Building Community Amidst the Institutional Whiteness of Graduate Study: Black Joy and Maroon Moves in an Academic Marronage

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article reflects on the construction of a supportive community of Black Afro‐diasporic graduate students and their supervisors researching issues relating to race in the field of education in Australia. It draws on the concept of marronage—a term rooted in the fugitive act of becoming a maroon, where enslaved people enacted an escape in ...

Automating Sustainability: How Climate Action Unlocks the ESG Potential of Industrial Robotics

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The convergence of Industry 4.0 and global sustainability goals presents a critical paradox: while automation drives efficiency, its net impact on comprehensive environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance remains contested. This study investigates the relationship between industrial robot and country‐level ESG performance across 63

Entanglement between two charge qubits taking account the Kerr media

Физика волновых процессов и радиотехнические системы
Background. The need to implement controlled coupling between qubits, which are the logical elements of quantum devices such as quantum computers and quantum networks, requires, along with the use of traditional methods, the development of new, more ...

Modulational instability in nonlocal nonlinear Kerr media [PDF]

Physical Review E, 2001
We study modulational instability (MI) of plane waves in nonlocal nonlinear Kerr media. For a focusing nonlinearity we show that, although the nonlocality tends to suppress MI, it can never remove it completely, irrespectively of the particular profile of the nonlocal response function.

Predicting seizure freedom in the postpartum period: Findings from the Maternal Outcomes and Neurodevelopmental Effects of Antiepileptic Drugs study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to evaluate whether seizure freedom in pregnancy predicts seizure freedom in the postpartum period in women with epilepsy (WWE). Prior studies have shown that seizure freedom prior to conception strongly predicts seizure freedom during pregnancy.

Exploring phase space properties of nonlinear Kerr-cavity interacting with a qubit: Spontaneous-emission damping effect

Alexandria Engineering Journal
In our work, we have explored the phase space nonlinear coherent-Kerr-cavity nonclassicality and purity loss induced by off-resonant intensity-dependent cavity-qubit interactions under atomic spontaneous-emission dissipation effect. The generation of the

The Unintended Consequences of Sugar‐Sweetened Beverage Taxes on Sales and Prices of Beer Beverages

Health Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper estimates the causal effect of Berkeley's sugar‐sweetened beverage (SSB) tax on beer purchases and prices using retail scanner data from 2014 to 2015. Applying both synthetic control and difference‐in‐differences (DID) approaches, we find that the tax reduced beer purchases within Berkeley by 8.9%, while having a negligible effect ...
