Testing WMAP data via Planck radio and SZ catalogues (2013)
Journal Article
Whitbourn, J., Shanks, T., & Sawangwit, U. (2013). Testing WMAP data via Planck radio and SZ catalogues. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 437(1), 622-640. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stt1912

The prime evidence underpinning the standard Λ cold dark matter cosmological model is the cosmic microwave background (CMB) power spectrum as observed by Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) and other microwave experiments. But Sawangwit and S... Read More about Testing WMAP data via Planck radio and SZ catalogues.

Stacked reverberation mapping (2013)
Journal Article
Fine, S., Shanks, T., Green, P., Kelly, B., Croom, S., Webster, R., …Price, P. (2013). Stacked reverberation mapping. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 434(1), L16-L20. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnrasl/slt069

Over the past 20 years reverberation mapping has proved one of the most successful techniques for studying the local (<1 pc) environment of supermassive black holes that drive active galactic nuclei. Key successes of reverberation mapping have been d... Read More about Stacked reverberation mapping.

The VLT LBG Redshift Survey - III. The clustering and dynamics of Lyman-break galaxies at z~3 (2013)
Journal Article
Bielby, R., Hill, M., Shanks, T., Crighton, N., Infante, L., Bornancini, C., …Weilbacher, P. (2013). The VLT LBG Redshift Survey - III. The clustering and dynamics of Lyman-break galaxies at z~3. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 430(1), 425-449. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sts639

We present a catalogue of 2135 galaxy redshifts from the VLT LBG Redshift Survey (VLRS), a spectroscopic survey of z ≈ 3 galaxies in wide fields centred on background quasi-stellar objects. We have used deep optical imaging to select galaxies via the... Read More about The VLT LBG Redshift Survey - III. The clustering and dynamics of Lyman-break galaxies at z~3.

Clustering analysis of high-redshift luminous red galaxies in Stripe 82 (2013)
Journal Article
Nikoloudakis, N., Shanks, T., & Sawangwit, U. (2013). Clustering analysis of high-redshift luminous red galaxies in Stripe 82. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 429(3), 2032-2051. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sts475

We present a clustering analysis of luminous red galaxies (LRGs) in Stripe 82 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We study the angular two-point autocorrelation function, w(θ), of a selected sample of over 130 000 LRG candidates via colour-cut...

Sub-millimetre source identifications and the microjansky source population at 8.4 GHz in the William Herschel Deep Field (2013)
Journal Article
Heywood, I., Bielby, R., Hill, M., Metcalfe, N., Rawlings, S., Shanks, T., & Smirnov, O. (2013). Sub-millimetre source identifications and the microjansky source population at 8.4 GHz in the William Herschel Deep Field. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 428(2), 935-951. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sts046

Sub-millimetre observations of the William Herschel Deep Field (WHDF) using the Large Apex Bolometer Camera (LABOCA) revealed possible sub-mm counterparts for two X-ray-absorbed quasars. The primary aim here is to exploit Expanded Very Large Array (E...
