Probing the metallicity and ionization state of the circumgalactic medium at z~6 and beyond with OI absorption (2013)
Journal Article
Keating, L. C., Haehnelt, M. G., Becker, G. D., & Bolton, J. S. (2013). Probing the metallicity and ionization state of the circumgalactic medium at z~6 and beyond with OI absorption. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 438(2), https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stt2324

Low-ionization metal absorption due to O I has been identified as an important probe of the physical state of the intergalactic/circumgalactic medium at the tail end of reionization. We use here high-resolution hydrodynamic simulations to interpret t... Read More about Probing the metallicity and ionization state of the circumgalactic medium at z~6 and beyond with OI absorption.

Strain-mediated coupling in a quantum dot-mechanical oscillator hybrid system (2013)
Journal Article
Yeo, I., de Assis, P., Gloppe, A., Dupont-Ferrier, E., Verlot, P., Malik, N. S., …Richard, M. (2014). Strain-mediated coupling in a quantum dot-mechanical oscillator hybrid system. Nature Nanotechnology, 9(2), 106-110. https://doi.org/10.1038/nnano.2013.274

Recent progress in nanotechnology has allowed the fabrication of new hybrid systems in which a single two-level system is coupled to a mechanical nanoresonator. In such systems the quantum nature of a macroscopic degree of freedom can be revealed and... Read More about Strain-mediated coupling in a quantum dot-mechanical oscillator hybrid system.

A randomised trial of ondansetron for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhoea (2013)
Journal Article
Garsed, K., Chernova, J., Hastings, M., Lam, C., Marciani, L., Singh, G., …Spiller, R. C. (2014). A randomised trial of ondansetron for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhoea. Gut, 63(10), 1617-1625. https://doi.org/10.1136/gutjnl-2013-305989

Background: Irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhoea (IBS-D) is particularly debilitating due to urgency and episodic incontinence. Some 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 (5-HT3) receptor antagonists (5-HT3RAs) have proven effective but have serious side effects....

Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is the 3rd most common cancer worldwide, thus development of novel therapeutic strategies is imperative. Herein potent, selective dose-dependent antitumor activity of horse spleen apoferritin encapsulated PbS quantum dots (...

The one-dimensional Lyα forest power spectrum from BOSS (2013)
Journal Article
Palanque-Delabrouille, N., Yèche, C., Borde, A., Le Goff, J., Rossi, G., Viel, M., …Weinberg, D. H. (2013). The one-dimensional Lyα forest power spectrum from BOSS. Astronomy and Astrophysics, 559, Article A85. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201322130

We have developed two independent methods for measuring the one-dimensional power spectrum of the transmitted flux in the Lyman-α forest. The first method is based on a Fourier transform and the second on a maximum-likelihood estimator. The two metho... Read More about The one-dimensional Lyα forest power spectrum from BOSS.

Large (∼400 arcmin2) field... Read More about Searching for large-scale structures around high-redshift radio galaxies with Herschel.

The relationship between MEG and fMRI (2013)
Journal Article

In recent years functional neuroimaging techniques such as fMRI, MEG, EEG and PET have provided researchers with a wealth of information on human brain function. However none of these modalities can measure directly either the neuro-electrical or ne... Read More about The relationship between MEG and fMRI.

Ensemble fermions for electroweak dynamics and the fermion preheating temperature (2013)
Journal Article
Mou, Z., Tranberg, A., & Saffin, P. M. (2013). Ensemble fermions for electroweak dynamics and the fermion preheating temperature. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013(11), https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP11%282013%29097

We refine the implementation of ensemble fermions for the electroweak sector of the Standard Model, introduced previously. We consider the behavior of different observables as the size of the ensemble is increased and show that the dynamics converges...
