WASP-80b has a dayside within the T-dwarf range (2015)
Journal Article
Maxted, Smalley, & Hellier. (2015). WASP-80b has a dayside within the T-dwarf range. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2279 -2290. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv706

WASP-80b is a missing link in the study of exoatmospheres. It falls between the warm Neptunes and the hot Jupiters and is amenable for characterization, thanks to its host star's properties. We observed the planet through transit and during occultati... Read More about WASP-80b has a dayside within the T-dwarf range.

A kinematically unbiased search for nearby young stars in the Northern hemisphere selected using SuperWASP rotation periods (2015)
Journal Article
Binks, A., Jeffries, R., & Maxted, P. (2015). A kinematically unbiased search for nearby young stars in the Northern hemisphere selected using SuperWASP rotation periods. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 452(1), 173-192. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv1309

We present a kinematically-unbiased search to identify young, nearby low-mass members of kinematic moving groups (MGs). Objects with both rotation periods shorter than 5 days in the SuperWASP All-Sky Survey and X-ray counterparts in the ROSAT All-Sky...

The Kepler space mission provided near-continuous and high-precision photometry of about 207 000 stars, which can be used for asteroseismology. However, for successful seismic modeling it is equally important to have accurate stellar physical paramet... Read More about Spectroscopic survey of Kepler stars.(a similar to...) I.

Obliquity Control On Southern Hemisphere Climate During The Last Glacial (2015)
Journal Article
(2015). Obliquity Control On Southern Hemisphere Climate During The Last Glacial. Scientific reports, 11673 -?. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep11673

Recent paleoclimate reconstructions have challenged the traditional view that Northern Hemisphere insolation and associated feedbacks drove synchronous global climate and ice-sheet volume during the last glacial cycle. Here we focus on the response o... Read More about Obliquity Control On Southern Hemisphere Climate During The Last Glacial.

Diffraction evidence for the structure of cellulose microfibrils in bamboo, a model for grass and cereal celluloses. (2015)
Journal Article
(2015). Diffraction evidence for the structure of cellulose microfibrils in bamboo, a model for grass and cereal celluloses. BMC Plant Biology, 153 - ?. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12870-015-0538-x

BACKGROUND: Cellulose from grasses and cereals makes up much of the potential raw material for biofuel production. It is not clear if cellulose microfibrils from grasses and cereals differ in structure from those of other plants. The structures of th...

Bleaching of the post-IR IRSL signal from individual grains of K-feldspar: Implications for single-grain dating (2015)
Journal Article
(2015). Bleaching of the post-IR IRSL signal from individual grains of K-feldspar: Implications for single-grain dating. Radiation Measurements, 33 -42. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.radmeas.2015.06.003

Post-IR IRSL (pIRIR) signals from K-feldspar grains measured at elevated temperatures are increasingly being used for dating sediments. Unfortunately the pIRIR signal from K-feldspars bleaches more slowly than other signals (e.g. OSL from quartz) upo...

A new R function for the Internal External Uncertainty (IEU) model (2015)
Journal Article
(2015). A new R function for the Internal External Uncertainty (IEU) model

A new function (calc IEU) is now available in the latest version of the R Luminescence package (version 0.4.2). The calc IEU function can be used to calculate an equivalent dose (De)value for a given dose distribution using the Internal External Unce...

The pentameric nucleoplasmin fold is present in Drosophila FKBP39 and a large number of chromatin-related proteins. (2015)
Journal Article
(2015). The pentameric nucleoplasmin fold is present in Drosophila FKBP39 and a large number of chromatin-related proteins. Journal of Molecular Biology, 1949 - 1963. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmb.2015.03.010

Nucleoplasmin is a histone chaperone that consists of a pentameric N-terminal domain and an unstructured C-terminal tail. The pentameric core domain, a doughnut-like structure with a central pore, is only found in the nucleoplasmin family. Here, we r...
