Observational constraints on Rastall’s cosmology [PDF]
The European Physical Journal C, 2013 Rastall's theory is a modification of General Relativity, based on the non-conservation of the stress-energy tensor. The latter is encoded in a parameter $γ$ such that $γ= 1$ restores the usual $\nabla_νT^{μν} = 0$ law. We test Rastall's theory in cosmology, on a flat Robertson-Walker metric, investigating a two-fluid model and using the type Ia ...

Programmable Sequential 4D Actuation in Multistable Kirigami Metamaterials
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study presents a modular kirigami metamaterial framework enabling programmable multistability and sequential 4D actuation. By coupling geometry‐controlled multistability with material‐dependent recovery kinetics, spatiotemporal deformation can be precisely programmed.

The Made‐in‐Africa Evaluation framework: A decolonial approach to program evaluation
American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract The Made in Africa Evaluation (MAE) framework is a decolonial approach to program evaluation developed by African evaluators over the past 14 years. MAE may be appropriate to community psychologists who practice program evaluation or conduct research in Africa, but little is known about its implementation.

‘Turkeys Cannot Vote for Christmas’: Why Epistemic Disobedience in an Anti‐Black World Matters
Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Never in the history of global coloniality has the idea of epistemic disobedience been as important as in the 21st century. This is not only because the struggle for decolonisation has shifted from physical confrontation between the coloniser and the colonised into a battle of ideas but also because the former has deployed the idea of ...

Reframing Colonial Korea's Forests Through Protection Forests: The Forests of Joseon (1938)
Berichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.This study examines The Forests of Joseon (1938), a forestry survey compiled by Tokumitsu Nobuyuki under Japanese colonial rule, as a key site of epistemic negotiation between imperial forestry science and Korean indigenous knowledge. Focusing on bíbo forests—geomantic forests believed to regulate energy flow between mountains and villages—the paper ...

, 2004 I discuss the classical cosmological tests-- angular size-redshift, flux-redshift, and galaxy number counts-- in the light of the cosmology prescribed by the intepretation of CMB anisotropies. The discussion is somewhat of a primer for physicists, with emphasis upon the possible systematic uncertainties in the observations and their interpretation ...

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Thailand has announced ambitious plans to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including a programme that allows private companies to earn carbon credits from protecting and restoring mangroves. In 2023, the Department of Marine and Coastal Resources (DMCR) began enrolling local communities and private firms in this scheme.

The International Journal of Health Planning and Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and need As the WHO Global Traditional Medicine Strategy 2025–2034 encourages countries to consider integrating traditional, complementary and integrative medicine (TCIM) into health systems, there is a need to clarify the principal scientific, regulatory, ethical, and governance challenges involved. Renewed global attention to TCIM,
