The KMOS AGN Survey at High redshift (KASHz): the prevalence and drivers of ionized outflows in the host galaxies of X-ray AGN (2015)
Journal Article
Harrison, C., Alexander, D., Mullaney, J., Stott, J., Swinbank, A., Arumugam, V., …Sharples, R. (2016). The KMOS AGN Survey at High redshift (KASHz): the prevalence and drivers of ionized outflows in the host galaxies of X-ray AGN. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 456(2), 1195-1220. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv2727

We present the first results from the KMOS (K-band Multi-Object Spectrograph) AGN (active galactic nuclei) Survey at High redshift (KASHz), a VLT/KMOS integral-field spectroscopic (IFS) survey of z ≳ 0.6 AGN. We present galaxy-integrated spectra of 8... Read More about The KMOS AGN Survey at High redshift (KASHz): the prevalence and drivers of ionized outflows in the host galaxies of X-ray AGN.

Inferring divertor plasma properties from hydrogen Balmer and Paschen series spectroscopy in JET-ILW (2015)
Journal Article
Lomanowski, B., Meigs, A., Sharples, R., Stamp, M., Guillemaut, C., & Contributors, J. (2015). Inferring divertor plasma properties from hydrogen Balmer and Paschen series spectroscopy in JET-ILW. Nuclear Fusion, 55(12), Article 123028. https://doi.org/10.1088/0029-5515/55/12/123028

A parametrised spectral line profile model is formulated to investigate the diagnostic scope for recovering plasma parameters from hydrogenic Balmer and Paschen series spectroscopy in the context of JET-ILW divertor plasmas. The separate treatment of... Read More about Inferring divertor plasma properties from hydrogen Balmer and Paschen series spectroscopy in JET-ILW.

Overview of MAST results (2015)
Journal Article
Chapman, I., Adamek, J., Akers, R., Allan, S., Appel, L., Asunta, O., …Upgrade Teams, M. (2015). Overview of MAST results. Nuclear Fusion, 55(10), https://doi.org/10.1088/0029-5515/55/10/104008

The Mega Ampère Spherical Tokamak (MAST) programme is strongly focused on addressing key physics issues in preparation for operation of ITER as well as providing solutions for DEMO design choices. In this regard, MAST has provided key results in unde... Read More about Overview of MAST results.

A SLUGGS and Gemini/GMOS combined study of the elliptical galaxy M60: wide-field photometry and kinematics of the globular cluster system (2015)
Journal Article
Pota, V., Brodie, J., Bridges, T., Strader, J., Romanowsky, A., Villaume, A., …Arnold, J. (2015). A SLUGGS and Gemini/GMOS combined study of the elliptical galaxy M60: wide-field photometry and kinematics of the globular cluster system. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 450(2), 1962-1983. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv677

We present new wide-field photometry and spectroscopy of the globular clusters (GCs) around NGC 4649 (M60), the third brightest galaxy in the Virgo cluster. Imaging of NGC 4649 was assembled from a recently obtained Hubble Space Telescope/Advanced Ca...

Young star clusters in the interacting galaxies of Hickson Compact Group 90 (2015)
Journal Article
Miah, J., Sharples, R., & Cho, J. (2015). Young star clusters in the interacting galaxies of Hickson Compact Group 90. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 447(4), 3639-3648. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stu2735

Deep images of Hickson Compact Group 90 (HCG 90) have been obtained using the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble Space Telescope. We report results for star clusters observed in the interacting pair of galaxies NGC 7174 and NGC 7176. We presen...
