Quantum random walks using quantum accelerator modes (2006)
Journal Article
Ma, Z. -., Burnett, K., d'Arcy, M., & Gardiner, S. (2006). Quantum random walks using quantum accelerator modes. Physical Review A, 73(1), https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.73.013401

We discuss the use of high-order quantum accelerator modes to achieve an atom optical realization of a biased quantum random walk. We first discuss how one can create coexistent quantum accelerator modes, and hence how momentum transfer that depends... Read More about Quantum random walks using quantum accelerator modes.

La structure iconographique d'un art rupestre est-elle une clef pour son interprétation? (2006)

Develops a method for discriminating between different social contexts in which rock art is created and applies the method to ethnographic and archaeological case studies.

NMR studies of organic polymorphs & solvates (2006)
Journal Article
Harris, R. (2006). NMR studies of organic polymorphs & solvates. Analyst, 131(3), 351-373. https://doi.org/10.1039/b516057j

This review article describes the applications of NMR to the study of polymorphs and related forms (solvates) of organic (especially pharmaceutical) compounds, for which it is of increasing academic and practical importance. The nature of the systems... Read More about NMR studies of organic polymorphs & solvates.

Discussion on development of polygonal fault systems: a test of hypotheses (2006)
Journal Article
James, D., Goulty, N., & Swarbrick, R. (2006). Discussion on development of polygonal fault systems: a test of hypotheses. Journal of the Geological Society, 163(1), 221-223. https://doi.org/10.1144/0016-764905-111

We were surprised that James should criticize a test based on field data for not bearing some relation to physical reality, but infer that this comment relates to his later assertion that the polygonal fault systems concerned are inactive. We admit t... Read More about Discussion on development of polygonal fault systems: a test of hypotheses.

Psyché ou la mondanité mise en scène (2006)
Journal Article
Rollin, S. (2006). Psyché ou la mondanité mise en scène. Papers on French seventeeth century literature, 33(64), 11-28

Psyché appears as “society life on stage” because society life serves as a reference value as well as a matrix for this drama. The play praises the beauty of appearances and an ethics of pleasure through archetypal characters whose models are taken f... Read More about Psyché ou la mondanité mise en scène.

Transcallosal inhibition across the menstrual cycle: A TMS study (2006)
Journal Article

Objective To determine if there are steroid-dependent changes in transcallosal transfer during the menstrual cycle in normal women. Methods We tested 13 normally cycling women during the menstrual, follicular and midluteal phases. Blood levels of est...

Enhanced THz transmission apertures through sub-wavelength annular apertures (2006)
Journal Article
Gallant, A., Levitt, J., Kaliteevski, M., Wood, D., Petty, M., Abram, R., …Chamberlain, J. (2006). Enhanced THz transmission apertures through sub-wavelength annular apertures. Proceedings of SPIE, 6323, https://doi.org/10.1117/12.680552

We report on the development of a surface micromachined process for the fabrication of coaxial apertures surrounded by periodic grooves. The process uses a combination of copper electroforming and the negative epoxy based resist, SU8, as a thin flexi...

Variability in North Atlantic marine radiocarbon reservoir effects at c.1000 AD (2006)
Journal Article
Ascough, P., Cook, G., Church, M., Dugmore, A., Arge, S., & McGovern, T. (2006). Variability in North Atlantic marine radiocarbon reservoir effects at c.1000 AD. Holocene, 16(1), 131-136. https://doi.org/10.1191/0959683606hl913rr

14C age measurements made on samples from three archaeological sites located on North Atlantic coasts were used to investigate the marine reservoir effect (MRE) at c.1000 AD. This is an important period within human cultural and paleoenvironmental re... Read More about Variability in North Atlantic marine radiocarbon reservoir effects at c.1000 AD.

Stable isotope palaeodiet study of humans and fauna from the multi-period (Iron Age, Viking and Late Medieval) site of Newark Bay, Orkney (2006)
Journal Article

We report here on stable carbon and nitrogen isotope measurements of human and faunal bone collagen from the Iron Age, Viking Age, and Late Medieval site of Newark Bay, Orkney, Scotland. We found a wide range of results for humans in both δ13C (−15.4...

Consolidation, reconstruction and the interpretation of megalithic monuments (2006)
Journal Article
Scarre, C. (2006). Consolidation, reconstruction and the interpretation of megalithic monuments. Arkeos perspectivas em diálogo, 16, 13-44

Megalithic monuments are visible and enduring marks upon the landscape. From this it follows that the archaeologist who excavates one cannot simply close the project by backfilling the trenches and returning the site to arable or pasture: the preserv...

Agrarian spaces in Roman Italy: society, economy and Mediterranean agriculture (2006)
Journal Article
Witcher, R. (2006). Agrarian spaces in Roman Italy: society, economy and Mediterranean agriculture. Arqueología espacial, 26, 341-359

This article aims to explore some of the wealth of evidence for the diversity of agrarian landscapes in Roman Italy. It takes as it starting point, several recent contributions to the debate about the history and ecology of the Mediterranean and Rome...

Tracing the phylogeography of human populations in Britain based on 4th-11th century mtDNA genotypes (2006)
Journal Article

Some of the transitional periods of Britain during the first millennium A.D. are traditionally associated with the movement of people from continental Europe, composed largely of invading armies (e.g., the Roman, Saxon, and Viking invasions). However... Read More about Tracing the phylogeography of human populations in Britain based on 4th-11th century mtDNA genotypes.

Eye scanning of multi-element displays. I. Scanpath planning (2006)

We recorded oculomotor scanpaths in a task that required individuals to scan through displays consisting of a small number(between 3 and 12) of near-identical items. The task required each item to be fixated at least once and our objective was to exp... Read More about Eye scanning of multi-element displays. I. Scanpath planning.
