Cosmological Constant and Axions in String Theory [PDF]
, 2006 String theory axions appear to be promising candidates for explaining cosmological constant via quintessence. In this paper, we study conditions on the string compactifications under which axion quintessence can happen.

On the Limits of Intransitive Coordination
Ratio, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A growing number of authors suggest that concept coordination—the kind of relation we pick out when we say that the concepts of one or more individuals represent something as the same—is not a transitive relation. Here we consider global features of representational systems to break new ground in the assessment of the intransitivity view. From

Studies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite enduring decades of advocacy, Alevi communities in Türkiye find themselves in a constant state of anticipation for acknowledgment from the Turkish state.

The goal of this paper is to analyze in more detail the relationship between Schelling and Newton, with an eye toward the fundamental question that guides Schelling: how can conflicts between ...

Leibniz on Compossibility: Towards a Neo‐Logical Interpretation
Theoria, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Leibniz's concept of compossibility explains why not all possible substances are actualised, thereby resisting Spinoza's necessitarianism. Yet, the precise basis of incompossibility remains unresolved. The influential ‘logical’ interpretation—exemplified by the Hintikka–D'Agostino thesis—locates incompossibility in contradictions among ...

The Greatest Mystery of Futures Studies
FUTURES &FORESIGHT SCIENCE, Volume 8, Issue 2, August 2026.ABSTRACT Futures studies has long lived with a puzzle: every domain the field investigates is already studied by some special science. Three familiar replies—that futures studies extracts insights, takes a longer view, or includes lay perspectives—each capture something real but do not, on closer inspection, individuate the field at the level of its ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract We present a case study of large amplitude, compressional Pc5 waves observed by GOES 13 and 15 at geosynchronous orbit near noon. These waves were excited near the arrival time of two consecutive solar wind dynamic pressure spikes at the magnetopause, the second of which was associated with a large and rapid southward turning of the ...
