Experimental and theoretical studies into the release of blood droplets from weapon tips (2019)
Journal Article
(2019). Experimental and theoretical studies into the release of blood droplets from weapon tips. Forensic Science International, 109934 - 109934. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.forsciint.2019.109934

The formation and release under gravity of blood droplets from simulated weapon tips has been investigated experimentally and the results analysed and interpreted using established theoretical models for detached pendent drops. Droplets were produced... Read More about Experimental and theoretical studies into the release of blood droplets from weapon tips.

SuperWASP dispositions and false positive catalogue (2019)
Journal Article
Smalley, & Maxted. (2019). SuperWASP dispositions and false positive catalogue. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 4905 - 4915. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stz2064

SuperWASP, the Northern hemisphere WASP observatory, has been observing the skies from La Palma since 2004. In that time, more than 50 planets have been discovered with data contributions from SuperWASP. In the process of validating planets, many fal...

We present the discovery of four new giant planets from the Wide Angle Search for Planets-South (WASP-South), three hot Jupiters and one bloated sub-Saturn mass planet: WASP-169b, WASP-171b, WASP-175b, and WASP-182b. Besides the discovery photometry... Read More about WASP-169, WASP-171, WASP-175, and WASP-182: three hot Jupiters and one bloated sub-Saturn mass planet discovered by WASP-South.

A three-dimensional map of the hot Local Bubble using diffuse interstellar bands (2019)
Journal Article
Van Loon. (2019). A three-dimensional map of the hot Local Bubble using diffuse interstellar bands. Nature Astronomy, 922 - 927. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41550-019-0814-z

The Solar System is located within a low-density cavity known as the Local Bubble1–3, which appears to be filled with an X-ray-emitting gas at a temperature of 106?K (ref. 4). Such conditions are too harsh for typical interstellar atoms and molecules... Read More about A three-dimensional map of the hot Local Bubble using diffuse interstellar bands.

Two New HATNet Hot Jupiters around A Stars and the First Glimpse at the Occurrence Rate of Hot Jupiters from TESS (2019)
Journal Article
Hellier. (2019). Two New HATNet Hot Jupiters around A Stars and the First Glimpse at the Occurrence Rate of Hot Jupiters from TESS. Astronomical Journal, 141 - 141. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-3881/ab36b5

Wide-field surveys for transiting planets are well suited to searching diverse stellar populations, enabling a better understanding of the link between the properties of planets and their parent stars. We report the discovery of HAT-P-69 b (TOI 625.0... Read More about Two New HATNet Hot Jupiters around A Stars and the First Glimpse at the Occurrence Rate of Hot Jupiters from TESS.

International Group Work for Sustainable Chemistry (2019)
Journal Article
Haxton, K., & Darton, R. (2019). International Group Work for Sustainable Chemistry. New Directions in the Teaching of Physical Sciences, https://doi.org/10.29311/ndtps.v0i14.2821

As part of a transnational degree programme, students in the UK and China were linked together to carry out group work. This was enabled by having two versions of our FHEQ Level 4 Sustainable Chemistry module; in person for UK students, and by distan...
