Integration and arbitrage in the Spanish financial markets: An empirical approach*
2000
Several authors have introduced different ways to measure integra-tion between financial markets. Most of them are derived from thebasic assumptions about asset prices, like the Law of One Price or ...
Strategic sharing of a costly network
2012
We study minimum cost spanning tree problems for a set of users connected to a source. Prim’s algorithm provides a way of finding the minimum cost tree mm. This has led to several definitions in the literature, regarding how to distribute the cost. These rules propose different cost allocations, which can be understood as compensations and/or payments between players, with respect to the status quo point: each user pays for the connection she uses to be linked to the source. In this paper we analyze the rationale behind a distribution of the minimum cost by defining an a priori transfer structure. Our first result states the existence of a transfer structure such that no user is willing to …
The effects of monetary policy on income and wealth inequality in the U.S. Exploring different channels
2020
We assess the effects of monetary policy shocks on income and wealth inequality through direct inequality measures and by analyzing several transmission channels explored in recent literature. Furthermore, we analyze two additional channels: the Housing and the Fiscal channels. The methodology adopted is a Bayesian proxy SVAR using a high-frequency identification based on the external instruments approach. Our own policy shocks are constructed for this purpose. The results show that an expansionary monetary policy shock does not have a significant effect on income inequality due to the existence of opposite channels, whereas it increases wealth inequality mainly through the portfolio channe…

Fundamentals of photoelectrocatalysis
2022
Photoelectrocatalysis combines heterogeneous photocatalysis and electrocatalysis principles for numerous processes including the degradation of harmful compounds, the generation of H2 and O2 from water splitting, the reduction of CO2 or the photoelectrocatalytic synthesis of valuable organic molecules otherwise difficult to be synthetized with classical approaches. The recent progress of photoelectrocatalysis is heavily related to the development of materials, especially in 2D and nano materials. Highly ordered nanomaterials such as graphene, nanotubes, nanowires, etc. are gaining more attention due to their high surface area and excellent conductivity. Other challenges are the development …
An augmented MFS approach for brain activity reconstruction
2017
Abstract Weak electrical currents in the brain flow as a consequence of acquisition, processing and transmission of information by neurons, giving rise to electric and magnetic fields, which can be modeled by the quasi-stationary approximation of Maxwell’s equations. Electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) techniques allow for reconstructing the cerebral electrical currents and thus investigating the neuronal activity in the human brain in a non-invasive way. This is a typical electromagnetic inverse problem which can be addressed in two stages. In the first one a physical and geometrical representation of the head is used to find the relation between a given source mo…
SPARC experiments at the high-energy storage ring
2013
The physics program of the SPARC collaboration at the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) focuses on the study of collision phenomena in strong and even extreme electromagnetic fields and on the fundamental interactions between electrons and heavy nuclei up to bare uranium. Here we give a short overview on the challenging physics opportunities of the high-energy storage ring at FAIR for future experiments with heavy-ion beams at relativistic energies with particular emphasis on the basic beam properties to be expected.
Hydrothermal aging of carbon reinforced epoxy laminates with nanofibrous mats as toughening interlayers
2016
Electrospun mats have been applied as toughening interlayers in high performance carbon fiber epoxy composites. While the toughening mechanism exerted by the mat at the interface is the subject of several recent studies, no investigations are reported on the aging behaviour of laminates comprising these nanostructured elements. This work investigates the influence of the combined effect of water and temperature (90 °C) on laminates with Nylon 6,6 electrospun membranes placed either at the middle plane only or at each interlayer. The water-uptake behaviour is modelled by a two-stage diffusion model and compared with the behaviour of the neat resin and of the laminate without mats. Interestin…
POLYMER ELECTROSPUN NANOFIBERS AS INTERLEAVES FOR ENANCHEMENT OF CFRP LAMINATES DELAMINATION RESISTANCE
2019
Electrospinning process is a technique to produce nanoscale fibers that has evinced more interest in recent years due to its versatility and potential for applications in several applications. The mall size and the concomitant ultra-high specific surface area of electrospun nanofibers make them suitable for several applications, such as tissue engineering, biosensors, filtration and advanced polymer composites (1). In particular for carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) the huge specific surface area of electrospun nanofibers results in very large interfacial area between nanofibers and polymer matrix and therefore leads to substantial improvement of fiber-matrix interfacial interactions…
TIO2 brookite: Properties, synthesis and applications
2017
Brookite is one of the less studied polymorphic phases of titanium dioxide. Indeed, synthetic procedures affording brookite as a pure phase were not straightforward and have been only recently optimized. For this reason, brookite has received particular attention in the last years, especially as a promising photocatalytic material for environmental remediation and for the synthesis of valuable organic products. The present chapter will review the main synthetic methods reported in literature to produce brookite as a pure phase or mixed with rutile and/or anatase. Morphological, structural and electronic properties both of pure or variously modified brookite will be presented. The particular…
