Magnetic winding: what is it and what is it good for? (2020)
Journal Article
Prior, C., & MacTaggart, D. (2020). Magnetic winding: what is it and what is it good for?. Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 476(2242), Article 20200483. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2020.0483

Magnetic winding is a fundamental topological quantity that underpins magnetic helicity and measures the entanglement of magnetic field lines. Like magnetic helicity, magnetic winding is also an invariant of ideal magnetohydrodynamics. In this articl... Read More about Magnetic winding: what is it and what is it good for?.

Spatial scales and locality of magnetic helicity (2020)
Journal Article
Prior, C., Hawkes, G., & Berger, M. (2020). Spatial scales and locality of magnetic helicity. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 635, Article A95. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201936675

Context: Magnetic helicity is approximately conserved in resistive magnetohydrodynamic models. It quantifies the entanglement of the magnetic field within the plasma. The transport and removal of helicity is crucial in both dynamo development in the... Read More about Spatial scales and locality of magnetic helicity.

Obtaining Tertiary Protein Structures by the ab Initio Interpretation of Small Angle X-ray Scattering Data (2020)
Journal Article
Prior, C., Davies, O. R., Bruce, D., & Pohl, E. (2020). Obtaining Tertiary Protein Structures by the ab Initio Interpretation of Small Angle X-ray Scattering Data. Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation, 16(3), 1985-2001. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jctc.9b01010

Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is an important tool for investigating the structure of proteins in solution. We present a novel ab initio method representing polypeptide chains as discrete curves used to derive a meaningful three-dimensional mod...
