A barrier-penetration model for heavy-ion fusion, valid at all energies

We present a barrier-penetration model for heavy-ion fusion valid from the lowest energies available up to the largest energies for which the critical-radius picture is realistic. The parameters of the model are a critical radius and the parameters of a nucleus-nucleus interaction, whose form factor can be chosen freely. Fusion cross sections for a large number of systems, for which low-energy data exist, are fitted with a Woods-Saxon potential. Realistic parameters are obtained for the Coulomb barrier. Different applications and some limitations of the model are discussed. © 1982 Springer-Verlag.SCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

The effects of governments on management and organization

We review and integrate existing research from organization theory, strategy, organizational behavior, economics, sociology and political science on the effects of governments on organization and management, with a focus on how governing ideology and government capability influence independent organizations’ forms, strategies, and their participants’ behavior. When brought together these works suggest significant research opportunities in the fields of management and organization, as well as new perspectives on public policy challenges. Several avenues of potentially profitable empirical research include more attention to the influence of government on corporate strategies, more research on the strategies of pursuing corruption and government capture for competitive advantage, the role of government in fostering innovation and the growth of entrepreneurial organizations, and extra‐organizational contextual effects on managerial and employee organizational behavior. Possible public policy implications are illustrated with an application to the role of organizations in national wealth generation and dispersion
