title: The Effects of Economic News on Bond Market Liquidity
Creators: name: D'Souza, Christopher
name: Gaa, Charles
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2004

description: The authors contrast the impact of two sources of information flow on the volatility of prices, trading activity, and liquidity in the brokered interdealer market for Government of Canada bonds. Liquidity varies with the amount of asymmetric information in the market, and order flow plays a central role in the processing of information. The authors find a two-stage adjustment process in the period before and after a scheduled 8:30 a.m. macroeconomic news announcement that is similar to the adjustment process documented by Fleming and Remolona (1999) for the U.S. Treasury market. They contrast these dynamics with the adjustment that occurs around a Government of Canada bond auction. Results are somewhat inconsistent with the patterns observed around macroeconomic news events, but are explained by theory.
description: Les auteurs comparent l'incidence qu'ont les informations provenant de deux sources distinctes sur la volatilité des cours, l'activité et la liquidité dans le marché du courtage intermédiaire d'obligations du gouvernement canadien. La liquidité varie selon le degré d'asymétrie de l'information sur le marché, et les flux d'ordres jouent un rôle central dans le traitement de l'information. Les auteurs constatent qu'un processus d'ajustement en deux étapes a lieu durant la période qui précède et qui suit l'annonce prévue, à 8 h 30, d'une nouvelle macroéconomique, et que ce processus s'apparente à celui que décrivent Fleming et Remolona (1999) relativement au marché des titres du Trésor américain. Ils comparent cette dynamique avec l'ajustement qui s'opère avant et après les adjudications d'obligations du gouvernement canadien. Les résultats ne cadrent pas tout à fait avec les tendances observées lors de la publication de nouvelles macroéconomiques, mais ils trouvent leur explication dans la théorie.
title: International Cross-Listing and the Bonding Hypothesis
Creators: name: King, Michael R.

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2004

description: The authors describe a new view of cross-listing that links the impact on firm valuation to the firm's ability to develop an active secondary market for its shares in the U.S. markets. Contrary to previous research, cross-listing may not provide benefits for all firms, even when those firms meet the highest regulatory requirements for disclosure and supervision. When cross-listed firms are divided into two groups on the basis of their share turnover in the home market relative to the U.S. market, the firms that develop active trading in the U.S. market experience an increase in valuation. Cross-listed firms that remain predominantly traded in the home market following cross-listing are valued similarly to non-cross-listed firms. To gain the full benefits of crosslisting, a foreign firm must convince investors that their shareholder rights will be protected. The effectiveness of this reputational bonding is witnessed in the ratio of trading on the U.S. market relative to the home market.
description: Abordant la question sous un angle nouveau, les auteurs émettent l'idée que l'incidence de l'intercotation sur la valeur des actions d'une entreprise pourrait être liée à la capacité de celle-ci d'accroître le volume des transactions sur ses titres aux États-Unis. Contrairement à ce qu'ont conclu les chercheurs précédents, les sociétés ne gagneraient pas toutes à inscrire leur titre à une bourse étrangère, même lorsqu'elles satisfont aux obligations d'information et aux règles de surveillance les plus rigoureuses. Si l'on divise les entreprises intercotées en deux groupes en fonction de leurs volumes relatifs de transactions sur les marchés national et américain, on constate que celles dont le titre est activement échangé aux États-Unis sont évaluées plus favorablement. Les sociétés dont les actions continuent de se négocier surtout sur le marché d'origine après leur admission à la cote d'une bourse américaine ne sont pas évaluées différemment de celles qui sont cotées uniquement dans leur pays d'attache. Pour tirer le maximum d'avantages de l'intercotation, l'entreprise étrangère doit convaincre les investisseurs qu'elle respectera leurs droits d'actionnaires. Le volume des transactions effectuées sur le marché américain plutôt que national indique à quel point elle y est parvenue.

