“Train and Hope”: The Role of Restorative Justice Coordinators in Sustaining a Culture of Care in Schools

open access: yesConflict Resolution Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the role of restorative justice coordinators in supporting teachers and schools in adopting a whole‐school approach to restorative justice in education. Coordinators are often tasked with implementing a train‐and‐hope model, in which they receive initial training in restorative justice but are largely left unsupported ...

Black hole accretion discs

open access: yes, 2016
This is an introduction to models of accretion discs around black holes. After a presentation of the non-relativistic equations describing the structure and evolution of geometrically thin accretion discs we discuss their steady-state solutions and ...

Alpine ungulates adjust diel activity to the natural return of wolves amid anthropogenic pressures

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
As wolves recolonise their historical range across Europe, ungulates face predation once more – but in landscapes profoundly altered by human activity. This shift raises crucial questions about their capacity to express adaptive antipredator behaviours.

Emission-line Diagnostics for IMBHs in Dwarf Galaxies: Accounting for Black Hole Seeding and Ultraluminous X-Ray Source Excitation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Dwarf active galactic nuclei (AGN) serve as the ideal systems for identifying intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) down to the most elusive regimes (∼10 ^3 –10 ^4 M _⊙ ).

The Interpretations For the Low and High Frequency QPO Correlations of X-ray Sources Among White Dwarfs, Neutron Stars and Black Holes

open access: yes, 2007
It is found that there exists an empirical linear relation between the high frequency $\nhigh$ and low frequency $\nlow$ of quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) for black hole candidate (BHC), neutron star (NS) and white dwarf (WD) in the binary systems ...

Impacts of large herbivores on mycorrhizal fungal communities across the Arctic

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Mycorrhizal fungi play an integral role in nutrient and carbon cycling in soils, which may be especially important in the Arctic, one of the world's most soil carbon‐rich regions. Large mammalian herbivores can influence these fungi through their impacts on vegetation and soil conditions, however the strength and prevalence of these interactions in the

Matching your way to Success: The Influence of Motivational Frame Matching on Interaction Outcomes and Reciprocal Matching

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Theories of interpersonal sensemaking postulate that positive interactions emerge in interactions where speakers match on motivational frames. Across three experiments (N = 1609) using a hypothetical simulation framework, we provide the first evidence of a causal link between motivational frame matching and positive interaction outcomes in ...

Tidal disruption of white dwarfs by intermediate mass black holes

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
Modeling ultra-close encounters between a white dwarf and a spinning, intermediate mass black hole requires a full general relativistic treatment of gravity. This paper summarizes results from such a study.

The Host Galaxy and Central Engine of the Dwarf AGN POX 52

open access: yes, 2008
We present new multi-wavelength observations of the dwarf Seyfert 1 galaxy POX 52 in order to investigate the properties of the host galaxy and the active nucleus, and to examine the mass of its black hole, previously estimated to be ~ 10^5 M_sun. Hubble
