Human Rights and Space: Reflections on the Implications of Human Activity in Outer Space on Human Rights Law [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
What are the implications of human activity in outer space for international human rights law? In this article, we reflect on these questions with a view to advancing dialogue on the intersection between space law and human rights.

State Liability for Space Object Collisions: The Proper Interpretation of ‘Fault’ for the Purposes of International Space Law

open access: yes, 2018
When damage is caused by a space object in outer space, typically through a collision with another space object, international space law’s Liability Convention provides a mechanism for compensation for the injured state.

Recursive Subdivision of Urban Space and Zipf's law [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2014, 395: 392-404, 2012
Zipf's law can be used to describe the rank-size distribution of cities in a region. It was seldom employed to research urban internal structure. In this paper, we demonstrate that the space-filling process within a city follows Zipf's law and can be characterized with the rank-size rule. A model of spatial disaggregation of urban space is presented to

Anisotropic Inflation from Extra Dimensions [PDF]

open access: yesPhys.Lett. B382 (1996) 45-52, 1995
Vacuum multidimensional cosmological models with internal spaces being compact $n$-dimensional Lie group manifolds are considered. Products of 3-spheres and $SU(3)$ manifold (a novelty in cosmology) are studied. It turns out that the dynamical evolution of the internal space drives an accelerated expansion of the external world (power law inflation ...
