Historical Everyday Geopolitics on the Chile-Peru Border (2019)
Journal Article

Geopolitics is increasingly seen by scholars as occurring in everyday spaces and performed by ordinary people. This paper extends this idea to historical work to examine how citizens themselves (re)produce geopolitics at the time of historical events...

Classical stochastic discrete time crystals (2019)
Journal Article

© 2019 American Physical Society. We describe a general and simple paradigm for discrete time crystals (DTCs), systems with a stable subharmonic response to an external driving field, in a classical thermal setting. We consider, specifically, an Isin... Read More about Classical stochastic discrete time crystals.

Invasive Lobular Breast Cancer as a Distinct Disease: Implications for Therapeutic Strategy (2019)
