Below is a list of my refereed and conference publications, press releases and my PhD thesis. PDF files are available for many of these papers, and are the versions of the papers as accepted (i.e., before they were compromised by style-editing) with the proof-reading and any other corrections applied. The published versions are available at the NASA ADS website. Links to the data are also provided for some of the papers.

My PhD studies were at Keele University, UK, under the name John Taylor. I began in September 2001 and submitted my thesis in February 2005. My viva voce was in June 2005 and the thesis was formally accepted, after minor corrections, on 1st March 2006.
The thesis has very comprehensive introductory chapters which may be useful to other researchers. It can be downloaded in the following versions (I recommend the second version -- its contents can be found here):
A British thesis is an unpublished work within the meaning of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act, 1988 (section 175).
