Benchmarking Irish Private-Sector Credit
Strong credit growth since the mid-1990s has resulted in a near doubling of Ireland’s private-sector credit to Gross Domestic Product ratio.
The Irish Pound: From Origins to EMU
This article provides a brief overview of the Irish pound’s origins, before looking in more detail at the questioning of the sterling link and events leading up to Ireland joining the EMS.
Faulty Metrics and the Future of Digital Journalism
This report explores the industry of Internet measurement and its impact on news organizations working online. It investigates this landscape through a combination of documentary research and interviews with measurement companies, trade groups, advertising agencies, media scholars, and journalists from national newspapers, regional papers, and online-only news ventures

Residential Mortgages - Borrowing for Investment
Irish household debt has risen sharply in recent years, driven by strong demand for residential mortgages.
Meaningful Ethics Reforms for the New Albany
The corruption scandals of the last few years have profoundly shaken the faith of New Yorkers in their state government. This report examines the system erected by New York's current ethics laws and makes clear recommendations for a way forward
Decoding mode-mixing in black-hole merger ringdown
Optimal extraction of information from gravitational-wave observations of
binary black-hole coalescences requires detailed knowledge of the waveforms.
Current approaches for representing waveform information are based on
spin-weighted spherical harmonic decomposition. Higher-order harmonic modes
carrying a few percent of the total power output near merger can supply
information critical to determining intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of the
binary. One obstacle to constructing a full multi-mode template of merger
waveforms is the apparently complicated behavior of some of these modes;
instead of settling down to a simple quasinormal frequency with decaying
amplitude, some modes show periodic bumps characteristic of
mode-mixing. We analyze the strongest of these modes -- the anomalous
harmonic mode -- measured in a set of binary black-hole merger waveform
simulations, and show that to leading order, they are due to a mismatch between
the spherical harmonic basis used for extraction in 3D numerical relativity
simulations, and the spheroidal harmonics adapted to the perturbation theory of
Kerr black holes. Other causes of mode-mixing arising from gauge ambiguities
and physical properties of the quasinormal ringdown modes are also considered
and found to be small for the waveforms studied here.Comment: 15 pages, 10 figures, 2 tables; new version has improved Figs. 1-3,
