2MASS Studies of Differential Reddening across Three Massive Globular Clusters [PDF]
, 2003 J-, H-, and Ks-band data from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) are used to study the effects of differential reddening across the three massive Galactic globular clusters ω Centauri, NGC 6388, and NGC 6441. Evidence is found that variable extinction

Stellar Populations of Highly Magnified Lensed Galaxies: Young Starbursts at z~2 [PDF]
, 2012 We present a comprehensive analysis of the rest-frame UV to near-IR spectral energy distributions and rest-frame optical spectra of four of the brightest gravitationally lensed galaxies in the literature: RCSGA 032727-132609 at z=1.70, MS1512-cB58 at z=2.

Measuring the Slope of the Dust Extinction Law and the Power Spectrum of Dust Clouds Using Differentially Reddened Globular Clusters [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2004 We present 3 methods for measuring the Galactic dust extinction law slope R_V and a method for quantifying fine structure in dust clouds in the direction of differentially-reddened globular clusters. We apply these methods to the low- latitude globular cluster NGC4833 which displays variable extinction/reddening about a mean ~ 1.

A Rare Encounter with Very Massive Stars in NGC 3125-A1 [PDF]
, 2013 Super star cluster A1 in the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 3125 is characterized by broad He\ii \lam1640 emission (full width at half maximum, $FWHM\sim1200$ km s$^{-1}$) of unprecedented strength (equivalent width, $EW=7.1\pm0.4$ \AA).

Human Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Guided by the Actor‐Network Theory (ANT) perspective, this study explores user experiences with the perceived agency of algorithmic technology in the context of talent management (TM) decisions. Through a qualitative analysis of 11 client companies utilizing algorithmic TM decision‐making technology provided by an HR tech service firm, we ...

Confidence intervals for extinction risk: Validating population viability analysis with limited data
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract The assessment of extinction risk remains a key component of IUCN and CITES evaluations. However, it has been argued that, under realistic data limitations, confidence intervals (CIs) for extinction probability often span the entire 0–1 range, rendering such assessments meaningless.

Three-dimensional Reddening Maps of the Magellanic Clouds Constructed by RR Lyrae Stars
The Astronomical JournalWe present the first three-dimensional reddening maps of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC) constructed using fundamental-mode RR Lyrae stars (RRab) from the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) survey.

Empirical extinction coefficients for the GALEX, SDSS, 2MASS and WISE passbands
, 2013 Using the "standard pair" technique of paring stars of almost nil and high extinction but otherwise of almost identical stellar parameters from the SDSS, and combing the SDSS, GALEX, 2MASS and WISE photometry ranging from the far UV to the mid-IR, we ...

Concealed coexistence: Reproductive choice and coercion in Timor‐Leste
Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract Choice is a central concept in reproductive rights. However, a discourse of choice in reproductive health can also mask precisely the act it aims to protect against: coercion. Whilst choice has been explored extensively in studies of reproductive rights and justice, understandings of coercion are fragmented and under‐theorized.
