A far-ultraviolet-driven photoevaporation flow observed in a protoplanetary disk.
(2024-03)Most low-mass stars form in stellar clusters that also contain massive stars, which are sources of far-ultraviolet (FUV) radiation. Theoretical models predict that this FUV radiation produces photodissociation regions ... -

First results from high redshift quasar searches in VIKING
(Queen Mary University of London, 2012-06)This thesis presents the discovery of the first luminous z & 6.5 quasars in the VISTA kilo-degree Infrared Galaxy Survey (VIKING). After some basic quality control, quasar selection is investigated via use of initial data ... -
FRW cosmology in Milgrom's bimetric theory of gravity
We consider spatially homogeneous and isotropic Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) solutions of Milgrom's recently proposed class of bimetric theories of gravity. These theories have two different regimes, corresponding to ... -
Further Exact Cosmological Solutions to Higher-Order Gravity Theories
We investigate the effect of deviations from general relativity on approach to the initial singularity by finding exact cosmological solutions to a wide class of fourth-order gravity theories. We present new anisotropic ... -
The Gaia mission

General relativistic effects in the galaxy bias at second order
(IOP Publishing, 2019-05-13) -
Giant Planet Formation and Migration
(2018-01-24)© 2018, The Author(s). Planets form in circumstellar discs around young stars. Starting with sub-micron sized dust particles, giant planet formation is all about growing 14 orders of magnitude in size. It has become ... -
