Avila, S., Knebe, A., Pearce, F. R., Schneider, A., Srisawat, C., Thomas, P. A., Behroozi, P., Elahi, P. J., Han, J., Mao, Y.-Y., Onions, J., Rodriguez-Gomez, V., & Tweed, D. (2014). Sussing merger trees: the influence of the halo finder. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 441(4), https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stu799

Merger tree codes are routinely used to follow the growth and merger of dark matter haloes in simulations of cosmic structure formation. Whereas in Srisawat et. al. we compared the trees built using a wide variety of such codes, here we study the inf... Read More about Sussing merger trees: the influence of the halo finder.

Height dependent molecular trapping in stacked cyclic porphyrin nanorings (2014)
Journal Article

Stacked layers of cyclic porphyrin nanorings constitute nanoscale receptacles with variable height and diameter which preferentially adsorb sublimed molecules. Using scanning tunnelling microscopy we determine the filling capacity of these nanoring t... Read More about Height dependent molecular trapping in stacked cyclic porphyrin nanorings.

We investigate the relationship between colour and structure within galaxies using a large, volume-limited sample of bright, low-redshift galaxies with optical–near-infrared imaging from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly survey. We fit single-component, w... Read More about Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): the wavelength-dependent sizes and profiles of galaxies revealed by MegaMorph.

The thermal history of the intergalactic medium down to redshift z=1.5: a new curvature measurement (2014)
Journal Article

According to the photoheating model of the intergalactic medium (IGM), He ii reionization is expected to affect its thermal evolution. Evidence for additional energy injection into the IGM has been found at 3 ≲ z ≲ 4, though the evidence for the subs...
