Stark Effect Control of the Scattering Properties of Plasmonic Nanogaps (2022)
Journal Article
Pagnotto, D., Muravitskaya, A., Benoit, D. M., Bouillard, J. S. G., & Adawi, A. M. (2023). Stark Effect Control of the Scattering Properties of Plasmonic Nanogaps. ACS Applied Optical Materials, 1(1), 500–506. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsaom.2c00135

The development of actively tunable plasmonic nanostructures enables real-time and on-demand enhancement of optical signals. This is an essential requirement for a wide range of applications such as sensing and nanophotonic devices. Here we show that...

Background: In the treatment of type 2 diabetes, GLP-1 receptor agonists lower blood glucose concentrations, body weight, and have cardiovascular benefits. The efficacy and side effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists vary between people. Human pharmacoge...

Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 518(1), 1195-1213. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac3119

We present a pilot study to assess the potential of Hyper Suprime-Cam Public Data Release 2 (HSC-PDR2) images for the analysis of extended faint structures within groups of galaxies. We examine the intragroup light (IGL) of the group 400138 (Mdyn = 1...

Local Thermoelectric Response from a Single Néel Domain Wall (2022)
Journal Article
Puttock, R., Barton, C., Saugar, E., Klapetek, P., Fernández-Scarioni, A., Freitas, P., …Kazakova, O. (2022). Local Thermoelectric Response from a Single Néel Domain Wall. Science Advances, 8(47), https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.adc9798

Spatially resolved thermoelectric detection of magnetic systems provides a unique platform for the investigation of spintronic and spin caloritronic effects. Hitherto, these investigations have been resolution limited, confining analysis of the therm... Read More about Local Thermoelectric Response from a Single Néel Domain Wall.

Chemical evolution of fluorine in the Milky Way (2022)
Journal Article
Womack, K., Vincenzo, F., Gibson, B., Côté, B., Pignatari, M., Brinkman, H. E., …Karakas, A. (2023). Chemical evolution of fluorine in the Milky Way. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 518(1), 1543-1556. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac3180

Fluorine has many different potential sites and channels of production, making narrowing down a dominant site of fluorine production particularly challenging. In this work, we investigate which sources are the dominant contributors to the galactic fl... Read More about Chemical evolution of fluorine in the Milky Way.

Galaxy And Mass Assembly: galaxy morphology in the green valley, prominent rings, and looser spiral arms (2022)
Journal Article
Smith, D., Haberzettl, L., Porter, L. E., Porter-Temple, R., Henry, C. P., Holwerda, B., …Géron, T. (2022). Galaxy And Mass Assembly: galaxy morphology in the green valley, prominent rings, and looser spiral arms. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 517(3), 4575-4589. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac2258

Galaxies fall broadly into two categories: star-forming (blue) galaxies and quiescent (red) galaxies. In between, one finds the less populated 'green valley'. Some of these galaxies are suspected to be in the process of ceasing their star formation t...

Nuclear astrophysics is a field at the intersection of nuclear physics and astrophysics, which seeks to understand the nuclear engines of astronomical objects and the origin of the chemical elements. This white paper summarizes progress and status of... Read More about Horizons: nuclear astrophysics in the 2020s and beyond.

Timescales and contribution of heating and helicity effect in helicity-dependent all-optical switching (2022)
Journal Article

The heating and helicity effects induced by circularly polarized laser excitation are entangled in the helicity-dependent all-optical switching (HD-AOS), which hinders understanding the magnetization dynamics involved. Here, applying a dual-pump lase... Read More about Timescales and contribution of heating and helicity effect in helicity-dependent all-optical switching.
