Perturbation Theory in Nonstandard Cosmology

Advances in Astrophysics, 2019
We explore a nonstandard model for the Universe in which we take a vacuum solution of Einstein’s equation as background and introduce visible matter and radiation as perturbations. The perturbation theory is greatly simplified by using the mapping on the inner Schwarzschild solution.

Inferring Io's Internal Properties by Combining Gravity Measurements and Volcanic Activity

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract With its extreme geological activity, Io represents an archetype for tidally heated exoplanets/moons and provides insight into early stages of terrestrial planet evolution. Decades of ground‐based observations and multiple space missions have refined our understanding of Io, yet it remains debated where inside Io the tidal heating takes place.

Aspects of D-brane inflation [PDF]

, 2013
Inflation has been suggested as a solution to cosmological problems but it ultimately needs to be derived from a fundamental theory such as string theory.

Preserved Through Hyperaridity, 150 Million Years of Exhumation and Strike‐Slip Deformation in the Atacama Coastal Cordillera

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Coastal Cordillera of northern Chile, in the forearc of the Andean subduction zone, provides an ideal site to evaluate exhumation above the oldest active subduction under extreme aridity. This range lies parallel to a sediment‐starved trench, has experienced hyperaridity since the Miocene, and is transected by the ∼1,000‐km‐long Atacama ...

Amidst (waste) abundance: world‐making and struggles in hosting a municipal landfill in the Bolivian lowlands Au milieu de l'abondance (de déchets) : fabrication du monde et luttes liées à la gestion d'une décharge municipale dans les basses terres de Bolivie

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 32, Issue 3, Page 907-926, September 2026.
In recent decades, solid waste has proliferated worldwide, becoming a pressing global issue. This article explores the role of Indigenous people dwelling within and upon emerging waste scenarios, with a specific focus on involved forms of sociality and ontological contestation. Drawing on the case of a municipal landfill sited on a Guarani community in

The birth of an earth being: ‘Rights of nature’ in Brazilian Amazonia and elsewhere Naissance d'un être de la terre : « droits de la nature » en Amazonie brésilienne et ailleurs

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 32, Issue 3, Page 833-851, September 2026.
In June 2023, the Laje River, located in the traditional territory of the Wari’ Indigenous people in Rondônia, Brazil, was declared a legal entity, an earth being, with rights, following the co‐ordinated action of an indigenous councillor and non‐indigenous activists.

Gauge-invariant cosmological perturbations in general teleparallel gravity

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
We study linear cosmological perturbations in the most general teleparallel gravity setting, where gravity is mediated by the torsion and nonmetricity of a flat connection alongside the metric.

Against Pluriversality: Epistemology, Ideology, and the Disavowal of Capitalist Antagonism

Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent years have witnessed a dramatic surge of interest in decolonial pluriversality across critical geography, political ecology, and development studies. Advanced most prominently by scholars, such as Walter Mignolo and Arturo Escobar, pluriversality promises a world in which multiple ontologies, epistemologies, and lifeways coexist without

Contextualising Mental Privacy in South Africa: Legal, Ethical, and Socio‐Cultural Considerations With Policy Recommendations

Developing World Bioethics, Volume 26, Issue 3, Page 212-226, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Mental privacy is a growing concern as neurotechnologies and digital mental health tools collect and process sensitive brain‐related data. In South Africa, cultural and religious diversity adds complexity to protecting mental privacy, with traditional healing practices, communal decision‐making, and spiritual beliefs influencing mental health ...

Enchanting the Otherwise: Magical Realism and the Gendered Ontologies of Organizational Becoming

Gender, Work &Organization, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 1707-1719, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper enacts a feminist‐posthumanist reimagining of gender as ontological disturbance, using magical realism not as metaphor but as epistemological method. Rejecting representational logics and the managerial rationalities of organizational realism, we advance gender not as identity or role but as spectral interference—a transversal ...
