Presentation by Dr Giulio Mattioli www.its.leeds.ac.uk/people/g.mattioli
In the UK at present domestic energy policies are framed in terms of reducing energy consumption and emissions while at the same time taking into account issues of affordability, which are part of the established fuel poverty agenda. Similar energy affordability issues in transport have not yet drawn the same attention. This is despite increasing recognition in international research that the costs of daily mobility, notably by car, can have important economic stress impacts, e.g. leading households to curtail expenditure in other essential areas. Different terms are used in the literature to indicate such problems, including ‘forced car ownership’, ‘transport poverty’, ‘oil vulnerability’, 'commuter fuel poverty', and 'car-related economic stress'.
The presentation reports on the intermediate findings of the (t)ERES project linked to the DEMAND Research Centre. It draws on the results of both literature reviews and secondary quantitative data analysis. A first strand of work has focused on the relationships between affordability issues in three different sectors (housing, domestic energy and transport) and whether / to what extent these have been investigated in three European countries (UK, France and Germany). A second work package has focused on the similarities and differences between issues of affordability in the domestic energy and transport sector, and how these should be conceptualised. Finally, the results of the quantitative secondary analysis of British datasets (Living Costs and Food Survey, EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions, MOT data) will be presented. This has allowed us to assess the incidence of car-related economic stress in the UK, the characteristics of the population concerned, as well as overlaps between different forms of economic stress.

Developing an index of vulnerability to motor fuel price increases in England...(t)ERES research project
As the outlook for oil prices remains uncertain, this paper develops a method to assess which areas of England would be most vulnerable to future motor fuel price increases. Building on previous research, we define and operationalise three dimensions of vulnerability: exposure (the cost burden of motor fuel), sensitivity (income) and adaptive capacity (accessibility with modes alternative to the car). We exploit unique data sets available in England, including the ‘MOT’ vehicle inspection data and DfT Accessibility Statistics. This allows us to map vulnerability to fuel price increases at a spatially disaggregated level (Lower-layer Super Output Areas), taking into account motor-fuel expenditure for all travel purposes, and the ability of households to shift to other modes of travel. This is an advancement on the ‘oil vulnerability’ indices developed in previous international research.

Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.

Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.
Multi-source connectivity as the driver of solar wind variability in the heli...Sérgio Sacani
The ambient solar wind that flls the heliosphere originates from multiple
sources in the solar corona and is highly structured. It is often described
as high-speed, relatively homogeneous, plasma streams from coronal
holes and slow-speed, highly variable, streams whose source regions are
under debate. A key goal of ESA/NASA’s Solar Orbiter mission is to identify
solar wind sources and understand what drives the complexity seen in the
heliosphere. By combining magnetic feld modelling and spectroscopic
techniques with high-resolution observations and measurements, we show
that the solar wind variability detected in situ by Solar Orbiter in March
2022 is driven by spatio-temporal changes in the magnetic connectivity to
multiple sources in the solar atmosphere. The magnetic feld footpoints
connected to the spacecraft moved from the boundaries of a coronal hole
to one active region (12961) and then across to another region (12957). This
is refected in the in situ measurements, which show the transition from fast
to highly Alfvénic then to slow solar wind that is disrupted by the arrival of
a coronal mass ejection. Our results describe solar wind variability at 0.5 au
but are applicable to near-Earth observatories.
Nutraceutical market, scope and growth: Herbal drug technologyLokesh Patil
As consumer awareness of health and wellness rises, the nutraceutical market—which includes goods like functional meals, drinks, and dietary supplements that provide health advantages beyond basic nutrition—is growing significantly. As healthcare expenses rise, the population ages, and people want natural and preventative health solutions more and more, this industry is increasing quickly. Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.

9. • Units of analysis – poverty and economic stress because of
what we do. Energy is a part of that but only a part of it
• Policy silos are central to this. For too long we have looked
at this in a narrow way
• Austerity, inequality and injustice look like they are
widening, not narrowing
• We are at a point of a major transition in mobility and
possibly a coupling of domestic energy travel – but we
haven’t thought it through

Day 1
Perfect storm:
Economic austerity and widening of income gap
Continued change in household structures, migration and rising housing costs
Volatility in oil prices
Rising domestic energy prices
Critically, the average price increase from 2005 to 2013 was 79% or 10% per annum
This varies from 27% in the Netherlands to 131% in Spain
Of obvious concern and relevance here is the much higher proportion of disposable income that housing costs form for lower income groups.
Transport costs are not regressive – quite the opposite. But this is in part because households in lower deciles are less likely to own a car.
And there are obvious geographical differences both between urban areas in quite distinct housing markets but also, as shown on this chart between urban and rural areas – transport for example is much higher in urban areas, in part due to the lower levels of accessibility.
Housing and transport prices have increased faster than overall inflation in the last 20 years (housing more than transport). Within both,fuel expenditure has increased even faster
The gap has increased between the two lowest income quintiles (now spending more than 25 years ago on H+T) and the rest. Households in lowest income quintile now devote on average half their expenditure to H+T. More detailed analysis shows that this is due mostly to housing. The share spent on transport (and notably operation of private vehicle) has increased for all quintiles.
Such an increasing gap is not observed in France and Germany.
UK: strong policy and research attention for poverty, both in general and specifically in the domestic energy, transport and housing sectors. However: intriguing lack of interest for the relationships between issues of affordability in the different sectors.
This is different in FR and DE.
Hence the idea of a workshop that is cross-sectoral (3 x sectors) and international (3 x EU countries).
The roundtable discussion will focus on how / whether the findings of the French and German studies presented throughout the day are relevant for UK research and policy – trying to “bring the discussion back to Britain”. This eases the transition to day 2 where the focus will be much more on UK policy making.
We want to ask participants to write down anonymous questions (focused on UK) throughout the day which we will then gather and ask to the roundtable participants.
We will tweet during the workshop. Participants are welcome to do so too with the hashtag
