The ambivalent shadow of the pre-Wilsonian rise of international law
The generation of American international lawyers who founded the American Society of International Law in 1906 and nurtured the soil for what has been retrospectively called a “moralistic legalistic approach to international relations” remains little studied. A survey of the rise of international legal literature in the U.S. from the mid-19th century to the eve of the Great War serves as a backdrop to the examination of the boosting effect on international law of the Spanish American War in 1898. An examination of the Insular Cases before the US Supreme Court is then accompanied by the analysis of a number of influential factors behind the pre-war rise of international law in the U.S. The work concludes with an examination of the rise of natural law doctrines in international law during the interwar period and the critiques addressed.by the realist founders of the field of “international relations” to the “moralistic legalistic approach to international relation

Shell model in the complex energy plane and two-particle resonances
An implementation of the shell-model to the complex energy plane is
presented. The representation used in the method consists of bound
single-particle states, Gamow resonances and scattering waves on the complex
energy plane. Two-particle resonances are evaluated and their structure in
terms of the single-particle degreees of freedom are analysed. It is found that
two-particle resonances are mainly built upon bound states and Gamow
resonances, but the contribution of the scattering states is also important.Comment: 20 pages, 9 figures, submitted to Phys.Rev.
Accretion, Primordial Black Holes and Standard Cosmology
Primordial Black Holes evaporate due to Hawking radiation. We find that the
evaporation time of primordial black holes increase when accretion of radiation
is included.Thus depending on accretion efficiency more and more number of
primordial black holes are existing today, which strengthens the idea that the
primordial black holes are the proper candidate for dark matter.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figure
