USING THE WRONG DISCOUNT RATE TO ALLOCATE A MARINE RESOURCE [PDF]
How does conventionally defined social welfare (SW) decline when a marine resource is allocated over time using a discount rate different from the social discount rate (SDR)?

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A mechanically programmable hydrogel for tissue engineering is developed by modulating the molecular threading density of poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate‐β‐cyclodextrin (PEGDA‐β‐CD) polyrotaxane and combining it with β‐CD‐modified gelatin. The polyrotaxane‐guided transition from disordered pores to laminar microstructures enables precise tuning ...

Country Risk, Foreign Borrowing and the Social Discount Rate in an Open Developing Economy [PDF]
Most discussions on the social rate of discount have assumed that the economy under consideration is isolated from the rest of the world, and that there are no capital movements.

Expected net present value, expected net future value, and the Ramsey rule [PDF]
, 2009 Weitzman (1998) showed that when future interest rates are uncertain, using the expected net present value implies a term structure of discount rates that is decreasing to the smallest possible interest rate.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Sustainable Na‐(Fe,Zn)Cl2 battery modules deliver discharge energies comparable to state‐of‐the‐art Na‐(Ni,Fe)Cl2 batteries through high active‐material utilization, although with lower power capability. Advanced electrochemical characterization reveals a distinct reaction mechanism and low resistance during Fe dechlorination.

Which Discount Rate for Sustainability?
Journal of Sustainable Finance and AccountingThere is a long-standing controversy about determining the discount rate at which companies should discount the long-term benefits of sustainability investments (e.g. for climate change mitigation and adaptation). While financial capital is discounted at the standard financial discount rate, this paper argues that companies should discount social and ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Top‐down ultrasonication produces highly emissive Cs2ZrCl6:Te4+ nanocrystals (NCs) with a PLQY of 65%, which is higher compared to that of the NCs synthesized by typical bottom‐up hot‐injection synthesis. The colloidal Cs2ZrCl6:Te4+ NCs have been found to be potential candidates for x‐ray scintillation imaging.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Here, we develop a high‐throughput algorithm that accelerates the elucidation of phase diagrams of topological spin textures using limited computational resources at high numerical accuracy. Applying this framework to the van der Waals magnet CrSBr, we unveiled a hierarchy of previously unknown topological textures (domain‐wall bimerons, bimeron chains,

The discount window : time for reform? [PDF]
For many years, the Federal Reserve's discount window has played an important role in monetary policy. Discount window borrowing helps individual depository institutions manage their reserve accounts in the presence of unexpected deposit and payments ...
