    Firm R&D, Absorptive Capacity and Learning by Exporting: Firm-level Evidence from China

    No full text
    The absorptive capacity of firms developed through R&D promotes learning by exporting. In this paper, we estimate the instantaneous and long-run productivity effects of exporting on the universe of Chinese manufacturing firms. We find that exporting has very different productivity effects for firms with different pre-export R&D status. It has large and lasting productivity effects for firms with pre-export R&D, while it has little effects for firms without pre-export R&D. Furthermore, the effect of exporting increases with the number of years of pre-export R&D investment.Business, FinanceEconomicsInternational RelationsSSCI0ARTICLE91131-11453

    R-parity violating supersymmetry at IceCube

    No full text
    AbstractThe presence of R-parity violating (RPV) supersymmetric interactions involving high-energy neutrinos can lead to resonant production of TeV-scale squarks inside large-volume neutrino detectors. Using the ultra-high energy neutrino events observed recently at the IceCube, with the fact that for a given power-law flux of astrophysical neutrinos, there is no statistically significant deviation in the current data from the Standard Model expectations, we derive robust upper limits on the RPV couplings as a function of the resonantly-produced squark mass, independent of the other unknown model parameters, as long as the squarks decay dominantly to 2-body final states involving leptons and quarks through the RPV couplings. With more statistics, we expect these limits to be comparable/complementary to the existing limits from direct collider searches and other low-energy processes

    HERMITE-HADAMARD TYPE INEQUALITIES FOR PREINVEX FUNCTIONS WITH APPLICATIONS

    In this article, we establish new Hermite-Hadamard Type inequalities for functions whose first derivative in absolute value are preinvex. Further, we give some application of our obtained results to some special means of real numbers. Moreover, we discuss several special cases of the results obtained in this paper.BHU-UGC Non-NET fellowship [R/Dev./Sch./UGC Non-Net Fellowship/2022-23/58420]IoE Scheme [6031]The first author is financially supported by BHU-UGC Non-NET fellowship R/Dev./Sch./UGC Non-Net Fellowship/2022-23/58420.

    Photon-bunching in ground-based submillimeter-wave astronomy

    No full text
    DESHIMA (the Deep Spectroscopic High-Redshift Mapper) is a 347 channel superconducting spectrometer with spectral resolution R =500 that operates in the range of 220GHz to 440GHz and can therefore accurately measure the frequency of spectral lines in order to calculate redshift z.This report investigates the sensitivity of DESHIMA-like spectrometers by investigating photon noise due to Poisson and bunching effects. It gives a broad overview of photon statistics and explains, through an analogous model, that photon bunching occurs due to an underlying change in the probabilistics, rather than the act of detecting itself. After that I investigate photon and quasiparticle recombination noise for a DESHIMA-like spectrometer with Lorentzian filters and find a closed form equation for NEP per channel for a constant power spectral density arriving at the filters.Previously the bandwidth of the filters was assumed to be negligible, resulting in an overestimation of the bunching. Because the photons that are impinging on the detector span a bigger bandwidth, the bunching is a factor of π/2 smaller than previously approximated.This NEPτ is defined at an integration time of τ=0.5s. For other integration times this is scalable, however this will only hold while the integration time is much bigger than the coherence time τ≫tcoh. Because of the correlation between photons arriving shorter than a coherence time apart, the scaling of the NEPτ drops in cases when τ≫̸tcoh.Finally I propose and describe modifications to the sensitivity model DESHIMA uses. The following features have been be improved and added:- Integrate over the entire power spectrum when calculating photon noise- Use arbritatry filter designs loaded from a file- Improve estimations of the quantities that express sensitivityI compare the proposed modifications to the old model, which has previously been compared with measurement results, and use it to validate the changes. Other than the previously mentioned factor of π/2 for the bunching term and the smoothing out in local extrema, the modified simulation results are similar to the old model. This is because the Lorentzian filters have a small bandwidth ν≫Δν, such that the previous narrowband approximation held for most non-extreme cases.https://joristiebosch.github.io/thesis/ Interactive version available https://github.com/deshima-dev/deshima-sensitivity Python model described in ThesisDESHIMAApplied Physic

    A role for SUMO modification in transcriptional repression and activation

    Full text link
    Since the discovery of the SUMO (small ubiquitin-related modifier) family of proteins just over a decade ago, a plethora of substrates have been uncovered including many regulators of transcription. Conjugation of SUMO to target proteins has generally been considered as a repressive modification. However, there are now a growing number of examples where SUMOylation has been shown to activate transcription. Here, we discuss whether there is something intrinsically repressive about SUMOylation, or if the outcome of this modification in the context of transcription will prove to be largely substrate-dependent. We highlight some of the technical challenges that will be faced by attempting to answer this question
