A Scalable Gaussian Process Approach to Shear Mapping with MuyGPs

The Astrophysical Journal
Analysis of cosmic shear is an integral part of understanding structure growth across cosmic time, which in turn provides us with information about the nature of dark energy.

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1197-1234, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Gravitational lensing by exotic objects

, 2017
This paper reviews a phenomenological approach to the gravitational lensing by exotic objects such as the Ellis wormhole lens, where the exotic lens objects may follow a non-standard form of the equation of state or may obey a modified gravity theory. A

CFHTLenS: Mapping the Large Scale Structure with Gravitational Lensing [PDF]

, 2013
We present a quantitative analysis of the largest contiguous maps of projected mass density obtained from gravitational lensing shear. We use data from the 154 deg2 covered by the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Lensing Survey.

Eastward Growth of the Tibetan Plateau Linked to Cenozoic Orogenic Wedge Deformation and Fluctuating Melt Sources

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The India–Asia collision continuously loads the Tibetan Plateau (TP), driving its Cenozoic eastward growth. This process has caused extensive crustal deformation and a diverse magmatic response. Here, we report on newly identified 35−6.5 Ma granitoids from Kangding area in southeastern (SE) TP.
