On the one hand, Andriot and Roupec (Fortsch Phys, 1800105, 2019) proposed an alternative refined de Sitter conjecture, which gives a natural condition on a combination of the first and second derivatives of the scalar potential (Andriot and Roupec 2...

On the Use of Carbon Cables from Plastic Solvent Combinations of Polystyrene and Toluene in Carbon Nanotube Synthesis (2021)
Journal Article
Orbaek White, A., Hedayati, A., Yick, T., Shenoy Gangoli, V., Niu, Y., Lethbridge, S., …E. Palmer, R. (2022). On the Use of Carbon Cables from Plastic Solvent Combinations of Polystyrene and Toluene in Carbon Nanotube Synthesis. Nanomaterials, 12(1), Article 9. https://doi.org/10.3390/nano12010009

For every three people on the planet, there are approximately two Tonnes (Te) of plastic waste. We show that carbon recovery from polystyrene (PS) plastic is enhanced by the coaddition of solvents to grow carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by liquid injection c...

SELCIE: a tool for investigating the chameleon field of arbitrary sources (2021)
Journal Article
Briddon, C., Burrage, C., Moss, A., & Tamosiunas, A. (2021). SELCIE: a tool for investigating the chameleon field of arbitrary sources. Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2021(12), 1-24. https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2021/12/043

The chameleon model is a modified gravity theory that introduces an additional scalar field that couples to matter through a conformal coupling. This `chameleon field' possesses a screening mechanism through a nonlinear self-interaction term which al...

Topographic Control of Order in Quasi-2D Granular Phase Transitions (2021)
Journal Article
Downs, J. G., Smith, N. D., Mandadapu, K. K., Garrahan, J. P., & Smith, M. I. (2021). Topographic Control of Order in Quasi-2D Granular Phase Transitions. Physical Review Letters, 127(26), Article 268002. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.127.268002

We experimentally investigate the nature of 2D phase transitions in a quasi-2D granular fluid. Using a surface decorated with periodically spaced dimples we observe interfacial tension between coexisting granular liquid and crystal phases. Measuremen...

Optically Gated Terahertz-Field-Driven Switching of Antiferromagnetic CuMnAs (2021)
Journal Article

We show scalable and complete suppression of the recently reported terahertz-pulse-induced switching between different resistance states of antiferromagnetic CuMnAs thin films by ultrafast gating. The gating functionality is achieved by an optically... Read More about Optically Gated Terahertz-Field-Driven Switching of Antiferromagnetic CuMnAs.

Structure of the human Ccr4-Not nuclease module using X-ray crystallography and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy distance measurements (2021)
Journal Article

Regulated degradation of mature, cytoplasmic mRNA is a key step in eukaryotic gene regulation. This process is typically initiated by the recruitment of deadenylase enzymes by cis-acting elements in the 3' untranslated region resulting in the shorten...

BCS-BEC crossover of ultracold ions driven by density-dependent short-range interactions in a quantum plasma (2021)
Journal Article

We study theoretically a Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) to Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) crossover of two-species ions in a three-dimensional quantum plasma at zero temperature. Central to this crossover is an effective short-ranged, attractive int...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Graph theoretic analysis of structural covariance networks (SCN) provides an assessment of brain organization that has not yet been applied to alcohol dependence (AD). We estimated whether SCN differences are present in adults wi... Read More about Brain structural covariance network differences in adults with alcohol dependence and heavy-drinking adolescents.

A multi-scale integrated assessment model to support urban sustainability (2021)

Tools purposed towards supporting the transition to more sustainable urban futures typically focus on specific phenomena at the local level. Whilst such approaches remain valuable, there is a need to complement this micro approach with broader integr...
