Sarita Rosenstock, a fourth year LPS graduate student, has recently had her first paper accepted by an academic journal.  The paper, entitled "On Einstein algebras and relativistic spacetimes," will appear in the journal Studies in History and Philosophy of Modern Physics, a highly-regarded specialist journal.  Rosenstock is the first author on the paper; her co-authors are Thomas Barrett, a graduate student at Princeton University, and LPS faculty member James Owen Weatherall.  In the paper, Rosenstock et al. prove a theorem that captures a sense in which two apparently quite different approaches to representing the structure of space and time are equivalent.  Congratulations, Sarita!
