    • The universal and the local in the Civitas Batavorum 

      Christensen, Kristian K. (2023-05-27) - Journal article
      Intense recruitment for the Roman army among the Batavians of the Lower Rhi­ne exposed their community more profoundly to Latin literacy and the universal cul­ture of the empire than many oth­er provinces. How­ever, through ...

    • The need for a non-invasive technology for endometriosis detection and care 

      Hine, Ariane Alice; Kuster Filipe Bowles, Juliana; Webber, Thais (IOS Press, 2023-05-18) - Conference item
      Endometriosis is a complex, poorly understood, female health condition that can markedly reduce a woman’s quality of life. The gold-standard diagnostic method for Endometriosis is invasive laparoscopic surgery, which is ...

    • Looking back on biodiversity change : lessons for the road ahead 

      Dornelas , Maria; Chase, Jonathan M.; Gotelli, Nicholas J.; Magurran, Anne; McGill, Brian J.; Antão, Laura H.; Blowes, Shane A.; Daskalova, Gergana N.; Leung, Brian; Martins, Inês S.; Moyes, Faye Helen; Myers-Smith, Isla H.; Thomas, Chris D.; Vellend, Mark (2023-07-17) - Journal item
      Estimating biodiversity change across the planet in the context of widespread human modification is a critical challenge. Here, we review how biodiversity has changed in recent decades across scales and taxonomic groups, ...

    • Testing super-eddington accretion on to a supermassive black hole : reverberation mapping of PG 1119+120 

      Donnan, Fergus R; Hernandez Santisteban, Juan V.; Horne, Keith; Hu, Chen; Du, Pu; Li, Yan-Rong; Xiao, Ming; Ho, Luis C; Aceituno, Jesús; Wang, Jian-Min; Guo, Wei-Jian; Yang, Sen; Jiang, Bo-Wei; Yao, Zhu-Heng (2023-07) - Journal article
      We measure the black hole mass and investigate the accretion flow around the local (z = 0.0502) quasar PG 1119+120. Spectroscopic monitoring with Calar Alto provides H β lags and linewidths from which we estimate a black ...

    • Manganese catalysed dehydrogenative synthesis of polyureas from diformamide and diamines 

      McLuskie, Angus; Brodie, Claire N.; Tricarico, Michele; Gao, Chang; Peters, Gavin; Naden, Aaron B.; Mackay, C. Logan; Tan, Jin-Chong; Kumar, Amit (2023-05-15) - Journal article
      We report here the synthesis of polyureas from the dehydrogenative coupling of diamines and diformamides. The reaction is catalysed by a manganese pincer complex and releases H2 gas as the only by-product making the process ...
