My name is Jay and I am currently studying Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Chemistry for my A-Levels.
I started this blog so that I could explore my interests in science, and stay up to date with developments in emerging fields

Below is attached a research project that I did last year, on the Final Parsec Problem. Usual content will return next fortnight.
Tidal energy is an emerging field of the energy sector, with rapid advances currently being made. Although very few tidal energy systems...
X-ray crystallography is the predominant method used today to find the structure of crystals and large molecules such as protein. X-ray...
Neutron stars are created after the collapse of massive stars, with a mass greater than the Chandrasekhar mass (at least 8 times more...
The Higgs boson is the newest addition to the Standard Model, first observed in 2012, although the existence of the Higgs mechanism had...
The Large Hadron Collider(LHC) is a particle accelerator located near Geneva designed to accelerate protons and ions, with the aim of...
The Standard Model is a theory used to describe the interactions of three of the fundamental forces(strong, weak, and electromagnetic)...
In places near the edges of tectonic plates, hydrothermal vents form, spewing out underwater clouds of water, as well as many precious...
Dark matter constitutes roughly 23-30% of the energy of the universe, yet we cannot directly observe it. Dark matter is a generic term...
Antimatter is made up of antiparticles. These antiparticles are almost identical to regular particles, except for one key difference:...
Terraforming Venus would be much harder than building floating cities, which I explored previously. It would require vast resources, and...
Radiation poisoning is a condition caused by exposure to a large enough dose of radiation. Everyone is exposed to some radiation over a...
In the UK, 8% of electricity generated is lost in transmission, totalling roughly 180TWh, equivalent to 15.5 million tonnes of oil. By...
Building a Marsbase is a challenge several orders of magnitude greater than building a Moonbase, which I explored in a earlier blog post...
Hydrogen fuel cell technology has been around for as long as battery technology suitable for cars, yet its success has not been nearly as...
One of the biggest challenges for any spacecraft to overcome is Earth's gravity. As a result, leaving Earth requires a huge amount of...
Stratospheric aerosol injection is a form of geoengineering that attempts to combat the effects of increased greenhouse gas concentration...
Today, elements are no longer discovered by chemists working in a laboratory but are synthesised by physicists over the course of...
Technetium is the first element (by atomic number) in the periodic table to have no stable isotopes. Despite this, it has found a variety...
