Black hole masses, accretion rates and hot- and cold-mode accretion in radio galaxies at z ~ 1
(2015-02-21)Understanding the evolution of accretion activity is fundamental to our understanding of how galaxies form and evolve over the history of the Universe. We analyse a complete sample of 27 radio galaxies which includes both ... -
Black Lives Matter in higher education: conversations about race to transform the lived experience of Black (African-Caribbean) staff in UK universities
(2023-04-28)Academia in the UK is diminished by a lack of representation of academics from Black (African-Caribbean), Asian and South-East Asian communities. Based on data for 2019–20, only 18 per cent of academic staff at universities ... -

The BLAST 250 μm-selected galaxy population in GOODS-South
(2010-11-01)We identify and investigate the nature of the 20 brightest 250 μm sources detected by the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimetre Telescope (BLAST) within the central 150 arcmin of the Great Observatories Origins Deep ... -
BLAST : the far-infrared/radio correlation in distant galaxies
(2010)We investigate the correlation between far-infrared (FIR) and radio luminosities in distant galaxies, a lynchpin of modern astronomy. We use data from the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimetre Telescope (BLAST), ... -
Blazars in the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey First Data Release
(2018-11-19)Historically, the blazar population has been poorly understood at low frequencies because survey sensitivity and angular resolution limitations have made it difficult to identify megahertz counterparts. We used the LOFAR ... -
