Collective behaviour is a characteristic feature in many-body systems, important for developments in fields such as magnetism, superconductivity, photonics and electronics. Recently, there has been increasing interest in the optically nonlinear respo... Read More about Sensitivity of nonlinear photoionization to resonance substructure in collective excitation.

We have studied the effects of various initial mass functions (IMFs) on the chemical evolution of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy (Sgr). In particular, we tested the effects of the integrated galactic initial mass function (IGIMF) on various predicted a... Read More about The IGIMF and other IMFs in dSphs: the case of Sagittarius.

The nature and role of the gold-krypton interactions in small neutral gold clusters (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 American Chemical Society. We investigate the nature and role of krypton embedding in small neutral gold clusters. For some of these clusters, we observe a particular site-dependent character of the Kr binding that does not completely follow t...

Simple and accurate modelling of the gravitational potential produced by thick and thin exponential discs (2015)
Journal Article
Smith, R., Flynn, C., Candlish, G. N., Fellhauer, M., & Gibson, B. K. (2015). Simple and accurate modelling of the gravitational potential produced by thick and thin exponential discs. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 448(3), 2934-2940. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv228

We present accurate models of the gravitational potential produced by a radially exponential disc mass distribution. The models are produced by combining three separate Miyamoto–Nagai discs. Such models have been used previously to model the disc of... Read More about Simple and accurate modelling of the gravitational potential produced by thick and thin exponential discs.

Letters, 800(2), L32. https://doi.org/10.1088/2041-8205/800/2/l32

We study the kinematics of a local sample of stars, located within a cylinder of 500 pc radius centered on the Sun, in the RAVE data set. We find clear asymmetries in the v R v∞ velocity distributions of thin and thick disk stars: there are more sta... Read More about The imprints of the Galactic Bar on the Thick Disk with RAVE.
