Journal Article
Van Reeth, T., Southworth, J., Van Beeck, J., & Bowman, D. M. (2022). V456 Cyg: An eclipsing binary with tidally perturbed g-mode pulsations. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 659, Article ARTN A177. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202142833

Context. Many well-known bright stars have been observed by the ongoing transiting exoplanet survey satellite (TESS) space mission. For several of them, these new data reveal previously unobserved variability, such as tidally perturbed pulsations in...

Journal Article
MacIsaac, H., Cami, J., Cox, N. L., Farhang, A., Smoker, J., Elyajouri, M., …Smith, K. T. (2022). The EDIBLES survey V: Line profile variations in the λλ5797, 6379, and 6614 diffuse interstellar bands as a tool to constrain carrier sizes. Astronomy & Astrophysics, https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202142225

Context. Several diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) have profiles with resolved sub-peaks that resemble rotational bands of large molecules. Analysis of these profiles can constrain the sizes and geometries of the DIB carriers, especially if the profi...

Journal Article
Madden, C., Pringle, J., Jeffery, A., Wisniewski, K., Glanville, H., Heaton, V., …Oliver, I. (2022). Portable X-Ray Fluorescence (pXRF) Analysis of Heavy Metal Contamination in Graveyards with Contrasting Soil Types. Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 29, 55278–55292. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11356-022-19676-z

Human remains have been interred in burial grounds since historic times. Although the re-use of graveyards differs from one country, region or time-period to another, over time graveyard soil may become contaminated or enriched with heavy metal eleme...

A multi-modal exploration of heterogeneous physico–chemical properties of DCIS breast microcalcifications (2022)
Journal Article
Gosling, S., Calabrese, D., Nallala, J., Greenwood, C., Pinder, S., King, L., …Stone, N. (2022). A multi-modal exploration of heterogeneous physico–chemical properties of DCIS breast microcalcifications. Analyst, 147(8), 1641-1654. https://doi.org/10.1039/d1an01548f

Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is frequently associated with breast calcification. This study combines multiple analytical techniques to investigate the heterogeneity of these calcifications at the micrometre scale. X-ray diffraction, scanning elect...

We present the discovery and characterization of two transiting planets observed by TESS in the light curves of the young and bright (V = 9.67) star HD73583 (TOI-560). We perform an intensive spectroscopic and photometric space- and ground-based foll...

The VMC survey – XLVIII. Classical cepheids unveil the 3D geometry of the LMC (2022)
Journal Article
Van Loon. (2022). The VMC survey – XLVIII. Classical cepheids unveil the 3D geometry of the LMC. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 563 - 582. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac595

We employed the VISTA near-infrared YJK(s) survey of the Magellanic System (VMC) to analyse the Y, J, and K-s light curves of delta Cepheid stars (DCEPs) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Our sample consists of 4408 objects accounting for 97 per c... Read More about The VMC survey – XLVIII. Classical cepheids unveil the 3D geometry of the LMC.

On Rayleigh wave field induced by surface stresses under the effect of gravity (2022)
Journal Article

The paper is concerned with development of the asymptotic formulation for surface wave field induced by vertical surface stress under the effect of gravity in the short-wave region. The approach relies on the methodology of hyperbolic-elliptic models... Read More about On Rayleigh wave field induced by surface stresses under the effect of gravity.

Context. Gas giants orbiting close to hot and massive early-type stars can reach dayside temperatures that are comparable to those of the coldest stars. These 'ultra-hot Jupiters' have atmospheres made of ions and atomic species from molecular dissoc... Read More about The atmosphere and architecture of WASP-189 b probed by its CHEOPS phase curve.
