How to Fish With Respect: A Transformation of Human‐Fish Relations in Riverside Amazonia

American Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riverside inhabitants of the Middle Xingu River Basin, in the Brazilian Amazonia, frequently say that it is important to respect animals and the forest spirits who protect them. In recent decades, however, the development of an iced fish industry in the region has changed what respect means and how it is expressed when it comes to fishing ...

Theoretical Physics, 2017
From theoretical point of view and not being in contradiction with current observational data, the cosmic strings should have fundamentally different origin and are characterized by wide range of energies. The paper is devoted to search for possible cosmological observational tests on superstring theory, among them to identification of observational ...

Observational Constraints on Loop Quantum Cosmology

Physical Review Letters, 2011
In the inflationary scenario of loop quantum cosmology in the presence of inverse-volume corrections, we give analytic formulas for the power spectra of scalar and tensor perturbations convenient to compare with observations. Since inverse-volume corrections can provide strong contributions to the running spectral indices, inclusion of terms higher ...

Phantasmic Encounters in the Arctic: Haunting Materialities Beyond the Ghosts of War

Anthropology of Consciousness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the vast north, ghostly experiences are common for locals and outsiders alike. Here, we explore how cultural‐natural attributes, like remoteness and extreme seasonal variation, compound experiences of the haunting in visceral ways. This provides the Arctic region with an unusually pronounced baseline of other‐than‐human agency, which in the
