Hydrodynamic simulations of convection and nucleosynthesis in the late phases of massive stars to constrain and guide stellar evolution theory (2023)
Thesis
Rizzuti, F. (2023). Hydrodynamic simulations of convection and nucleosynthesis in the late phases of massive stars to constrain and guide stellar evolution theory. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/674565

The present knowledge of stellar evolution is still limited today by large uncertainties that derive from the complex multi-dimensional processes occurring in stars. Among them, the turbulent motions of the stellar fluid control the size and evolutio...

Scavenging of Cation Radicals of the Visual Cycle Retinoids by Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Taurine, and Melanin (2023)
Journal Article
Rozanowska, M., Edge, R., Land, E. J., Navaratnam, S., Sarna, T., & Truscott, T. G. (in press). Scavenging of Cation Radicals of the Visual Cycle Retinoids by Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Taurine, and Melanin. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 25(1), Article 506. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms25010506

In the retina, retinoids involved in vision are under constant threat of oxidation, and their oxidation products exhibit deleterious properties. Using pulse radiolysis, this study determined that the bimolecular rate constants of scavenging cation ra...

The EDIBLES survey: VII. A survey of C2 and C3 in interstellar clouds (2023)
Journal Article
Fan, H., Rocha, C. M. R., Cordiner, M., Linnartz, H., Cox, N. L. J., Farhang, A., …Cami, J. (2024). The EDIBLES survey: VII. A survey of C2 and C3 in interstellar clouds. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 681, Article A6. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202243910

Context. Small linear carbon chain radicals such as C2 and C3 act as both the building blocks and dissociation fragments of larger carbonaceous species. Their rotational excitation traces the temperature and density of local environments. However, th... Read More about The EDIBLES survey: VII. A survey of C2 and C3 in interstellar clouds.

Evaluating the use of virtual crime scenes to support student understanding of crime scene investigation (2023)
Journal Article
Handley, G. (2023). Evaluating the use of virtual crime scenes to support student understanding of crime scene investigation. The Journal of Academic Development and Education, https://doi.org/10.21252/3fd5-we15

This project aimed to explore the implementation of a virtual crime scene using the interactive visual platform ThingLink, to support student learning of crime scene investigation. This was necessary to facilitate learning during the national lockdow... Read More about Evaluating the use of virtual crime scenes to support student understanding of crime scene investigation.
