Journal Article
Ledger, P., & Lionheart, B. (2022). Minimal Object Characterisations using Harmonic Generalised Polarizability Tensors and Symmetry Groups. SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2057-2079. https://doi.org/10.1137/22M1471547

We introduce a new type of object characterisation, which is capable of accurately describing small iso?lated inclusions for potential field inverse problems such as in electrostatics, magnetostatics and related
low frequency Maxwell problems. Relev... Read More about Minimal Object Characterisations using Harmonic Generalised Polarizability Tensors and Symmetry Groups.

Determining sex in golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) nestlings (2022)
Journal Article

Incorporating sex ratios of nestlings into population viability studies increases knowledge of overall health of endangered populations. Currently, a reliable non-invasive method to identify the sex of golden eagle nestlings is not available; however... Read More about Determining sex in golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) nestlings.

An Unexpected Reaction between Diaryliodonium Salts and DMSO (2022)
Journal Article
Kepski, K., & Moran, W. J. (2022). An Unexpected Reaction between Diaryliodonium Salts and DMSO. Organics, 3(3), 275-280. https://doi.org/10.3390/org3030020

Diaryliodonium salts are useful arylating reagents that have been exploited widely. In this Communication, we demonstrate that heating diphenyliodonium triflate in the solvent DMSO leads to an unexpected arylation reaction. It is postulated that aryl...
