Characterization and chronology of charcoal found in the volcanic ashfall that impacted a late Valdivia community in coastal Ecuador

open access: yesActa Palaeobotanica
Several samples of fossilized wood (charcoal) were collected in the Papayita archaeological site, in coastal Ecuador. This carbonized material was encountered inside a layer of volcanic ash that sealed the site. The ash-sized tephra was produced by a sub-

The Petroglyphs of Palpa: Rupestrian art from the Formative Period on the South Coast of Peru

open access: yesArqueología y Sociedad, 2023
This article presents the study of a group of petroglyphs from the Formative period of the Palpa valleys, linked to the Paracas period (800-200 BC) and with the period of transition from Paracas to Nasca, known as Proto Nasca (200-1 BC).

Violence in fishing, hunting, and gathering societies of the Atacama Desert coast: A long-term perspective (10,000 BP-AD 1450).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
In this study, we examine the long-term trajectory of violence in societies that inhabited the coast of the Atacama Desert in northern Chile using three lines of evidence: bioarchaeology, geoarchaeology and socio-cultural contexts (rock art, weapons, and

Transverse Hypercrystals Formed by Periodically Modulated Phonon Polaritons

open access: yesACS Nano, 2023
Photonic crystals and metamaterials are two overarching paradigms for manipulating light. Combining the two approaches leads to hypercrystals: hyperbolic dispersion metamaterials that undergo periodic modulation and mix photonic-crystal-like aspects with hyperbolic dispersion physics.

Period Functions for Maass Wave Forms. I [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Mathematics, 2001
Recall that a Maass wave form on the full modular group Gamma=PSL(2,Z) is a smooth gamma-invariant function u from the upper half-plane H = {x+iy | y>0} to C which is small as y \to \infty and satisfies Delta u = lambda u for some lambda \in C, where Delta = y^2(d^2/dx^2 + d^2/dy^2) is the hyperbolic Laplacian.

A Quality Improvement Initiative to Standardize Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Prophylaxis in Pediatric Patients With Solid Tumors

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about
