University science parks are alleged to stimulate technological spillovers. However, there is no virtually empirical evidence on the impact of these facilities on research productivity. We begin to fill this gap by examining whether companies located on university science parks in the United Kingdom have higher research productivity than observationally equivalent firms not located on a univers...

Since 1954, when proton beam radiation therapy was first introduced for human treatment, about 55,000 patients have been treated in the United States and around the world. The United States currently has five full-scale operating proton facilities. Future proton centers now in the development stage include: Hampton University in the Tidewater VA area, University of Pennsylvania Medical Center, ...

Governmental facilities for such services as education, health, and transportation are often small, of poor quality, and overcrowded, even when the costs are spread among all taxpayers. We also find that governments may subsidize private facilities providing the same services, or may charge admission fees at public facilities. We explain these phenomena with a model which considers two types of...

CCLRC is a UK civil research laboratory which provides large scale facilities to the international scientific community – mainly university based, although also used by industry. Current and planned CCLRC facilities include particle accelerators/synchrotrons that produce neutrons, muons, x-rays and visible light for non-destructive materials testing using a large range of sensors; the world’s m...

This paper uses census data to describe changes in bicycle commute mode shares between 1990 and 2000 in the Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN area, and specifically the impact of new bicycle facilities that were created during this decade. Previous efforts to understand the impact of facilities on bicycling rates have compared different locations; however, with this method it is not possible to determin...
