Mapping the dynamics, star-formation rates, and chemical properties of galaxies with integral field spectroscopy [PDF]
, 2005 Major advances in the development of instruments for eight and ten meter class telescopes are revolutionising our understanding of galaxy formation. In particular, Integral Field Spectrographs (which produce a three dimensional {x, y, velocity) map of a ...

Observational aspects of gravitational lensing [PDF]
, 1990 Various systematic optical surveys of multiply lensed extragalactic objects presently being conducted are reviewed to describe gravitational lens candidates and the effects of gravitational lensing.

Varying hydraulic strategies within leaves, stems and roots of coexisting desert shrubs
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Effective and continuous root‐to‐leaf hydraulic transport is crucial for plant survival and growth during drought. However, the capacity to resist hydraulic dysfunction remains understudied in leaves and roots, especially for desert shrubs.

, 2010 The galaxy intrinsic alignment is a severe challenge to precision cosmic shear measurement. We propose self-calibrating the induced gravitational shear-galaxy intrinsic ellipticity correlation (the GI correlation) in weak lensing surveys with photometric

The Astrophysical JournalWe use microlensing to probe the inner broad line region (BLR) of the lensed quasar SDSS J1004+4112, finding evidence of substructure. We study the recurrent microlensing events observed in the blue wing of the C IV emission line in image A of this ...

Changing practices, not just rules: Rethinking the institutionalisation of deliberative engagement
Australian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.Abstract When Victoria introduced legislation requiring all 79 councils to adopt deliberative engagement, 92% continued practices the legislation had just removed. This paradox reveals a fundamental challenge in embedding democratic innovations within existing systems of government: legislation signals commitment but cannot disrupt entrenched ...

Modeling Binary Lenses and Sources with the BAGLE Python Package
The Astrophysical JournalGravitational microlensing is a powerful tool that can be used to find and measure the mass of isolated and dark compact objects. In many microlensing events, the lens, the source, or both may be binary systems.

When Thriving for More Collapses the System: The Academic Reproduction of Uncaring Structures
British Journal of Management, EarlyView.Abstract This essay argues that the widening gap between aspirational aims and visionary orientations and the prevailing practices in neoliberal academia stems from deeper, historically rooted, market‐based logics shaping our institutions, increasingly governed by economic values and academic subjectivities therein.

Quasar Milli-lensing and Cold Dark Matter (TNG50) Subhaloes. I. Image Splitting
The Astrophysical JournalWe use numerical mass density profiles from the TNG50 simulation to study the impact of gravitational milli-lensing by dark matter subhaloes on the images of lensed quasars.

Who Is a Patriotic Man? Rethinking Hegemonic Masculinity in Modern Iran
Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article examines the analytical viability of the concept of “hegemonic masculinity” in the historical study of masculinities in early‐twentieth‐century Iran (c.1890–1941). It argues that a radical problematizing of the concepts of hegemony, class, “the West,” and patriotism helps us move beyond the binaries of Western‐Iranian and modern ...
