The kinematic dipole in galaxy redshift surveys
(IOP Publishing, 2018)
In the concordance model of the Universe, the matter distribution { as observed in galaxy number
counts or the intensity of line emission (such as the 21cm line of neutral hydrogen) - should have
a kinematic dipole due ...
Mining the Herschel-Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey: submillimetre-selected blazars in equatorial fields
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
The Herschel-Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey (H-ATLAS) provides an unprecedented
opportunity to search for blazars at sub-mm wavelengths. We cross-matched the Faint
Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-cm (FIRST) ...
MUFASA: The strength and evolution of galaxy conformity in various tracers
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
We investigate galaxy conformity using the Mufasa cosmological hydrodynamical
simulation. We show a bimodal distribution in galaxy colour with radius, albeit
with too many low-mass quenched satellite galaxies compared ...
Investigation of excited 0+ states in 160Er populated via the (p, t) two-neutron transfer reaction
(EDP Sciences, 2018)
Many efforts have been made in nuclear structure physics to interpret the nature of low-lying excited 0+ states in well-deformed rare-earth nuclei. However, one of the difficulties in resolving the nature of these states ...
Self-catalytic growth of tin oxide nanowires by chemical vapor deposition process
(Hindawi, 2013)
We report on the synthesis of tin oxide (SnO2) nanowires by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process. Commercially bought
SnO nanopowders were vaporized at 1050∘C for 30 minutes with argon gas continuously passing through ...
Gaia Data Release 1. Open cluster astrometry: performance, limitations, and future prospects
(EDP Sciences, 2017)
CONTEXT: The first Gaia Data Release contains the Tycho-Gaia Astrometric Solution (TGAS). This is a subset of about 2 million stars for which,
besides the position and photometry, the proper motion and parallax are ...
Aligned metal absorbers and the ultraviolet background at the end of reionization
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
We use observations of spatially-aligned C ii, C iv, Si ii, Si iv, and O i absorbers to probe the
slope and intensity of the ultraviolet background (UVB) at z ∼ 6. We accom- plish this by comparing
observations with ...
Diurnal variations in global Joule heating morphology and magnitude due to neutral winds.
(Wiley, 2018)
In the polar ionosphere, variations in Joule heating are significantly controlled by changes in
plasma convection, such as that brought about by changes in the interplanetary magnetic field. However,
another important ...
Calibrating the James Webb Space telescope filters as star formation rate indicators
(American Astronomical Society, 2018)
We have calibrated the 6.5m James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) mid-infrared (MIR) filters as star formation rate
(SFR) indicators, using JWST photometry synthesized from Spitzer spectra of 49 low-redshift galaxies, which ...
A framework for assessing the performance of pulsar search pipelines
(Oxford Unviersity Press, 2016)
In this paper, we present a framework for assessing the effect of non-stationary Gaussian noise and radio frequency interference (RFI) on the signal to noise ratio, the
number of false positives detected per true positive ...
