Political Risk in Latin America by David Soto Bello

“… Abstract Political risk (PR) is a fascinating concept in the political science literature, yet researchers could do more to evaluate PR in Latin America. In this paper, we contribute to filling the gap by presenting the risks investors must consider when building portfolios in developing economies, such as changes in economic policy or impeachment processes. …”

Verifying the resonance schemes of unstable particles at lepton colliders by Shao-Feng Ge, Ui Min, Zhuoni Qian

“…We propose practical ways of differentiating the various (Breit-Wigner, theoretical, and energy-dependent) resonance schemes of unstable particles at lepton colliders. First, the energy-dependent scheme can be distinguished from the other two by fitting the Z lineshape scan and forward-backward asymmetries at LEP and future lepton colliders with the Z mass mZ, decay width ΓZ, and coupling strength as fitting parameters. …”
