Experimental validation of the reverse polar decomposition of depolarizing Mueller matrices [PDF]

Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2007
We experimentally assess the validity of the reverse polar decomposition (R. Ossikovski et al., Opt. Lett. 32, 689 (2007)), which describes any Mueller matrix as a product of a depolarizer, a diattenuator and a retarder with the diattenuator placed after

Climate Change Risk and Financial Stability: Implications for European Banking Institutions

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines whether climate change risk weakens banking‐system stability in the European Union and assesses how renewable energy adoption and energy‐related taxation moderate this relationship. Using panel data for 27 EU countries from 2012 to 2022 and applying fixed‐effects OLS, two‐stage least squares (2SLS), and robust generalized ...

Sum decomposition of Mueller matrices from beetle cuticles [Elektronisk resurs] [PDF]

, 2015
Spectral Mueller matrices are very rich in information about physical properties of a sample. We have recently shown that polarizing properties like ellipticity and degree of polarization can be extracted from a Mueller matrix measured on a beetle ...

Measurement of the optical activity of anisotropic samples by transmission Mueller matrix ellipsometry

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2010
In this work we review some of the approaches we have developed to study the optical activity in anisotropic samples. They all are based in the spectroscopic measurement of the normalized Mueller matrices of the samples.

Carbon Footprint of Bank Loans: Opportunities and Risk Implications in the Banking Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines whether the carbon footprint of bank loan portfolios influences bank stability, profitability and cost efficiency and whether regulatory quality moderates these relationships. Using a balanced panel of 33 countries from 2005 to 2018, the analysis combines banking‐sector indicators from the World Bank Global Financial ...

Climate‐Related Disclosure and Bank Performance: Does Bank Type Matter?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether climate‐related disclosure (CRD) affects the financial performance of conventional banks (CBs) and Islamic banks (IBs) differently. Using a unique hand‐collected dataset on CRD for 591 banks (422 CBs and 169 IBs) from 24 countries over a 4‐year period, we examine how the relationship between CRD and financial ...

Do Banks in the Middle East and North Africa Region Price Carbon Exposure?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines whether carbon exposure is incorporated into corporate borrowing costs within the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. Using a panel of 771 firm‐year observations from publicly listed non‐financial firms between 2016 and 2023, the analysis investigates the relationship between carbon intensity and firms' cost of debt

Sum regression decomposition of spectral and angle-resolved Mueller-matrices from biological reflectors [PDF]

, 2016
In this report we present studies on beetles of the Scarabaeidae family. The selected beetles show brilliant colors and in addition interesting polarization features.

Climate Adequacy and Market Risk: Are They Related? Empirical Evidence From the European Equity Market Before and After the Adoption of the Paris Agreement

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ESG ratings, and in particular environmental scores (E‐scores), are becoming increasingly relevant for financial stability and capital allocation decisions. This paper investigates the relationship between corporate environmental performance and market risk, as measured through value at risk (VaR) and expected shortfall (ES), the key metrics ...
