SURFACE TENSIONS: Roads, Potholes and the Embodied Politics of Driving in Urban India

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 24-43, January 2026.
Abstract In this article I draw on the embodied experience of driving into potholes and on bumpy roads in Hyderabad to show how pockmarked roads become a terrain on which political sensibilities are shaped. Drawing on ethnographic material collected over six years, I analyze how potholes shape driving dispositions in a city that is attempting to brand ...

Feasibility of Solar Tower Plant in Isolated Electricity Systems: A Case Study in Baja California Sur, Mexico

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Islands and remote electricity systems are heavily dependent on imported fossil fuels, resulting in high costs, adverse environmental impacts, and high vulnerability to supply disruption. The implementation of innovative solutions is needed to diversify the energy generation mix, enhance grid reliability, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions on islands.

Endogenous Technology Spillovers in R&D Collaboration Networks

open access: yesThe RAND Journal of Economics, Volume 56, Issue 4, Page 419-443, Winter 2025.
ABSTRACT We introduce an R&D network formation model where firms choose both R&D efforts and collaboration partners. Neighbors in the network benefit from each other's R&D through technology spillovers, and there exists competition effects reflecting strategic substitutability in R&D.

Whole‐genome data shed light on speciation and within‐species differentiation of the Papilio machaon complex around the Mediterranean Basin

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 692-712, October 2025.
Genomic data refine the species boundary of Papilio machaon and confirm the species status of Papilio saharae, with clarification of subspecies delineation of Mediterranean machaon and saharae. A heterogeneous level of genome‐wide heterozygosity between island and continental lineages warrants further taxonomic implications, and there is also evidence ...

Fibrosis‐Guided Ablation in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: A Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 36, Issue 8, Page 2025-2040, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Ablation of fibrotic atrial regions has been suggested to improve the results of atrial fibrillation (AF) catheter ablation. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fibrosis‐guided ablation in addition to pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) among AF patients undergoing ablation through a systematic review of randomized controlled trials ...

Crystallization of Supercooled Liquid Elements Induced by Superclusters Containing Magic Atom Numbers

open access: yesMetals, 2014
A few experiments have detected icosahedral superclusters in undercooled liquids. These superclusters survive above the crystal melting temperature Tm because all their surface atoms have the same fusion heat as their core atoms, and are melted by liquid

European Biometric Borders and (Im)Mobilities in West Africa: Reflections on Migrant Strategies for Border Circumvention and Subversion

open access: yesPolitics &Policy, Volume 53, Issue 1, February 2025.
ABSTRACT This article argues that the European biometric ID installations and securitization practices at West African borders harm African migrants and compromise the security goals of Europe and Africa. Using Niger's experience, I contend that migrants' poor adaption to the biometric border processes is closely connected to their identity conflicts ...
