The effect of cooperative Jahn–Teller interactions on C60− anions (2010)
Journal Article
Moujaes, E. A., & Dunn, J. L. (2010). The effect of cooperative Jahn–Teller interactions on C60− anions. Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 22(8), https://doi.org/10.1088/0953-8984/22/8/085007

Singly charged buckminsterfullerene anions, C60−, are subject to a strong intramolecular T [circle times] h Jahn–Teller (JT) effect. When such ions interact with other C60− ions in a solid through a cooperative JT effect, they will be subject to an...

A new method for conditioning stochastic groundwater flow models in fractured media (2010)
Journal Article
Milne, A., Cliffe, A., Holton, D., Houston, P., Jackson, C. P., & Joyce, S. A new method for conditioning stochastic groundwater flow models in fractured media. Manuscript submitted for publication

Many geological formations consist of crystalline rocks that have very low matrix permeability but allow flow through an interconnected network of fractures. Understanding the flow of groundwater through such rocks is important in considering disposa... Read More about A new method for conditioning stochastic groundwater flow models in fractured media.

Normed algebras of differentiable functions on compact plane sets (2010)
Journal Article

We investigate the completeness and completions of the normed algebras (D(1)(X),∥•∥) for perfect, compact plane sets X. In particular, we construct a radially self-absorbing, compact plane set X such that the normed algebra (D(1)(X),∥•∥) is not compl...
