Lactation, Childrearing, and Gender Justice

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article, I discuss the significance of early infant feeding choices for the goal of gender justice. Focusing on human lactation practices, I identify Exclusive Gestational Nursing (EGN) as the norm in advanced industrial societies, which creates the expectation and permission for gestators, and only gestators, to nurse children, and ...

Gauge Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking in Five Dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
PhDIn this thesis we focus on the construction of models in which a supersymmetry breaking hidden sector is located on one fixed point of an extra dimensional interval and the effects are gauge mediated across this interval to the other fixed point ...

Data‐Driven Insights into Hyperkinetic Disorders in Neurodevelopmental Syndromes and Epileptic Encephalopathies

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Childhood‐onset hyperkinetic movement disorders occur in a range of genetic conditions. Recently, there has been an increase in recognition of hyperkinetic movement disorders, mainly dystonia, chorea and dyskinesia, with monogenic conditions associated with neurodevelopmental delay (NDD) and also with developmental and epileptic ...

The Long Trajectory of Rubber Physics: 3500+ Years and Counting

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Natural rubber's trajectory is traced from Mesoamerican use of Castilla elastica through vulcanization and the pneumatic tire to macromolecular physics and modern solid‐state refrigeration. Illustrations of C. elastica and an H. brasiliensis plantation frame the historical progression from indigenous material, then industrial crop and on to advanced ...

Uncovering quasi-degenerate Kaluza-Klein Electro-Weak gauge bosons with top asymmetries at the LHC

open access: yes, 2013
By exploiting the correlation between charge and spin polarisation asymmetries in t-tbar, we show that combining the two observables could identify the presence of quasi-degenerate states in a resonant signal at the LHC.

Generative AI—the Transgression of Technology

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article offers a systems‐theoretical analysis of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) grounded in Niklas Luhmann's sociology of technology. It addresses a central conceptual problem: How GenAI can be understood within a theoretical framework that has traditionally defined technology as a means of stabilising action through causal ...

Traces of Extra Dimensions in Cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this thesis, we discuss the observational consequences of extra dimensions on cosmological phenomena. We begin with an overview of extra dimensions, from the initial ideas of Kaluza and Klein to the more recent concept of braneworld models and in ...

The Reflexive Turn in Systems Engineering: A Disciplinary Response to Complexity

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Future of Systems Engineering (FuSE) programme has called for the discipline to evolve as a transdiscipline capable of engaging complex eco‐socio‐technical challenges. Yet the pace of that evolution has been slower than the arguments for it would predict. This article examines why.

Possibility of hypothetical stable micro black hole production at future 100 TeV collider

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2017
We study the phenomenology of TeV-scale black holes predicted in theories with large extra dimensions, under the further assumption that they are absolutely stable. Our goal is to present an exhaustive analysis of safety of the proposed 100 TeV collider,

When sharing becomes shameful: atmospheres of class formation in Namibia Quand le partage devient honteux : ambiances de formation de classes en Namibie

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Anthropologists have long shown that asking for food in times of need is morally valued in rural Namibia. Yet among the Damara pastoralists with whom I work, people now increasingly describe feeling shame (taob) when they ask for food. In this article, I trace this shift to the affective dynamics of social class formation.
