Opportunities and Alliances: The Relational Dynamics of Criminal Collusion in Latin America

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Based on ethnographic fieldwork in Mexico and judicial wiretap analysis in Argentina, this paper shows that collusion between state actors and violent non‐state actors operates through fluid and competitive relational networks rather than stable hierarchies or fixed institutional arrangements.

Impact of retinal break location on surgical outcomes in primary uncomplicated rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: Superior versus inferior breaks

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare the anatomical and functional outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for primary uncomplicated rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) with superior versus inferior retinal breaks. Methods This retrospective study included 675 eyes of 675 patients, of which 476 had exclusively superior breaks and 199 had at least one ...

Soil wetting and drying processes influence stone artefact distribution in clay‐rich soils: A case study from Middle Gidley Island in Murujuga, northwest Western Australia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.

A Lattice Model of Gravity from Competition for Information Capacity: Identification of Necessary Conditions and of the Resulting Theory

A lattice model containing no term corresponding to gravity is used to ask whether gravitational phenomena arise from competition for information capacity alone. The answer is negative, and the result of the work is the shape of that negative answer. We classify what must be added in order to reproduce linearised general relativity into six necessary ...

The Materiality of the Cloggs Cave Rockshelter's Painting, GunaiKurnai Country (East Gipplsland), Southeastern Australia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The materiality of the white pigment motif at the Cloggs Cave rockshelter, near Buchan in GunaiKurnai Country (southeastern Australia), contains details about the cultural and environmental contexts in which the art was created and preserved. Here, we (1) present physicochemical analyses of the pigment composition; (2) explore implications for
