Global Value Chains and Market Formation Process in Emerging Export Activity: Evidence from Ethiopian Flower Industry

経済学 / EconomicsThis paper provides a case study of the Ethiopian flower export industry which successfully emerged at time when the EU market (main destination) was already characterized by increasingly stringent standards and delivery requirements. Entering this market required a multitude of capabilities at firm, sector and national levels. Several of these capabilities were absent or weak in the domestic market when the new activity kicked off. The paper analyzes how the capabilities of individual firms and the industry at large co-evolved and the role of various actors in the ‘market formation’ process.JEL Classification Codes: O12, O13, O19http://www.grips.ac.jp/list/jp/facultyinfo/sonobe_tetsushi

Study of the doubly charmed tetraquark T+cc

Quantum chromodynamics, the theory of the strong force, describes interactions of coloured quarks and gluons and the formation of hadronic matter. Conventional hadronic matter consists of baryons and mesons made of three quarks and quark-antiquark pairs, respectively. Particles with an alternative quark content are known as exotic states. Here a study is reported of an exotic narrow state in the D0D0π+ mass spectrum just below the D*+D0 mass threshold produced in proton-proton collisions collected with the LHCb detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The state is consistent with the ground isoscalar T+cc tetraquark with a quark content of ccu⎯⎯⎯d⎯⎯⎯ and spin-parity quantum numbers JP = 1+. Study of the DD mass spectra disfavours interpretation of the resonance as the isovector state. The decay structure via intermediate off-shell D*+ mesons is consistent with the observed D0π+ mass distribution. To analyse the mass of the resonance and its coupling to the D*D system, a dedicated model is developed under the assumption of an isoscalar axial-vector T+cc state decaying to the D*D channel. Using this model, resonance parameters including the pole position, scattering length, effective range and compositeness are determined to reveal important information about the nature of the T+cc state. In addition, an unexpected dependence of the production rate on track multiplicity is observed

KOALA Birth Cohort Study

Het KOALA-onderzoek is een geboortecohort-onderzoek. Daarin worden kinderen gevolgd vanaf de zwangerschap. De ouders hebben gedurende de eerste levensjaren verschillende vragenlijsten ingevuld over ziekten, gezondheid en allerlei factoren die hierop van invloed zijn. Daarnaast worden er metingen gedaan en biologisch materiaal verzameld bij een gedeelte van de deelnemers

Landelijke Prevalentiemeting Zorgkwaliteit

De Landelijke Prevalentiemeting Zorgkwaliteit (LPZ) is een jaarlijks terugkerende onafhankelijke prevalentiemeting van zorgkwaliteit. De meting wordt uitgevoerd in verpleeghuizen, thuiszorg en ziekenhuizen. Door deelname aan de LPZ hebben zorgorganisaties de mogelijkheid om de aanwezigheid, preventie en behandeling van zorgproblemen in kaart te brengen. De zorgproblemen die worden gemeten zijn decubitus, incontinentie, ondervoeding, vallen, middelen en maatregelen rond vrijheid, en pijn. Verpleeghuizen die aan de LPZ deelnemen, kunnen de  indicatoren basisveiligheid die in het Kwaliteitskader verpleeghuiszorg zijn opgenomen, meten via een aparte module van de LPZ

Indonesian Cybercrime Verdicts Collected 2016-2018

The dataset presents a summary of Indonesian cybercrime cases from 123 district court verdicts; 18 high court verdicts; and 16 Supreme Court verdicts. All the verdicts contain at least one indictment from Act 11/2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transaction as amended by Act 19/2016 (EITA). The verdicts were collected from the website of Indonesian Supreme Court website as of 15 June 2016 until 1 February 2018. The dataset is part of my dissertation: Issues of Cross-Border Access to Electronic Evidence: Improving Indonesian Practice in Investigating Cybercrim

Constitutional Court Decisions concerning the Indonesian Criminal Procedure Law (KUHAP) 2006 to 2018

The dataset presents a summary of 51 decisions of the Indonesian Constitutional Court concerning judicial review of the Indonesian Criminal Procedure Law (KUHAP) from 2006 to 2018. It contains the case number; applicants; articles of the KUHAP that the Court reviewed; and the verdicts of the Court and its main consideration. The decisions were collected from the website of the Indonesian Constitutional Court as of 15 June 2016 until 11 March 2018. The dataset is part of my dissertation: Issues of Cross-Border Access to Electronic Evidence: Improving Indonesian Practice in Investigating Cybercrime

Modulation of small intestinal small chain fatty acid profile induced by 2 weeks consumption with 2 fermented milk products; a randomized, exploratory, cross-over, double blind, controlled study in ileostomy patients

Short chain fatty acid profiling of ileostomy samples. 16 volunteers received yogurt, L. rhamnosus or placebo in different orders. Ileostomy samples were collected in the morning after breakfast at the beginning and at the end of the 2 weeks intervention period. The samples were collected for the INSIDE explorative dietary study. The study was aimed to characterize the impact of fermented food may have on the small intestinal environment and systematically
