The Edinburgh-Cape Blue Object Survey - III. Zone 2; galactic latitudes -30? > b > -40?
(Oxford University Press, 2013)The Edinburgh–Cape Blue Object Survey seeks to identify point sources with an ultraviolet excess. Results for zone 2 of the survey are presented here, covering that part of the South Galactic Cap between 30◦ and 40◦ from ... -
The effect of finite halo size on the clustering of neutral hydrogen.
(IOP, 2021)Post-reionisation 21cm intensity mapping experiments target the spectral line of neutral hydrogen (HI) resident in dark matter haloes. According to the halo model, these discrete haloes trace the continuous dark matter ... -
Effect of physical activity on coronary heart disease risk factors among firefighters: a scoping review protocol
(BMJ open, 2023)Introduction: Physical activity interventions have been used for various health conditions, including cardiovascular disease. However, the literature is still limited regarding the effect of physical activity on coronary ... -
Effect of the annealing atmosphere on the layer interdiffusion in Pd/Ti/Pd multilayer stacks deposited on pure Ti and Ti-alloy substrates
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)Pd(50 nm)/Ti(25 nm)/Pd(50 nm) multilayer stack has been deposited on Ti and Ti6Al4V substrates; we have studied the intermixing of layers upon annealing at the hydrogenation temperature of 550 °C, under vacuum, H/Ar gas ... -
Effect of the environment on star formation activity and stellar mass for star-forming galaxies in the COSMOS field
(2020-11)We investigate the relationship between the environment and the galaxy main sequence (the relationship between stellar mass and star formation rate), as well as the relationship between the environment and radio luminosity ... -
Effects of alkali and transition metal-doped TiO2 hole blocking layers on the perovskite solar cells obtained by a two-step sequential deposition method in air and under vacuum
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020)Planar perovskite solar cells (PPSCs) have received great attention in recent years due to their intriguing properties, which make them a good choice for photovoltaic applications. In this work, the effect of alkali and ... -
Efficient long-range active galactic nuclei (agns) feedback affects the low-redshift lyα forest
(American Astronomical Society, 2023)Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) feedback models are generally calibrated to reproduce galaxy observables such as the stellar mass function and the bimodality in galaxy colors. We use variations of the AGN feedback implementations ... -
Einstein's legacy in galaxy surveys
(Oxford University Press, 2015)Non-Gaussianity in the primordial fluctuations that seeded structure formation produces a signal in the galaxy power spectrum on very large scales. This signal contains vital information about the primordial Universe, but ... -
Electrochemical studies of Pd-based anode catalysts in alkaline medium for direct glycerol fuel cells
(MDPI, 2020)his study investigates the most effective electrocatalyst for glycerol oxidation reaction (GOR) in alkaline medium for five synthesized electrocatalysts, Pd, PdNi, PdNiO, PdMn3O4 and PdMn3O4NiO, supported on multi-walled ... -
Energy-momentum tensor and helicity for gauge fields coupled to a pseudoscalar inflaton
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)We study the energy-momentum tensor and helicity of gauge fields coupled through $g \phi F \tilde{F}/4$ to a pseudo-scalar field $\phi$ driving inflation. Under the assumption of a constant time derivative of the background ... -
Enhanced electrochemical glucose sensing performance of CuO:NiO mixed oxides thin film by plasma assisted nitrogen doping
(Elsevier, 2021)In this study plasma-assisted nitrogen doping of a CuO–NiO mixed oxide thin film was presented. The as prepared film was also applied as a glucose sensor. The nitrogen species generated during plasma ignition resulted in ... -
EPIC 216747137: a new HW Vir eclipsing binary with a massive sdOB primary and a low-mass M-dwarf companion
(Ithaca, 2020)EPIC 216747137 is a new HW Virginis system discovered by the Kepler spacecraft during its K2 ‘second life’. Like the other HW Vir systems, EPIC 216747137 is a post-common-envelope eclipsing binary consisting of a hot ... -
Estimating the electron energy and the strength of the electric field within sprites using ground-based optical data observed over South African storms
(Elsevier, 2021)We present a new simplified method to estimate the characteristic electron energy and electric field within a mesospheric transient luminous event using ground-based calibrated and filtered optical data. We assume ... -
Evaluation of probabilistic photometric redshift estimation approaches for The Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST)
(Oxford University Press, 2020-09-14)Many scientific investigations of photometric galaxy surveys require redshift estimates, whose uncertainty properties are best encapsulated by photometric redshift (photo-z) posterior probability density functions (PDFs). ... -
Evidence for cosmic acceleration with next-generation surveys: A model-independent approach
(Oxford University Press, 2020)We quantify the evidence for cosmic acceleration using simulations of H(z) measurements from SKA- and Euclid-like surveys. We perform a non-parametric reconstruction of the Hubble parameters and its derivative to obtain ... -