description: Automatic assessment of code, in particular to support education, is an important feature included in several Learning Management Systems (LMS), at least to some extent. Several kinds of assessments can be designed, such as exercises asking to "fill the following code", "write a function that", or "correct the bug in the following program", for example. One difficulty for instructors is to create such programming exercises, in particular when they are somewhat complex. Indeed, instructors need to write the statement of the exercise, think about the solution and provide all the additional information necessary to the platform to grade the assessment. Another difficulty occurs when instructors want to use their exercises on another LMS platform. Since there is no standard way to define and describe a coding exercise yet, instructors have to re-encode their exercises into the other LMS. This paper presents a tool that can automatically generate programming exercises, from one single and unique description, and that can be solved in several programming languages. The generated exercises can be automatically graded by the same platform, providing intelligent feedback to its users to support their learning. This paper focuses on and details unit testing-based exercises and provides insights into new kinds of exercises that could be generated by the platform in the future, with some additional developments.

description: Cyclotron-resonance (CR) spectra of a gas of interacting polarons confined in a GaAs/AlAs quantum well are theoretically investigated taking into account the magneto-plasmon-phonon mixing and band nonparabolicity. Contributions of different magneto-plasmon-phonon modes to the total magneto-polaron coupling strength are investigated as a function of the electron density. It is confirmed theoretically, that the resonant magneto-polaron coupling in a high-density GaAs/AlAs quantum well occurs near the GaAs TO-phonon frequency rather than near the GaAs LO-phonon frequency. Calculated CR spectra are in agreement with recent experimental data.

description: This paper introduces the concept of spin-orbit-torque-MRAM (SOT-MRAM) based physical unclonable function (PUF). The secret of the PUF is stored into a random state of a matrix of perpendicular SOT-MRAMs. Here, we show experimentally and with micromagnetic simulations that this random state is driven by the intrinsic nonlinear dynamics of the free layer of the memory excited by the SOT. In detail, a large enough current drives the magnetization along an in-plane direction. Once the current is removed, the in-plane magnetic state becomes unstable evolving towards one of the two perpendicular stable configurations randomly. In addition, an hybrid CMOS/spintronics model is used to evaluate the electrical characteristics of a PUF realized with an array of 16x16 SOT-MRAM cells. Beyond robustness against voltage and temperature variations, hardware authentication based on this PUF scheme has additional advantages over other PUF technologies such as non-volatility (no power consumption in standby mode), reconfigurability (the secret can be rewritten), and scalability. We believe that this work is a step forward the design of spintronic devices for application in security.

risk mitigation

description: Debris flows are one of the most frequent mass movement processes and occur in all regions with steep relief and at least occasional rainfall. Their high flow velocity, impact forces, and long runout, combined with poor temporal predictability, cause debris flows to be one of the most hazardous landslide types. An essential aspect of debris-flow risk management is the design of mitigation measures, which reduce the existing risk to an accepted level of residual risk, by reducing the potential damage that the moving mass can produce in terms of loss of human life and destruction of structures and infrastructures. Among these mitigation measures, transverse retention structures are used to delimit storage basins and prevent dangerous debris flows from reaching high- consequence areas. Due to the enormous impact forces that debris flows can exert on obstacles in their path, a reasonable planning requires that dynamic stresses are taken into account during the structural designing process, regardless of the complete (solid body barrier) or partial (open barrier) retention function that the type of selected structure can exert on the flowing mass. Since the village of Cancia, close to Cortina d’Ampezzo (Italian Dolomites), is hit by destructive debris flows for a long time, a storage basin delimited by natural and gabion barriers was built in 2000. In 2009 a severe event caused the partial collapse of the gabions and the overflow of the flowing mass. The present paper analyses through numerical modelling the dynamics of the flow and the influence of an abandoned building, existing inside the storage basin, on the occurred event.
title: When Bad Things Happen to Good Banks: Contagious Bank Runs and Currency Crises
Creators: name: Solomon, Raphael
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2004

