Never Mind the Bollards: Exploring the Role of GCHQ, MI5, and the National Technical Authorities in UK Security Markets

open access: yesThe Howard Journal of Crime and Justice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The cultures and governance of security markets in the United Kingdom are often characterised through a paradoxical narrative of simultaneous state retreat and progressive advance. In the face of repeated recent high‐profile security failures, and global changes in material political economy, we argue that UK security governance is adapting to

The Legacy of Policy Inaction in Climate‐Growth Models

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To better understand the structure and core mechanisms of a broad class of climate‐growth models, we study a simplified version of the dynamic integrated model of climate and the economy (DICE) through the lens of growth theory. We analytically show that this model features a continuum of saddle‐point stable steady states.

Pangenome analysis reveals the genetic mechanism underlying high‐altitude adaptation in Qinghai–Xizang (Tibet) Plateau Rhododendron

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Pan‐genome analysis reveals that high‐altitude Rhododendron species resist alpine cold stress by rapidly sensing and engaging the chilling response pathway and genes that directly and indirectly protect the plant from UV radiation. Heritable genomic features such as long terminal repeats contribute to the adaptive diversification of Rhododendron ...

The role of composition in the spectral evolution of carbonaceous asteroids as informed by Bennu sample return

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Near‐Earth rubble‐pile asteroids Bennu and Ryugu are part of the carbonaceous taxonomic complex (C‐complex), and samples returned from both bodies resemble the most aqueously altered carbonaceous chondrites. However, telescopic and spacecraft visible–near infrared (VIS–NIR) reflectance spectra of Ryugu exhibit a red (positive) spectral slope ...

A Detection System for Dirty Bombs in Open Environments

open access: yes, 2018
In this paper, a system is presented, which addresses the first question of source assignment in an open environment of unordered person flows using sophisticated data fusion algorithms for a set of gamma ray detectors and 3D time-of-flight cameras for tracking.
