This paper develops a general equilibrium exchange rate model consistent with the weak empirical evidence supporting the law of one price. Some firms segment markets by country, and set prices in local currency of sale, a practice we refer to as pricing-to-market (PTM). The presence of PTM increases exchange rate volatility, relative to a situation where the law of one price holds. PTM also aff...

Two recent measurements of beauty production in deep inelastic ep scattering with the ZEUS detector are presented. In the first analysis, beauty production was identified using muons associated to a jet. In the second measurement, beauty content was extracted using the decay length significance and invariant mass of secondary vertices. Measured differential cross sections were compared to theor...

Neuroaesthetics has been searching for the neural bases of the subjective experience of beauty. It has been demonstrated that neural activities in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and the left primary motor cortex (lPMC) correlate with the subjective experience of beauty. Although beauty and ugliness seem to be semantically and conceptually opposite, it is still unknown whether these two eva...

The nature of beauty has been debated in philosophy for thousands of years.

This notion was inherited from Antiquity and was modified during the Middle Ages, when much more attention was paid to the fate of the soul, and further modified d...

A growing literature claims beautiful workers receive higher wages. Using five nationallevel surveys, we find that in multivariate regression models there is no beauty premium. Most beauty coefficients are statistically insignificant, even in replications of published work. Simple model alterations, such as clustering on the primary sampling unit or redefining other covariates, eliminate much o...
