Material ESG Performance and Bid Premium in Merger and Acquisition Deals

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the firm‐level and country‐level environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance on bid premiums in cross‐border mergers and acquisitions (M&A) transactions. We document considerable variations in bid premiums. Higher carbon emissions are associated with higher bid premiums, suggesting that acquirers may perceive ...

Self-consistent, global, neoclassical radial-electric-field calculations of electron-ion-root transitions in the W7-X stellarator

Nuclear Fusion
The radial electric field in the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator is computed by means of self-consistent, global, neoclassical simulations using the gyrokinetic particle-in-cell code EUTERPE.

The Bazaar as a Model for Knowledge Work

Knowledge and Process Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents fieldwork that extends existing metaphors of knowledge work as a process shaped by hierarchical or market forces. A qualitative, ethnographic study of six knowledge‐intensive businesses in two countries identifies striking parallels with the Middle Eastern bazaar in contrast to Western impersonal markets and hierarchies. We

Evaluation of neoclassical transport in nearly quasi-isodynamic stellarator magnetic fields using MONKES

Nuclear Fusion
Stellarator magnetic fields that are perfectly optimized for neoclassical transport (with levels of radial neoclassical transport comparable to tokamaks) are called omnigenous.

How social norms are integrated in natural resource co‐management

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Social norms are increasingly recognized as central elements in fostering cooperation and compliance in natural resource co‐management, especially where communities and governments share authority. Yet, their conceptualization and application across disciplines remain fragmented.

Study of Neoclassical Transport in LHD Plasmas by Applying the DCOM/NNW Neoclassical Transport Database

Plasma and Fusion Research, 2008
In helical systems, neoclassical transport is one of the important issues in addition to anomalous transport, because of a strong temperature dependency of heat conductivity and an important role in the radial electric field determination. Therefore, the development of a reliable tool for the neoclassical transport analysis is necessary for the ...

Blue‐Prints for Ocean Governance: Analyzing Resource Sustainability in International Blue Economic Frameworks

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Championed as a pathway for sustainable growth, the “blue economy” (BE) has garnered increasing interest in recent decades. International organizations like the World Bank and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) increasingly point to marine resources and activities as a “new frontier” for economic growth ...

Direct optimization of neoclassical ion transport in stellarator reactors

Nuclear Fusion
We directly optimize stellarator neoclassical ion transport while holding neoclassical electron transport at a moderate level, creating a scenario favorable for impurity expulsion and retaining good ion confinement.

On an Aggregation Theory for Indicators Expressing Behaviors of Complex Systems With an Application to Sustainability

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Certain attributes of large‐scale complex systems are often expressed through sets of indicators. For example, the sustainability of an entity, be it a nation, a city, an energy system, a corporation etc., can be effectively represented by indicators and corresponding data series.

Neoclassical transport in a elliptic tokamak [PDF]

The Physics of Fluids, 1977
Neoclassical transport for an elliptic tokamak in all collisional regimes is investigated by the technique of partitioning the velocity space. It is found that in a tokamak of moderate elongation, particle and ion heat confinement times are increased by a factor of sigma/sup 2/, where sigma is the ratio of vertical minor radius to horizontal minor ...
