Water Beings and Capitalist Relations in India's Sundarbans Delta
American Anthropologist, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article explores entanglements between water cosmologies and capitalist transformation in the Sundarbans delta of West Bengal, India. It traces how “awakened” tidal creeks have been iteratively enclosed as private fisheries from the colonial period to the present, with particular focus on the expansion of commercial aquaculture over the ...

Cosmological constant from canonical transformation in quantum cosmology
Nuclear Physics BWe explore the introduction of the cosmological constant via canonical transformations in cosmology. We consider the Wheeler-DeWitt equation for the cold dark matter (CDM) universe and we construct the Hamilton-Jacobi action for the ΛCDM model, where Λ ...

The Mutable Original: How Chinese Counterfeits Become Nigerian Originals in African Markets
American Anthropologist, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Affordable Chinese copies of Western brands are ubiquitous in African markets. Despite democratizing consumer access, these goods appear to cement hegemonic value hierarchies that rank Chinese or local products as inferior to Western goods.

Anthropology of Consciousness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT When mural art in indigenous communities is commissioned as a participatory project, several methodological, epistemological, and aesthetic questions arise. This text proposes a horizontal and investigative approach to what we can simply call ‘muralism in the A'i Cofán community context,’ not as significant works executed in communities, but ...

Timing the Sacred: A Multi‐Step Chronological Framework for the Llullaillaco Inca Burial
Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Absolute radiocarbon dating offers high precision, but its application to historical contexts, such as the Inca civilization, requires a rigorous methodological approach. This research examines methods to enhance chronological accuracy through a case study of artifacts from the Llullaillaco Capacocha sacrifice.

Dynamical dark energy in 0’B braneworlds
European Physical Journal C: Particles and FieldsWe build a novel realization of dark bubble cosmology in non-supersymmetric string theory. Among the simplest models in ten dimensions, the type 0’B orientifold is the unique option which yields a scale-separated construction.

Topology‐based Visual Analysis of Hydrothermal Plumes
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Hydrothermal plumes are turbulent structures of intense heat and mineral smoke that rise and disperse into the deep ocean. Existing models generally characterize these systems as a single axisymmetric plume originating from a point source. However, this assumption breaks down in weakly venting, spatially distributed systems, where low‐flux ...
