‘Turkeys Cannot Vote for Christmas’: Why Epistemic Disobedience in an Anti‐Black World Matters

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Never in the history of global coloniality has the idea of epistemic disobedience been as important as in the 21st century. This is not only because the struggle for decolonisation has shifted from physical confrontation between the coloniser and the colonised into a battle of ideas but also because the former has deployed the idea of ...

Looking at Infrared Background Radiation Anisotropies with Spitzer: Large-scale Anisotropies and Their Implications

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
We use Spitzer/IRAC deep-exposure data covering two significantly larger than before sky areas to construct maps suitable for evaluating source-subtracted fluctuations in the cosmic infrared background (CIB).

A Multifaceted Spatial Analysis of Tomb Distribution in Blemmyan Berenike (Eastern Desert of Egypt)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the spatial and visual organisation of tombs in the post–Roman Berenike located in Egypt's Eastern Desert. Archaeological surveys, remote sensing, geophysical methods, excavations and GIS‐based analyses are used for a comprehensive understanding of the spatial patterns and cultural significance behind the positions and ...

The Target-selection Pipeline for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
In 2021 May, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) began a 5 yr survey of approximately 50 million total extragalactic and Galactic targets. The primary DESI dark-time targets are emission line galaxies, luminous red galaxies, and quasars.

Theory Challenges of the Accelerating Universe [PDF]

, 2006
The accelerating expansion of the universe presents an exciting, fundamental challenge to the standard models of particle physics and cosmology. I highlight some of the outstanding challenges in both developing theoretical models and interpreting without

Stories of coexistence: A narrative inquiry of leopard attacks on people

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Pursuing human–wildlife coexistence is particularly challenging for carnivore species as conflict can negatively impact human livelihood and well‐being. Understanding the social context of how communities perceive conflicts with carnivores, often witnessed in their folklore and stories, can shed light on pathways for fostering coexistence.

Brane cosmology from observational surveys and its comparison with standard FRW cosmology

, 2013
Several dark energy models on the brane are investigated. They are compared with corresponding theories in the frame of 4d Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmology.

COSMOLOGICAL OBSERVATIONS AND BACKREACTION [PDF]

, 2014
Since the very beginning the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker metric has played one of the most important roles in developing cosmology. The underlying assumptions of maximal symmetry have simplified our general view of the Universe but recent developments in observational cosmology, like the discovery of cosmic acceleration, have demonstrated that a more ...
