The drivers of merger waves [PDF]
Economics Letters, 2012 A reduced form hazard rate model of merger timing, estimated using a uniquely constructed 1990–2004 UK panel data set, shows clear correlations between the observed wave-like pattern of merger activity and both exogenous and endogenous drivers with firm characteristics acting as intermediaries.

A CRITICAL REVIEW OF NEOCLASSICAL AND BEHAVIOURAL THEORIES OF MERGER WAVES [PDF]
Financial Studies, 2022 This paper aims to identify and critically evaluate the theoretical explanations of mergers happening in clusters. We identified two streams of theories: neoclassical and behavioural explanations of merger waves. Neoclassical theories include q theory

Pre/Post-Merger Consistency Test for Gravitational Signals from Binary Neutron Star Mergers
Particles, 2023 Gravitational waves from binary neutron star (BNS) mergers can constrain nuclear models, predicting their equation of state (EOS). Matter effects on the inspiral-merger signal are encoded in the multipolar tidal polarizability parameters, whose leading ...

Dynamics and Merger Rate of Primordial Black Holes in a Cluster
Universe, 2022 The PBH clusters can be sources of gravitational waves, and the merger rate depends on the spatial distribution of PBHs in the cluster which changes over time.

Are There Waves in Merger Activity after All? [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2006 This paper investigates the merger wave hypothesis for the US and the UK employing a Markov regime switching model. Using quarterly data covering the last thirty years, for the US, we identify the beginning of a merger wave in the mid 1990s but not the much-discussed 1980s merger wave.

What Drives the Payment of Higher Merger Premiums?
Gadjah Mada International Journal of Business, 2009 This study examines whether the premiums paid to targets firms are affected by bidder CEO overconfidence, merger waves, method of payment, industry of merged firms, and capital liquidity.

Gravitational Wave Speed: Undefined. Experiments Proposed [PDF]
Research Ideas and Outcomes, 2018 Since changes in all 4 dimensions of spacetime are components of displacement for gravitational waves, a theoretical result is presented that their speed is undefined, and that the Theory of Relativity is not reliable to predict their speed ...

The Merger of Two Compact Stars: A Tool for Dense Matter Nuclear Physics
Universe, 2018 We discuss the different signals, in gravitational and electromagnetic waves, emitted during the merger of two compact stars. We will focus in particular on the possible contraints that those signals can provide on the equation of state of dense matter ...

An Empirical Assessment of the 2004 EU Merger Policy Reform [PDF]
, 2010 Based on a database of 326 merger cases scrutinized by the European Commission between 1990 and 2007, we evaluate the economic impact of the change in European merger legislation in 2004.
