Circularity by stock in Sri Lanka: Economic necessity meets urban fabric renovation

Persistent fiscal and political mismanagement, together with the financial pressures of the COVID-19 pandemic, have driven Sri Lanka into a social and economic crisis triggering a decrease in national foreign exchange reserves, an inability to purchase vit ...

Long-Distance Coherent Propagation of High-Velocity Antiferromagnetic Spin Waves

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Jilei Chen, Yao Zhang, Song Liu, Rundong Yuan, Cheng Song

We report on coherent propagation of antiferromagnetic (AFM) spin waves over a long distance (similar to 10 mu m) at room temperature in a canted AFM alpha-Fe2O3 owing to the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). Unprecedented high group velocities (up ...

Monetary Independence And Rollover Crises

Jorge Mondragon Minero

This article shows that the inability to use monetary policy for macroeconomic stabilization leaves a government more vulnerable to a rollover crisis. We study a sovereign default model with self-fulfilling rollover crises, foreign currency debt, and nomin ...

Regional Effects of Exchange Rate Fluctuations

Christian Pröbsting

We exploit differences across U.S. states' exposure to trade to study the effects of changes in the exchange rate on economic activity. Across states, trade-weighted exchange rate depreciations are associated with increased state exports, reduced state une ...

Exchange Rate Analysis by Nonlinear Time Series Method

Maria-Alexandra Paun

A financial data analysis using the time series method has been performed. At the same time a correct interpretation of daily exchange rates fluctuations, for Eur foreign currencies is presented. The fractal dimension evaluation has been performed using th ...

Watertable fluctuation-induced variability in the water retention curve: Sand column experiments

David Andrew Barry, Zhaoyang Luo

The soil water retention curve (WRC), describing the relation between the soil water content and its corresponding capillary pressure, relies not only on whether drying or wetting occurs but also on the pore scale water flow velocity. Here, we investigated ...

Sparse Inverse Problems Over Measures: Equivalence Of The Conditional Gradient And Exchange Methods

Armin Eftekhari

We study an optimization program over nonnegative Borel measures that encourages sparsity in its solution. Efficient solvers for this program are in increasing demand, as it arises when learning from data generated by a "continuum-of-subspaces" model, a re ...

A Reassessment of of the geochemical and isotopic fidelity of biogenic carbonates

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Arthur Adams, Deyanira Graciela Cisneros Lazaro, Jinming Guo, Tarek Axel Vennemann

Oxygen isotope compositions of calcite foraminifera tests are considered to be a robust palaeotemperature proxy at earth-surface conditions, where diffusion is slow. Recrystallization of tests during diagenesis may be optically identified and is often the ...

Quantifying the Benefits of Labor Mobility in a Currency Union

Unemployment differentials are bigger in Europe than in the United States. Migration responds to unemployment differentials, though the response is smaller in Europe. Mundell (1961) argued that factor mobility is a precondition for a successful currency un ...

Quantification of stored red blood cell fluctuations by time-lapse holographic cell imaging

Gerardo Turcatti, Benjamin Rappaz, Pierre Marquet, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

We propose methods to quantitatively calculate the fluctuation rate of red blood cells with nanometric axial and millisecond temporal sensitivity at the single-cell level by using time-lapse holographic cell imaging. For this quantitative analysis, cell me ...

Metal-Organic and Oxide Nanostructures for Electrocatalyzing the Oxygen Half-Cell Reaction

Diana Hötger

Energy Storage in the chemical bonds of water, a process accessible through electrochemical conversion, is a simple approach to compensate supply fluctuation common to sustainable energy production such as wind and solar. However, the water cycle is limite ...

Study of fast exchanging processes by NMR Spectroscopy

Estel Canet Martinez

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is one of the most powerful and informative methods to probe molecular dynamics. Specifically, chemical exchange is an important phenomenon and one of the earliest and most vigorously investigated in NMR spectr ...

Kinetic isotope effects for fast deuterium and proton exchange rates

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Daniele Mammoli, Estel Canet Martinez, Pavel Kaderavek

By monitoring the effect of deuterium decoupling on the decay of transverse N-15 magnetization in D-N-15 spin pairs during multiple-refocusing echo sequences, we have determined fast D-D exchange rates k(D) and compared them with fast H-H exchange rates k( ...

Portfolio and welfare consequences of debt market dominance

Serhiy Stepanchuk

The ability to issue debt that pays in units of the domestic good leads a country to accumulate a large and negative net foreign asset position while maintaining a positive position in equity. This debt market advantage also helps to explain the weak relat ...

Fast Proton Exchange in Histidine: Measurement of Rate Constants through Indirect Detection by NMR Spectroscopy

Geoffrey Bodenhausen

Owing to its imidazole side chain, histidine participates in various processes such as enzyme catalysis, pH regulation, metal binding, and phosphorylation. The determination of exchange rates of labile protons for such a system is important for understandi ...

Liquidity in the Foreign Exchange Market: Measurement, Commonality, and Risk Premiums

Loriano Mancini, Angelo Ranaldo

We provide the first systematic study of liquidity in the foreign exchange market. We find significant variation in liquidity across exchange rates, substantial illiquidity costs, and strong commonality in liquidity across currencies and with equity and bo ...

Alignment of defect levels and band edges through hybrid functionals: Effect of screening in the exchange term

Alfredo Pasquarello, Peter Broqvist, Hannu-Pekka Komsa

We investigate how various treatments of exact exchange affect defect charge transition levels and band edges in hybrid functional schemes for a variety of systems. We distinguish the effects of long-range vs short-range exchange and of local vs nonlocal e ...
