The Measurement‐Impact Gap: A Bibliometric Diagnosis of Development Finance Institutions and SDG Research

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a topic of growing scholarly importance. While existing literature has mapped the thematic scope of this field, a critical diagnosis of its intellectual structure and inherent biases is missing.

The Biased Interaction Game: A System Theoretic Approach to the Emergence of Inequality, Hierarchy, and the Implications for the Likelihood of Cooperation

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The emergence of cooperation in natural selection has been successfully studied using game theory and, despite the underlying selfish nature of the evolutionary process, a spectrum of plausible mechanisms have been proposed to determine the conditions under which cooperative behaviour is likely to occur.

Experimental Investigations on the Impact of Operational Conditions on Bubble Dynamics and the Resulting Vibrations in Gas‐Stirred Ladles

steel research international, EarlyView.
This study applies sensitive vibration sensors to investigate gas bubble behavior in liquid metal during argon injection. Analysis of vibration signals provides insights into bubble evolution and the influence of gas flow and surface pressure. The results provide a basis for improved vibration‐based two‐phase flow models, enhancing accuracy in ...

The Effect of Detector Nonlinearity on WFIRST PSF Profiles for Weak Gravitational Lensing Measurements [PDF]

, 2016
Weak gravitational lensing (WL) is one of the most powerful techniques to learn about the dark sector of the universe. To extract the WL signal from astronomical observations, galaxy shapes must be measured and corrected for the point-spread function ...

State of the Field: The History of Masculinities

History, EarlyView.
Abstract This State of the Field article discusses how, when and why the history of masculinities has emerged since the 1980s, and why it continues to be an important research field today. The article begins with the field's multiple origin stories and then discusses its expansion in chronology, geography and theme, as well as newer directions for ...

Precision Measurement of Large Shear Signals

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
So far, estimators of galaxy shape distortions are only carefully studied perturbatively in the case of small shear signals, mainly for weak-lensing science.

Angular ellipticity correlations in a composite alignment model for elliptical and spiral galaxies and inference from weak lensing

, 2018
We investigate a physical, composite alignment model for both spiral and elliptical galaxies and its impact on cosmological parameter estimation from weak lensing for a tomographic survey. Ellipticity correlation functions and angular ellipticity spectra

THE CONTESTED URBANISM OF ABANDONMENT: The Afterlife of Two Distressed Neighborhoods in Detroit

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In post‐industrial cities in decline, what happens to leftover spaces after abandonment? This question lies at the root of trying to make sense of entrenched distress in neighborhoods in deindustrializing Detroit, a city struggling for more than five decades with disinvestment, job losses, population shrinkage, a collapsed housing market ...

Collective identity and the coalescence of an expert occupational community: The case of the Canadian tax profession

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Although the community of tax professionals is a key actor in the tax realm, its nature continues to remain elusive in many countries. Using a qualitatively driven mixed‐methods approach that integrates the insights obtained from in‐depth interviews and the results of a survey of practitioners, we examine the Canadian tax field.
