Tuneability and criticality in a three-dimensional stacked molecular system (2016)
Journal Article
Berlie, A., Terry, I., Szablewski, M., & Giblin, S. (2016). Tuneability and criticality in a three-dimensional stacked molecular system. Physical Review B, 93(5), Article 054422. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevb.93.054422

With the changing of physical properties through chemical substitution in mind, this work shows the applicability of this approach to organic based spin-Peierls (SP) systems. To demonstrate this we have used a well known system, potassium TCNQ, that... Read More about Tuneability and criticality in a three-dimensional stacked molecular system.

We present ALMA observations of the CO(1-0) and CO(3-2) line emission tracing filaments of cold molecular gas in the central galaxy of the cluster PKS 0745-191. The total molecular gas mass of 4.6 ± 0.3 × 109 M⊙, assuming a Galactic XCO factor, is di...

The prompt atmospheric neutrino flux in the light of LHCb (2016)
Journal Article
Gauld, R., Rojo, J., Rottoli, L., Sarkar, S., & Talbert, J. (2016). The prompt atmospheric neutrino flux in the light of LHCb. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016(2), Article 130. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep02%282016%29130

The recent observation of very high energy cosmic neutrinos by IceCube heralds the beginning of neutrino astronomy. At these energies, the dominant background to the astrophysical signal is the flux of ‘prompt’ neutrinos, arising from the decay of cha...

Spectacular tails of ionized gas in the Virgo cluster galaxy NGC 4569 (2016)
Journal Article
Boselli, A., Cuillandre, J., Fossati, M., Boissier, S., Bomans, D., Consolandi, G., …Toloba, E. (2016). Spectacular tails of ionized gas in the Virgo cluster galaxy NGC 4569. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 587, Article A68. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201527795

Context. Using MegaCam at the CFHT, we obtained a deep narrow band Hα+[NII] wide-field image of NGC 4569 (M90), the brightest late-type galaxy in the Virgo cluster. The image reveals the presence of long tails of diffuse ionized gas, without any asso... Read More about Spectacular tails of ionized gas in the Virgo cluster galaxy NGC 4569.

We recall that the exclusive production of high mass objects via γγ fusion at the LHC is not strongly suppressed in comparison with inclusive γγ fusion. Therefore it may be promising to study new objects, X, produced by the γγ subprocess in experimen... Read More about Advantages of exclusiveγγproduction to probe high mass systems.
