Burrage, C., Copeland, E. J., & Millington, P. (2016). Radiative screening of fifth forces. Physical Review Letters, 117(21), Article 211102. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.117.211102

© 2016 American Physical Society. We describe a symmetron model in which the screening of fifth forces arises at the one-loop level through the Coleman-Weinberg mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking. We show that such a theory can avoid current... Read More about Radiative screening of fifth forces.

Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA): active galactic nuclei in pairs of galaxies (2016)
Journal Article
Gordon, Y. A., Owers, M. S., Pimbblet, K. A., Croom, S. M., Alpaslan, M., Baldry, I. K., …Wang, L. (2017). Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA): active galactic nuclei in pairs of galaxies. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 465(3), https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stw2925

There exist conflicting observations on whether or not the environment of broad and narrow line AGN differ and this consequently questions the validity of the AGN unification model. The high spectroscopic completeness of the GAMA survey makes it idea... Read More about Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA): active galactic nuclei in pairs of galaxies.