description: The author develops a twin crisis model featuring multiple banks. At each bank, domestic and foreign depositors play a banking game. This game has a run and a no-run equilibrium. Bank failures drain reserves in addition to those drained when foreign agents convert domestic currency to foreign. The fixed exchange rate collapses if a threshold number of banks fail. Agents observe sunspots to aid their equilibrium selection. The numerical solution matches somewhat the Turkish financial sector prior to the crisis of 2001. The Turkish exchange rate appears to have exposed the financial system to a 10 per cent risk of collapse.
description: L'auteur élabore un modèle des crises jumelles (crise de liquidité bancaire suivie d'une crise de change) où il y a plusieurs banques. Dans chacune d'elles, les déposants nationaux et étrangers se livrent à un jeu bancaire comportant deux équilibres : un équilibre de panique bancaire et un équilibre sans panique bancaire. Si des banques font faillite, les réserves diminuent, tout comme lorsque les non-résidents convertissent dans la devise étrangère leurs fonds en monnaie locale. Le régime de changes fixes s'effondre si le nombre de faillites bancaires dépasse un certain seuil. Les agents sont attentifs à des aléas de type « tache solaire » dans le choix de leur équilibre. La solution numérique obtenue recouvre relativement bien la situation du secteur financier turc d'avant la crise de 2001. La politique de taux de change de la Turquie semble avoir exposé le système financier du pays à un risque d'effondrement de 10 %.

description: We report on zero-field muon spin relaxation studies of cerium based heavy-fermion materials CeRh_{1-x}Ir_xIn_5. In the superconducting x=0.75 and 1 compositions muon spin relaxation functions were found to be temperature independent across T_c; no evidence for the presence of electronic magnetic moments was observed. The x=0.5 material is antiferromagnetic below T_N=3.75 K and superconducting below T_c=0.8 K. Muon spin realxation spectra show the gradual onset of damped coherent oscillations characteristic of magnetic order below T_N. At 1.65 K the total oscillating amplitude accounts for at least 85% of the sample volume. No change in muon precession frequency or amplitude is detected on cooling below T_c, indicating the microscopic coexistence of magnetism and superconductivity in this material.

description: Using French data on industrial firms over the period 1989-2001, the authors estimate a "flexible" Translog production function that accounts for the volumes and durations of factor utilization. They draw on the framework proposed by Blundell and Bond (2000), assuming that serially correlated shocks allow a dynamic representation of the production function, and they choose the system-generalized method of moments as the reference estimation method. The authors show that duration of capital utilization is statistically significant and that the dynamic common-factor representation cannot be rejected. Furthermore, the duration of work is not statistically significant. Finally, the authors cannot reject the assumption of a Cobb-Douglas technology. Their result can be explained by the fact that durations of factor utilization are explicitly taken into consideration in the production function. Otherwise, the Translog specification is preferred to the Cobb-Douglas production function.
description: À partir de données d'entreprises industrielles françaises sur la période 1989-2001, nous estimons une fonction de production « flexible », de type Translog, tenant compte des volumes et des durées d'utilisation des facteurs. Nous reprenons le cadre élaboré par Blundell et Bond (2000) en supposant l'existence de chocs autocorrélés permettant une représentation dynamique de la combinaison productive et utilisons comme méthode de référence les moments généralisés en système. Nous montrons que la durée d'utilisation du capital est statistiquement significative et que l'on ne peut pas rejeter la représentation dynamique adoptée. Par ailleurs, la durée du travail n'est pas statistiquement significative. Finalement, les données utilisées ne permettent pas de rejeter l'hypothèse d'une fonction de production de type Cobb-Douglas. Ce résultat semble devoir s'expliquer par la prise en compte des durées d'utilisation des facteurs. Lorsque celles-ci sont omises, l'hypothèse d'une fonction de production de type Cobb-Douglas est en effet fortement rejetée au profit d'une spécification Translog.
title: Exact Tests of Equal Forecast Accuracy with an Application to the Term Structure of Interest Rates
Creators: name: Luger, Richard
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2004

