Gauss-Bonnet Holographic Superconductors (2010)
Journal Article
Barclay, L., Gregory, R., Kanno, S., & Sutcliffe, P. (2010). Gauss-Bonnet Holographic Superconductors. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2010(12), Article 29. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep12%282010%29029

We study holographic superconductors in five dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity both numerically and analytically. We find the critical temperature of the superconductor decreases as backreaction is increased, although the effect of the Gauss-... Read More about Gauss-Bonnet Holographic Superconductors.

Effect of extra dimensions on gravitational waves from cosmic strings (2010)
Journal Article
O'Callaghan, E., Chadburn, S., Geshnizjani, G., Gregory, R., & Zavala, I. (2010). Effect of extra dimensions on gravitational waves from cosmic strings. Physical Review Letters, 105(8), Article 081602. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.105.081602

We show how the motion of cosmic superstrings in extra dimensions can modify the gravitational wave signal from cusps. Additional dimensions both round off cusps, as well as reducing the probability of their formation, and thus give a significant dim...
