Journal Article
Barnes, D., Kay, S., Henson, M., McCarthy, I., Schaye, J., & Jenkins, A. (2017). The redshift evolution of massive galaxy clusters in the MACSIS simulations. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 465(1), 213-233. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stw2722

We present the MAssive ClusterS and Intercluster Structures (MACSIS) project, a suite of 390 clusters simulated with baryonic physics that yields realistic massive galaxy clusters capable of matching a wide range of observed properties. MACSIS extend... Read More about The redshift evolution of massive galaxy clusters in the MACSIS simulations.

The optical properties of phenazine derivative probe solutions involving intersystem crossing from singlet to triplet states were investigated by time resolved spectroscopy. The room temperature phosphorescence emission presented different time respo...

Higgs production in bottom-quark fusion: Matching beyond leading order (2016)
Journal Article
Forte, S., Napoletano, D., & Ubiali, M. (2016). Higgs production in bottom-quark fusion: Matching beyond leading order. Physics Letters B, 763, 190-196. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2016.10.040

We compute the total cross-section for Higgs boson production in bottom-quark fusion using the so-called FONLL method for the matching of a scheme in which the b-quark is treated as a massless parton to that in which it is treated as a massive final-...

Grand-canonical condensate fluctuations in weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensates of light (2016)
Journal Article
Weiss, C., & Tempere, J. (2016). Grand-canonical condensate fluctuations in weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensates of light. Physical Review E, 94(4), Article 042124. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreve.94.042124

Grand-canonical fluctuations of Bose-Einstein condensates of light are accessible to state-of-the-art experiments [J. Schmitt et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 030401 (2014).]. We phenomenologically describe these fluctuations by using the grand-canonica... Read More about Grand-canonical condensate fluctuations in weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensates of light.

Substructure and galaxy formation in the Copernicus Complexio warm dark matter simulations (2016)

We use the Copernicus Complexio (coco) high-resolution N-body simulations to investigate differences in the properties of small-scale structures in the standard cold dark matter (CDM) model and in a model with a cutoff in the initial power spectrum o...

Size matters: abundance matching, galaxy sizes, and the Tully-Fisher relation in EAGLE (2016)
Journal Article
Ferrero, I., Navarro, J., Abadi, M., Sales, L., Bower, R., Crain, R., …Theuns, T. (2017). Size matters: abundance matching, galaxy sizes, and the Tully-Fisher relation in EAGLE. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 464(4), 4736-4746. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stw2691

The Tully–Fisher relation (TFR) links the stellar mass of a disc galaxy, Mstr, to its rotation speed: it is well approximated by a power law, shows little scatter, and evolves weakly with redshift. The relation has been interpreted as reflecting the... Read More about Size matters: abundance matching, galaxy sizes, and the Tully-Fisher relation in EAGLE.

Turbulence velocity profiling for high sensitivity and vertical-resolution atmospheric characterization with Stereo-SCIDAR (2016)
Journal Article

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 464(4), 3998-4007. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stw2685

As telescopes become larger, into the era of ∼40 m Extremely Large Telescopes, the high-resolution vertical profile of the optical turbulence strength is critical for the validation, optimization and operation of optical systems. The velocity of atmo... Read More about Turbulence velocity profiling for high sensitivity and vertical-resolution atmospheric characterization with Stereo-SCIDAR.

We report the discovery and analysis of the most metal-poor damped Lyman-alpha (DLA) system currently known, which also displays the Lyman series absorption lines of neutral deuterium. The average [O/H] abundance of this system is [O/H] = -2.804 +/-... Read More about The Primordial Deuterium Abundance of the Most Metal-poor Damped Lyman-alpha System.
