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.

Effective coordination numbers from EXAFS: general approaches for lanthanide and actinide dioxides
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 ...

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 ...

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.

ABSTRACT Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are promising vehicles for targeted therapeutic delivery, but strategies for their surface functionalization remain limited. Here, we present a reliable and simple genetic approach that enables customized modification of sEV surfaces and supports enhanced sEV uptake by recipient cells. This strategy is based

Earnings risk and heterogeneous expected earnings profiles
We add to the debate about whether models of earnings dynamics should allow for unobservable heterogeneity in expected earnings growth rates by examining implications for a statistic originally proposed to estimate the variance of persistent earnings shocks.

The payroll tax contribution limit and women's labor market outcomes
Abstract Objective To examine the effect of the male partner's entry into payroll tax‐exempt earnings on the female partner's labor market outcomes. Background Employees only pay payroll taxes up to a specific limit, which results in a comparatively greater increase in the take‐home pay of individuals who earn labor incomes above this threshold.
