Modeling the Paths from L2 Use and Socio‐Affective Variables to Communication Skills: A Mixed‐Methods Approach

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous research demonstrated that communication anxiety reduces L2 learners' willingness to communicate and communication frequency, but left unexplored its impact on performance. The current mixed‐methods study investigated factors impacting L2 communication skills.

Symmetric Cosmology: The Scaling of Indeterminacy from Norton's Dome to the Hubble Horizon

open access: yes
This manuscript serves as the official experimental sequel to the Tri-Scale Transition framework established in Maestrini 2025. It bridges the gap between theoretical cosmology and laboratory scale physics by applying Symmetric Cosmology to the classical problem of Nortons Dome.

Estimating crippling loss from hunting with multistate models: a case study on northern bobwhites

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Hunting as a recreational pursuit provides an important ecosystem service worldwide. Harvest management plays a vital role in regulating wildlife take to ensure long‐term population sustainability and meet value‐based objectives (e.g. hunter satisfaction). However, managers rarely have complete control or observability of harvest mortality.

Mechanism of Quasi‐Power‐Frequency Resonant Overvoltage Triggered by Multiple Lightning Strikes in High‐Voltage Alternating Current Systems Equipped With Shunt Reactor

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the generation mechanism of quasi‐power‐frequency resonant overvoltage triggered by multiple lightning strikes in high‐voltage alternating current (HVAC) systems equipped with shunt reactors. Based on field measurements from a 500 kV AC system, equivalent and simplified circuit models have been established to analyse ...

NOCTURNAL INFORMALITY: Rethinking the Temporal Politics of Urban Informality

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban informality has long been theorized as a spatial condition of urban life—an expression of negotiation, improvisation, and survival within the uneven terrains of legality and governance. Yet this emphasis on space has obscured the temporalities through which informality is lived, governed, and contested. This essay develops the concept of