description: The author proposes a class of exact tests of the null hypothesis of exchangeable forecast errors and, hence, of the hypothesis of no difference in the unconditional accuracy of two competing forecasts. The class includes analogues of the well-known Diebold and Mariano (1995) parametric and non-parametric test statistics. The forecast errors can be non-normal and contemporaneously correlated, and general forms of the loss function are admitted. The nonparametric distribution-free property of these new tests makes them robust to the presence of conditional heteroscedasticity, heavy tails, and outliers in the loss-differential series. These tests are used with a randomization or "Monte Carlo" resampling technique, which yields an exact and computationally inexpensive inference procedure. Simulations confirm the reliability of the new test procedure, and its power is found to be comparable with that of the size-corrected parametric Diebold-Mariano test. The test procedure is illustrated with an application to the term structure of interest rates. The application shows that exchangeable forecast errors can be found empirically even when comparing forecasts from estimated models.
description: L'auteur propose une classe de tests exacts de l'hypothèse nulle d'interchangeabilité des erreurs de prévision, c'est-à-dire de l'hypothèse voulant que l'exactitude inconditionnelle de deux prévisions concurrentes n'affiche aucune différence. Cette classe réunit des statistiques de test analogues à celles des tests paramétriques et non paramétriques bien connus de Diebold et Mariano (1995). Les erreurs de prévision peuvent ne pas suivre une loi normale et être corrélées de façon contemporaine. De plus, la fonction de perte peut prendre des formes générales. Le caractère non paramétrique de ces nouveaux tests, dont la statistique ne suit aucune loi prédéfinie, explique leur robustesse en présence d'hétéroscédasticité conditionnelle, de courbes de forme plus pointue et de valeurs aberrantes dans la série issue de la comparaison des fonctions de perte. Les tests s'accompagnent d'une randomisation ou d'un rééchantillonnage à la Monte-Carlo, ce qui débouche sur une procédure d'induction exacte et peu exigeante sur le plan des calculs. Les simulations confirment la fiabilité de ce nouveau test, dont la puissance se compare à celle du test paramétrique de Diebold et Mariano à niveau corrigé. Appliqué à titre illustratif à la structure des taux d'intérêt, le test montre que les erreurs de prévision peuvent s'avérer interchangeables empiriquement même lorsqu'on compare des prévisions obtenues à partir de modèles estimés.
title: Commodity-Linked Bonds: A Potential Means for Less-Developed Countries to Raise Foreign Capital
Creators: name: Atta-Mensah, Joseph
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2004

description: The author suggests that commodity-linked bonds could provide a potential means for less-developed countries (LDCs) to raise money on the international capital markets, rather than through standard forms of financing. The issue of this type of bond could provide an opportunity for commodity-producing LDCs to hedge against fluctuations in their export earnings. The author's results show that the value of a commodity-linked bond increases as the price of the commodity indexed to the bond rises; this suggests that, if LDCs had issued debt contracts that were tied to their main export commodities, then their debt load would decline along with plummeting export prices (or export revenues). A simple portfolio rule derived by the author suggests that LDCs should issue more commodity-linked bonds than conventional debt if the variance of the portfolio is greater than twice the spread between the expected total return of the conventional debt and the commodity-linked bond. This rule supports the view that, if more of the LDCs' debt were issued in the form of commodity-linked bonds, then the debt-service payment of the LDCs would decline along with export prices (or export revenues), thus lightening their debt load.
description: L'auteur voit dans les obligations indexées sur les prix des produits de base un levier susceptible d'aider les pays en développement à se procurer des capitaux sur les marchés financiers internationaux, de préférence aux méthodes classiques de financement. L'émission de titres de ce genre pourrait offrir à ceux de ces pays qui sont riches en matières premières un moyen de se prémunir contre les fluctuations de leurs recettes d'exportation. Les résultats de l'étude montrent que la valeur de ces obligations augmente avec le cours du produit de base sur lequel elles sont indexées. Cela donne à penser que, si les pays en développement émettaient des contrats d'emprunt référencés sur leurs principaux produits d'exportation, le fardeau de leur dette s'allégerait quand les cours de ces produits (ou leurs recettes d'exportation) diminuent. Selon la règle simple que propose l'auteur, les pays en développement devraient recourir davantage à l'émission d'obligations indexées sur les prix des matières premières qu'à celle d'obligations ordinaires si la variance de leur dette est deux fois plus élevée que l'écart entre les rendements totaux espérés des deux types d'obligations. Cette règle tend à confirmer les bienfaits qu'un recours accru aux émissions d'obligations indexées aurait sur le fardeau de la dette des pays en développement, du fait que l'évolution du service de la dette suivrait alors celle des prix des produits exportés (et des recettes correspondantes).

