A life-history approach to fertility rates in rural Gambia: evidence for trade-offs or phenotypic correlations? (2003)
Book Chapter
Sear, R., Mace, R., & McGregor, I. (2003). A life-history approach to fertility rates in rural Gambia: evidence for trade-offs or phenotypic correlations?. In J. Rodgers, & H. Kohler (Eds.), The biodemography of human reproduction and fertility (135-160). Kluwer

Life history theory predicts that a trade-off will occur between investment in current and future reproduction. We test this hypothesis in a rural Gambian population by determining whether women who have invested heavily in reproduction in the past h...

The aim of this paper is to analyze the phenomenon of burials in urban areas in North Africam in partuckar of Carthage during the Vandal and the Byzantine period. The analysis seems to show that in the Vandal period the very few recorded tombs were r... Read More about L’inumazione in 'spazio urbano' a Cartagine tra V e VII secolo D.C.

The Local Government Association (LGA) is the national association for English local government. This article draws some conclusions about contemporary English central-local relations from the strategies and structures of the LGA. We test three model...

Visual culture in prehistoric South-East Italy (2003)
Journal Article
Skeates, R. (2003). Visual culture in prehistoric South-East Italy. Proceedings of the Prehistoric Society, 68, 165-83

Using the approach of visual culture, which highlights the embeddedness of art in dynamic human processes, this paper examines the prehistoric archaeology of the Lecce province in south-east Italy, in order to provide a history of successive visual c...

A note on first-order projections and games (2003)
Journal Article
Arratia, A., & Stewart, I. (2003). A note on first-order projections and games. Theoretical Computer Science, 290(3), 2085-2093. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0304-3975%2802%2900491-7

We show how the fact that there is a first-order projection from the problem TC (transitive closure) to some other problem $\Omega$ enables us to automatically deduce that a natural game problem, $\mathcal{LG}(\Omega)$, whose instances are labelled i...

Are changes in blood pressure and total cholesterol related to changes in mood? An 18-month study of men and women (2003)
Journal Article
Pollard, T., & Schwartz, J. (2003). Are changes in blood pressure and total cholesterol related to changes in mood? An 18-month study of men and women. Health Psychology, 22(1), 47-53. https://doi.org/10.1037/0278-6133.22.1.47

We investigated the within-person association of reported mood with blood pressure and total cholesterol (TC) levels, each assessed 4 times over an 18-month period in 128 men and 154 women. Results showed that change over time in level of tense arous... Read More about Are changes in blood pressure and total cholesterol related to changes in mood? An 18-month study of men and women.

Another Europe: remembering Habsburg Galicja (2003)
Journal Article
Bialasiewicz, L. (2003). Another Europe: remembering Habsburg Galicja. cultural geographies, 10(1), 21-44. https://doi.org/10.1191/1474474003eu258oa

The past ten years have brought about a profound reordering of the spatial imaginary of Europe. It is a reordering, however, that continues to this day, and the tracing (symbolic as well as institutional) of the future 'Eastern' confine of the common...

Storying Self and Others: The Construction of Narrative Identity (2003)
Journal Article
Collins, P. (2003). Storying Self and Others: The Construction of Narrative Identity. Journal of Language and Politics, 2(2), 243-264. https://doi.org/10.1075/jlp.2.2.04col

Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork undertaken among British Quakers this article attempts to elucidate some of the connections between the narrative quality of everyday interaction and the local construction of self. Focusing on the Quaker Meeting, we... Read More about Storying Self and Others: The Construction of Narrative Identity.

The evolution of the cortico-cerebellar complex in primates: anatomical connections predict patterns of correlated evolution (2003)
Journal Article
Whiting, B., & Barton, R. (2003). The evolution of the cortico-cerebellar complex in primates: anatomical connections predict patterns of correlated evolution. Journal of Human Evolution, 44(1), 3-10. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0047-2484%2802%2900162-8

Investigations into the evolution of the primate brain have tended to neglect the role of connectivity in determining which brain structures have changed in size, focusing instead on changes in the size of the whole brain or of individual brain struc...

Calculable corrections to brane black hole decay. II: Greybody factors for spin 1/2 and 1 (2003)
Journal Article
Kanti, P., & March-Russell, J. (2003). Calculable corrections to brane black hole decay. II: Greybody factors for spin 1/2 and 1. Physical Review D, Particles and fields, 67(10), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.67.104019

The production of black holes in extra-dimensional brane-world theories can lead to detectable signals via the Hawking evaporation of the black hole to brane-localized standard model modes. We calculate, as a function of partial wave number and numbe... Read More about Calculable corrections to brane black hole decay. II: Greybody factors for spin 1/2 and 1.

The dynamics of magnetic flows for energies above Mane's critical value (2003)
Journal Article
Peyerimhoff, N., & Siburg, K. (2003). The dynamics of magnetic flows for energies above Mane's critical value. Israel Journal of Mathematics, 135, 269-298

We show that, for energies above Mane's critical value, minimal magnetic geodesics are Riemannian (A,0)-quasi-geodesics where A -> 1 as the energy tends to infinity. As a consequence, on negatively curved manifolds, minimal magnetic geodesics lie in... Read More about The dynamics of magnetic flows for energies above Mane's critical value.
