    • Stationary and Dynamical Properties of Pure-Quartic Solitons 

      Tam, Kevin K. K.; Alexander, Tristram J.; Blanco Redondo, Andrea; de Sterke, C. Martijn
      Published 2019
      We numerically solve a generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation and find a family of pure-quartic solitons, existing through a balance of positive Kerr nonlinearity and negative quartic dispersion. These solitons have ...

    • Self-similar propagation of optical pulses in fibers with positive quartic dispersion 

      Runge, Antoine F.J.; Alexander, Tristram J.; Newton, Joseph; Alavandi, Pranav A.; Hudson, Darren D.; Blanco Redondo, Andrea; de Sterke, C. Martijn
      Published 2020
      We study the propagation of ultrashort pulses in optical fiber with gain and positive (or normal) quartic dispersion by self-similarity analysis of the modified nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We find an exact asymptotic ...

    • Sodium manganese fluorosulphate with a triplite structure 

      Barpanda, P; Ling, Chris D; Oyama, G; Yamada, A
      Published 2013
      The crystal structure of the NaMnSO4F fluorosulphate phase prepared by low-temperature solid-state synthesis has been solved and refined by the Rietveld analysis of synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data. Isostructural ...

    • Factors affecting lamb birth weight, gestation length, survival and litter size in Poll Dorset sheep 

      Sawyer, G. J. L.; Doolan, S.; Roberts, I. J.; Imaz, J. A.; Refshauge, G.; de Graaf, S. P.; Gonzalez, L. A.
      Published 2022
      In NSW, lamb mortality ranges between 10–35% (Hinch and Brien 2014), but this figure varies according to season, location, litter size and breed. Improving the survival of lambs is essential for industry social license ...

    • Experimental Observation and Computational Study of the Spin-gap Excitation in Ba3BiRu2O9 

      Ling, Chris D; Huang, Zixin; Kennedy, Brendan J; Rols, S; Johnson, M R; Zbiri, M; Kimber, S A J; Hudspeth, J; Adroja, D T; Rule, K C; Avdeev, Maxim; Blanchard, Peter E R
      Published 2016
      Ba3BiRu2O9 is a 6H-type perovskite compound containing face-sharing octahedral M2O9 (M = Ir, Ru) dimers, which are magnetically frustrated at low temperatures. On cooling through T∗ = 176 K, it undergoes a pronounced ...
