Global three-dimensional flow of a neutron superfluid in a spherical shell in a neutron star
We integrate for the first time the hydrodynamic Hall-Vinen-Bekarevich-Khalatnikov equations of motion of a $^{1}S_{0}$-paired neutron superfluid in a rotating spherical shell, using a pseudospectral collocation algorithm coupled with a time-split ...

The Integration of Norse‐Derived Terms in English: Effects of Formal Similarity1
Abstract Language change arising from language contact is a complex phenomenon. Peter Matthews encouraged researchers to consider it as firmly grounded in the behaviour of individual speakers. We apply this perspective to investigate the integration of Norse‐derived terms into medieval English, testing for the effect of their phonetic similarity to ...

Assessment of Level-3 Gridded Global Precipitation Mission (GPM) Products Over Oceans
The performance of Level-3 gridded Global Precipitation Mission (GPM)-based precipitation products (IMERG, Integrated Multi-satellite Retrievals for GPM) is assessed against two references over oceans: the OceanRAIN dataset, derived from oceanic ...

Abstract Recent scholarship has examined the informal activities of elites. While existing theories suggest that informality is a realm where the state guarantees unhindered access to land and property rights and, subsequently, citizenship entitlements for elites, they have yet to explain how affluent residents of informal colonies obtain citizenship ...
