Nonlinear dynamics of interest rate and inflation

2004

According to several empirical studies, US inflation and nominal interest rates, as well as the real interest rate, can be described as unit root processes. These results imply that nominal interest rates and expected inflation do not move one-for-one in the long run, which is not consistent with the theoretical models. In this paper we introduce a nonlinear bivariate mixture autoregressive model that seems to fit quarterly US data (1952 Q1 – 2000 Q2) reasonably well. It is found that the three-month treasury bill rate and inflation share a common nonlinear component that explains a large part of their persistence. The real interest rate is devoid of this component, indicating one-for-one m…

Regional effects of monetary policy in the U.S.: An empirical re-assessment

2020

Abstract This paper provides an empirical re-assessment of the regional effects of monetary policy in the U.S. We use the narrative series of Romer and Romer (2004) as a measure of monetary policy shocks and impulse response functions estimated directly from a single equation spatial model. We find that monetary policy tightening leads to a persistent decrease in regional real personal income and employment, with asymmetric effects across regions that are magnified by spatial spillovers. The magnitude of the effects depends on the period under analysis and on the direction of the monetary policy shock. We also provide evidence of the existence of the interest rate and the housing market cha…

Un modelo no hidrostático global con coordenada vertical basada en altura

2015

Memoria presentada en la Universitat de València para optar grado de de Doctor Esta tesis documenta la investigación que he realizado en modelización atmosférica: se parte de las ecuaciones físicas de la atmósfera y se aplican métodos numéricos eficientes para encontrar una solución a dichas ecuaciones a partir de unas condiciones iniciales dadas. Para este fin, se ha desarrollado un modelo atmosférico cuyas características principales son: espectral en la representación horizontal de los campos, discretización vertical de alto orden de exactitud, y semi-implícito en la integración temporal. Además, el modelo es no hidrostático y tiene una coordenada vertical basada en altura, en vez de la …

Accurate Determination of the Neutron Skin Thickness of Pb208 through Parity-Violation in Electron Scattering

2021

We report a precision measurement of the parity-violating asymmetry A_{PV} in the elastic scattering of longitudinally polarized electrons from ^{208}Pb. We measure A_{PV}=550±16(stat)±8(syst) parts per billion, leading to an extraction of the neutral weak form factor F_{W}(Q^{2}=0.00616  GeV^{2})=0.368±0.013. Combined with our previous measurement, the extracted neutron skin thickness is R_{n}-R_{p}=0.283±0.071  fm. The result also yields the first significant direct measurement of the interior weak density of ^{208}Pb: ρ_{W}^{0}=-0.0796±0.0036(exp)±0.0013(theo)  fm^{-3} leading to the interior baryon density ρ_{b}^{0}=0.1480±0.0036(exp)±0.0013(theo)  fm^{-3}. The measurement accurately co…

Three-body approach to proton-hydrogen charge exchange and elastic scattering

1999

The impact-parameter Faddeev approach to atomic three-body collisions which has been developed for, and successfully applied to, ion-atom scattering processes, has now been developed further by including, instead of the Coulomb potentials, the full two-particle off-shell Coulomb {ital T} matrices in all {open_quotes}triangle{close_quotes} contributions to the effective potentials. Results of calculations of proton-hydrogen collisions with only the ground states of the hydrogen retained in both the direct and the rearrangement channels are presented. Total and differential electron transfer, as well as differential elastic scattering cross sections, are obtained simultaneously in very good a…

Proton-Hydrogen Charge Exchange and Elastic Scattering in the Faddeev Approach

2000

Results of the application of Faddeev-type integral equations to proton-hydrogen collisions are reported. The approach, realized in the impact parameter representation, incorporates the exact two-particle off-shell Coulomb T-matrices in all ‘triangle’ contributions to the effective potentials. Calculatedtotal and differential electron-transfer as well as differential elastic scattering cross sections show very good agreement with experiment, over a wide range of incident energies.

Erratum: An Inverse Backscatter Problem for Electric Impedance Tomography

2011

We fix an incorrect statement from our paper [M. Hanke, N. Hyvonen, and S. Reusswig, SIAM J. Math. Anal., 41 (2009), pp. 1948–1966] claiming that two different perfectly conducting inclusions necessarily have different backscatter in impedance tomography. We also present a counterexample to show that this kind of nonuniqueness does indeed occur.

Linear Waves in Electrical Transmission Lines

1996

Nowadays, linear transmission lines provide vital links in virtually all communications and computer systems, and the parallel-wire line is still widely used today in open-wire form, in coaxial cables and microstrips. The standard twoconductor transmission line is an important familiar system, that is able to support the propagation of transverse electromagnetic modes and is of great interest in many practical situations. We have all often studied this electrical circuit or variation of it in elementary electronics, physics, or mathematics courses (Ramo et al. 1965, Davidson 1978, Badlock and Bridgeman 1981). In fact, the study of linear transmission lines is an old problem: in their simple…

Thermodynamics of electrokinetic processes—I. Formulations

1990

Abstract The phenomenological equations of electrokinetic processes are studied according to five different formulations. Transformation matrices with Haase's formulation are given. A study of the measurable character of fluxes, forces and phenomenological coefficients in those formulations is also made. The extrinsic character, if so, of the formulations is examined and a general definition of formulations established only for binary solutions is given. Finally, a review of the literature is included, aiming to clarify the possible misunderstandings arising from the application of these five formulations.
