Patients' free choice of physicians is not always good.

We present a model of learning in healthcare markets. Hospitals have junior physicians with low and senior physicians with high ability. Junior physicians turn senior if they treat enough patients.

Monitoring institutions in healthcare markets: Experimental evidence.

This paper investigates the impact of monitoring institutions on market outcomes in health care. Healthcare markets are characterized by asymmetric information. Physicians have an information advantage over patients with respect to appropriate treatments, which they may exploit through over- or under-provision or by overcharging.

Polarizable Transferable Anisotropic United-Atom Force Field Based on the Mie Potential for Phase Equilibria: Ethers, n-Alkanes, and Nitrogen.

This study proposes a Polarizable Transferable Anisotropic Mie (P-TAMie) force field for ethers and mixtures of ethers with n-alkanes and nitrogen. In our approach, polarizability is accounted for using a charge-on-spring model (also referred to as the Drude model or core-shell model) placed on every united-atom site. Parameters for polarizabilities are obtained from ab initio calculations, without the need to introduce empirical scaling factors.

A Modified Shifted Force Approach to the Wolf Summation.

The Wolf method for calculation of electrostatic interactions in molecular simulations is known to describe the energy well, whereas the forces have discontinuities. For a more reliable description of the forces this method can be extended with a shifted force approach. This leads to a good description of the forces and precise molecular dynamics simulation, but the description of the energy becomes poorer.
