Mapping Morality: Visible and Invisible Geographies

Making the invisible visible.

There would be no population problems if people were not concerned about the evidently increasing difficulties of survival. Such is not the case as is evident in the global efforts for economic and social development. Yet, in the minds of most people the population question as a "situation" or a "problem" does not exist. When its reality is asserted by others, it is frequently regarded as a ...

Visible Supersymmetry Breaking and an Invisible Higgs

If there are multiple hidden sectors which independently break supersymmetry, then the spectrum will contain multiple goldstini. In this paper, we explore the possibility that the visible sector might also break supersymmetry, giving rise to an additional pseudogoldstino. By the standard lore, visible sector supersymmetry breaking is phenomenologically excluded by the supertrace sum rule, but t...

Pointing to Visible and Invisible Targets

We investigated how the visibility of targets influenced the type of point used to provide directions. In Study 1, we asked 605 passersby in three localities for directions to well-known local landmarks. When that landmark was in plain view behind the requester, most respondents pointed with their index fingers, and few respondents pointed more than once. In contrast, when the landmark was not ...

Invisible Hyperbolic Metamaterial Nanotube at Visible Frequency

Subwavelength-scale metal and dielectric nanostructures have served as important building blocks for electromagnetic metamaterials, providing unprecedented opportunities for manipulating the optical response of the matter. Recently, hyperbolic metamaterials have been drawing particular interest because of their unusual optical properties and functionalities, such as negative refraction and hype...
