Journal Article
Barrell, R., Becker, B., Byrne, J., Gottschalk, S., Hurst, I., & van Welsum, D. (2004). Macroeconomic policy in Europe: Experiments with monetary responses and fiscal impulses. Ecological Modelling, 21(5), 877-931. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.econmod.2003.10.005

In this paper we discuss the main model properties of NiGEM, the National Institute's large-scale macroeconometric model. NiGEM is a ‘New-Keynesian’ model where agents display forward-looking behaviour but there are nominal rigidities slowing adjustm...

In GaN and other group III nitrides the considerable lattice mismatch with the substrates normally employed during growth, such as sapphire, 6H-SiC and ZnO, can lead to the presence of strain which may affect the surface properties. Here we have stud... Read More about Ab initio studies of strained wurtzite GaN surfaces.

We explore physics behind the horizon in eternal AdS Schwarzschild black holes. In dimension d > 3 , where the curvature grows large near the singularity, we find distinct but subtle signals of this singularity in the boundary CFT correlators. Buildi...

Fluid is continually being exchanged between the vascular space and the interstitium, and is returned to the vascular space via the lymph. The net balance of this movement determines the amount of fluid in the tissue. If there is too little fluid in... Read More about Capillary dynamics and interstitial fluid lymphatic system.
