Leviathans and Liberation: Did Whaling Contribute to the Decline of Slavery?

International Social Science Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We test the hypothesis slavery started declining in the United States not due to fossil fuel‐driven industrialization but the exploitation of the bioenergy reserves of the world's largest animals. We predict the population in slavery in US states from 1790 to 1840 as a function of the recorded whaling harvest.

Milagrito: a TeV air-shower array

, 1999
Milagrito, a large, covered water-Cherenkov detector, was the world's first air-shower-particle detector sensitive to cosmic gamma rays below 1 TeV. It served as a prototype for the Milagro detector and operated from February 1997 to May 1998. This paper

Axial muscle‐fibre orientations in larval zebrafish

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 517-533, April 2025.
In 4 days post‐fertilization zebrafish larvae, the fast axial muscle fibres follow helical trajectories that taper towards the tail. Adjacent muscle fibres form substantial angles relative to each other to accommodate this pattern. Using a novel semi‐automatic method, we quantified 3D fibre angles over the whole muscle volume.
