Collisions of electrons with interstellar grains (2024)
Journal Article
Flower, D. R. (2024). Collisions of electrons with interstellar grains. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 529(4), 3284-3288. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae678

We have computed cross-sections for elastic and inelastic scattering of electrons on small grains at low-collision energies. Significant differences are again found between the results obtained in the presence and the absence of a ‘permanent’ grain d... Read More about Collisions of electrons with interstellar grains.

PATTERNS OF SOCIAL CARE USE WITHIN THE OLDER POPULATION: WHAT CAN WE LEARN FROM ROUTINELY COLLECTED DATA? (2023)
Journal Article
Brotherhood, K., Hanratty, B., Spiers, G., Caiado, C., & Newton, J. (2023). PATTERNS OF SOCIAL CARE USE WITHIN THE OLDER POPULATION: WHAT CAN WE LEARN FROM ROUTINELY COLLECTED DATA?. Innovation in Aging, 7(Supplement_1), 707-707. https://doi.org/10.1093/geroni/igad104.2294

Research with routinely collected social care data has untapped potential to inform new care delivery approaches and techniques. To identify opportunities for service improvement and enhance our understanding of care pathways experienced by the older...

Predicting the XRISM dark matter decay signal in the Milky Way halo (2024)
Journal Article
Lovell, M. R. (2024). Predicting the XRISM dark matter decay signal in the Milky Way halo. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 529(4), 4050-4055. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae775

Dark matter may be detected in X-ray decay, including from the decay of the dark matter particles that make up the Milky Way (MW) halo. We use a range of density profiles to compute X-ray line intensity profiles, with a focus on the resonantly produc...

Spatial migration of temporal earthquake clusters driven by the transfer of differential stress between neighbouring fault/shear-zone structures (2024)
Journal Article
Roberts, G., Sgambato, C., Mildon, Z., Iezzi, F., Beck, J., Robertson, J., …Mitchell, S. (2024). Spatial migration of temporal earthquake clusters driven by the transfer of differential stress between neighbouring fault/shear-zone structures. Journal of Structural Geology, 181, Article 105096. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsg.2024.105096

Uncertainty concerning the processes responsible for slip-rate fluctuations associated with temporal clustering of surface faulting earthquakes is a fundamental, unresolved issue in tectonics, because strain-rates accommodated by fault/shear-zone str...

A new test of gravity – I. Introduction to the method (2024)
Journal Article
Armijo, J., Baugh, C. M., Norberg, P., & Padilla, N. D. (2024). A new test of gravity – I. Introduction to the method. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 529(3), 2866-2876. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae719

We introduce a new scheme based on the marked correlation function to probe gravity using the large-scale structure of the Universe. We illustrate our approach by applying it to simulations of the metric-variation f(R) modified gravity theory and gen... Read More about A new test of gravity – I. Introduction to the method.
