Intra-operative spectroscopic assessment of surgical margins during breast conserving surgery (2018)
Journal Article
Shipp, D. W., Rakha, E. A., Koloydenko, A. A., Macmillan, R. D., Ellis, I. O., & Notingher, I. (2018). Intra-operative spectroscopic assessment of surgical margins during breast conserving surgery. Breast Cancer Research, 20, https://doi.org/10.1186/s13058-018-1002-2

Background: In over 20% of breast conserving operations, postoperative pathological assessment of the excised tissue reveals positive margins, requiring additional surgery. Current techniques for intra-operative assessment of tumor margins are insuff... Read More about Intra-operative spectroscopic assessment of surgical margins during breast conserving surgery.

We present an analysis of the structure of post-starburst (PSB) galaxies in the redshift range 0.5 less than z less than 2, using a photometrically selected sample identified in the Ultra Deep Survey field. We examine the structure of ∼80 of t... Read More about The structure of post-starburst galaxies at 0.5 < z < 2: evidence for two distinct quenching routes at different epochs.

Non-perturbative aspects of galileon duality (2018)
Journal Article

We study quantum aspects of the galileon duality, especially in the case of a particular interacting galileon theory that is said to be dual to a free theory through the action of a simultaneous field and coordinate transformation. This would appear... Read More about Non-perturbative aspects of galileon duality.

Chromodynamical analysis of lenticular galaxies using globular clusters and planetary nebulae (2018)
Journal Article

Chromodynamical analysis of lenticular galaxies using globular clusters and planetary nebulae. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty1737

Recovering the origins of lenticular galaxies can shed light on the understanding of galaxy formation and evolution, since they present properties that can be found in both elliptical and spiral galaxies. In this work we study the kinematics of the g... Read More about Chromodynamical analysis of lenticular galaxies using globular clusters and planetary nebulae.

Fluctuations about the Fubini-Lipatov instanton for false vacuum decay in classically scale invariant models (2018)
Journal Article
Garbrecht, B., & Millington, P. (in press). Fluctuations about the Fubini-Lipatov instanton for false vacuum decay in classically scale invariant models. Physical Review D, 98(1), Article 016001. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.98.016001

For a scalar theory whose classical scale invariance is broken by quantum effects, we compute self-consistent bounce solutions and Green's functions. Deriving analytic expressions, we find that the latter are similar to the Green's functions in the a...

Dynamic nuclear polarisation enhanced solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance studies of surface modification of γ-alumina (2018)
Journal Article

Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) gives large (>100-fold) signal enhancements in solid-state NMR spectra via the transfer of spin polarization from unpaired electrons from radicals implanted in the sample. This means that the detailed information ab... Read More about Dynamic nuclear polarisation enhanced solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance studies of surface modification of γ-alumina.

We demonstrate pre-transition effects in space--time in trajectories of systems in which the dynamics displays a first-order phase transition between distinct dynamical phases. These effects are analogous to those observed for thermodynamic first-ord... Read More about Solvation in space-time: pre-transition effects in trajectory space.
