Testing star formation laws in a starburst galaxy at redshift 3 resolved with ALMA (2018)
Journal Article
Sharda, P., Federrath, C., da Cunha, E., Swinbank, A., & Dye, S. (2018). Testing star formation laws in a starburst galaxy at redshift 3 resolved with ALMA. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 477(4), 4380-4390. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty886

Using high-resolution (sub-kiloparsec scale) data obtained by ALMA, we analyse the star formation rate (SFR), gas content, and kinematics in SDP 81, a gravitationally lensed starburst galaxy at redshift 3. We estimate the SFR surface density (ΣSFR) i... Read More about Testing star formation laws in a starburst galaxy at redshift 3 resolved with ALMA.

SDSS-IV MaNGA: Star Formation Cessation in Low-redshift Galaxies. I. Dependence on Stellar Mass and Structural Properties (2018)
Journal Article
Riffel, R., Wang, E., Li, C., Xiao, T., Lin, L., Bershady, M., Law, D. R., Merrifield, M., Sanchez, S. F., Riffel, R. A., Riffel, R., & Yan, R. (in press).

We investigate radial gradients in the recent star formation history (SFH) of 1917 MaNGA galaxies with 0.01 < z < 0.14. For each galaxy, we obtain two-dimensional maps and radial profiles for three spectroscopically-measured parameters that are sensi...

An SPH multi-fluid model based on quasi-buoyancy for interface stabilization up to high density ratios and realistic wave speed ratios (2018)
Journal Article
Kruisbrink, A. C., Pearce, F., Yue, T., & Morvan, H. (2018). An SPH multi-fluid model based on quasi-buoyancy for interface stabilization up to high density ratios and realistic wave speed ratios. International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, 87(10), https://doi.org/10.1002/fld.4498

We introduce a Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) concept for the stabilization of the interface between two fluids. It is demonstrated that the change in the pressure gradient across the interface leads to a force imbalance. This force imbalance...

Holographic optical trapping Raman micro-spectroscopy for interacting live cells (2018)
Preprint / Working Paper
Sinjab, F., Elsheikha, H. M., Awuah, D., Gibson, G., Padgett, M., Ghaemmaghami, A. M., & Notingher, I. Holographic optical trapping Raman micro-spectroscopy for interacting live cells

We present a combined holographic optical tweezers and confocal Raman spectroscopy instrument which allows fast, flexible, and interactive manipulation with molecular measurement of interacting live cell systems.

Spontaneous scalarization of black holes and compact stars from a Gauss-Bonnet coupling (2018)
Journal Article
Silva, H. O., Sakstein, J., Gualtieri, L., Sotiriou, T. P., & Berti, E. (2018). Spontaneous scalarization of black holes and compact stars from a Gauss-Bonnet coupling. Physical Review Letters, 120(13), Article 131104. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.120.131104

We identify a class of scalar-tensor theories with coupling between the scalar and the Gauss-Bonnet invariant that exhibit spontaneous scalarization for both black holes and compact stars. In particular, these theories formally admit all of the stati... Read More about Spontaneous scalarization of black holes and compact stars from a Gauss-Bonnet coupling.
