The High Pay Centre revealed the excesses of CEO wages. But then anti-diversity winds blew in from across the AtlanticShock ricocheted around the world of social research this week with the sudden news of the imminent closure of the High Pay Centre (HPC). Founded in 2011 by the former Guardian business editor Deborah Hargreaves to focus on analysis of extreme pay at the top and the widening pay gap between CEOs and their average employees, its closure feels like the death of an idea.

Orthogonality of coastal trapped waves

Announce Type: new Abstract: Coastal trapped wave modes are shown to be orthogonal in the sense that they make independent contributions to the energy of the wave field. The hydrostatic Boussinesq dynamics on an $f$-plane, linearized around a state of rest, are formulated as a (generalized) Schr\"odinger equation, which exposes the Hermitian structure of the wave operator that implies the orthogonality of eigenmodes. This formulation, which becomes particularly simple in weak form, is...

Spectral taxonomy for quartic systems: fundamental clock, parity, and continuum

Announce Type: new Abstract: A symmetric quartic potential is a physics motif with incredibly expansive applications, ranging from broadband energy harvesters, quantum tunneling in molecules and the early universe, to torque-free spacecraft rotation. For nearly two centuries, its rich dynamics have been classified into regimes and expressed as disjointed time-domain solutions. Here we build a taxonomy for this broad class of motions and discover that their regimes exhibit a universal...
