The e-MERGE Survey (e-MERLIN Galaxy Evolution Survey): Overview and survey description
(Oxford University Press, 2020)We present an overview and description of the e-MERGE Survey (e-MERLIN Galaxy Evolution Survey) Data Release 1 (DR1), a large program of high-resolution 1.5-GHz radio observations of the GOODS-N field comprising ∼140 h of ... -
EC 10246-2707: a new eclipsing sdB + M dwarf binary⋆
(OUP, 2013)We announce the discovery of a new eclipsing hot subdwarf B + M dwarf binary, EC 10246-2707, and present multi-colour photometric and spectroscopic observations of this system. Similar to other HW Vir-type binaries, the ... -
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 ... -
Effects of p-type-metal-doping (Ba, Cs, and Y) of the compact-TiO2 electron transporting layer on the photovoltaic properties of n-i-p perovskite solar cells
(Springer, 2023)Tailoring of charge transport properties of the electron transport layer (ETL) in solution-processible solar cells is continuously addressed not only for the performance enhancements in perovskite solar cells but also in ... -
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 ... -
Electric dipole polarizability of low-lying excited states in atomic nuclei
(Institute of Physics, 2024)New equations for the electric dipole polarizability α E1 of low-lying excited states in atomic nuclei—and the related (−2) moment of the total photo-absorption cross section, σ −2—are inferred in terms of electric dipole ... -
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 ... -
ELUCID. VIII. simulating the coma galaxy cluster to calibrate model and understand feedback
(Institute of Physics, 2024)We conducted an investigation of the Coma cluster of galaxies by running a series of constrained hydrodynamic simulations with GIZMO-SIMBA and GADGET-3 based on initial conditions reconstructed from the SDSS survey volume ... -
Enabling unsupervised discovery in astronomical images through self-supervised representations
(Oxford University Press, 2024)Unsupervised learning, a branch of machine learning that can operate on unlabelled data, has proven to be a powerful tool for data exploration and discovery in astronomy. As large surveys and new telescopes drive a rapid ... -
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 ... -
Enhanced symmetry energy may bear universality of r-process abundances
(Oxford University Press, 2023)The abundances of about half of the elements heavier than iron are subtly attuned by the rapid neutron capture process or r -process, which is intimately related to the competition between neutron capture, photo-disintegration, ... -
