Autopsy, deathways, and intercultural healthcare in the southern Peruvian Andes Autopsie, pratiques mortuaires et soins de santé interculturels dans le sud des Andes péruviennes

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
While death remains a popular topic for anthropology, relatively few ethnographic accounts consider the modern bureaucratic processes accompanying it. One such process is public health autopsy, which scholars have largely taken for granted. Existing analysis has regarded it as a form of ‘cultural brokering’ and autopsy reluctance in communities is seen,

This paper examines the behavior of the pre‐IPO token market around private funding events, such as venture ...

Global parameter-space correlations of coherent searches for continuous gravitational waves

open access: yes, 2005
The space of phase-parameters (sky-position, frequency, spindowns) of a coherent matched-filtering search for continuous gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars shows strong global correlations (``circles in the sky'').

The effect of timing noise on targeted and narrow-band coherent searches for continuous gravitational waves from pulsars

open access: yes, 2015
Most searches for continuous gravitational-waves from pulsars use Taylor expansions in the phase to model the spin-down of neutron stars. Studies of pulsars demonstrate that their electromagnetic (EM) emissions suffer from \emph{timing noise}, small ...
