The triggers and clustering properties of merger waves

open access: yesApplied Economics, 2016
ABSTRACTThis article studies the triggers and the agglomeration of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity within clusters constituted by time, market and industry. Based on almost 500,000 individual transactions, we find that industry factors play a significant role in triggering activity and that M&A agglomerates strongly across related industries ...

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Dynamic Merger Review [PDF]

open access: yes
We analyze the optimal dynamic policy of an antitrust authority towards horizontal mergers when merger proposals are endogenous and occur over time. Approving a currently proposed merger will affect the profitability and welfare effects of potential ...

Endogenous merger waves in vertically related industries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We study merger waves in vertically related industries where firms can engage in both vertical and horizontal mergers. Even though any individual merger would have been profitable, firms may refrain from merging for fear of negative impacts from other ...

What Drives Merger Waves? A Study of the Seven Historical Merger Waves in the U.S. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Historically, merger and acquisition (or M&A) activity has occurred in cyclical patterns, forming what are known as “merger waves.” To date, there have been a total of seven waves.

Mergers and Recoil in Triple Massive Black Hole Systems from Illustris

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Massive black hole binaries (MBHBs) form through galaxy mergers and are among the loudest sources of gravitational waves (GWs) in the Universe. If the binary inspiral time is long, a subsequent galaxy merger can introduce a third black hole, forming a ...

Probing kaon meson condensations through gravitational waves during neutron star inspiral phases

open access: yesPhysics Letters B
Gravitational waves from binary neutron star merger events have shown unparalleled advantages in deciphering the stellar internal structure, yet it remains underexplored to seek clues about kaon meson condensations inside massive neutron stars through ...

Spatially Modulated Morphotropic Phase Boundaries in a Compressively Strained Multiferroic Thin Film

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The coexisting rhombohedral‐like (R′, MA) and tetragonal‐like (T′, MC) monoclinic phases in compressively strained bismuth ferrite thin films exhibit exceptional piezoelectric and magnetic properties. While previous studies have largely focused on probing the morphotropic phase boundaries (MPBs) comprising ordered R′/T′ twins, their self ...

Betcha can’t acquire just one: merger programs and compensation [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper examines the evolution of merger programs, that is, repeated acquisitions by the same firm. Most acquisitions are made by firms with merger programs.
