    Uncertainties in parton related quantities.

    No full text
    I discuss the issue of uncertainties in parton distributions and in the physical quantities which are determined in terms of them. While there has been significant progress on the uncertainties associated with errors on experimental data, there are still outstanding questions. Also, I demonstrate that in many circumstances this source of errors may be less important than errors due to underlying assumptions in the fitting procedure and due to the incomplete nature of the theoretical calculations

    Eastern Europe's experience with banking reform : is there a role for banks in the transition?

    No full text
    Are there lessons to be learned about how Eastern European countries have dealt with problems in their banking systems? What role have these countries assigned to banks during the transition? How have they used banks in dealing with the enterprise problem? The author addresses these questions by analyzing experience in Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and the former Czech and Slovak Federal Republic. Most of these countries have made substantial progress in restructuring their banking systems, but few have used their banking systems to improve the allocation of credit and hence stimulate the supply response. The author finds the following. The problem is not whether banks hold nonperforming loans but how banks can avoid accumulating more nonperforming loans. The underlying problem is how to close loss-making and nonviable enterprises. The countries that have encouraged the establishment of new private banks, that have introduced regulation and supervision, and that have tried to make banks more competitive have been more successful at improving the allocation of credit and achieving more control over loss-making enterprises. Banks must focus on assessing risk - and for this, capital, private ownership, and adequate regulation are crucial. How quickly banks achieve independence in credit decisions depends on how fast new governance structures can be introduced. In this, the five countries have been less successful. The objectives of bank recapitulation should be to prevent banks from accumulating more nonperforming loans (that is, dealing with the enterprise problem) and to give them the governance structure that would prevent them from incurring new nonperforming loans. This requires introducing a system of risk and reward - by making banks comply with capital adequacy requirements, by privatizing a critical number of banks, and by introducing strong regulation and supervision. Government should see that banks provide efficient payment systems, the basis for trust in banking systems. Introducing adequate regulation and supervision has been difficult as it requires knowing what the banks'role should be. Evidence strongly supports the need to recapitalize and privatize a critical number of banks. Authorities cannot rely on banks to exert control on enterprises early in the transition. In the early stages, control over state-owned enterprises should be exercised by a semipublic institution.Banks&Banking Reform,Financial Intermediation,Financial Crisis Management&Restructuring,Municipal Financial Management,Banking Law

    On the linear instability of the Ellis–Bronnikov–Morris–Thorne wormhole

    No full text
    We consider the wormhole of Ellis, Bronnikov, Morris and Thorne, arising from Einstein’s equations in presence of a phantom scalar field. In this paper we propose a simplified derivation of the linear instability of this system, making comparisons with previous works on this subject (and generalizations) by González, Guzmán, Sarbach, Bronnikov, Fabris and Zhidenko

    Letter dated 21 June 1967 from Wynne Thorne, Vice President of Research at Utah State University at Logan, Utah, to Walter H. Gardner of the Washington State University department of agronomy in Pullman, Washington, regarding the death of Sterling Taylor and asking about submitting an extensive obituary about himU T A H S T A T E U N I V E R S I TY D A R Y L C H A S E , PRESIDENT LOGAN, UTAH, 84321 OFFICE OF THE VICE PRESIDENT FOR RESEARCH June 21, 1967 Dr. Walter H. Gardner Department of Agronomy Washington Slate University Pullman, Washington Dear Walt: You have undoubtedly heard of the death of Sterling Taylor about two weeks ago. This is a great loss to us here at Utah State and it is also a distinct loss to the entire field of soil science. I am writing to you in your capacity as Editor In Chief of the Proceedings of the Soil Science Society of America. I wondered about your editorial policy, whether this would provide for a more extensive necrology statement about distinguished scientists than is ordinarily carried in Agronomy Notes. We are planning to submit a statement there. Certainly the contributions of Sterling to the field of soil and plant science are worthy of some memorial and a lasting place in the Society records. Best wishes. Sincerely yours, Wynjie Thorne Vice President for Research WT:e cc: Lorenzo A. Richards V AA* AAi^^f ~~AAJ ^ (