title: Exchange Rate Pass-Through and the Inflation Environment in Industrialized Countries: An Empirical Investigation
Creators: name: Bailliu, Jeannine
name: Fujii, Eiji
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2004

description: This paper investigates the question of whether a transition to a low-inflation environment, induced by a shift in monetary policy, results in a decline in the degree of pass-through of exchange rate movements to consumer prices. It differs from previous empirical work in its focus on the identification of changes in the inflation environment and its use of a panel-data approach. Evidence from a panel-data set of 11 industrialized countries over the period from 1977 to 2001, supports the hypothesis that exchange rate pass-through declines with a shift to a low-inflation environment brought about by a change in the monetary policy regime. More specifically, the results suggest that pass-through to import, producer, and consumer price inflation declined following the inflation stabilization that occurred in many industrialized countries in the early 1990s but did not decline following a similar episode in the 1980s. Several potential explanations for this finding are discussed, including the possibility that changes in the monetary policy regimes implemented in the 1990s were perceived as more credible than those carried out in the 1980s, and the possibility that the credibility of the new monetary policy regimes was acquired over time.
description: Dans cet article, les auteurs tentent de répondre à la question de savoir si l'instauration d'un climat de faible inflation, sous l'effet d'une réorientation de la politique monétaire, atténue le degré de transmission des variations du taux de change aux prix à la consommation. Leur étude se démarque des analyses empiriques antérieures car elle s'emploie particulièrement à déceler les changements concernant l'inflation et met à profit une approche reposant sur des données de panel. Les observations recueillies à l'aide d'un ensemble de données de panel se rapportant à onze pays industrialisés et couvrant la période 1997-2001 étayent l'hypothèse selon laquelle le degré de transmission des variations du taux de change s'atténue avec le passage à un climat de faible inflation par suite d'une réorientation de la politique monétaire. Plus précisément, les résultats indiquent que le degré de transmission aux prix à l'importation, à la production et à la consommation aurait diminué après la stabilisation de l'inflation survenue dans bon nombre de pays industrialisés au début des années 1990, mais pas après un épisode similaire qui s'était produit dans les années 1980. Cette constatation génère plusieurs explications potentielles qui sont examinées dans l'article, y compris la possibilité que les changements de politique monétaire opérés dans les années 1990 aient été jugés plus crédibles que ceux mis en place durant les années 1980 ou encore la possibilité que les nouveaux cadres de conduite de la politique monétaire aient acquis leur crédibilité au fil du temps.

description: The authors construct three financial conditions indexes (FCIs) for Canada based on three approaches: an IS-curve-based model, generalized impulse-response functions, and factor analysis. Each approach is intended to address one or more criticisms of the monetary conditions index (MCI) and existing FCIs. To evaluate their three FCIs, the authors consider five performance criteria: the consistency of each FCI's weight with economic theory, its graphical ability to predict turning points in the business cycle, its dynamic correlation with output, its in-sample fit in explaining output, and its out-of-sample performance in forecasting output. Using monthly data, the authors find, in general, that housing prices, equity prices, and bond yield risk premiums, in addition to short- and long-term interest rates and the exchange rate, are significant in explaining output from 1981 to 2000. They also find that the FCIs outperform the Bank of Canada's MCI in many areas.
description: Les auteurs élaborent trois nouveaux indices des conditions financières au Canada. Le premier est fondé sur la courbe IS, le second sur l'établissement de profils de réaction généralisés et le troisième sur l'analyse factorielle. Les méthodes retenues pour la construction de ces indices visent à répondre à l'un ou plusieurs des reproches adressés à l'indice des conditions monétaires de la Banque du Canada et aux autres indices en usage. Les trois nouveaux indices sont évalués à l'aune des cinq critères suivants : la conformité de leur pondération à la théorie économique, leur capacité à prévoir les points de retournement du cycle économique, leur corrélation dynamique avec la production, leur capacité à expliquer la production à l'intérieur de l'échantillon et à la prévoir hors échantillon. Travaillant avec des données mensuelles, les auteurs constatent, de manière générale, que le prix des logements, les cours boursiers et les primes de risque relatives aux obligations, tout comme les taux d'intérêt à court et à long terme et le taux de change, permettent d'expliquer l'évolution que la production a connue entre 1981 et 2000. Ils relèvent également que leurs indices surpassent, à de nombreux égards, l'indice des conditions monétaires de la Banque.

