DOI: 10.1038/s41550-017-0334-7

Abstract: Orbiting supermassive black holes in the centres of nearby galaxies contribute to a gravitational-wave background over the whole sky. Networks of millisecond pulsars are sensitive to this signal. Creating maps of this background using information… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41550-018-0558-1

Abstract: Understanding how and why star formation turns off in massive galaxies is a major challenge for studies of galaxy evolution. Many theoretical explanations have been proposed, but a definitive consensus is yet to be reached. read more here.

Abstract: A substantial population of previously unknown massive dusty galaxies during the first two billion years after the Big Bang have been identified with submillimetre observations. They may solve some outstanding puzzles related to the formation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stz3216

Abstract: We investigate a large sample of massive galaxies at z ∼ 1 with combined HST broad-band and grism observations to constrain the star-formation histories of these systems as they transition from a star-forming state to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnrasl/slw242

Abstract: We take advantage of our recently published model for Galaxy Evolution and Assembly (GAEA) to study the origin of the observed correlation between [$\alpha$/Fe] and galaxy stellar mass. In particular, we analyse the role of… read more here.
