Journal Article
Hunt, L. J., Pimbblet, K. A., & Benoit, D. M. (2024). Predicting the ages of galaxies with an artificial neural network. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 529(1), 479-498. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae479

We present a new method of predicting the ages of galaxies using a machine learning (ML) algorithm with the goal of providing an alternative to traditional methods. We aim to match the ability of traditional models to predict the ages of galaxies by... Read More about Predicting the ages of galaxies with an artificial neural network.

Hyperbolic metaparticles have emerged as the next step in metamaterial applications, providing tunable electromagnetic properties on demand. However, coupling of optical modes in hyperbolic meta-antennas has not been explored. Here, we present in det... Read More about Magnetic Mode Coupling in Hyperbolic Bowtie Meta-Antennas.

Simulations of magnetization reversal in FM/AFM bilayers with THz frequency pulses (2023)
Journal Article

Inhomogeneous Galactic chemical evolution: modelling ultra-faint dwarf galaxies of the Large Magellanic Cloud. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 522(4), 5415-5433. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad1312

Ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs) are among the oldest and most metal-poor galaxies in the cosmos, observed to contain no gas and a high dark matter mass fraction. Understanding the chemical abundance dispersion in such extreme environments could she...

Organic copolymer lasing from single defect microcavity fabricated using laser patterning (2023)
Journal Article

Reducing the lasing threshold in optically pumped organic lasers is a necessary component of the drive to develop an organic laser diode, as this may help mitigate the losses associated with electrical contacts and charge injection. In this study we... Read More about Organic copolymer lasing from single defect microcavity fabricated using laser patterning.

Empirical constraints on the nucleosynthesis of nitrogen (2023)
Journal Article
Johnson, J. W., Weinberg, D. H., Vincenzo, F., Bird, J. C., & Griffith, E. J. (2023). Empirical constraints on the nucleosynthesis of nitrogen. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 520(1), 782-803. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad057

We derive empirical constraints on the nucleosynthetic yields of nitrogen by incorporating N enrichment into our previously developed and empirically tuned multizone galactic chemical evolution model. We adopt a metallicity-independent (‘primary’) N... Read More about Empirical constraints on the nucleosynthesis of nitrogen.
