Does protectionist anti-takeover legislation lead to managerial entrenchment?

Marc André Frattaroli

I study a protectionist anti takeover law introduced in 2014 that covers a subset of all firms in the economy. The law decreased affected firms' likelihood of becoming the target of a merger or acquisition and had a negative impact on shareholder value. Th ...

On the price elasticity of demand for trademarks

Gaétan Jean A de Rassenfosse

One underexplored factor directly affecting firms' use of trademarks relates to the fees associated with obtaining a mark. This paper provides econometric estimates of the fee elasticity of demand for trademark applications. Using a panel of monthly intern ...

The Role of Sex and Age on Pre-drinking: An Exploratory International Comparison of 27 Countries

Aims This exploratory study aims to model the impact of sex and age on the percentage of pre-drinking in 27 countries, presenting a single model of pre-drinking behaviour for all countries and then comparing the role of sex and age on pre-drinking behaviou ...

The procurement of innovation by the U.S. government

Gaétan Jean A de Rassenfosse, Emilio Raiteri

The U.S. government invests more than $50 billion per year in R&D procurement but we know little about the outcomes of these investments. We have traced all the patents arising from government funding since the year 2000. About 1.5 percent of all R&D procu ...

The needle model: A new model for the main hydration peak of alite

Karen Scrivener, Alexandre Reda Constantin William Caleb Ouzia

This article presents a new model for the main hydration peaks of tricalcium silicate and alite on the assumption that C-S-H nucleates and grows as needles. The model relies only on directly observable quantities and reproduces the transition from the acce ...

Production and characterization of stabilized lignin

Masoud Talebi Amiri

Lignocellulosic biomass is a sustainable source of renewable carbon, and it is the most abundant form of terrestrial biomass. The three main constituents of lignocellulosic biomass are cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. The monomers from these biopolyme ...

The Pass-through of Bank Capital Requirements to Corporate Lending Spreads

Luisa Lambertini, Abhik Mukherjee

This paper studies the impact of higher bank capital requirements on corporate lending spreads. We conduct an empirical analysis using granular bank- and loan-level data for Switzerland. Overall, we nd a positive relationship between capital ratios, actual ...

The small RNA RyhB is a regulator of cytochrome expression in Shewanella oneidensis

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Karin Lederballe Meibom, Elena Maria Cabello Ferrete

Shewanella oneidensis produces an extensive electron transfer network that results in metabolic flexibility. A large number of c-type cytochromes are expressed by S. oneidensis and these function as the fundamental electron transport chain proteins. Althou ...

The performance of single- and multi-proxy transfer functions (testate amoebae, bryophytes, vascular plants) for reconstructing mire surface wetness and pH

Peatlands are widely exploited archives of paleoenvironmental change. We developed and compared multiple transfer functions to infer peatland depth to the water table (DWT) and pH based on testate amoeba (percentages, or presence/absence), bryophyte presen ...

Role of non-specific DNA in reducing coding DNA requirement for transient gene expression with CHO and HEK-293E cells

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Yashas Rajendra, Divor Kiseljak

Transient gene expression (TGE) is a rapid method for the production of recombinant proteins in mammalian cells. While the TGE volumetric productivity has improved significantly over the past decade, the amount of plasmid DNA (pDNA) needed for transfection ...

Lightning Currents Flowing in the Soil and Entering a Test Power Distribution Line Via Its Grounding

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Mario Paolone, Emanuel Petrache

Current from nearby rocket-triggered lightning that flowed through the soil and into an unenergized test power distribution line was studied based on experimental data acquired in 2003 at the International Center for Lightning Research and Testing in Flori ...

Energy and greenhouse gas balances of biofuels: biases induced by LCA modelling choices

Edgard Gnansounou, Arnaud Dauriat, Luis Alberto Panichelli, Juan David Villegas Gomez

Estimating greenhouse gas (GHG) balances of biofuels is subject to significant biases stemming from modelling choices about system definition and boundaries, functional unit, reference systems and allocation methods. This paper investigates extent to which ...

Spin-dependent transport in cluster-assembled nanostructures: influence of cluster size and matrix material

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Santiago Serrano Guisan, Giulia Di Domenicantonio

Spin-dependent transport in granular metallic nanostructures has been investigated by means of a thermoelectric measurement. Cobalt clusters of well-defined size ( = 15 and 600), embedded in copper and silver matrices, show magnetic field responses of u ...
