First Application of Weak Lensing Peak Steepness Statistics to HSC Year 1 Data: Effectively Probing Halo Density Profiles

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
As a new probe, weak lensing (WL) peak steepness statistics are sensitive to the density profile of halos, which encodes important information about baryonic feedback and dark matter properties, leading to a promising means to statistically constrain ...

Review of local non-Gaussianity from multi-field inflation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Byrnes C, Choi K-Y. Review of local non-Gaussianity from multi-field inflation. Advances in astronomy. 2010;2010:1-18.We review models which generate a large non-Gaussianity of the local form. We first briefly consider three models which generate the non-

Life, but Not as We Know It: Why Fine‐Tuning Arguments Fail

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Definitions of “life” and theories of life are systematically neglected in arguments for and from fine‐tuning. Despite claims to be neutral about the definition of “life,” fine‐tuning arguments generally presuppose that life requires a form of structural complexity only afforded by physicochemical complexity of the sort with which we are ...

Galaxy Phase-space and Field-level Cosmology: The Strength of Semianalytic Models

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Semianalytic models are a widely used approach to simulate galaxy properties within a cosmological framework, relying on simplified yet physically motivated prescriptions.

Testing the Standard Cosmological Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This thesis exploits the wealth of information contained in the existing cosmological surveys, and demonstrates how the use of tools such as two-point statistics permit the extraction of such information.

The Impacts of Weather Variability and Shocks on Farmers and Indigenous Peoples' Consumption: Evidence From Panama

open access: yesReview of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Weather variability and shocks pose significant challenges for tropical developing countries, making it crucial to understand their effects on consumption to address the existing deficiencies among the most vulnerable groups. This study examines the impact of weather variability and shocks on household consumption in Panama, utilizing repeated

The clustering of dark matter, haloes & galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this thesis I study the spatial distribution of galaxies, haloes and dark matter particles using a suite of state-of-art cosmological N-body simulations of the growth structure in the Universe.

The Right to Exist as the Foundation of Equal Citizenship: An Ontological Inquiry of State‐Citizen Relations in Türkiye

open access: yesStudies 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. Previous studies have long documented the marginalized status of Alevis within Turkish society and their ongoing struggle for recognition; however, they have overwhelmingly framed the

Windy Metropolis—Part 1: Animation as method

open access: yesAnthropology and Humanism, Volume 51, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Based on fieldwork in Stuttgart from 2022 to 2025, the animation Wind Witnesses is a fictionalization of the sweeping wave of microclimate protests in the 2000s, demanding the protection of fresh air corridors (Frischluftschneisen) as nonhuman entities threatened by the conversion of ostensibly empty spaces into buildings.

Cosmological Constraints from Full-scale Clustering and Galaxy–Galaxy Lensing with DESI DR1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present constraints on cosmic structure growth from the analysis of galaxy clustering and galaxy–galaxy lensing with galaxies from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Data Release 1. Our analysis includes four samples drawn from the Bright
