The Impact of Anisotropic Sky Sampling on the Hubble Constant in Numerical Relativity
The Astrophysical JournalWe study the impact of nearby inhomogeneities on an observer’s inference of the Hubble constant. Large-scale structures induce a dependence of cosmological parameters on observer position as well as an anisotropic variance of those parameters across an ...

The Role of Dice in the Emergence of the Probability Calculus
International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary The early development of the probability calculus was clearly influenced by the roll of dice. However, while dice have been cast since time immemorial, documented calculations on the frequency of various dice throws date back only to the mid‐13th century.

The ANT‐Mobilities Framework: Transectionality and a Post‐Materialist Historical Sociology
Sociology Lens, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The ANT‐Mobilities framework synthesizes Actor‐Network Theory, the mobilities paradigm, and historical sociology to analyze complex social transformations. This paper develops the framework through empirical engagement with post‐disaster rehabilitation networks following the 2005 Pakistan earthquake, demonstrating how crisis contexts generate ...

The Manifold Impacts of Management Research
Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.Abstract Management scholarship's apparent lack of impact is a misconception based on the presumption that impact involves a direct and visible influence of papers or research projects on management practice. Theory‐building impacts management practice in diverse, sometimes indirect and unnoticed, manifold ways.
