Study of Atmospheric Discharge Effects in Distribution Networks with a Novel Residential Buildings Protection Approach by Meisam Karami, Yazdan Ashgevari

“…Furthermore, the study explores lightning strikes occurring in the vicinity of buildings, leading to a rise in ground potential and indicating the potential reverse flow of lightning current from the ground system towards the building. By shedding light on these phenomena, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of lightning overvoltage behavior and aids in the development of effective mitigation strategies for safeguarding electrical systems and building infrastructure.…”

Hāloa: The long breath of Hawaiian sovereignty, water rights, and Indigenous law by Puanani Apoliona-Brown

“…My research is guided by the moʻolelo (oral histories) of nā kūpuna who were once the “radical” activists of the Hawaiian Renaissance. Their stories shed light on a history unaccounted for in standard textbooks and reveal a genealogy of Native Hawaiian resistance that was reawakened under the banner of Aloha ‘Āina (reciprocal love of land). …”

Electroweak hierarchy from conformal and custodial symmetry by Thede de Boer, Manfred Lindner, Andreas Trautner

“…The minimal setting has the same number of parameters as the SM and predicts new physics in the form of a heavy Z′ with fixed couplings to the SM and a mass of mZ′≈4−100TeV, as well as a light but close-to invisible dilaton with a mass mhΦ≈75GeV.…”

Transient bifurcation induced rocket acceleration leading to a relativistic bulk medium induced by designed high-intensity lasers by Ryutaro Matsui, Yasuaki Kishimoto

“…By exploring a different function of plasma regulated by nonlinear waves and their transient bifurcations, we propose a boosting scheme for an object consisting of pure solid hydrogen medium irradiated by spatiotemporally designed high-intensity lasers to nearly the speed of light. This is achieved by two processes. One is the slow process via the formation of the shocklike structure in the medium and subsequent adiabatic compression exceeding 20 times the solid density to a width narrower than the local Debye length. …”

How Can We Learn from Milieus? by Kristupas Sabolius

“…Additionally, Sonu and Snaza (2016) argue that failing to question the assumptions underlying the concept of the human subject risks grounding the relationship between humans and the world in a ‘momentary ethic’, where partial knowledge is tied to accidental actions. In light of these critiques, it is clear that environmental education requires a philosophical reevaluation and rearticulation of issues such as entanglement to and with the individual. …”
