CEO's Early‐life Experience of Disasters and Corporate Environmental Performance

open access: yesAbacus, EarlyView.
We investigate the nexus between the early‐life disaster experiences of chief executive officers (CEOs) and their firms’ environmental performance metrics. We hypothesize that first‐hand experience of the adversities of natural disasters in the formative years of a CEO can catalyze a transformation in their environmental cognizance and perspective ...

Cash‐holding Benefits and Their Influence on Seasoned Equity Offering Decisions

open access: yesAbacus, EarlyView.
This study investigates the cash‐holding motivations of issuers with excess cash. It aims to explain why these issuers choose to accumulate even more cash through stock issuances rather than utilize their existing surplus. I assess three competing cash‐holding motivation hypotheses: whether issuers raise cash: (i) to fund the needs of future growth ...

Tax Planning Under Pressure: The Impact of Carbon Emissions Management Post‐Paris Agreement

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine how the Paris Agreement affects corporate tax planning across a global data set. We find that emissions‐reducing firms are associated with higher levels of tax planning than nonemissions‐reducing firms. The effect is stronger for firms facing tighter cost pass‐through constraints, such as operating in more competitive markets, with ...

Measuring the time‐varying market efficiency in the prewar and wartime Japanese stock market, 1924–1943

open access: yesAsia‐Pacific Economic History Review, Volume 65, Issue 1, Page 131-159, March 2025.
Abstract This study examines the adaptive market hypothesis in the prewar and wartime Japanese stock market using a new market capitalization‐weighted price index. First, we find that the degree of market efficiency varies over time and with major historical events. This implies that the hypothesis is supported in this market.

Trade and FDI Policies in an Interdependent World: Lessons From East Asia

open access: yesAsian Economic Policy Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article, we examine the spillover effects of trade and FDI policy changes on countries that are not directly involved—that is third markets. Specifically, we investigate this issue using two cases: anti‐dumping tariffs imposed on Chinese exports and China's relaxation of restrictions on inward FDI.

Polarization Signatures of Bow Shocks in Stellar Winds

EAS Publications Series, 2015
Bow shocks around massive stars provide important information regarding the motion of the star, the stellar wind properties, and the density of the surrounding interstellar medium. We use a Monte Carlo radiative transfer code to investigate the polarization created when photons from a central star scatter from electrons or dust grains in a surrounding ...

Bow Shock Structures Near Young Stellar Objects

1988
We have obtained narrow band CCD images of several Herbig-Haro objects resembling bow shocks. As predicted by bow shock theory, we find that the region of highest excitation coincides with the apex of the proposed shock.

Exact Analytic Solutions for Stellar Wind Bow Shocks

The Astrophysical Journal, 1996
Stellar wind bow shocks have been seen in association with a wide variety of stellar objects, from pulsars to young stars. A new solution method is presented for bow shocks in the thin-shell limit, stressing the importance of the conserved momentum within the shell.

Collision between dissimilar clouds: stability of the bow-shock, and the formation of pre-stellar cores

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2010
We use smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) to simulate a head-on collision between two physically dissimilar clouds, and investigate the dynamical stability of the post-collision bow-shock. The shock-front appears susceptible to a number of hydrodynamical instabilities such as the Kelvin―Helmholtz instability, the Rayleigh-Taylor instability, and the
