“Train and Hope”: The Role of Restorative Justice Coordinators in Sustaining a Culture of Care in Schools

open access: yesConflict Resolution Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the role of restorative justice coordinators in supporting teachers and schools in adopting a whole‐school approach to restorative justice in education. Coordinators are often tasked with implementing a train‐and‐hope model, in which they receive initial training in restorative justice but are largely left unsupported ...

Violent mergers revisited: The origin of the fastest stars in the Galaxy

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Binary systems of two carbon-oxygen white dwarfs are one of the most promising candidates for the progenitor systems of Type Ia supernovae. Violent mergers, where the primary white dwarf ignites when the secondary white dwarf smashes into it while being ...

Kinetic Contribution to the Arbitrary Order Odd Frequency Moments of the Dynamic Structure Factor

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An exact expression is derived for the kinetic contribution to the odd (arbitrary order) frequency moments of the dynamic structure factor via a finite summation that features averages of even (all lower orders) powers of the momentum over the exact momentum distribution.

Accretion in dipole magnetic fields: flow structure and X-ray emission of accreting white dwarfs

open access: yes, 2005
Field-channelled accretion flows occur in a variety of astrophysical objects, including T Tauri stars,magnetic cataclysmic variables and X-ray pulsars.

Environmental and local habitat variables as predictors of trophic interactions in subtidal rocky reefs along the SE Pacific coast

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Temperature generally drives latitudinal patterns in the strength of trophic interactions, including consumption rates. However, local community and other environmental conditions might also affect consumption, disrupting latitudinal gradients, which results in complex large‐scale patterns.

The DB gap and a new class of pulsating white dwarfs

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
The recent systematic surveys providing enormously massive datasets of white dwarfs show that there is still a deficit of a factor of 2.5 in the DA/non-DA ratio within the temperature range of 30 000 K < Teff < 45 000 K, which has been regarded as the ...

White Dwarf Central Stars [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1993
Planetary nebula nuclei on lower luminosity, diagonal tracks in the HR Diagrams are degenerate dwarf stars close to their final radii. For several reasons, these stars have until recently been difficult to identify and study. With the advent of new techniques and technologies, both hydrogen–rich and hydrogen–poor atmospheric sequences have been found.

Inverse sky islands: lowland river valleys drive microbial divergence while high elevations select for convergence in massive mountain ecosystems

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Mountain ecosystems are often interpreted through the lens of the ‘sky island' model, where high‐elevation habitats function as isolated archipelagos. However, this model's applicability to massive, topographically complex mountain ranges where highlands are continuous and lowlands are fragmented remains untested.

GD1212: Probing deep into the interior of a pulsating white dwarf star

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
We present the first self-consistent seismic analysis of a white dwarf star, GD 1212, in the Kepler2 field. We precisely establish the fundamental parameters of the star using the forward method based on physically sound models.

For the Few, Not the Many: Tracing the Residualist and Compensatory Nature of British Energy Support

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drawing on extensive documentary analysis, this article traces the evolution of British energy policy support since World War II. It analyses shifts in policy design through two interpretive lenses: eligibility (residualist vs. universalist) and function (compensatory vs. preventive).
