Journal Article
Broxterman, J. C., Schaller, M., Schaye, J., Hoekstra, H., Kuijken, K., Helly, J. C., Kugel, R., Braspenning, J., Elbers, W., Frenk, C. S., Kwan, J., McCarthy, I. G., Salcido, J., van Daalen, M. P., & Vandenbroucke, B. (2024). The FLAMINGO project: baryonic impact on weak gravitational lensing convergence peak counts. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 529(3), 2309-2326. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae698

Weak gravitational lensing convergence peaks, the local maxima in weak lensing convergence maps, have been shown to contain valuable cosmological information complementary to commonly used two-point statistics. To exploit the full power of weak lensi... Read More about The FLAMINGO project: baryonic impact on weak gravitational lensing convergence peak counts.

Quantifying azimuthal variations within the interstellar medium of z ~ 0 spiral galaxies with the TYPHOON survey (2024)
Journal Article
Chen, Q.-H., Grasha, K., Battisti, A. J., Wisnioski, E., Li, Z., Park, H.-J., Groves, B., Torrey, P., Mendel, T., Madore, B. F., Seibert, M., Sextl, E., Garcia, A. M., Rich, J. A., Beaton, R. L., & Kewley, L. J. (2024). Quantifying azimuthal variations within the interstellar medium of z ~ 0 spiral galaxies with the TYPHOON survey. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 534(1), 883-901. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae2119

Most star formation in the local Universe occurs in spiral galaxies, but their origin remains an unanswered question. Various theories have been proposed to explain the development of spiral arms, each predicting different spatial distributions of th...

Photospheric signatures of CME onset (2024)
Journal Article
Aslam, O. P. M., MacTaggart, D., Williams, T., Fletcher, L., & Romano, P. (2024). Photospheric signatures of CME onset. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 534(1), 444-454. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae2110

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are solar eruptions that involve large-scale changes to the magnetic topology of an active region. There exists a range of models for CME onset which are based on twisted or sheared magnetic field above a polarity invers... Read More about Photospheric signatures of CME onset.
