The interest rate and credit channels in Belgium: An investigation with micro-level firm data [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper investigates the effects of monetary policy on firms' investment behaviour. The analysis relies on a comprehensive database of Belgian firms covering all sectors of economic activity and firms of all sizes. We proceed in two steps.

Self-Induced Selection: A New Approach to Quantum Decoherence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
According to Zurek, decoherence is a process resulting from the interaction between a quantum system and its environment; this process singles out a preferred set of states, usually called pointer basis, that determines which observables will receive ...

Uncovering the Electrochemical‐Thermal Coupling Behavior of Li Plating at Elevated Temperatures

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
The electrochemical‐thermal coupling behavior of Li plating at an elevated temperature of 60°C is studied. A distinctive exothermic peak appears corresponding to the Li plating plateau, while another characteristic exothermic peak during the relaxation stage is observed for the first‐time, attributed to the simultaneous Li stripping and re ...

"Concious procreation": Neo-Malthusianism in southern Europe and Latin America around 1900 [PDF]

open access: yes
One main concern of Ecological Economics is the balance between human population and natural resources. This is rightly named “the Malthusian question” because Malthus predicted that human populations, if unchecked, would grow exponentially while ...

An Application of the Individual Channel Analysis and Design Approach to Control of a Two-input Two-output Coupled-tanks System

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2012
Frequency-domain methods have provided an established approach to the analysis and design of single-loop feedback control systems in many application areas for many years.

The Production of a Sustainability Reporting Norm in Spanish State‐Owned Enterprises

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT State‐owned enterprises (SOEs) are hybrid organizations that pursue social and economic goals and are expected to engage in sustainability reporting. Previous literature has shown limited attention to examining the process by which a norm in sustainability reporting has emerged among SOEs.

Quantum field theory with classical sources - Linearized quantum gravity

open access: yes, 2019
In a previous work (Skagerstam 2018 arXiv:1801.09947v1 [quant-ph]) and in terms of an exact quantum-mechanical framework, h-independent causal and retarded expectation values of the second-quantized electro-magnetic fields in the Coulomb gauge were ...

Symbolic Versus Substantive ESG Practices: A Systematic Review and Integrative Framework

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ESG reporting is widespread, but symbolic commitments do not always reflect substantive practices. This study conducts a systematic literature review of 62 empirical articles published between 2021 and 2025 to synthesize the main determinants and consequences of this disclosure–performance misalignment in ESG reporting (commonly referred to as

Study review and conceptual approach: Urban extractivism (2014 – 2020)

open access: yesCuadernos de Administración
The article presents a review of studies conducted between 2014 and 2020 and a reference framework on urban extractivism, linking this concept to theories of classical authors in urban sociology and geography, as well as to contemporary scholars.

Effect of Magnetic Islands on Neoclassical Heat Diffusivity in a Global Tokamak Simulation

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) alter magnetic field topology via island formation and can modify core transport in toroidal fusion devices. Using the global gyrokinetic particle‐in‐cell code XGC‐S, originally developed for stellarator geometries, we quantify how island topology affects neoclassical heat transport in a circular tokamak ...
