Journal Article
Holdsworth, C., & Brewis, G. (in press). Volunteering, choice and control: a case study of higher education student volunteering. Journal of Youth Studies, 17(2), 204 - 219. https://doi.org/10.1080/13676261.2013.815702

There has been a step change around youth volunteering in the UK in recent years as this once unheralded and taken for granted activity has moved more centre stage, particularly as a key strand of recent Government initiatives directed towards welfar...

Comparison of magnetic, electrical and ground penetrating radar surveys to detect buried forensic objects in semi-urban and domestic patio environments (2013)
Journal Article
Pringle, J. K., & Hansen, J. D. (2013). Comparison of magnetic, electrical and ground penetrating radar surveys to detect buried forensic objects in semi-urban and domestic patio environments. Geological Society Special Publications, 384, 229 - 251. https://doi.org/10.1144/SP384.13

Near-surface geophysical techniques should be routinely utilized by law enforcement agencies to locate shallowly buried forensic objects, saving human and other resources. However, there has been little published research on optimum geophysical detec...

Rapid thinning of the Late Pleistocene Patagonian Ice Sheet followed migration of the Southern Westerlies. (2013)
Journal Article
(2013). Rapid thinning of the Late Pleistocene Patagonian Ice Sheet followed migration of the Southern Westerlies. Scientific reports, 2118 -?. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep02118

Here we present the first reconstruction of vertical ice-sheet profile changes from any of the Southern Hemisphere's mid-latitude Pleistocene ice sheets. We use cosmogenic radio-nuclide (CRN) exposure analysis to record the decay of the former Patago...

Nonvolatile liquid anthracenes for facile full-colour luminescence tuning at single blue-light excitation (2013)
Journal Article
Möhwald, H., Nakanishi, T., Hagiwara, K., Yoshizawa, M., Babu, S., Hollamby, M., …Kobayashi, K. (2013). Nonvolatile liquid anthracenes for facile full-colour luminescence tuning at single blue-light excitation. Nature communications, https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms2969

Nonvolatile room-temperature luminescent molecular liquids are a new generation of organic soft materials. They possess high stability, versatile optical properties, solvent-free fluid behaviour and can effectively accommodate dopant dye molecules. H...

WASP-8b: characterization of a cool and eccentric exoplanet with Spitzer (2013)
Journal Article
(2013). WASP-8b: characterization of a cool and eccentric exoplanet with Spitzer. Astrophysical Journal, https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-637X/768/1/42

WASP-8b has 2.18 times Jupiter's mass and is on an eccentric ($e=0.31$) 8.16-day orbit. With a time-averaged equilibrium temperature of 948 K, it is one of the least-irradiated hot Jupiters observed with the Spitzer Space Telescope. We have analyzed...
