      Publications

      Highlights

      A full list of my publications can be found on the Astrophysics Data System (ADS). I provide a link here to (refereed) publication by "Nichol, R. C." which should be reasonably clean and complete. 

      Below, I provide links to ten of my favour papers (for various reasons) each have at least 150 citations. Happy to tell you why I selected them next time we meet.
