Philip Aston awarded EPSRC Impact Acceleration Grant for medical data analysis

It is now straightforward to collect large quantities of physiological data, such as blood pressure and ECG. The key challenge is to unlock the information in these complex data sets. In both heart conditions and infection, early detection allows for critical interventions that will save lives and reduce chronic morbidities. The attractor reconstruction (AR) method […]


Paper of Bartuccelli & Dean appears in Monthly Notices Royal Astronomical Society

The paper “Periodic and quasi-periodic attractors for the spin-orbit evolution of Mercury with a realistic tidal torque“, co-authored by M.V. Bartuccelli, J.H.B. Deane, and G. Gentile (Roma III) has been accepted for publication in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. In the paper, they make a detailed study of the spin-orbit dynamics of […]
