Using intelligence to shape reforms in child protection
(2012)
The Ryan Report, published in 2009, was not the first review of child welfare services to raise disquiet. Nevertheless it was unique in that its recommendations went beyond the deficits exposed by the report to comment on ...
International Migration in Ireland, 2011
(2012)
This is the Irish report to the OECD Continuous Reporting System on Migration (SOPEMI). The principal reference year is 2010.
Single-step exfoliation and chemical functionalisation of graphene and hBN nanosheets with nickel phthalocyanine
(2012)
Versatile routes to functionalise few-layer graphene and hBN with nickel phthalocyanine (Ni-Pc) were achieved using liquid phase exfoliation and sonication methods. EDX performed on the graphene//Ni-Pc specimen showed ...
Uniqueness Typing for Resource Management in Message-Passing Concurrency.
(2012)
We view channels as the main form of resources in a message-passing programming paradigm. These channels need to be
carefully managed in settings where resources are scarce. To study this problem, we extend the pi-calculus ...
Profile of Community-Dwelling Older People with a Disability and their Caregivers in Ireland
(The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing and the Department of Health and Children, 2012)
Synthesis and photophysical evaluation of a pyridinium 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide derivative that upon intercalation displays preference for AT-rich double-stranded DNA
(2012)
The synthesis, characterisation and solid state crystal structure of a cationic 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide
derivative (1) are described. The photophysical properties of 1 are shown to vary with the solvent polarity
and ...
Photophysical studies of CdTe quantum dots in the presence of a zinc cationic porphyrin
(2012)
The photophysical properties of 2.3 nm thioglycolic acid (TGA) coated CdTe quantum dots (QDs)
prepared by a reflux method have been studied in the presence of cationic meso-tetrakis(4-Nmethylpyridyl)
zinc porphyrin ...
The Primary Classroom: Insights from the 'Growing Up in Ireland' Study
(NCCA and ESRI, 2012)
Triangular silver nanoparticles: their preparation, functionalisation and properties
(2012)
This paper reports our progress towards developing a reproducible and rapid method to prepare triangular silver nanoplates. The methods are all based on a seed-mediated procedure involving the reduction of silver ions with ...
Ultrafast IR spectroscopy of polymeric cytosine nucleic acids reveal the long-lived species is due to a localised state
(2012)
The decay pathways of UV-excited cytosine polymers are investigated using picosecond time-resolved infrared spectroscopy. Similar yields of a non-emissive 1niU* state are found in the single-stranded dC30 polymer as in the ...
