The Momentum of ‘Developed’: Bodies of Water, Aging Bodies and Malta's Interventions at the UN
History, EarlyView.Abstract Histories of major powers continue to shape how many scholars conceptualize internationalism. By focusing on Malta's interventions at the UN challenges, this article challenges such narrative. In particular, it examines Arvid Pardo's 1967 petition that the seabed be reconceived and protected as the ‘common heritage of mankind’ and Vincent ...

Clustering and redshift-space distortions in QSO and galaxy surveys [PDF]
, 2006 In this thesis, we exploit the potential of existing QSO and galaxy surveys for investigating the nature of the large scale structure in the Universe. A detailed analysis of clustering and redshift- space distortions allows us to constrain cosmological ...

Insect Science, EarlyView.The Australian giant wood moth (Endoxyla cinereus) feeds within the galls of scale insects (Apiomorpha) before transitioning into its wood‐boring eucalypt larval phase. This transitionary phase may be key to its multi‐year development, at the end of which it can produce over 100 000 eggs.

Origin and Evolution of Large-scale Magnetic Fields [PDF]
, 2015 Magnetic elds are ubiquitous at all scales in the Universe and have been observed in galaxies and clusters of galaxies via observations of di use radio emission and Faraday Rotation Measures.

Spatially resolved spectroscopy of faint star-forming galaxies & their environments in the high redshift universe [PDF]
, 2011 This thesis is concerned with the spectroscopic observations of distant galaxies, 1 < z < 5. The galaxies presented here are intrinsically faint such that their ux is dominated by ordinary star formation rather than galaxy-galaxy merging and/or ...

The Astrophysical JournalThe Local Volume Complete Cluster Survey is an ongoing program to observe nearly a hundred low-redshift X-ray-luminous galaxy clusters (redshifts 0.03 < z < 0.12 and X-ray luminosities in the 0.1–2.4 keV band L _X500c > 10 ^44 erg s ^−1 ) with the Dark ...

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.The increase in salinity leads to changes in the gut microbiota and metabolites of Trachemys scripta elegans, affecting the synthesis and secretion of neurotransmitters or precursors, which can inhibit the secretion of reproductive hormones and affect the self‐renewal and differentiation process of spermatogonial stem cells.

The evolution of dark matter substructure [PDF]
, 2001 This thesis investigates the dynamical evolution of systems orbiting within deeper potentials. Initially we use a simple satellite-halo interaction to study the dynamical processes that act on orbiting systems and we compare these results to analytical ...

Star clusters as age tracers of the age-metallicity relation of the small magellanic cloud [PDF]
, 2009 In my Thesis, I determined ages of Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) star clusters that have formed during the galaxys entire lifetime.
