“How difficult can it be?” A non-Indigenous ‘Asian’ Australian high school teacher’s AsianCrit autoethnographic account of dealing with racial injustice by Aaron Teo

“…In the context of Australian education, there is a slowly developing collection of Critical Race Theory (CRT) scholarship that has addressed and challenged the inequities that pervade the Indigenous student experience (Ford, 2013; Vass, 2014, 2015); however, there has been much less momentum made with other racial minorities. …”

Perfect Fluid Dark Matter Influence on Thermodynamics and Phase Transition for a Reissner-Nordstrom-Anti-de Sitter Black Hole by Zhaoyi Xu, Xian Hou, Jiancheng Wang, Yi Liao

“…By investigating the critical behaviour of perfect fluid dark matter around Reissner-Nordstrom-anti-de Sitter black hole, we find that these thermodynamics system are similar to Van der Waals system and can be explained by mean field theory. We also explore the Ruppeiner thermodynamic geometry feature and their connection with microscopic structure. …”
