Do State Lotteries Exploit their Lottery Power? Optimal Lotto Pricing With Heterogeneous Players: Evidence from the United Kingdom

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a new model of revenue‐maximising lottery pricing under income‐related heterogeneity and apply it to 13 years of UK National Lottery data. Our pricing rule shows how a state's lottery power is shaped by heterogeneities in lotto demand and the income distribution, and we study its efficiency and distributional implications.

PlantRG: A Comprehensive and User‐Friendly Database for Plant Resistance Gene Analogs (RGAs)

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Resistance genes are critical for plant defence against biotic stresses, and building a comprehensive, integrated data resource platform for these genes holds great significance for plant research and agriculture. Here, we developed PlantRG (http://plantrg.bio2db.com), a user‐friendly plant resistance gene database, which is built on 2 163 397

Photochemistry of CryB from Rhodobacter sphaeroides

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Elucidation of the photochemistry of CryB from Rhodobacter sphaeroides was achieved from the nanosecond to second timescale. A fast (<5 ns) deprotonation of the terminal electron donor Trp338 and the involvement of Tyr337 in photoreduction have been revealed.

What's Wrong With “Conceptual Amelioration”?

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.

First, ameliorators often fail to provide plausible stories to vindicate their claims about
