Simulating Solar Neighborhood Brown Dwarfs. I. The Luminosity Function above and below the Galactic Plane

The Astrophysical Journal
Brown dwarfs form the key, yet poorly understood, link between stellar and planetary astrophysics. These objects offer unique tests of Galactic structure, but observational limitations have inhibited their large-scale analysis to date. Major upcoming sky

How Political Connections Shape Corporate Sustainability: A Systematic Review and Integrative Framework for Future Research Directions

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The intersection between corporate entities and political institutions—commonly referred to as corporate political connections (CPCs)—significantly influences firms' strategic conduct and their environmental obligations. Although academic interest in this area has grown, the ethical dimensions of CPCs in relation to environmental ...

A New Spectral Class of Brown Dwarfs at the Bottom of the IMF in IC 348

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
In a previous study, we used James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to identify three new brown dwarfs in the center of a nearby star-forming cluster, IC 348.

Do CSR Efforts Reduce Environmental Decoupling: Evidence From S&P 500 Firms

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the impact of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) committees and CSR‐focused employee training on environmental decoupling. Using panel data of 2489 firm‐year observations from S&P 500 firms between 2009 and 2022, we employ fixed‐effects models to examine how CSR governance mechanisms influence the alignment between ...

Speaking About Artificial Intelligence for Sustainability—How Employees’ Perception of Credibility Shapes Their Initial Attitudes Toward AI Adoption

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Companies increasingly claim to adopt artificial intelligence (AI) not only for economic but also for ecological and social purposes. However, in light of rising greenwashing, bluewashing, and ethics washing, the impact of the communicated rationale on employees' initial attitude toward AI introduction remains unclear.

A Smooth Transition from Giant Planets to Brown Dwarfs from the Radial Occurrence Distribution

The Astronomical Journal
Measuring the occurrence rates of celestial objects is a valuable way to study their origins and evolution. Giant planets and brown dwarfs produce large Doppler signatures that are easily detectable by modern instrumentation, and legacy radial velocity ...

Origins of Brown Dwarfs

, 2005
The formation of objects below or close to the hydrogen burning limit is currently vividly discussed and is one of the main open issues in the field of the origins of stars and planets. Applying various observational techniques, we explored a sample of brown dwarfs and very low-mass stars in the ChaI star forming cloud at an age of only a few million ...

Greenwashing in the Spotlight: Synthesising Evidence on Unethical Environmental Claims and Future Pathways

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firms are experiencing mounting pressure to report their environmental impact. Rather than disclosing their actual performance, however, some are engaging in unethical business (i.e., greenwashing) practices. Prior studies have contributed significantly to the greenwashing literature from varied perspectives, but a comprehensive understanding ...

A New Brown Dwarf Orbiting an M Star and an Investigation of the Eccentricity Distribution of Transiting Long-period Brown Dwarfs

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The orbital eccentricities of brown dwarfs encode valuable information on their formation and evolution history, providing insights into whether they resemble giant planets or stellar binaries.
