Updated Standard Model Prediction for ε′/ε

2018

Abstract A recent lattice evaluation of e ′ / e , finding a 2.1 σ deviation from the experimental value, has revived the old debate about a possible e ′ / e anomaly. The unfounded claims of a too low Standard Model prediction are based on incorrect estimates that neglect the long-distance re-scattering of the final pions in K → 2 π . In view of the current situation, we have recently updated the Standard Model calculation, including all known short- and long-distance contributions. Our result, Re ( e ′ / e ) = ( 15 ± 7 ) ⋅ 10 − 4 [H. Gisbert and A. Pich, “Direct CP violation in K 0 → π π : Standard Model Status”, Rept. Prog. Phys. 81 (2018) no. 7, 076201 arXiv:1712.06147 [hep-ph] .], is in …

The Content of Economic Partnership Agreements

2021

This chapter contains the second part of exemplary EPA critique related to the content of the treaties. All relevant economic aspects and clauses of the trade-in-goods agreements are critically examined, including the market access offer, quantitative restrictions, trade remedies, export duties and subsidies, national treatment and procurement, and rules of origin. The agreed and proposed clauses are submitted to scrutiny of whether the remaining policy space still allows sensible infant industry protection in Africa. The analysis concludes that some policy space is left for targeted developmental efforts by African governments but is made very difficult in the practical management of the n…

A Joint Time-Space Domain Analysis for Ultra-Reliable Communication in 5G Networks

2018

Reliable communication is a fundamental service level agreement criterion in wireless networks. Moreover, it is a performance indicator for ultra- reliable communication (URC) in emerging 5G networks. In URC, the quality of the delivered services to end-users ultimately depends on the availability of network resources as well as the quality of the received signal. Therefore, in order to analyze URC in cellular networks, both time- dependent spectrum availability and space-dependent service quality need to be considered. In this paper, we present a combined time and space domain analysis on network reliability based on a continuous time Markov chain model. To this end, we introduce a new rel…

Formalismo e antiformalismo nell'interpretazione dei trattati nei recenti lavori della Commissione del diritto internazionale

2019

In its Draft Conclusions on subsequent agreements and subsequent practice in relation to the interpretation of treaties the International Law Commission (ILC) has taken a formalistic approach to treaty interpretation, according to which the interpreter should aim at discovering the will of the Parties (and the true meaning of a treaty clause) by using a single combined operation. This means that the interpreter should throw into a crucible all the means of interpretation indicated in Articles 31 and 32 of the 1969 Vienna Convention. The present paper suggests that the depiction of the interpreter as an alchemist who blends different ingredients and gives them the proper weight is a cover th…

Carbon Emissions Announcements and Market Returns

2023

The paper investigates the impact of carbon emissions on stock price returns of European listed firms. This relationship is assessed across all three emissions scopes, as well as using expecta-tions to detect if future emissions impact contemporary returns. Our findings show that firms with higher expected future emissions deliver contemporary lower returns, after controlling for market capitalization, profit, and other known return predictors. This result is statistically sig-nificant in the post Paris Agreement period with a two to three years expectation on scope 2 emissions. However, there is marginal to no significant negative relationship between current emissions and current returns.…

Mechanisms of the national character stereotype: How people in six neighbouring countries of Russia describe themselves and the typical Russian

2009

Altogether, 1448 individuals from six neighbouring countries of Russia in the Baltic Sea region (Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Belarus) described a ‘typical’ member of their own nation and a ‘typical’ Russian, as well as rated their own personality, using the National Character Survey (NCS). Results suggest that national character stereotypes are widely shared, temporally stable and moderately related to assessed personality traits, if all assessments are made using the same measurement instrument. In all studied countries, agreement between national auto‐stereotypes and assessed personality was positive and in half of the samples statistically significant. Although membe…

The micro-politics of parliamentary powers : European parliament strategies for expanding its influence in the EU institutional system

2018

The European Parliament (EP) has gained considerable new powers since it was first established in 1952. Why has this happened, and how should the powers the EP possesses be assessed? This article suggests a novel approach that focuses on inter-institutional micropolitics and the processes in which the EP obtained its powers rather than treaty changes at IGCs. Interinstitutional micropolitics are carried out by institutions and their members who act politically and shape the EU’s system from within. The EP’s successes in interinstitutional micropolitics are shaped by (1) its existing powers that need to be assessed in their differentiation; (2) the interparliamentary setting and the power co…
