Infrared Photovoltaic–Battery Hybrid Systems Enabled by Colloidal Quantum Dots

open access: yesChemistry – An Asian Journal, Volume 20, Issue 21, November 3, 2025.
Photovoltaic–battery (PV/B) hybrid systems are key for sustainable energy but face cost and efficiency limits. Colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) enable low‐cost near‐infrared light harvesting, surpassing silicon and III–V PVs. This review analyzes CQD properties, their roles in NIR PVs and batteries, and synthesizes current research to highlight progress ...

A Novel Fourth-Order Finite Difference Scheme for European Option Pricing in the Time-Fractional Black–Scholes Model

open access: yesMathematics
This paper addresses the valuation of European options, which involves the complex and unpredictable dynamics of fractal market fluctuations. These are modeled using the α-order time-fractional Black–Scholes equation, where the Caputo fractional ...

An analytical framework to price long‐dated climate‐exposed assets

open access: yesQuantitative Economics, Volume 16, Issue 4, Page 1093-1146, November 2025.
This paper uses a tractable stochastic integrated‐assessment model to analyze the influence of climate change on asset returns across time and maturity. Quasi‐analytical, or recursive, formulas allow to price various long‐dated assets, including fixed‐income products, derivatives, and equities.

Effects of Social Media‐Based Peer Opinions on the Prices of Cryptocurrency Options

open access: yesJournal of Futures Markets, Volume 45, Issue 10, Page 1512-1543, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Using a text‐based measure of peer opinions constructed from cryptocurrency‐related social media posts, we find that peer opinions contain valuable information about the prices of cryptocurrency options. Bitcoin options exhibit a volatility smile, which becomes steeper when peer opinions become bearish.

Contrasting Carbon and Water Flux Dynamics in an East African Rangeland and Cropland

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract This study examines carbon (C) and water dynamics in two East African dryland ecosystems: a savanna rangeland grazed by livestock and wildlife, and a rainfed cropland under minimal tillage. Over 185 days, both systems were showed a similar magnitude of C emissions with differing temporal patterns.

Estimating Magnitude Completeness in Earthquake Catalogs: A Comparative Study of Catalog‐Based Methods

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Without careful attention to the earthquake catalog completeness, claims of novel discoveries or forecasting skills lack credibility. Estimating the completeness magnitude (Mc) is therefore a critical step in seismological analysis. Among the available techniques, catalog‐based methods are the most accessible and widely adopted, and they also ...

Registered index‐linked annuities in qualified retirement plans

open access: yesJournal of Risk and Insurance, Volume 92, Issue 3, Page 665-691, September 2025.
Abstract Many Americans remain financially underprepared for retirement. While automatic enrollment in employer‐sponsored retirement plans has helped, target‐date funds (TDFs) used as default investments have limitations. We propose target‐date registered index‐linked annuities (TD‐RILAs) as a transparent, cost‐effective alternative providing ...

Market Consistent Valuation for Bitcoin Options With Long Memory in Conditional Volatility and Conditional Non‐Normality

open access: yesJournal of Futures Markets, Volume 45, Issue 8, Page 917-945, August 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the economic consequences for Bitcoin options' prices of a long memory in conditional volatility and conditional non‐normality of Bitcoin returns. The arbitrage‐free prices of Bitcoin options are determined by market consistent valuation and the conditional Esscher transform. Monte Carlo estimates for option prices from
