Exploring the progenitors of brightest cluster galaxies at z ∼ 2 (2016)
Journal Article
Zhao, D., Conselice, C. J., Aragón-Salamanca, A., Almaini, O., Hartley, W. G., Lani, C., …Old, L. (2017). Exploring the progenitors of brightest cluster galaxies at z ∼ 2. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 464(2), 1393-1414. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stw2406

We present a new method for tracing the evolution of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) from z ∼ 2 to z ∼ 0. We conclude on the basis of semi-analytical models that the best method to select BCG progenitors at z ∼ 2 is a hybrid environmental density a...

Background: Consumption of fat is regulated by reward and homeostatic pathways, but no studies have examined the role of the intake of a high fat meal (HFM) on subsequent brain activation to oral stimuli.
Objective: We evaluated how prior consumptio... Read More about Prior consumption of a fat meal in healthy adults modulates the brain’s response to fat.

Bolton, J. S., Puchwein, E., Sijacki, D., Haehnelt, M. G., Kim, T.-S., Meiksin, A., …Viel, M. (2017). The Sherwood simulation suite: overview and data comparisons with the Lyman-α forest at redshifts 2≤z≤5. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 464(1), 897-914. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stw2397

We introduce a new set of large-scale, high-resolution hydrodynamical simulations of the intergalactic medium: the Sherwood simulation suite. These are performed in volumes of 103–1603h−3 comoving Mpc3, span almost four orders of magnitude in mass re...

Triple-resonant Brillouin light scattering in magneto-optical cavities (2016)
Journal Article
Haigh, J., Nunnenkamp, A., Ramsay, A., & Ferguson, A. (2016). Triple-resonant Brillouin light scattering in magneto-optical cavities. Physical Review Letters, 117(13), Article 133602. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.117.133602

An enhancement in Brillouin light scattering of optical photons with magnons is demonstrated in magneto-optical whispering gallery mode resonators tuned to a triple-resonance point. This occurs when both the input and output optical modes are resonan... Read More about Triple-resonant Brillouin light scattering in magneto-optical cavities.
