Escaping the Regional Carbon Trap: The Role of Renewable Energy Innovation in EU Decarbonisation

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The persistence of carbon‐intensive development pathways continues to hinder progress towards climate neutrality, especially in regions where industrial legacies, infrastructural inertia, and institutional rigidities reinforce emissions.

BioTrade, Frontier Technology Readiness, and the Load Capacity Curve: Sustainable Development Dynamics in Sub‐Saharan Africa

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the nonlinear dynamics among income, ecological sustainability, and sustainable development in Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA) within the Load Capacity Curve (LCC) framework, incorporating BioTrade and frontier technology readiness as novel structural determinants.

Motivational and Behavioural Determinants of Participation in Renewable Energy Communities

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) are increasingly recognised as key instruments for supporting the energy transition, promoting citizen engagement, and enhancing the integration of renewable energy sources. However, limited evidence is available on how motivational factors and behavioural mechanisms jointly influence individuals ...

Nonlinear Effects of Renewable Energy Integration on Sustainable Development in OECD Countries

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the nonlinear relationship between the green quality of the energy mix and sustainable development in 35 OECD countries from 1995 to 2022. Unlike conventional renewable‐energy shares, the Green Quality Index (GQI) is an emissions‐weighted indicator that accounts for differences in the carbon intensity of energy sources and ...

The Pink Tax: Price Discrimination, Product Differentiation, and Gender‐Based Pricing in Consumer Packaged Goods

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the economic mechanisms underlying persistent price gaps between products marketed to women and men, which is often referred to as the “Pink Tax.” Using NielsenIQ scanner data on toothbrushes, we provide evidence of gendered price differentials and analyze two mechanisms central to the literature: gender‐based price ...

Generative AI—the Transgression of Technology

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article offers a systems‐theoretical analysis of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) grounded in Niklas Luhmann's sociology of technology. It addresses a central conceptual problem: How GenAI can be understood within a theoretical framework that has traditionally defined technology as a means of stabilising action through causal ...

Quantum‐Native Formulations for X‐Ray Fluorescence: Spectral Overlap, Sparse Elemental Identification, and Spatial Inference

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis combines spectral inverse modeling, elemental support selection and spatial interpretation. We develop quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) and Ising formulations for these tasks. A detector‐response dictionary of broadened candidate emission‐line profiles induces a spectral overlap graph that ...

Evolutionary Dynamic Multiobjective Optimisation Assisted by Inverse Regression Tree Predictor

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dynamic multiobjective optimisation problems (DMOPs) are optimisation problems with multiple conflicting objectives that can change over time. Most dynamic multiobjective optimisation evolutionary algorithms (DMOEAs) attempt to estimate Pareto‐optimal sets (PS) directly in the decision space.

Does Economic Performance in Home Countries Impact Immigrants' Labour Market Outcomes? Evidence from Australia*

Economic Record, EarlyView.
This paper provides causal evidence that persistent changes in macroeconomic conditions in immigrants' countries of origin shape their labour market behaviour in the host country. We develop and empirically test a reference‐dependent framework in the spirit of Kőszegi and Rabin (2006), in which immigrants evaluate their material well‐being in the host ...
