Comparing experts and novices in Martian surface feature change detection and identification (2017)
Journal Article
Wardlaw, J., Sprinks, J., Houghton, R., Muller, J., Sidiropoulos, P., Bamford, S., & Marsh, S. (in press). Comparing experts and novices in Martian surface feature change detection and identification. International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jag.2017.05.014

Change detection in satellite images is a key concern of the Earth Observation field for environmental and climate change monitoring. Satellite images also provide important clues to both the past and present surface conditions of other planets, whic...

Constraining symmetron fields with atom interferometry (2016)
Journal Article
Burrage, C., Kuribayashi-Coleman, A., Stevenson, J., & Thrussell, B. (2016). Constraining symmetron fields with atom interferometry. Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2016, Article 041. https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2016/12/041

We apply the new constraints from atom-interferometry searches for screening mechanisms to the symmetron model, finding that these experiments exclude a previously unexplored region of the parameter space. We discuss the possibility of networks of do... Read More about Constraining symmetron fields with atom interferometry.

A proposed experimental search for chameleons using asymmetric parallel plates (2016)
Journal Article
Burrage, C., Copeland, E. J., & Stevenson, J. A. (2016). A proposed experimental search for chameleons using asymmetric parallel plates. Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2016(8), https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2016/08/070

Light scalar fields coupled to matter are a common consequence of theories of dark energy and attempts to solve the cosmological constant problem. The chameleon screening mechanism is commonly invoked in order to suppress the fifth forces mediated by...

Ellipticity weakens chameleon screening (2015)
Journal Article
Burrage, C., Copeland, E. J., & Stevenson, J. (2015). Ellipticity weakens chameleon screening. Physical Review D, D91(6), Article 065030. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.91.065030

The chameleon mechanism enables a long-range fifth force to be screened in dense environments when nontrivial self-interactions of the field cause its mass to increase with the local density. To date, chameleon fifth forces have mainly been studied f... Read More about Ellipticity weakens chameleon screening.
