Islamic Feminism in India: Indian Muslim Women Activists and the Reform of Muslim Personal Law
(Cambridge University Press, 2008)
I describe here a nascent ‘Islamic feminist’ movement in India, dedicated to the goal of achieving gender equity under Muslim Personal Law. In justifying their demands, these women activists refer neither to the Indian ...
On the minimum number of colors for knots.
(Elsevier, 2008-01)
In this article we take up the calculation of the minimum number of colors needed to produce a non-trivial coloring of a knot. This is a knot invariant and we use the torus knots of type (2, n) as our
case study. We ...
Interplay of ferromagnetism and triplet superconductivity in a Josephson junction
(American Physical Society, 2008-03)
In this work we extend our earlier analysis of the novel Josephson effect in triplet superconductor-ferromagnet-triplet superconductor (TFT) junctions [Kastening et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 047009 (2006)]. In our more ...
Importance of correlations and fluctuations on the initial source eccentricity in high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions.
(American Physical Society, 2008-01)
In relativistic heavy-ion collisions, anisotropic collective flow is driven, event by event, by the initial eccentricity of the matter created in the nuclear overlap zone. Interpretation of the anisotropic flow data thus ...
Local lattice structure change in PrNiO3 across the metal-insulator transition: X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy and ab initio calculations
(American Physical Society, 2008-02)
X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) measurements at the Ni K edge of PrNiO3 across the metal insulator transition show that a change in the local lattice structure accompanies such transition. Theoretical calculations ...
Diversity of Exposure in Television Viewing: Audience Fragmentation and Polarization in Guangzhou
(Taylor & Francis, 2008)
Chinese television has gone through tremendous growth and change recently. The new media environment has the potential to reshape patterns of television consumption and, in turn, affect the democratic development of Chinese ...
Examples of Non-Locality
(Association for Symbolic Logic, 2008-09)
We use kappa-free but not Whitehead Abelian groups to construct Abstract Elementary Classes (AEC) which satisfy the amalgamation property but fail various conditions on the locality of Galois-types. We introduce the notion ...
Molecular ordering and phase behavior of surfactants at water-oil interfaces as probed by X-ray surface scattering
(Annual Reviews, 2008-05)
Surfactants have their primary utility, both scientific and industrial, at the liquid-liquid interface. We review recent X-ray surface scattering experiments that probe the molecular ordering and phase behavior of surfactants ...
Progress in 13C and 1H solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance for paramagnetic systems under very fast magic angle spinning.
(American Institute of Physics, 2008-02)
High-resolution solid-state NMR (SSNMR) of paramagnetic systems has been largely unexplored because of various technical difficulties due to large hyperfine shifts, which have limited the success of previous studies through ...
