Representing camp: Constructing macaroni masculinity in eighteenth century visual satire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This article asks how ‘Camp,’ as defined in Sontag’s 1964 essay, ‘Notes on Camp,’ might provide a valuable framework for the analysis of late eighteenth-century satirical prints, specifically those featuring images of the so-called ‘macaroni.’ Discussing

Universal Conductance Fluctuations in Quantum Anomalous Hall Insulators

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Universal conductance fluctuations are observed in mesoscopic quantum anomalous Hall insulators. Two distinct fluctuation patterns are identified, arising from different interference processes of bulk and chiral edge states, respectively. These findings unveil rich quantum interference phenomena in quantum anomalous Hall insulators and provide insights

“Tear‐And‐Stack” Twisted SrTiO3 Moiré Superlattices for Precise Interfacial Reconstruction and Polar Topology

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The tear‐and‐stack method enables the creation of twisted SrTiO3 bilayers with accurate twist‐angle control, which yield atomically sharp oxide moiré superlattices with emergent exotic topological polar vortices, thereby opening a new pathway for twistronics based on 2D‐like non‐van der Waals oxides.

Cultural Haunting and the Trace of the Colonial Other in Arthur Conan Doyle's Short Fiction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In Home Truths: Fictions of the South Asian Diaspora in Britain (2002), Susheila Nasta argues that “the arrival in Britain of several generations of black and Asian 'immigrants' in the period following decolonization and Independence was not simply the ...

Meissner Effect and Nonreciprocal Charge Transport in Non‐Topological 1T‐CrTe2/FeTe Heterostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates interface‐induced superconductivity (Tc ∼12 K) with a robust Meissner effect and pronounced nonreciprocal transport in epitaxial 1T‐CrTe2/FeTe heterostructures, where 1T‐CrTe2 is a 2D ferromagnet, and FeTe is an antiferromagnetic metal.

Revising the Lessons of the Masters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Themes of authentication and displacement explored by Henry James in The Portrait of a Lady, a novel later refigured by W. Somerset Maugham in his The Razor’s Edge, have been adapted by V.S. Naipaul in Half a Life.

Atomically Resolved Acoustic Dynamics Coupled with Magnetic Order in a Van der Waals Antiferromagnet

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Magnetically coupled acoustic phonon modes (f1, f2, f3) are captured by ultrafast X‐ray diffraction in a prototypical van der Waals antiferromagnet FePS3, including their atomic displacement vectors (u) and the acoustic propagation wave vectors (k). Notably, the atomic displacement vector and amplitude of these modes, represented by the direction and ...

Migrantes africanos en Buenos Aires: Entre estigmatización y exotización

open access: yesUniversitas Humanística, 2015
African Migrants in Buenos Aires: between Stigma and Exoticization Abstract Since the 1990s decade, but especially since 2000, immigrants coming mostly from West Africa, have gradually weaved the contours of a transatlantic south-south migration device
