Kaspar Causally Explains
(Springer Nature Link, 2023-02-02)The Kaspar robot has been used with great success to work as an education and social mediator with children with autism spectrum disorder. Enabling the robot to automatically generate causal explanations is key to enrich ... -
Propeller states in locally super-critical ULXs
(2023-02-01)An expected signature of the presence of neutron stars in the population of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are large scale changes in X-ray luminosity, as systems reach spin equilibrium and a propeller state ensues. ... -
JADES Imaging of GN-z11: Revealing the Morphology and Environment of a Luminous Galaxy 430 Myr after the Big Bang
(2023-07-20)We present JWST NIRCam nine-band near-infrared imaging of the luminous z = 10.6 galaxy GN-z11 from the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey of the GOODS-N field. We find a spectral energy distribution (SED) entirely ... -
Serendipitous Enhancement of the Dimensionality in Diketopyrrolopyrroles through O-Substitution
(2023-02-01)We report for the first time the crystal structure of an O-substituted diketopyrrolopyrrole and further evaluate computationally the ability of this higher-dimensionality system to act as a charge transfer mediator in ... -
Improvement of cavitation erosion resistance of structural metals by alternating magnetic field treatment
(2023-01-21)Results of cavitation erosion tests for EN8 steel, nickel-aluminium bronze (NAB), 70/30 brass and aluminium alloy AA2014-T6 following alternating magnetic field (AMF) treatment are presented. These alloys were selected ... -
Relaxed blue ellipticals: accretion-driven stellar growth is a key evolutionary channel for low mass elliptical galaxies
(2023-04-30)How elliptical galaxies form is a key question in observational cosmology. While the formation of massive ellipticals is strongly linked to mergers, the low mass (M⋆/M⊙ < 10^9.5 regime remains less well explored. In ... -

The JCMT BISTRO Survey: Studying the Complex Magnetic Field of L43
(2023-07-14)We present observations of polarized dust emission at 850 μm from the L43 molecular cloud, which sits in the Ophiuchus cloud complex. The data were taken using SCUBA-2/POL-2 on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope as a part ... -
Health-risk behaviours among people with severe mental ill health: understanding modifiable risk in the Closing the Gap Health Study
(2023-04-30)BACKGROUND: People with severe mental ill health (SMI) experience some of the largest health inequalities of any sector within society. For these inequalities to be reduced, an understanding of the behavioural determinants ... -
Profiling alveolar macrophage responses to inhaled compounds using in vitro high content image analysis
(2023-09-01)One of the main hurdles in the development of new inhaled medicines is the frequent observation of foamy macrophage (FM) responses in non-clinical studies in experimental animals, which raises safety concerns and hinders ... -
Applying Universal Principles of ‘Best Interest’: Practice Challenges across Transnational Jurisdictions, Cultural Norms, and Values
(2023-03-10)This article sets out key issues in determining and upholding the best interests of children, in need of social service support, who have family networks that span outside of the UK. These issues are then analysed against ... -
Progress in Tourism Management: Is urban tourism a paradoxical research domain? Progress since 2011 and prospects for the future
(2023-03-29)This paper reviews progress in the field of urban tourism, revisiting and challenging the validity of the paradoxes presented in the paper by Ashworth and Page (2011). To do this, the paper examines the expansion of research ... -
Cosmic evolution of radio-AGN feedback: confronting models with data
(2023-08-30)Radio-mode feedback is a key ingredient in galaxy formation and evolution models, required to reproduce the observed properties of massive galaxies in the local Universe. We study the cosmic evolution of radio-active ... -
High-Performance Memory Allocation on FPGA with reduced Internal Fragmentation : Memory Allocation on FPGA
(2023-07-07)In this paper, we present two distinct hardware dynamic memory allocation schemes that are based on the binary buddy system algorithm. Our aim is to mitigate internal fragmentation without impacting the area and performance ... -
The ionising photon production efficiency at z~6 for Lyman-alpha emitters using JEMS and MUSE
(2023-06-15)We study the ionising photon production efficiency at the end of the Epoch of Reionisation ($z \sim 5.4 - 6.6$) for a sample of 30 Lyman-$\alpha$ emitters. This is a crucial quantity to infer the ionising photon budget of ... -
Particle Acceleration and Their Escape into the Heliosphere in Solar Flares with Open Magnetic Field
(2023-07-20)Energetic particle populations in the solar corona and in the heliosphere appear to have different characteristics even when produced in the same solar flare. It is not clear what causes this difference: properties of the ... -
Effect of Magnetic Field on Vibration of Electrorheological Fluid Nanoplates with FG‑CNTRC Layers
(2023-06-24)Background: Functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composites (FG-CNTRCs) have attracted significant attention in the field of structural engineering due to their unique mechanical properties. Objective: In this ... -
Sugar Beet Root Storage Properties Are Unaffected by Cercospora Leaf Spot
(2023-06-26)Cercospora leaf spot (CLS; causal agent Cercospora beticola Sacc.) is endemic in many sugar beet production regions due to the widespread distribution of C. beticola and the inability of current management practices to ... -
