Competition and payments to African chiefs on the Gold Coast during the slave trade, 1679‒1704

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The manuscript records of the Royal African Company show that the Company paid African chiefs for access to trade along the caravan routes on the Gold Coast in the seventeenth century. This paper documents and examines these payments. Using an event study, I establish that after the Glorious Revolution in 1688 when the Company's monopoly in ...

Supergravity, string theory and black holes

open access: yes, 2010
In this thesis we study a large class of three-charge solutions of supergravity in various dimensions and duality frames. The solutions have the same asymptotic structure, supersymmetry and conserved charges as black holes and black rings with macroscopic horizons and finite entropy.

Braneworld black holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The braneworld paradigm provides an interesting framework within which to explore the possibility that our Universe lives in a fundamentally higher dimensional space- time.

Phases of string stars in the presence of a spatial circle

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
In string theory, black holes are expected to transition into string stars as their Hawking temperatures approach the Hagedorn temperature. We study string stars and their phase transitions in the Euclidean spacetime ℝ d × S τ 1 $$ {\mathbbm{S}}_{\tau}^1

Living in the Mycelial World

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...

Fermion perturbations in string theory black holes [PDF]

open access: yesClassical and Quantum Gravity, 2011
In this paper we study fermion perturbations in four dimensional black holes of string theory, obtained either from a non-extreme configuration of three intersecting five-branes with a boost along the common string or from a non-extreme intersecting system of two two-branes and two five-branes.

The gravitational index of a small black ring

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
Certain supersymmetric elementary string states with angular momentum can be viewed as small black rings in a five-dimensional string theory. These black rings have zero area event horizon.

Locked plate versus modified clamp‐rod internal fixation for feline corpus ilium fractures: A comparative clinical study

open access: yesVeterinary Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the applicability and clinical effectiveness of a modified clamp‐rod internal fixation (M‐CRIF) system compared with conventional locking plate osteosynthesis in the treatment of feline corpus ilium fractures. Study design Prospective, controlled clinical study.

Index saddle for supersymmetric F1-P black ring

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We construct the index saddle for the supersymmetric F1-P black ring. Our construction proceeds by taking a supersymmetric limit of a non-supersymmetric doubly spinning F1-P black ring.
