On the Similarity and Differences Between Nano-Enhanced Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy and Nano-Enhanced Laser-Induced Plasma Spectroscopy in Laser-Induced Nanomaterials Plasma

The interaction of pulsed lasers with matter involving nanomaterials as a pure target or thin layer deposited on a target initiates transient plasma, which shows strong enhancement in a spectral line emission.This domain of research has been explored via two well-established techniques dubbed NELIBS and NELIPS.These Nano-Enhanced Laser-Induced Brea

A psychological law of inertia and the illusion of loss aversion

The principle of loss aversion is thought to explain a wide range of anomalous phenomena involving tradeoffs between losses and gains.In this article, I show that the anomalies loss aversion was introduced to explain - the risky bet premium, the endowment effect, and the status-quo bias - are Peels characterized not only by a loss/gain tradeoff, bu
