Whom You Know Matters: Venture Capital Networks and Investment Performance,
- Journal of Finance
, 2007
"... Abstract Many financial markets are characterized by strong relationships and networks, rather than arm's-length, spot-market transactions. We examine the performance consequences of this organizational choice in the context of relationships established when VCs syndicate portfolio company inv ..."

diffuse information across sector boundaries and expands the spatial radius of exchange, thus allowing VCs to diversify their portfolios In addition to improving deal flow, syndication networks may also help VCs add value to their portfolio companies. 1 Syndication networks facilitate the sharing
Dumb money: Mutual fund flows and the cross section of stock returns,
- Journal of Financial Economics,
, 2008
"... We thank Nicholas Barberis and Judith Chevalier for helpful comments. We thank Breno Schmidt for research assistance. ABSTRACT We use mutual fund flows as a measure for individual investor sentiment for different stocks, and find that high sentiment predicts low future returns. Fund flows are dumb ..."

matching portfolios). 4 Here the dumb money effect is substantially reduced, with the coefficient falling from -0.90 to -0.34 for three year flows, still significantly negative but less than half as large. As we shall see, this partially reflects the fact that high sentiment stocks tend to be stocks
The carbon balance of tropical, temperate and boreal forests.
- Plant Cell and Environment,
, 1999
"... ABSTRACT Forest biomes are major reserves for terrestrial carbon, and major components of global primary productivity. The carbon balance of forests is determined by a number of component processes of carbon acquisition and carbon loss, and a small shift in the magnitude of these processes would ha ..."

curve of an individual leaf can be approximated by a non-rectangular hyperbola Availability of light is strongly affected by cloudiness and low sun-angle conditions, but the effect of this on canopy photosynthesis is partially counteracted by the increased proportion of diffuse solar radiation, which
Reflected Brownian Motion in an Orthant: Numerical Methods for Steady-State Analysis
- Annals of Applied Probability
, 1992
"... This paper is concerned with a class of multidimensional diffusion processes, variously known as reflected Brownian motions, regulated Brownian motions, or just RBM's, that arise as approximate models of queueing networks. We develop an algorithm for numerical analysis of a semimartingale RBM w ..."

Party over Policy: The Dominating Impact of Group Influence
- on Political Beliefs.’’ Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
, 2003
"... Four studies demonstrated both the power of group influence in persuasion and people's blindness to it. Even under conditions of effortful processing, attitudes toward a social policy depended almost exclusively upon the stated position of one's political party. This effect overwhelmed th ..."

if the family had another child. By contrast, the "stringent policy" version provided only $250 per month and $50 for each additional child. It offered only partial medical insurance, and imposed a lifetime limit of 1.5 years without the possibility of reinstating aid. In contrast to the generous
Development of cell surface linkage complexes in cultured fibroblasts
- J. Cell
, 1985
"... ABSTRACT The possible role of a 140K membrane-associated protein complex (140K) in fibronectin-cytoskeleton associations has been examined. The 140K was identifed by the monoclonal antibody JG22E. Monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to the 140K showed identical patterns of binding to the cell membr ..."

Correlative localization with interference reflection microscopy and double-label or triple-label immunofluorescence showed that 140K co
An Algorithm for Computing Constrained Reflection Paths in Simple Polygons1
"... Let s be a point source of light inside a simple polygon P of n vertices. A path from s to some point t inside P is called a diffuse reflection path if the turning points of the path lie in the interiors of the boundary edges of P. A diffuse reflection path is said to be optimal if it has the minimu ..."

Preprint typeset using LATEX style emulateapj v. 6/22/04 DIFFUSE LIGHT IN THE VIRGO CLUSTER
, 2008
"... We present deep optical imaging of the inner ∼ 1.5 ◦ x1.5 ◦ of the Virgo cluster to search for diffuse intracluster light (ICL). Our image reaches a 1σ depth of µv=28.5 mag/arcsec 2 — 1.5 mag/arcsec 2 deeper than previous surveys — and reveals an intricate web of diffuse intracluster light. We see s ..."

galaxies in the core are embedded in common envelopes, suggesting they are true physical subgroups. The complex substructure of Virgo’s diffuse ICL reflects the hierarchical nature of cluster assembly, rather than being the product of smooth accretion around a central galaxy.
Near infrared reflectance spectroscopy for the fast identification of PVC-based films
, 2001
"... First published as an Advance Article on the web 19th June 2001 Near infrared (NIR) reflectance spectroscopy was used to develop a non-destructive and rapid qualitative method for the analysis of plastic films used by the pharmaceutical industry for blistering. Three types of films were investigated ..."

We have developed a simple model of this region which has been used to derive the physical conditions of the dust and gas. IRS1 is surrounded ..."
