Journal Article
Palosz, W., Grasza, K., Durose, K., Halliday, D., Boyall, N., Dudley, M., …Cai, L. (2003). The effect of the wall contact and post-growth cool-down on defects in CdTe crystals grown by 'contactless' physical vapour transport. Journal of Crystal Growth, 254(3-4), 316-328. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0022-0248%2803%2901183-7

A series of cadmium telluride crystals grown by physical vapour transport without contact with the ampoule walls and cooled at different rates were characterized using synchrotron X-ray topography, photoluminescence, and chemical etching. Strain from... Read More about The effect of the wall contact and post-growth cool-down on defects in CdTe crystals grown by 'contactless' physical vapour transport.

Simulations of galaxy formation in a Λ cold dark matter universe. I. Dynamical and photometric properties of a simulated disk galaxy (2003)
Journal Article
Abadi, M., Navarro, J., Steinmetz, M., & Eke, V. (2003). Simulations of galaxy formation in a Λ cold dark matter universe. I. Dynamical and photometric properties of a simulated disk galaxy. Astrophysical Journal, 591(2), 499-514. https://doi.org/10.1086/375512

We present a detailed analysis of the dynamical and photometric properties of a disk galaxy simulated in the cold dark matter (CDM) cosmogony. The galaxy is assembled through a number of high-redshift mergers followed by a period of quiescent accreti... Read More about Simulations of galaxy formation in a Λ cold dark matter universe. I.

The unusual supernova remnant surrounding the ultraluminous X-ray source IC 342 X-1 (2003)
Journal Article
Roberts, T., Goad, M., Ward, M., & Warwick, R. (2003). The unusual supernova remnant surrounding the ultraluminous X-ray source IC 342 X-1. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 342(3), 709-714. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-8711.2003.06593.x

We report the results of an observation of a large-diameter (110 pc) supernova remnant (SNR) found to encircle the position of the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) IC 342 X-1. The inferred initial energy input to the SNR is at least 2-3 times greater... Read More about The unusual supernova remnant surrounding the ultraluminous X-ray source IC 342 X-1.

Toric duality, Seiberg duality and Picard-Lefschetz transformations (2003)
Journal Article
Franco, S., & Hanany, A. (2003). Toric duality, Seiberg duality and Picard-Lefschetz transformations. Fortschritte der Physik, 51(7-8), 738-744. https://doi.org/10.1002/prop.200310091

Toric Duality arises as an ambiguity in computing the quiver gauge theory living on a D3-brane which probes a toric singularity. It is reviewed how, in simple cases Toric Duality is Seiberg Duality. The set of all Seiberg Dualities on a single node i... Read More about Toric duality, Seiberg duality and Picard-Lefschetz transformations.

Soliton-sound interactions in quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates (2003)
Journal Article
Parker, N., Proukakis, N., Leadbeater, M., & Adams, C. (2003). Soliton-sound interactions in quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates. Physical Review Letters, 90(22), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.90.220401

Longitudinal confinement of dark solitons in quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates leads to sound emission and reabsorption.We perform quantitative studies of the dynamics of a soliton oscillating in a tight dimple trap, embedded in a weake...

Uncertainties of predictions from parton distributions I: experimental errors (2003)
Journal Article
Martin, A., Roberts, R., Stirling, W., & Thorne, R. (2003). Uncertainties of predictions from parton distributions I: experimental errors. The European Physical Journal C, 28(4), 455-473. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s2003-01196-2

We determine the uncertainties on observables arising from the errors on the experimental data that are fitted in the global MRST2001 parton analysis. By diagonalizing the error matrix we produce sets of partons suitable for use within the framework... Read More about Uncertainties of predictions from parton distributions I: experimental errors.

Measuring σ₈ with Cluster Lensing: Biases from Unrelaxed Clusters. (2003)
Journal Article
Smith, G. P., Edge, A. C., Eke, V. R., Nichol, R. C., Smail, I., & Kneib, J. (2003). Measuring σ₈ with Cluster Lensing: Biases from Unrelaxed Clusters. Astrophysical Journal, 590(2), L79-L82. https://doi.org/10.1086/376747

We use gravitational lens models and X-ray spectral analysis of 10 X-ray-luminous galaxy clusters at z sime 0.2 to study the impact of cluster substructure on attempts to normalize the matter power spectrum. We estimate that unrelaxed clusters are 30... Read More about Measuring σ₈ with Cluster Lensing: Biases from Unrelaxed Clusters..
