Effective coordination numbers from EXAFS: general approaches for lanthanide and actinide dioxides. [PDF]
New experimental EXAFS results for PuO2 and CeO2 nanoparticles in the size range of 2 nm were compared with published data for other lanthanide and actinide dioxides. A conceptual core‐shell model with a calculated effective coordination number is proposed to fit the changes in EXAFS.Extended X‐ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) is a comprehensive ...

A symposium on Understanding Society, the UK Household Longitudinal Study: introduction
Abstract Understanding Society, the UK Household Longitudinal Study began in 2009, and built on and incorporated its predecessor the British Household Panel Survey. It is the largest survey of its kind in the world and provides rich opportunities for economic research and policy analysis. In this introduction to a symposium on Understanding Society, we

Hours risk and wage risk: repercussions over the life cycle*
Abstract We decompose earnings risk into contributions from hours and wage shocks. To distinguish between hours shocks, modeled as innovations to the marginal disutility of work, and labor supply reactions to wage shocks, we formulate a life‐cycle model of consumption and labor supply.

Redistribution and Insurance in Welfare States around the World*
Abstract Redistribution across individuals within the framework of a one‐year period is an empirically intensely studied question. However, a substantial share of annual redistribution might turn out to serve individual insurance in a longer perspective, reducing the level of actual redistribution across individuals.

Internal Variability Dominates Over Externally Forced Ocean Circulation Changes Seen Through CFCs
Abstract Observations of oceanic transient tracers have indicated that the circulation in the Southern Ocean has changed in recent decades, potentially driven by changes in external climate forcing. Here, we use the CESM Large Ensemble to analyze changes in two oceanic tracers that are affected by ocean circulation: the partial pressure of ...

Die internationale Einbettung des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels (SOEP) im Rahmen des Cross-National Equivalent File (CNEF) [PDF]
In den vergangenen 30 Jahren haben mehrere Industrienationen zunehmend in Entwicklung, Aufbau und Durchfuhrung von sozialwissenschaftlichen Haushalts- und Personenbefragungen investiert, wobei Langsschnitt- und Panelstudien eine besondere Rolle zukommt.

A method to evaluate the stability of tunnel face is proposed in the framework of upper bound theorem. The safety factor which is widely applied in slope stability analysis is introduced to estimate the stability of tunnel face using the upper bound theorem of limit analysis in conjunction with a strength reduction technique.

The impact of household capital income on income inequality: A factor decomposition analysis for Great Britain, Germany and the USA [PDF]
This paper analyses the contribution of capital income to income inequality in a cross-national comparison. Using micro-data from the Cross-National Equivalent File (CNEF) for three prominent panel studies, namely the BHPS for Great Britain, the SOEP for

k-Generalized Statistics in Personal Income Distribution
Starting from the generalized exponential function $\exp_{\kappa}(x)=(\sqrt{1+\kappa^{2}x^{2}}+\kappa x)^{1/\kappa}$, with $\exp_{0}(x)=\exp(x)$, proposed in Ref. [G. Kaniadakis, Physica A \textbf{296}, 405 (2001)], the survival function $P_{>}(x)=\exp_{\
