H-ATLAS/GAMA: quantifying the morphological evolution of the galaxy population using cosmic calorimetry (2015)
Journal Article

Using results from the Herschel Astrophysical Terrahertz Large-Area Survey (H-ATLAS) and the Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) project, we show that, for galaxy masses above ≃ 108 M⊙, 51 per cent of the stellar mass-density in the local Universe is in...

The SLUGGS survey: chromodynamical modelling of the lenticular galaxy NGC 1023 (2015)
Journal Article

Globular clusters (GCs) can be considered discrete, long-lived, dynamical tracers that retain crucial information about the assembly history of their parent galaxy. In this paper, we present a new catalogue of GC velocities and colours for the lentic... Read More about The SLUGGS survey: chromodynamical modelling of the lenticular galaxy NGC 1023.

Effect of head pitch and roll orientations on magnetically induced vertigo (2015)
Journal Article

High strength static magnetic fields are known to induce vertigo, believed to be via stimulation of the vestibular system. The leading hypothesis (Lorentz forces) predicts that the induced vertigo should depend on the orientation of the magnetic fiel...

Self-similar non-equilibrium dynamics of a many-body system with power-law interactions (2015)
Journal Article

The influence of power-law interactions on the dynamics of many-body systems far from equilibrium is much less explored than their effect on static and thermodynamic properties. To gain insight into this problem we introduce and analyze here an out-o... Read More about Self-similar non-equilibrium dynamics of a many-body system with power-law interactions.

Self-consistent solitons for vacuum decay in radiatively generated potentials (2015)
Journal Article

We use a Green’s function approach in order to develop a method for calculating the tunneling rate between radiatively generated nondegenerate vacua. We apply this to a model that exhibits spontaneous symmetry breaking via the Coleman-Weinberg mechan... Read More about Self-consistent solitons for vacuum decay in radiatively generated potentials.

Personal exposure to static and time-varying magnetic fields during MRI procedures in clinical practice in the UK (2015)
Journal Article

Background: MRI has developed into one of the most important medical diagnostic imaging modalities, but it exposes staff to static magnetic fields (SMF) when present in the vicinity of the MR system, and to radiofrequency and switched gradient electr...

Intermolecular artifacts in probe microscope images of C60 assemblies (2015)
Journal Article

Claims that dynamic force microscopy has the capability to resolve intermolecular bonds in real space continue to be vigorously debated. To date, studies have been restricted to planar molecular assemblies with small separations between neighboring m...

Symmetry-breaking in the H2@C60 endofullerene revealed by inelastic neutron scattering at low temperature (2015)
Journal Article

The fine structure of the rotational ground state of molecular ortho-hydrogen confined inside the fullerene cage C60 is investigated by inelastic neutron scattering (INS). The INS line corresponding to transitions between the three sub-levels compris...

Constraining the temperature–density relation of the intergalactic medium with the Lyman α and β forests (2015)
Journal Article

The post-reionization thermal state of the intergalactic medium is characterized by a power-law relationship between temperature and density, with a slope determined by the parameter ?. We describe a new method to measure ? using the ratio of flux cu... Read More about Constraining the temperature–density relation of the intergalactic medium with the Lyman α and β forests.

Propulsion of a two-sphere swimmer (2015)
Journal Article

We describe experiments and simulations demonstrating the propulsion of a neutrally-buoyant swimmer that consists of a pair of spheres attached by a spring, immersed in a vibrating fluid. The vibration of the fluid induces relative motion of the sphe... Read More about Propulsion of a two-sphere swimmer.

Reionisation and High-Redshift Galaxies: The View from Quasar Absorption Lines (2015)
Journal Article

Determining when and how the first galaxies reionised the intergalactic medium promises to shed light on both the nature of the first objects and the cosmic history of baryons. Towards this goal, quasar absorption lines play a unique role by probing... Read More about Reionisation and High-Redshift Galaxies: The View from Quasar Absorption Lines.

Toward printing molecular nanostructures from microstructured samples in ultrahigh vacuum (2015)
Journal Article

Transferring molecular nanostructures from one surface to another in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) by mechanical contact might be a possible route to avoid the severe limitations of in situ molecular synthesis on technologically relevant template surfaces....

Interfacial contribution to thickness dependent in-plane anisotropic magnetoresistance (2015)
Journal Article

We have studied in-plane anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) in cobalt films with overlayers having designed electrically interface transparency. With an electrically opaque cobalt/overlayer interface, the AMR ratio is shown to vary in inverse propor...

Physisorption controls the conformation and density of states of an adsorbed porphyrin (2015)
Journal Article

Conformational changes caused by adsorption can dramatically affect a molecule’s properties. Despite extensive study, however, the exact mechanisms underpinning conformational switching are often unclear. Here we show that the conformation of a proto...
