Axiomatizing Relativistic Dynamics using Formal Thought Experiments
Attila Molnár,Gergely Székely +1 more
TL;DR: This paper presents an axiom system of Special Relativity which is able to express thought experiments formally and explicitly and can provide an explicit definition of relativistic mass based merely on kinematical concepts and thought experiments on collisions.

Ab initio/GIAO-CCSD(T) study of the effects of protonation on borane–ammonia (H3BNH3) and related complexes
TL;DR: In this article, the structure and 11B NMR chemical shifts of neutral borane-ammonia complex H3BNH3 1 and its protonated form H 4 BNH 3 + 2 were calculated using an ab initio method at the MP2/cc-pVTZ and MP2 2/ccpVQZ levels.

Pleiotropy or linkage? Their relative contributions to the genetic correlation of quantitative traits and detection by multi-trait GWA studies
Jobran Chebib,Frédéric Guillaume +1 more
TL;DR: This work investigates the conditions under which pleiotropy and linkage have differential effects on the genetic correlations between traits by explicitly modeling multiple genetic architectures to look at the effects of selection strength, degree of correlational selection, mutation rate, mutational variance, recombination rate, and migration rate.

An evaluation of the impact of progresa on pre-school child height
Jere R. Behrman,John Hoddinott +1 more
TL;DR: One of the major components of the PROGRESA program has been directed toward improving the nutritional status of small children in poor rural communities in Mexico as mentioned in this paper, which has been shown to have a substantial effect on lifetime productivities and earnings of currently small children.

Progressing through progresa: an impact assessment of a school subsidy experiment
TL;DR: The authors used a Markov schooling transition model applied to the experimental data to assess the impact of the educational subsidy program along several dimensions, including effects on initial ages of school entry, dropout rates, grade repetition rates, and school reentry rates.

A New Approach to Social Assistance: Latin America’s Experience with Conditional Cash Transfer Programs
TL;DR: Conditional cash transfer as discussed by the authors is a departure from more traditional approaches to social assistance, that represents an innovative, and increasingly popular channel for the delivery of social services that represents a demand-side complement to the supply of health, and education services.
