Post-starburst galaxies in simulations and observations
(University of St Andrews, 2022-06-13) - ThesisPost-starburst (PSB) galaxies are the galaxies in which star formation has recently been sharply truncated, as indicated by strong Balmer absorption lines alongside weak or absent nebular emission lines. PSBs are believed ... -
Wireless magnetoelectrically powered organic light-emitting diodes
(2024-12-04) - ThesisBiomedical implants, such as brain stimulators, have significantly enhanced the quality of life for many individuals. Recently, the emergence of photonic implants has opened new avenues for innovative treatment methods and ... -
Advances in electron paramagnetic resonance through synthetic chemistry
(2024-06-10) - ThesisElectron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) is one of the most powerful and versatile tools for investigating the local structure and dynamics of paramagnetic substances. In this work, dipolar spectroscopy (PDS) and ... -
Coulomb blockade thermometry-based nanocalorimetry and its application to CeRh₂As₂
(2024-06-10) - ThesisIn quantum materials research, thermodynamic measurements are a key tool for probing the underlying physics of materials. The highest quality samples are often only available as microcrystals of typical mass < 100 μg. Heat ... -
The development and use of elastic resonators to study biomechanics in soft-bodied locomotion
(2024-06-10) - ThesisLocomotion is a vital behaviour, near-ubiquitous across the Animal Kingdom, forming the ethological fundament for many behaviours critical for survival. Universally among terrestrial animals, these behaviours involve the ...
