On Resumming Inflationary Perturbations beyond One-loop

open access: yes, 2008
It is well known that the correlation functions of a scalar field in a quasi-de Sitter space exhibit at the loop level cumulative infra-red effects proportional to the total number of e-foldings of inflation.

Non-Gaussianity from Axion Monodromy Inflation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We study the primordial non-Gaussinity predicted from simple models of inflation with a linear potential and superimposed oscillations. This generic form of the potential is predicted by the axion monodromy inflation model, that has recently been ...

Prevalence and Mechanisms of Sustained Force Production in the Musculature of the Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata)

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The southern alligator lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) exhibits prolonged mate‐holding behavior. This behavior maybe be underpinned by a phenomenon known as sustained force, observed in the jaw muscles of this species, in which the muscle fails to relax between subsequent contractions.

What are the vector species of the Oropouche virus?

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Here, we review the timeline of Oropouche virus (OROV) detection in various hematophagous Diptera, from 1955 to date, including mosquitoes and midges. All vector competence experiments also are described. The results suggest that Culicoides are the primary vectors.

Separate and synergistic anti‐herbivore effects of non‐glandular trichomes and leaf chemistry in a desert plant

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant defence phenotypes commonly integrate physical and chemical traits that may act synergistically against herbivores, but empirical evidence for synergy as a defence strategy remains limited.

Probing correlations of early magnetic fields using mu-distortion

open access: yes, 2014
The damping of a non-uniform magnetic field between the redshifts of about $10^4$ and $10^6$ injects energy into the photon-baryon plasma and causes the CMB to deviate from a perfect blackbody spectrum, producing a so-called $\mu$-distortion.

Does the detection of primordial gravitational waves exclude low energy inflation? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We show that a detectable tensor-to-scalar ratio $(r\ge 10^{-3})$ on the CMB scale can be generated even during extremely low energy inflation which saturates the BBN bound $\rho_{\rm inf}\approx (30 {\rm MeV})^4$.

Tactile tensions: uncertainty, mutuality, and therianthropic nightmares in Highland Odisha Tact et tensions : incertitude, mutualité et cauchemars thérianthropiques dans les hautes terres de l'Odisha

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
In the central highlands of Odisha, India, Kutia Kondh families navigate a precarious reality shaped by productive autonomy, decentralized authority, and material and relational uncertainty. Abundance and destitution are finely balanced in a world where humans, animals, ancestors, and spirits are co‐present and co‐dependent but also opaque and ...
