A systematic approach to Kähler moduli stabilisation (2020)
Journal Article
AbdusSalam, S., Abel, S., Cicoli, M., Quevedo, F., & Shukla, P. (2020). A systematic approach to Kähler moduli stabilisation. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020(8), Article 047. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep08%282020%29047

Achieving full moduli stabilisation in type IIB string compactifications for generic Calabi-Yau threefolds with hundreds of Kähler moduli is notoriously hard. This is due not just to the very fast increase of the computational complexity with the num... Read More about A systematic approach to Kähler moduli stabilisation.

Jordan – Cattaneo waves: Analogues of compressible flow (2020)
Journal Article
Straughan, B. (2020). Jordan – Cattaneo waves: Analogues of compressible flow. Wave Motion, 98, Article 102637. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wavemoti.2020.102637

We review work of Jordan on a hyperbolic variant of the Fisher - KPP equation, where a shock solution is found and the amplitude is calculated exactly. The Jordan procedure is extended to a hyperbolic variant of the Chafee – Infante equation. Extensi... Read More about Jordan – Cattaneo waves: Analogues of compressible flow.

Nonlinear Stability for Thermal Convection in a Brinkman Porous Material with Viscous Dissipation (2020)

We investigate nonlinear stability in a model for thermal convection in a saturated porous material using Brinkman theory, taking into account viscous dissipation effects. There are (at least) two models for viscous dissipation available, and we incl... Read More about Nonlinear Stability for Thermal Convection in a Brinkman Porous Material with Viscous Dissipation.

Morphology control of nickel nanoparticles prepared in situ within silica aerogels produced by novel ambient pressure drying (2020)
Journal Article

Morphology control of nickel nanoparticles prepared in situ within silica aerogels produced by novel ambient pressure drying. Scientific Reports, 10(1), Article 11743. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-68510-4

Silica aerogels are low density solids with high surface area and high porosity which are ideal supports for catalyst materials. The main challenge in aerogel production is the drying process, which must remove liquid from the pores of the wet gel wh...

We study black hole solutions of D = 4 Einstein-Maxwell theory coupled to a charged scalar field that are holographically dual to a d = 3 conformal field theory with a non-vanishing chemical potential and constant magnetic field. We numerically const... Read More about Holographic Abrikosov lattices.

Encapsulated Nanodroplet Crystallization of Organic-Soluble Small Molecules (2020)

Small molecules can form crystalline solids, in which individual molecules pack together into ordered three-dimensional arrays. Once a suitable crystal is grown, the packing and atomic connectivity of the constituent molecules can be studied by X-ray...

Alexandrov spaces are complete length spaces with a lower curvature bound in the triangle comparison sense. When they are equipped with an effective isometric action of a compact Lie group with one-dimensional orbit space, they are said to be of coho...

A thring is a recent addition to the zoo of spiral wave phenomena found in excitable media and consists of a scroll ring that is threaded by a pair of counter-rotating scroll waves. This arrangement behaves as a particle that swims through the medium... Read More about Colonies of threaded rings in excitable media.

Nonparametric predictive inference bootstrap with application to reproducibility of the two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test (2020)
Journal Article
