The host galaxy of GRB010222: the strongest damped Lyman-alpha system known (2001)
Journal Article
Maxted, P. (2001). The host galaxy of GRB010222: the strongest damped Lyman-alpha system known

Analysis of the absorption lines in the afterglow spectrum of the gamma-ray burst GRB010222 indicates that its host galaxy (at a redshift of z=1.476) is the strongest damped Lyman-alpha (DLA) system known, having a very low metallicity and modest dus...

Emission from the secondary star in the old CV WZ Sge (2001)
Journal Article
Maxted. (2001). Emission from the secondary star in the old CV WZ Sge. Astrophysical Journal, 145-148. https://doi.org/10.1086/338107

We present the first detection of the mass donor star in the cataclysmic variable WZ Sge. Phase resolved spectroscopy reveals narrow Balmer emission components from the irradiated secondary star during the 2001 outburst. Its radial velocity curve ind...

Migration and Masquerade: Gender and Habitus in the Philippines. (2001)
Journal Article
McKay. (2001). Migration and Masquerade: Gender and Habitus in the Philippines

Globalization recreates translocalities from what were previously imagined as isolated, peripheral communities. In the Philippines, a remote indigenous community incorporates new practices of gender brought by female circular migrants from urban 'abr...

The Steudnitz quarry (East Thuringia, Germany) exposes the entire Lower Muschelkalk (Middle Triassic, Anisian) with a thickness of 103 m. In this paper, a primarily palynofacies-based sequence-stratigraphical interpretation supported by lithological...

Analysing Census Microdata (2000)
Book
Dale, A., Fieldhouse, E., & Holdsworth, C. (2000). Analysing Census Microdata. Wiley

The use of census microdata - which is the extremely detailed information collected through the 'ultracensusing' of a small number of households at the time of the last census - forms an important part of many research activities in subject areas as... Read More about Analysing Census Microdata.

Ages, distances, and the initial mass functions of stellar clusters (2000)
Journal Article
Jeffries, R. (2000). Ages, distances, and the initial mass functions of stellar clusters. arXiv,

We provide a review of the current status of several topics on the ages, distances, and mass functions of open clusters, with a particular emphasis on illuminating the areas of uncertainty. Hipparcos has obtained parallaxes for nearby open clusters t... Read More about Ages, distances, and the initial mass functions of stellar clusters.

Leaving home in Spain: A regional analysis (1998)

This paper compares regional patterns of leaving home in Spain during the 1970s and 1980s based on analysis of the 1991 Spanish Sociodemographic Survey. The purpose of this analysis is to demonstrate that while nationally Spain is representative of a... Read More about Leaving home in Spain: A regional analysis.

Issues in the analysis of ethnicity in the 1991 British Census: Evidence from microdata (1997)
Journal Article

The 1991 British Census was the first to ask a question on ethnic group. This Research note provides a brief review of the development of the question and then uses the Samples of Anonymised Records, also newly available in 1991, to explore the const...

The progress of industrialization throughout the nineteenth century had profound effects on health and mortality. One relationship that contemporaries found particularly alarming was the potentially damaging effect that the employment of women in ind...

Thesis
Power, G. M. (1974). The geology of the Precambrian rocks of La Hague, Manche, France. (Thesis). Keele University

The Precambrian rocks of La Hague have been divided into three areas of older gneisses, an orthogneiss complex intrusive into these gneisses and a series of post-tectonic granitic rocks.

The sedimentology and stratigraphy of red beds in the Westphalian A to C of central England
Thesis
Besly, B. (1983). The sedimentology and stratigraphy of red beds in the Westphalian A to C of central England

Red beds in the Westphalian A to C of Central England belong to the Etruria Formation. Examination of exposures and cores has allowed subdivision of this Formation into three Facies Associations.
Facies Association I forms the gradational base of t... Read More about The sedimentology and stratigraphy of red beds in the Westphalian A to C of central England.

Leisure-rich and leisure-poor: the place of leisure in the life styles of young adults
Thesis
Bernard, M. (1983). Leisure-rich and leisure-poor: the place of leisure in the life styles of young adults

Any attempt to understand the nature of leisure must explore how it meshes with other aspects of people's lives. Early research on leisure tended to be large-scale and activity rather than peopleorientated, which has proved restrictive in planning te...

Thesis
Cresswell, D. (1969). The geology of the Lewisian rocks north of Loch Torridon, Ross-Shire, Scotland

The Lewisian rocks of Loch Torridon consist of banded acid gneisses enclosing a number of basic and ultrabasic bodies and cut by a swarm of NW-SE trending basic dykes and by a later set of pegmatite dykes and a granite sheet.
