Strengthening Indigenous Social Work in the Academy
This paper provides an account of the development of an Indigenous Social Work program in Sudbury, Ontario and how it was conceived, developed and implemented. It describes the transformational approaches that Aboriginal faculty, communities and academic allies engaged in to create a rightful space for Indigenous social work in mainstream academia. In its 25th year, this program has provided many transformational opportunities for students, faculty and Aboriginal communities. Incorporating resistance and proactive momentum, the program has become pivotal in expanding the visibility and legitimacy for Indigenous social work in practice, theory, research and pedagogies. This program is an example of how community-faculty collaborations can sustain a robust Indigenous social work program
Collective Excitations, NMR, and Phase Transitions in Skyrme Crystals
At Landau level filling factors near nu =1, quantum Hall ferromagnets form a
Skyrme crystal state with quasi-long-range translational and non-collinear
magnetic order. We develop an effective low energy theory which explains the
presence in these systems of magnetic excitations at low energies below the
Larmor gap (Delta) and which predicts a dramatic enhancement of the nuclear
spin relaxation rate by a factor of 1000. The effective theory predicts a rich
set of quantum and classical phase transitions. Based in part on accurate
time-dependent Hartree-Fock calculations of the ordered state collective
excitation spectrum, we discuss aspects of the T-nu-Delta crystal phase
diagram.Comment: 4 pages REVTEX file and 3 postscript figure
Phases of the 2D Hubbard model at low doping
We show that the planar spiral phase of the 2D Hubbard model at low doping,
x, is unstable towards a noncoplanar spin configuration. The novel equilibrium
state we found at low doping is incommensurate with the inverse pitch of the
spiral varying as x^(1/2), but nevertheless has a dominant peak in the
susceptibility at (\pi,\pi). Relevance to the NMR and neutron scattering
experiments in La_2-xSr_xCuO_4 is disccussed.Comment: 12 pages, emtex v.3.
Correlations of Globular Cluster Properties: Their Interpretations and Uses
Correlations among the independently measured physical properties of globular
clusters (GCs) can provide powerful tests for theoretical models and new
insights into their dynamics, formation, and evolution. We review briefly some
of the previous work, and present preliminary results from a comparative study
of GC correlations in the Local Group galaxies. The results so far indicate
that these diverse GC systems follow the same fundamental correlations,
suggesting a commonality of formative and evolutionary processes which produce
them.Comment: An invited review, to appear in "New Horizons in Globular Cluster
