We perform a general algebraic analysis on the possibility of realising slow-roll inflation in the moduli sector of string models. This problem turns out to be very closely related to the characterisation of models admitting metastable vacua with non-negat ...
The allocation of resources for research is increasingly based on so-called ‘bibliometrics’. Scientists arenow deemed to be successful on the sole condition that their work be abundantly cited. This world-wide trendappears to enjoy support not only by gran ...
The World is facing major challenges regarding environmental threats, resource constraints and the large unbalance of wealth among developing and developed countries. Energy engineering is at the core of the actions to be undertaken to meet these challenge ...

We analyze the implications of a global carbon tax on CO2 to finance the damage and adaptation costs of developing countries (DCs) using the computable general equilibrium model GEMINI-E3. We considered two options, first, that the tax is only applied to i ...
In this technical report we describe a scenario designed by the "Office fédérale de l’environnement" (Mr Romero), this scenario is detailed in table 1. In this scenario we assume that a carbon tax 1 USD2001 per ton of CO2 (i.e. 3.66 USD per ton of carbon) ...
To analyze the effects of decellularization on the biomechanical properties of porcine common carotid arteries, decellularization was performed by a detergent-enzymatic procedure that preserves extracellular matrix scaffold. Internal diameter, external dia ...
Abstract We study macroeconomic stabilization when monetary and fiscal policies interact via their effects on output and inflation and the monetary authority is more conservative than the fiscal. We find that monetary- fiscal interactions result in poor ma ...
Although migration and development are high on the international political agenda today, there is a shortage of data on diasporas in the host countries as well as a lack of information on their transnational practices and impact on the development of their ...