description: We introduce a convolution on a 2-sphere and use it to show that the linearised Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin transformations and gauge fixing conditions of Einstein-Hilbert gravity coupled to a two-form and a scalar field, follow from the product of two Yang-Mills theories. This provides an example of the convolutive product of gauge theories on a non-trivial background.

title: Competition in Banking: A Review of the Literature
Creators: name: Northcott, Carol Ann
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2004

description: The author reviews the theoretical and empirical literature to examine the traditional perception that the following trade-off exists between economic efficiency and stability in the banking system: a competitive banking system is more efficient and therefore important to growth, but market power is necessary for stability in the banking system. That this trade-off exists is not clear. Market power can have positive implications for efficiency, and the potentially negative implications of competition on stability may be manageable through prudential regulation. Neither extreme (perfect competition nor monopoly) is likely ideal. Rather, it may be optimal to facilitate an environment that promotes competitive behaviour (contestability), thereby minimizing the potential costs of market power while realizing benefits from any residual that remains. It can be very difficult to assess the contestability of a banking market. Recent work suggests that the number of banks and the degree of concentration are not, in themselves, sufficient indicators of contestability. Other factors play a strong role, including regulatory policies that promote competition, a well-developed financial system, the effects of branch networks, and the effect and uptake of technological advancements.
description: À la lumière de la littérature théorique et empirique, l'auteure examine le paradigme traditionnel voulant qu'il existe un arbitrage entre l'efficience économique et la stabilité du système bancaire. Un système bancaire concurrentiel serait en effet plus efficient et contribuerait ainsi à la croissance, mais, pour que le système jouisse d'une certaine stabilité, les banques doivent aussi posséder un pouvoir de marché. L'existence de cette relation d'arbitrage n'est pas clairement établie. Le pouvoir de marché peut avoir des répercussions positives sur l'efficience, alors que les retombées potentiellement négatives de la concurrence sur la stabilité pourraient être contenues grâce à une réglementation prudentielle. Ni la concurrence parfaite ni le monopole ne représente vraisemblablement un idéal. La solution optimale est peut-être de promouvoir un environnement qui favorise la concurrence (ou la contestabilité du marché), afin de réduire au minimum les coûts potentiels du pouvoir de marché tout en tirant parti des avantages de tout pouvoir résiduel. Il n'est pas facile d'évaluer la contestabilité d'un marché bancaire. Des travaux récents donnent à penser que le nombre de banques et le degré de concentration ne constituent pas en eux-mêmes de bons indicateurs de la contestabilité. D'autres facteurs jouent un rôle important, notamment l'existence de réglementations qui encouragent la concurrence et d'un système financier bien développé, les effets de la présence de réseaux de succursales, de même que l'incidence des innovations technologiques et le rythme auquel elles se répandent.

description: By learning the optimal policy with a double deep Q-learning network, we design ultra-broadband, biomimetic, perfect absorbers with various materials, based the structure of a moths eye. All absorbers achieve over 90% average absorption from 400 to 1,600 nm. By training a DDQN with motheye structures made up of chromium, we transfer the learned knowledge to other, similar materials to quickly and efficiently find the optimal parameters from the around 1 billion possible options. The knowledge learned from previous optimisations helps the network to find the best solution for a new material in fewer steps, dramatically increasing the efficiency of finding designs with ultra-broadband absorption.
Radio continuum emission from local analogs of high-z faint LAEs: Blueberry galaxies

