A Strong Gravitational Lens Is Worth a Thousand Dark Matter Halos: Inference on Small-scale Structure Using Sequential Methods

The Astrophysical Journal
Strong gravitational lenses are a singular probe of the Universe’s small-scale structure—they are sensitive to the gravitational effects of low-mass (

Supervising Your In‐Group? How Social Identification Shapes Financial Sector Regulatory Leniency

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Both practitioners and governance scholars recognize the importance of external oversight, especially in regulated industries like the financial sector. However, the failure of financial sector regulators and enforcement officials (supervisors) to act is often cited as a primary cause of ineffective governance.

Lens Modeling of STRIDES Strongly Lensed Quasars Using Neural Posterior Estimation

The Astronomical Journal
Strongly lensed quasars can be used to constrain cosmological parameters through time-delay cosmography. Models of the lens masses are a necessary component of this analysis.

A review of the supercritical state of eruption‐fed volcanic density currents in subaerial and subaqueous settings

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Subaerial Pyroclastic Density Currents (PDCs) and Subaqueous Eruption‐Fed Density Currents (SEFDCs) produced during volcanic eruptions can present major hazards to surrounding communities and ecosystems. The bedforms deposited by these volcanic density currents can provide insights into the nature of transport and depositional processes, which

Formation process of the gravel‐dominated deposit from the 2011 Tohoku‐oki tsunami in Ofunato, northeastern Japan, inferred by integrating sedimentology and tsunami modelling

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tsunami deposits serve as geological records of past events and are essential for understanding the occurrence and dynamics of tsunamis. However, conventional research has largely focused on sandy and boulder deposits, leaving gravel‐dominated tsunami deposits comparatively underexplored; furthermore, their characteristics and formation ...

Bed‐scale quantitative discrimination of hyperpycnites from intrabasinal turbidites—Results from a channelised slope system in the Upper Carboniferous Westward Ho! Formation, United Kingdom

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Features considered indicative of hyperpycnites and intrabasinal turbidites overlap. Outcrop study presented here suggests that the Westward Ho! Formation forms an 800 m high deepwater‐slope system dominated by hyperpycnites. Taking this unit, and other successions where hyperpycnites have been described, as having been deposited solely from ...

Anti‐Astrotropik — Outer Space, Technology and Resistance in the Tropics

Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, EarlyView.
This paper traces an intellectual and geographical arc of thinking about outer space in the tropics, connecting Peter Redfield's Space in the Tropics: From Convicts to Rockets in French Guiana (2000), Sean T. Mitchell's Constellations of Inequality: Space, Race, and Utopia in Brazil (2017) and Asif Siddiqi's Cosmic Fragments: Dislocation and Discontent

What's Hard Is Yet to Come: Critical Junctures and Changing Gender Beliefs at the Transition From College to Career

Sociological Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drawing on 71 interviews with 20 respondents across four waves before and after their graduation, we explore whether and how the transition from college to career can lead to new experiences with and understandings of gender inequality for elite graduates of color. While all respondents experienced or witnessed gender inequality and recognized

Finding Stars: Mapping the Geography of the World's Scientific Elites

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Scientific excellence is clustering ever more tightly in a few ‘superstar’ cities. Four—New York, Boston, London and the San Francisco Bay Area—now host 12% of the world's top scientists. In contrast, the Global South remains largely absent, with the notable exception of Beijing's dramatic rise.
