Determinants of case outcomes in Rwanda's postgenocide gacaca courts
Abstract Transitional justice trials have become a central mechanism for addressing mass violence and human rights violations, yet little is known about the determinants of case outcomes within these courts—particularly in domestic contexts. This study examines Rwanda's gacaca courts, a localized transitional justice system that tried people suspected ...

Parity and the Permissivism Puzzle: A Defense of Epistemic Options
ABSTRACT Moral philosophers generally affirm that there are moral options: a single person sometimes has multiple morally permissible actions at a time. But epistemologists generally deny that there are epistemic options: a single person never has multiple epistemically permissible doxastic attitudes at a time. This asymmetry is striking.

Epilepsy: Epidemiology, Molecular Pathogenesis, and Clinical Management
Epilepsy is a heterogeneous and chronically evolving brain network disorder. This review integrates epidemiological burden, psychiatric comorbidities, and cyclic seizure patterns with multiscale pathogenic mechanisms, including ion‐channel dysfunction, synaptic transmission defects, neuroinflammation, metabolic and mitochondrial dysfunction, and ...

Abstract Earthflows are landslides in fine‐grained materials that alternate long dormant phases of very slow movement with short paroxysmal stages of rapid motion. These rapid phases are highly destructive, often causing severe damage to buildings and infrastructure.

ABSTRACT Increasing filler similarity to a suspect—beyond description matching—can improve lineup discriminability. We investigated the effects of suspect‐filler similarity on reflector variable‐accuracy calibrations across different levels of innocent suspect resemblance to the culprit. Match‐to‐description‐only lineups and description‐matched lineups

High-Threshold Low-Overhead Fault-Tolerant Classical Computation and the Replacement of Measurements with Unitary Quantum Gates. [PDF]
von Neumann's classic "multiplexing" method is unique in achieving high-threshold fault-tolerant classical computation (FTCC), but has several significant barriers to implementation: (i) the extremely complex circuits required by randomized connections, (

The Timing of Expert Testimony on Juror Assessments of Eyewitness Reliability
ABSTRACT The average juror is unaware of the factors that affect eyewitness reliability. When experts educate jurors, they usually testify after an eyewitness has incriminated the defendant. We hypothesized that early presentation of expert testimony would improve juror sensitivity to eyewitness reliability.

Rampage school shootings, where students go to their own school to randomly kill classmates, teachers, friends, and strangers, are among the most drastic types of human behavior. While research increasingly points to interaction dynamics as being key for the emergence of crime and violence, scholars have not yet systematically studied interaction ...

Abstract Stromboli volcano (Italy) is known for its persistent explosive activity punctuated by more energetic explosions called paroxysms. During paroxysms, pyroclastic density currents, triggered by the gravitational instability of hot pyroclastic deposits, can occur.

High-order above-threshold photoemission from nanotips controlled with two-color laser fields [PDF]
We investigate the process of phase-controlled high-order above-threshold photoemission from metallic nanotips under bichromatic laser fields. Experimental photoelectron spectra resulting from two-color excitation with a moderately intense near-infrared ...