description: We present a radio continuum study of a population of extremely young and starburst galaxies, termed as blueberries at ${\sim}$ 1 GHz using the upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT). We find that their radio-based star formation rate (SFR) is suppressed by a factor of ${\sim}$ 3.4 compared to the SFR based on optical emission lines. This might be due to (i) the young ages of these galaxies as a result of which a stable equilibrium via feedback from supernovae has not yet been established (ii) escape of cosmic ray electrons via diffusion or galactic scale outflows. The estimated non-thermal fraction in these galaxies has a median value of ${\sim}$0.49, which is relatively lower than that in normal star-forming galaxies at such low frequencies. Their inferred equipartition magnetic field has a median value of 27 $μ$G, which is higher than those in more evolved systems like spiral galaxies. Such high magnetic fields suggest that small-scale dynamo rather than large-scale dynamo mechanisms might be playing a major role in amplifying magnetic fields in these galaxies.

description: We present 29 optical spectra of the normal Type Ia SN 1998aq, ranging from 9 days before to 241 days after the time of maximum brightness. This spectroscopic data set, together with photometric data presented elsewhere, makes SN 1998aq one of the best observed Type Ia supernova at optical wavelengths. We use the parameterized supernova synthetic-spectrum code SYNOW to study line identifications in the early photospheric-phase spectra. The results include evidence for lines of singly ionized carbon, at ejection velocities as low as 11,000 km/sec. Implications for explosion models are discussed.

HD/H$_2$ ratio in the diffuse interstellar medium

description: We present a semi-analytical description of the relative HD/H2 abundance in the diffuse interstellar medium. We found three asymptotics of the relative HD/H$_2$ abundance for different parts of the medium and their dependence on the physical parameters, namely, number density, intensity of the ultraviolet field, cosmic-ray ionization rate and metallicity. Our calculations are in a good agreement with the full network calculations using Meudon PDR code. We found that in the case of low metallicity and/or higher cosmic ray ionization rate, HD formation rate is significantly enhanced, HD/H2 ratio increases, and the DI/HD transition occurs at a lower penetration depth of UV radiation than the HI/H$_2$ transition. This can explain the observed difference in the HD/H$_2$ abundance between the local and high-redshift measurements.

title: Money Demand and Economic Uncertainty
Creators: name: Atta-Mensah, Joseph
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2004

description: The author examines the impact of economic uncertainty on the demand for money. Using a general-equilibrium theory, he argues that in a world inhabited by risk-averse agents, who are constantly making portfolio decisions against a backdrop of macroeconomic uncertainty, the demand for money is a function of real income and interest rates, and an index of economic uncertainty. The author then uses the Johansen procedure of cointegration to estimate the long-run stationary relationships between a Canadian monetary aggregate (M1, M1++, and M2++) and the explanatory variables. Allowing for an index of economic uncertainty to enter the short-run dynamics of the estimated model, the author obtains empirical results that show that, in general, increased economic uncertainty leads, in the short run, to a rise in the desired M1 and M1++ balances that agents would like to hold. The impact of economic uncertainty on M2++ is, however, observed to be negative.
description: L'auteur examine l'incidence de l'incertitude économique sur la demande de monnaie. Partant d'un cadre d'équilibre général, il soutient que, dans un monde où les agents ont une aversion pour le risque et doivent prendre leurs décisions de placement dans un contexte d'incertitude au sujet de l'évolution de l'économie, la demande de monnaie est une fonction du revenu réel, des taux d'intérêt et d'un indice de l'incertitude économique. L'auteur fait appel au test de cointégration de Johansen pour estimer les relations stationnaires en longue période qui existent entre les agrégats monétaires canadiens (M1, M1++ et M2++) et les variables explicatives. Si un indice de l'incertitude économique est intégré à la dynamique à court terme du modèle estimé, les résultats empiriques montrent qu'en règle générale, une augmentation de l'incertitude économique donne lieu, à court terme, à un relèvement du niveau des encaisses entrant dans M1 et M1++ que les agents souhaitent détenir. L'incidence de l'incertitude économique sur M2++ se révèle quant à elle négative.
