    • Gravity and Lw1+∞ Symmetry 

      Miller, Noah (2024-05-31)
      We develop a new perturbative expansion for self-dual metrics in four-dimensions using Plebański's second heavenly equation. The expansion can be expressed as a sum over "marked" tree graphs, where each node can have an ...
    • Gravity Induced C-Deformation 

      Ooguri, Hirosi; Vafa, Cumrun (International Press, 2003)
      We study F-terms describing coupling of the supergravity to N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theories which admit large N expansions. We show that these F-terms are given by summing over genus one non-planar diagrams of the large ...
    • The Gravity of Unwanted Thoughts: Asymmetric Priming Effects in Thought Suppression 

      Najmi, Sadia; Wegner, Daniel (Elsevier, 2008)
      An unwanted thought appears to be cued easily by reminders in the environment but often the thought itself seems to cue nothing more than the desire to eliminate it from consciousness. This unusual asymmetry in the way ...

      Everitt, C W F; Muhlfelder, B; DeBra, D B; Parkinson, B W; Turneaure, J P; Silbergleit, A S; Acworth, E B; Adams, M; Adler, R; Bencze, W J; Berberian, J E; Bernier, R J; Bower, K A; Brumley, R W; Buchman, S; Burns, K; Clarke, B; Conklin, J W; Eglington, M L; Green, G; Gutt, G; Gwo, D H; Hanuschak, G; He, X; Heifetz, M I; Hipkins, D N; Holmes, T J; Kahn, R A; Keiser, G M; Kozaczuk, J A; Langenstein, T; Li, J; Lipa, J A; Lockhart, J M; Luo, M; Mandel, I; Marcelja, F; Mester, J C; Ndili, A; Ohshima, Y; Overduin, J; Salomon, M; Santiago, D I; Shestople, P; Solomonik, V G; Stahl, K; Taber, M; Van Patten, R A; Wang, S; Wade, J R; Worden, P W; Bartel, N; Herman, L; Lebach, D E; Ratner, M; Ransom, R R; Shapiro, Irwin I.; Small, H; Stroozas, B; Geveden, R; Goebel, J H; Horack, J; Kolodziejczak, J; Lyons, A J; Olivier, J; Peters, P; Smith, M; Till, W; Wooten, L; Reeve, W; Anderson, M; Bennett, N R; Burns, K; Dougherty, H; Dulgov, P; Frank, D; Huff, L W; Katz, R; Kirschenbaum, J; Mason, G; Murray, D; Parmley, R; Ratner, M I; Reynolds, G; Rittmuller, P; Schweiger, P F; Shehata, S; Triebes, K; VandenBeukel, J; Vassar, R; Al-Saud, T; Al-Jadaan, A; Al-Jibreen, H; Al-Meshari, M; Al-Suwaidan, B (IOP Publishing, 2015)
      The Gravity Probe B mission provided two new quantitative tests of Einstein's theory of gravity, general relativity (GR), by cryogenic gyroscopes in Earth's orbit. Data from four gyroscopes gave a geodetic drift-rate of ...
    • Gravity waves from extreme-mass-ratio plunges into Kerr black holes 

      Hadar, Shahar; Porfyriadis, Achilleas; Strominger, Andrew E. (American Physical Society (APS), 2014)
      Massive objects orbiting a near-extreme Kerr black hole quickly plunge into the horizon after passing the innermost stable circular orbit. The plunge trajectory is shown to be related by a conformal map to a circular orbit. ...
    • Gravity waves from the Kerr/CFT correspondence 

      Porfyriadis, Achilleas; Strominger, Andrew E. (American Physical Society (APS), 2014)
      Dynamics at large redshift near the horizon of an extreme Kerr black hole are governed by an infinite-dimensional conformal symmetry. This symmetry may be exploited to analytically, rather than numerically, compute a variety ...
    • Gray anatomy: Phylogenetic patterns of somatic gonad structures and reproductive strategies across the Bilateria 

      Extavour, Cassandra G. (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2007)
      The last common ancestor of extant bilaterian animals is often referred to as ‘‘Urbilateria’’. Comparative studies of development in a variety of laboratory animals, both traditional model systems and newer ‘‘emerging’’ ...
    • Grazers and Phytoplankton Growth in the Oceans: an Experimental and Evolutionary Perspective 

      Ratti, Simona; Knoll, Andrew H.; Giordano, Mario (Public Library of Science, 2013)
      The taxonomic composition of phytoplankton responsible for primary production on continental shelves has changed episodically through Earth history. Geological correlations suggest that major changes in phytoplankton ...
    • GRB 080319B: evidence for relativistic turbulence, not internal shocks 

      Kumar, Pawan; Narayan, Ramesh (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2009)
      We show that the excellent optical and gamma-ray data available for GRB 080319B rule out the internal shock model for the prompt emission. The data instead point to a model in which the observed radiation was produced close ...
    • Grb 091024a and the Nature of Ultra-Long Gamma-Ray Bursts 

      Virgili, F. J.; Mundell, C. G.; Pal, V.; Guidorzi, C.; Margutti, R.; Melandri, A.; Harrison, R.; Kobayashi, S.; Chornock, R.; Henden, A.; Updike, A. C.; Cenko, S. B.; Tanvir, N. R.; Steele, I. A.; Cucchiara, A.; Gomboc, A.; Levan, A.; Cano, Z.; Mottram, C. J.; Clay, N. R.; Bersier, D.; Kopač, D.; Japelj, J.; Filippenko, A. V.; Li, W.; Svinkin, D.; Golenetskii, S.; Hartmann, D. H.; Milne, P. A.; Williams, G.; O, P. T.; Fox, D. B.; Berger, Edo (IOP Publishing, 2013)
      We present a broadband study of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 091024A within the context of other ultra-long-duration GRBs. An unusually long burst detected by Konus-Wind, Swift, and Fermi, GRB 091024A has prompt emission episodes ...
    • GRB 130606A as a Probe of the Intergalactic Medium and the Interstellar Medium in a Star-forming Galaxy in the First Gyr After the Big Bang 

      Chornock, Ryan; Berger, Edo; Fox, Derek B.; Lunnan, Ragnhild; Drout, Maria Rebecca; Fong, Wen-fai; Laskar, Tanmoy; Roth, Katherine C. (IOP Publishing, 2013)
      We present high signal-to-noise ratio Gemini and MMT spectroscopy of the optical afterglow of the gamma-ray burst (GRB) 130606A at redshift z=5.913, discovered by Swift. This is the first high-redshift GRB afterglow to ...
    • Great Apes Prefer Cooked Food 

      Wobber, Victoria Elizabeth; Hare, Brian; Wrangham, Richard W. (Elsevier, 2008)
      The cooking hypothesis proposes that a diet of cooked food was responsible for diverse morphological and behavioral changes in human evolution. However, it does not predict whether a preference for cooked food evolved ...
    • The Great Compression: The Wage Structure in the United States at Mid- Century 

      Goldin, Claudia D.; Margo, Robert (Oxford University Press (OUP), 1992)
      The structure of wages narrowed considerably during the 1940's, increased slightly during the 1950's and 1960's, and then expanded greatly after 1970. The era of wage stretching of the past two decades has been a current ...
    • The Great Mystery: Death, Memory and the Archiving of Monastic Culture in Late Antique Religious Tales
