Challenging Imperial Feminism

Imperial College,

We review the properties of classical p-brane solutions to supergravity theories, i.e. solutions that may be interpreted as Poincaré-invariant hyperplanes in space-time. Topics covered include the distinction between elementary/electric and soli-tonic/magnetic solutions, examples of singularity and global structure, relations between mass densities, charge densities and the preservation of unbr...

Imperial College,

Data from the first run of the BABAR detector at the PEP II accelerator are presented. Measurements of many rare B decay modes are now possible using the large data sets currently being collected by BABAR. An overview of analysis techniques and results on data collected in 2000 are described.

Has Feminism Changed Physics?

Looking for Feminism

In a recent talk given at a North American University, a prominent feminist scholar from the United States observed that the contributions of Black women in mass political movements have been given short shrift in both conventional male-centred narratives of revolutionary movements (such as the Black Power movement in the USA), and mainstream feminist accounts of women’s activism, because inter...
