The Perils of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Controversies: Implications for a Firm's Financial and Nonfinancial Performance

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although ESG controversies are on the rise, research investigating them yields contradictory findings. The paper provides resolutions to the debate through investigating (a) how ESG controversies influence firms' short‐term and long‐term financial performance; (b) how firms navigate ESG controversies' effect; and (c) how ESG controversies ...

Hydrogen Migration Enhances Proton‐Coupled Electron Transfer in an S‐Scheme Heterojunction for High‐Efficiency Photocatalysis

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Precisely directed built‐in electric field in an S‐scheme heterojunction synergizes photogenerated charge separation with interfacial proton migration, thus co‐localizing electrons and protons on the NOH surface and boosting proton‐coupled electron transfer kinetics in the rate‐determining hydrogen release step. ABSTRACT The kinetic bottleneck in solar‐

Explanation of the Gibbs paradox within the framework of quantum thermodynamics

open access: yes, 2006
The issue of the Gibbs paradox is that when considering mixing of two gases within classical thermodynamics, the entropy of mixing appears to be a discontinuous function of the difference between the gases: it is finite for whatever small difference, but

Hydroquinone Oxidation by Redox‐active Guanidines and Thioguanidines: Faster Conversion to High‐Potential Than to Low‐Potential Quinones

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
New redox‐active oligothioguanidines are developed and used in dehydrogenative P–P coupling reactions and hydroquinone oxidations. Tetrathioguanidino‐ and tetraguanidinobenzenes oxidize high‐potential halogenated hydroquinones faster than relatively low‐potential hydroquinone.

Partial identification with categorical data and nonignorable missing outcomes

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Nonignorable missing outcomes are common in real‐world datasets and often require strong parametric assumptions to achieve identification. These assumptions can be implausible or untestable, and so we may wish to forgo them in favour of partially identified models that narrow the set of a priori possible values to an identification region.

Demonstration and resolution of the Gibbs paradox of the first kind

open access: yes, 2013
The Gibbs paradox of the first kind (GP1) refers to the false increase in entropy which, in statistical mechanics, is calculated from the process of combining two gas systems S1 and S2 consisting of distinguishable particles.

Bottlenecks‐Breaking in Zinc‐Iodine Batteries Toward Practical Implementation: A Review and Perspective

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Aqueous zinc–iodine batteries (Zn–I2Bs) offer promise for grid storage due to safety and cost advantages yet face critical bottlenecks: severe self‐discharge (polyiodide shuttling and HER), limited energy density, sluggish kinetics, and zinc anode instability.

Quantum Chaos and Quantum Randomness—Paradigms of Entropy Production on the Smallest Scales

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
Quantum chaos is presented as a paradigm of information processing by dynamical systems at the bottom of the range of phase-space scales. Starting with a brief review of classical chaos as entropy flow from micro- to macro-scales, I argue that quantum ...

Yet another resolution of the Gibbs paradox: an information theory approach

open access: yes, 2001
The ``Gibbs Paradox'' refers to several related questions concerning entropy in thermodynamics and statistical mechanics: whether it is an extensive quantity or not, how it changes when identical particles are mixed, and the proper way to count states in
