Scaling dimensions of higher-charge monopoles at deconfined critical points (2015)
Journal Article
Sreejith, G., & Powell, S. (2015). Scaling dimensions of higher-charge monopoles at deconfined critical points. Physical Review B, 92(18), Article 184413. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.92.184413

The classical cubic dimer model has a columnar ordering transition that is continuous and described by a critical Anderson–Higgs theory containing an SU(2)-symmetric complex field minimally coupled to a noncompact U(1) gauge theory. Defects in the di... Read More about Scaling dimensions of higher-charge monopoles at deconfined critical points.

Emergent devil's staircase without particle-hole symmetry in Rydberg quantum gases with competing attractive and repulsive interactions (2015)
Journal Article
Lan, Z., Minář, J., Levi, E., Li, W., & Lesanovsky, I. (2015). Emergent devil's staircase without particle-hole symmetry in Rydberg quantum gases with competing attractive and repulsive interactions. Physical Review Letters, 115, Article 203001. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.115.203001

The devil's staircase is a fractal structure that characterizes the ground state of one-dimensional classical lattice gases with long-range repulsive convex interactions. Its plateaus mark regions of stability for specific filling fractions which are...

Mechanism of periodic height variations along self-aligned VLS-grown planar nanostructures (2015)
Journal Article
Steele, J., Horvat, J., Lewis, R., Henini, M., Fan, D., Mazur, Y., Dorogan, V., Grant, P., Yu, S., & Salamo, G. (in press). Mechanism of periodic height variations along self-aligned VLS-grown planar nanostructures. Nanoscale, 7(48), https://doi.org/10.1039/c5nr06676j

In this study we report in-plane nanotracks produced by molecular-beam-epitaxy (MBE) exhibiting lateral self-assembly and unusual periodic and out-of-phase height variations across their growth axes. The nanotracks are synthesized using bismuth segre... Read More about Mechanism of periodic height variations along self-aligned VLS-grown planar nanostructures.

Evolution of the brightest cluster galaxies: the influence of morphology, stellar mass and environment (2015)
Journal Article

Using a sample of 425 nearby brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) from von der Linden et al., we study the relationship between their internal properties (stellar masses, structural parameters and morphologies) and their environment. More massive BCGs t... Read More about Evolution of the brightest cluster galaxies: the influence of morphology, stellar mass and environment.

Linking the structural properties of galaxies and their star formation histories with STAGES (2015)
Journal Article

We study the links between star formation history and structure for a large mass-selected galaxy sample at 0.05 ≤ zphot ≤ 0.30. The galaxies inhabit a very broad range of environments, from cluster cores to the field. Using Hubble Space Telescope (HS...

A class of multilayered functional materials has recently emerged in which the component atomic layers are held together by weak van der Waals forces that preserve the structural integrity and physical properties of each layer. An exemplar of such a... Read More about Resonant tunnelling between the chiral Landau states of twisted graphene lattices.
