• Elastic and anelastic relaxation behaviour of perovskite multiferroics II : PbZr0.53Ti0.47O3 (PZT)–PbFe0.5Ta0.5O3 (PFT) 

  Schiemer, J. A.; Lascu, I.; Harrison, R. J.; Kumar, A.; Katiyar, R. S.; Sanchez, D. A.; Ortega, N.; Mejia, C. Salazar; Schnelle, W.; Shinohara, H.; Heap, A. J. F.; Nagaratnam, R.; Dutton, S. E.; Scott, J. F.; Nair, B.; Mathur, N. D.; Carpenter, M. A. (2016-09-09) - Journal article

  Elastic and anelastic properties of ceramic samples of multiferroic perovskites with nominal compositions across the binary join PbZr0.53Ti0.47O3–PbFe0.5Ta0.5O3 (PZT–PFT) have been assembled to create a binary phase diagram ...

• Quantum capacitance and charge sensing of a superconducting double dot 

  Lambert, Nicholas J.; Esmail, Adam A.; Edwards, Megan; Pollock, Felix A.; Lovett, Brendon William; Ferguson, Andrew (2016-09) - Journal item

  We study the energetics of a superconducting double dot, by measuring both the quantum capacitance of the device and the response of a nearby charge sensor. We observe different behaviour for odd and even charge states and ...

• Effectiveness of early lens extraction for the treatment of primary angle-closure glaucoma (EAGLE): a randomised controlled trial 

  Azuara-Blanco, Augusto; Burr, Jennifer; Ramsay, Craig; Cooper, David; Foster, Paul J.; Friedman, David S.; Scotland, Graham; Javanbakht, Mehdi; Cochrane, Claire; Norrie, John; For the EAGLE study group (2016-10-01) - Journal article

  Background . Primary angle-closure glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. In early-stage disease, intraocular pressure is raised without visual loss. Because the crystalline lens has a major ...

• Inhibiting NAD+-dependent DNA ligase activity with 2-(cyclopentyloxy)-5'-deoxyadenosine (CPOdA) offers a new tool for DNA replication and repair studies in the model archaeon Haloferax volcanii 

  Giroux, Xavier; MacNeill, Stuart (2015) - Journal article

  DNA ligases play an essential role in many aspects of DNA metabolism in all three domains of life. The haloarchaeal organism Haloferax volcanii encodes both ATP- and NAD+-dependent DNA ligase enzymes designated LigA and ...

• pH controlled assembly of a self-complementary halogen-bonded dimer 

  Maugeri, Leonardo; Jamieson, Ellen; Cordes, David Bradford; Slawin, Alexandra Martha Zoya; Philp, Douglas (2016-09-19) - Journal article

  Phenols and their corresponding phenoxide anions can form halogen bonds with neutral iodotriazoles. The strength of these interactions depends critically on the protonation state of the oxygen atom – the interaction of the ...
