Conical intersections in laboratory coordinates with ultracold molecules (2009)
Journal Article
Wallis, A. O. G., Gardiner, S. A., & Hutson, J. M. (2009). Conical intersections in laboratory coordinates with ultracold molecules. Physical Review Letters, 103(8), Article 083201. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.103.083201

For two states of opposite parity that cross as a function of an external magnetic field, the addition of an electric field will break the symmetry and induce an avoided crossing. A suitable arrangement of fields may be used to create a conical inter... Read More about Conical intersections in laboratory coordinates with ultracold molecules.

A Systematic Study of Variability in a Sample of Ultraluminous X-ray Sources (2009)
Journal Article
Heil, L., Vaughan, S., & Roberts, T. (2009). A Systematic Study of Variability in a Sample of Ultraluminous X-ray Sources. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 397(2), 1061-1072. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2009.15068.x

We present results from a study of short-term variability in 19 archival observations by XMM–Newton of 16 ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs). Eight observations (six sources) showed intrinsic variability with power spectra in the form of either a pow...

Micelle Formation in Block Copolymer/Homopolymer Blends: Comparison of Self-Consistent Field Theory with Experiment and Scaling Theory (2009)
Journal Article
Greenall, M. J., Buzza, D. M. A., & McLeish, T. C. (2009). Micelle Formation in Block Copolymer/Homopolymer Blends: Comparison of Self-Consistent Field Theory with Experiment and Scaling Theory. Macromolecules, 42(15), 5873-5880. https://doi.org/10.1021/ma9000594

We present a self-consistent field theory (SCFT) study of spherical micelle formation in a blend of poly(styrene−butadiene) diblocks and homopolystyrene. The micelle core radii, corona thicknesses, and critical micelle concentrations are calculated a...

90 years on - the 1919 eclipse expedition at Príncipe (2009)
Journal Article
Ellis, R., Ferreira, P. G., Massey, R., & Weszkalnys, G. (2009). 90 years on - the 1919 eclipse expedition at Príncipe. Astronomy and Geophysics, 50(4), 4.12-4.15. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1468-4004.2009.50412.x

The first experiment to observationally confirm Einstein's General Theory of Relativity was carried out in May 1919, on a Royal Astronomical Society expedition to observe a total solar eclipse. Sir Arthur Eddington travelled to Príncipe, a small isla... Read More about 90 years on - the 1919 eclipse expedition at Príncipe.
