Stock Market Returns: A Temperature Anomaly
This study investigates if stock market returns are related to the temperature. Psychological research has shown that temperature is one of the meteorological variables that significantly affect people's mood. Mood changes in turn lead to behavioral changes. It is known that lower temperatures can lead to aggression, while higher tempratures...

Unsteady State Numerical Simulation of the High Temperature Air Combustion by the Nongray Radiative Analysis
Characteristics of combustion and heat transfer in the high temperature air combustion furnace were analyzed by assuming radiative properties of combustion gases that were non-gray and inhomogeneous medium. To estimate the radiation field of the high temperature air combustion accurately, the radiative properties of gases should be calculated by the...

Do Asset Prices Reflect Fundamentals? Freshly Squeezed Evidence From the FCOJ Market
This paper reexamines frozen concentrated orange juice FCOJ futures returns as they relate to fundamentals, in particular, temperature. The paper shows that when theory clearly identifies the fundamental, i.e., at temperatures close to or below freezing, there is a close link between FCOJ prices and that fundamental. Using a simple...

Fluorinated Phthalazinone-Containing Copolyimides for Passive Optical Waveguides
A series of fluorinated copolyimides containing phthalazinone moieties were prepared from 2, 2-bis (3, 4- dicarboxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane dianhydride (6FDA), 3, 3'4, 4'-benzophenone-tetracarboxylic dianhydride BPDA and 2-(4-aminophenyl)-4-[4-(4-aminophenoxyl)phenyl]-2,3-phthalazin-1-one (DHPZ-2NH2) for making polymeric optical waveguides. The resulting copolymers containing 0-50 mol% BPDA/ DHPZ-2NH2 show good solubility and are soluble in some organic polar...

A Multistage Solar Receiver: The Route to High Temperature
A high-temperature solar thermal receiver is subjected to temperature-dependent emission and convection losses. In such a partitioned system, the working fluid is gradually heated as it passes through a sequence of receiver elements with increasing irradiance levels. The high-temperature receiver stage is the Directly Irradiated Annular Pressurized Receiver DIAPR. The...

The Influence of Gas Parameters on the Results of Spirometric Test
The paper presents a metrological analysis of the influence of the expiratory gas physical features on the preciseness of the parameters defined during lung tests. Two kinds of spirometric transducers are taken into consideration: a volumetric transducer and a flowmeter. When a volumetric transducer is used, the gas inside changes...

Heat Pump Water Heaters
Heat pumps seemingly defy the laws of physics. They take heat from a low temperature source and, with efficiencies of 200 to 300 percent, raise its temperature. A heat pump works like a refrigerator in reverse. While refrigerators take heat from inside a box and dump that heat to a...
