World Models for Robotic Manipulation: A Survey

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
World models enable robots to anticipate how candidate actions may alter object configurations, contact states, and scene geometry before physical execution. This survey examines world models for robotic manipulation as action‐conditioned predictive systems and organizes the literature according to predicted representations, interfaces between ...

Paradigm transition in cosmic plasma physics

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 1982
During the 1970's in situ measurements in the magnetospheres, including the solar wind region ("solar magnetosphere") drastically changed our understanding of the properties of cosmic plasmas. Further, we have learned how to generalize results from plasma investigations in one region to other regions.

Mortal relationality: waria family care and the ethics of dying in Bali Relationnalité mortelle : soins familiaux des waria et éthique des mourants à Bali

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Can a good death occur for those who balance on the edges of grievability? In Bali, where death marks a transition within the cycles of reincarnation, a good death depends on the mortuary care performed by intimate others – care that may be foreclosed to those whose lives are shaped by stigma.

COSMOLOGICAL MARKINGS AND ERASURES: The Political Theology of State‐Led Gentrification and Heritagization

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article investigates the symbolic politics of state‐led gentrification and heritagization, focusing on how these processes serve to ‘glorify’ state power. Drawing on Agamben's political theology, Bourdieu's notion of symbolic power and space, and political heritage studies, we argue that the symbolic politics of state glorification can ...

Very high energy cosmic gamma rays from radio and x-ray pulsars [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
This thesis is concerned with the detection of very high energy cosmic gamma-rays from isolated pulsars and X-ray binary sources using the atmospheric Cerenkov technique. A general introduction to gamma ray detection techniques is followed by adscription

The Normative Turn: Back to Hobhouse?

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Supporters of a recently announced normative turn in sociology acknowledge that what they recommend is by no means entirely new. However, they have given little attention to an early precursor: the British sociologist Leonard Hobhouse. He focussed on the role of the normative in social life and insisted that sociology could, and must, play an ...

Cosmic ray physics with the ALICE detectors

open access: yes, 2005
ALICE is an experiment devoted to heavy ion physics at LHC. The underground location of the apparatus with 30m of overburden can be exploited for studying cosmic rays through the muons reaching the experiment.

Late Antique Allāh: Ancestral Arabian Religion and the Monotheistic Zeitgeist

open access: yesArabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This essay addresses the ongoing scholarly tension between the monotheistic interpretations of late pre‐Islamic Arabian religion, pioneered by G. Hawting and P. Crone, and the traditional accounts of rampant Arabian polytheism found in later Islamic literary sources.
