Evaluation of factors affecting greater prairie‐chicken nest and brood survival

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Greater prairie‐chickens Tympanuchus cupido pinnatus in the Flint Hills ecoregion select recently burned grasslands for brooding and nest in areas that have been unburned for 1–3 years, suggesting the need for a mosaic of burn patches. However, it is unknown how patch area, configuration, and proximity to edges within such mosaics affect reproductive ...

Monopoles, strings, and necklaces in SO(10) and E 6

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
We employ a variety of symmetry breaking patterns in SO(10) and E 6 Grand Unified Theories to demonstrate the appearance of topological defects including magnetic monopoles, strings, and necklaces.

Challenging Business Schools Through Subversive Performativity: The Potential of Art‐based Pedagogies

open access: yesBritish Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Business schools are often criticized for reproducing growth‐oriented norms, but alternative pedagogies remain difficult to normalize. Drawing on Butler's theory of subversive performativity, this study examines how art‐based pedagogy enables academics to challenge growth logics in business schools by transforming their identities over time ...

Scaling in necklaces of monopoles and semipoles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Models of symmetry breaking in the early universe can produce networks of cosmic strings threading ’t Hooft-Polyakov monopoles. In certain cases there is a larger global symmetry group and the monopoles split into so-called semipoles.

Modern theatrics of love: desires and consumption in the Indian middle class Le théâtre moderne de l'amour : désirs et consommation dans la classe moyenne indienne

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article analyses class construction amongst the urban Indian middle class, through a novel prism of romantic love, specifically performances of romantic love which in turn highlight anxieties of being middle class. The article explains how a performance of romantic love before marriage is used as a basis by the middle class to claim being global ...

Dynamics of cosmic necklaces [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2001
We perform numerical simulations of cosmic necklaces (systems of monopoles connected to two strings each) and investigate the conditions under which monopoles annihilate. When the total monopole energy is large compared to the string energy, we find that the string motion is no longer periodic, and thus the strings will be chopped up by self ...

A Family Affair: War, Agency and Female Epistolary Networks in Renaissance Italy

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article draws on the largely unexplored epistolary archive of dozens of women who were born or married into military families in northern Italy around the time of the first phase of the Italian Wars (1494–1530). Building on recent work on early modern agency, patriarchy, networks and emotional communities, the article reconstructs and ...

UNDERSCREENED KONDO NECKLACE [PDF]

open access: yesModern Physics Letters B, 1992
It has been suggested recently by Gan, Coleman, and Andrei that studying the underscreened Kondo problem may help to understand the nature of magnetism in heavy fermion systems. Motivated by Doniach’s work on the S=1/2 Kondo necklace, we introduce the underscreened Kondo necklace models with S>1/2.

The Not‐So‐Neue Frau: Weimar Berlin's Modern Women and Generational Identity After 1945

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article studies the post‐1945 literary careers of Gabriele Tergit and Ilse Langner, two ageing German writers. Both had enjoyed promising careers as young women in Weimar Berlin, but Nazism and war disrupted their professional trajectories in varying ways. After 1945, they tried and failed to recapture their Weimar‐era success, eventually
