Abstract. In this study, we investigate the short run effect of the 30 October 1995 Quebec referendum on the common stock returns of Quebec firms. Our results show that the uncertainty surrounding the referendum outcome had an impact on stock returns of Quebec firms. We...

Abstract Aims To describe heparin dosing requirements in patients who underwent catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation with uninterrupted anticoagulation using dabigatran etexilate (dabigatran) or warfarin to attain therapeutic activated clotting time (ACT) in the RE...

We introduce a weakening of the Preparation Independence Postulate of Pusey, Barrett, and Rudolph that does not presuppose that the space of ontic states resulting from a product state preparation can be represented by the Cartesian product of subsystem state spaces. On...

As a novel bridge between the Dirichlet space $${\mathcal {D}}$$, the John–Nirenberg space $$\mathcal {BMOA}$$, and the Bloch space $${\mathcal {B}}$$ on the unit disk, the Moebius invariant analytic function space $$Q_{\log ,p}$$ founded directly on a Moebius invariant...

We present experimental results of atmospheric pressure glow discharges (APGD) in a dielectric barrier discharge reactor. These are examined in different noble gases and in the N/sub 2//O/sub 2/ system (air and pure N/sub 2/), under varying experimental conditions (freq...

America's most widely read nutritionist of the postwar decades, Adelle Davis, helped to shape Americans' eating habits, their child-feeding practices, their views about the quality of their food supply, and their beliefs about the impact of nutrition on their emotional ...

Feminist praxis is usually a conscious, reflexive process of moving from theory to application in order to create transformation. We want to expand the scope of feminist praxis, however, to include moments in which feminist theory explains political transformations that...

This paper presents a novel direct instantaneous torque and flux controller with an adaptive linear neuron (ADALINE)-based motor model for a high-performance direct drive permanent magnet synchronous motor (DD-PMSM). Usually, high-performance motor drives are characteri...

Summary In this paper, we formulated an analytical material–balance model (MBM) to predict cumulative heavy–oil and gas-production data, as well as the average reservoir pressures, during the primary production and subsequent cyclic solvent injection (CSI) in a heavy–oi...
