    • Responsibility for Failures of Government: The Problem of Many Hands 

      Thompson, Dennis F. (SAGE Publications, 2014)
      The problem of many hands—the difficulty of assigning responsibility in organizations in which many different individuals contribute to decisions and policies—stands in the way of investigating and correcting the failures ...

    • Restoring Rational Choice: The Challenge of Consumer Financial Regulation 

      Campbell, John Y. (American Economic Association, 2016)
      This lecture considers the case for consumer financial regulation in an environment where many households lack the knowledge to manage their financial affairs effectively. The lecture argues that financial ignorance is ...

      Sinha, M; Jang, Y. C.; Oh, Juhyun; Khong, Danika Mei Po; Wu, Elizabeth Y; Manohar, Rohan; Miller, Christine; Regalado, Samuel G.; Loffredo, F; Pancoast, James R.; Hirshman, Michael F; Lebowitz, Jessica; Shadrach, Jennifer; Cerletti, Massimiliano; Kim, Mi Jeong; Serwold, Thomas Francis; Goodyear, Laurie Joy; Rosner, Bernard Alfred; Lee, Richard Theodore; Wagers, Amy Jo (American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2014)
      Parabiosis experiments indicate that impaired regeneration in aged mice is reversible by exposure to a young circulation, suggesting that young blood contains humoral “rejuvenating” factors that can restore regenerative ...

    • Restricting the weak-generative capacity of synchronous tree-adjoining grammars 

      Shieber, Stuart (Association for Computational Linguistics, 1992)
      The formalism of synchronous tree-adjoining grammars, a variant of standard tree-adjoining grammars (TAG), was intended to allow the use of TAGs for language transduction in addition to language specification. In previous ...

    • Restricting the weak-generative capacity of synchronous tree-adjoining grammars. 

      Shieber, Stuart (Blackwell Publishing, 1994)
      The formalism of synchronous tree-adjoining grammars, a variant of standard tree-adjoining grammars (TAG), was intended to allow the use of TAGs for language transduction in addition to language specification. In previous ...

    • Restriction of intestinal stem cell expansion and the regenerative response by YAP 

      Barry, Evan R.; Morikawa, Teppei; Butler, Brian L.; Shrestha, Kriti; de la Rosa, Rosemarie; Yan, Kelley S.; Fuchs, Charles S.; Magness, Scott T.; Smits, Ron; Ogino, Shuji; Kuo, Calvin J.; Camargo, Fernando D. (2012)
      A remarkable feature of regenerative processes is their ability to halt proliferation once an organ’s structure has been restored. The Wnt signaling pathway is the major driving force for homeostatic self-renewal and ...

    • Restrictions on modeling spin injection by resistor networks 

      Rashba, Emmanuel (IOP Publishing, 2008)
      Because of the technical difficulties of solving spin transport equations in inhomogeneous systems, different resistor networks are widely applied for modeling spin transport. By comparing an analytical solution for spin ...

    • Restructuring the Social Sciences: Reflections from Harvard's Institute for Quantitative Social Science 

      King, Gary (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2013)
      The social sciences are undergoing a dramatic transformation from studying problems to solving them; from making do with a small number of sparse data sets to analyzing increasing quantities of diverse, highly informative ...

    • Rest‐Frame Ultraviolet to Near‐Infrared Observations of an Interacting Lyman Break Galaxy at z = 4.42 

      Younger, Joshua D.; Huang, Jia-Sheng; Fazio, Giovanni G.; Cox, Thomas J.; Lai, Kamson; Hopkins, Philip F.; Hernquist, Lars; Papovich, Casey J.; Simard, Luc; Lin, Lihwai; Cheng, Yi-Wen; Yan, Haojin; Kereš, Dušan; Shapley, Alice E. (American Astronomical Society, 2007)

    • Resultatives and Unaccusatives: A Parametric View 

      Huang, C.-T. James James (The Chinese Linguistic Society of Japan, 2006)
      This paper capitalizes on two peculiar properties of Mandarin Chinese resultative constructions that pose problems for a general theory of argument structure and parametric theory: (a) the widespread existence of unergative ...

    • Results From the 2014 November 15th Multi-chord Stellar Occultation by the Tno (229762) 2007 Uk 126

      We present results derived from the first multi-chord stellar occultation by the trans-Neptunian object (229762) 2007 UK126, observed on 2014 November 15. The event was observed by the Research and Education Collaborative ...

    • Resummation and NLO Matching of Event Shapes with Effective Field Theory 

      Schwartz, Matthew D (American Physical Society, 2008)
      The resummed differential thrust rate in \(e^+e^-\) annihilation is calculated using Soft-Collinear Effective Theory (SCET). The resulting distribution in the two-jet region \((T \sim 1)\) is found to agree with the ...

      Chen, Yang-Ting; Schwartz, Matthew D (Springer Verlag, 2010)
      The heavy jet mass distribution in e\(^+\)e\(^−\) collisions is computed to next-to-next-to-next-to leading logarithmic (N\(^3\)LL) and next-to-next-to leading fixed order accuracy (NNLO). The singular terms predicted from ...

    • Resummation of Jet Mass at Hadron Colliders
