description: Two choline-based deep eutectic solvent namely ethaline and glyceline have been used in different applications such as metal extraction, solubility and in electrochemistry because of its easy availability, inexpensive and non-toxic nature. In this work, molecular dynamics simulation was employed to study the structural and transport properties of ethaline and glyceline when blended with Li+ based salt (lithium bis (trifluoromethane sulphonyl) imide (LiTf2N)) in varying concentrations for the application as electrolytes in lithium-ion batteries. The effect of temperature and concentration on the structural and transport properties was explored to understand the diffusion of Li+ at the atomic level. For both the deep eutectic solvents (DESs), all the H-bond between Cl− ion and hydrogen bond acceptor i.e. ethylene glycol/glycerol decreases due to the formation of a network between Li+ and Cl− upon increasing salt concentration. Li+ ions was found to be in the diffusive regime at a very high temperature ( > 400 K) and low molar concentration (< 0.2). It is interesting to note that, for the same salt concentration, self-diffusion coefficient of Li+ ion in ethaline was observed to be tenfold higher than in the glyceline. Therefore, this study provides a microscopic understanding to synthesise a choline-based electrolyte by addition of Li-salt.

description: We perform the first kinematic analysis of a CME observed by both imaging and in situ instruments on board STEREO, namely the SECCHI, PLASTIC, and IMPACT experiments. Launched on 2008 February 4, the CME is tracked continuously from initiation to 1 AU using the SECCHI imagers on both STEREO spacecraft, and is then detected by the PLASTIC and IMPACT particle and field detectors on board STEREO-B. The CME is also detected in situ by ACE and SOHO/CELIAS at Earth's L1 Lagrangian point. The CME hits STEREO-B, ACE, and SOHO on 2008 February 7, but misses STEREO-A entirely. This event provides a good example of just how different the same event can look when viewed from different perspectives. We also demonstrate many ways in which the comprehensive and continuous coverage of this CME by STEREO improves confidence in our assessment of its kinematic behavior, with potential ramifications for space weather forecasting. The observations provide several lines of evidence in favor of the observable part of the CME being narrow in angular extent, a determination crucial for deciding how best to convert observed CME elongation angles from Sun-center to actual Sun-center distances.

The evolution of branchiostegal rays in teleostome fishes
Creators: name: McAllister, Don Evan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The origin, function and evolution of the branchiostegal rays, the related opercular and gular bones and associated hyoid elements were investigated in teleostome fishes. Alizarin, skeletal or alcoholic specimens of over half the living families (over 240) and all the living orders of teleostome fishes with branchiostegals were examined. Literature provided data for most of line remaining living and fossil families and orders. Several evolutionary trends became apparent; a tendency for number of branchiostegals to decrease, following Williston's Law; increasing separation of mandibular and hyoid arches; and an increase in number and complexity of hyoid elements. In the development of hyoid elements, but not of branchiostegal rays, the ontogenetic sequence paralleled the phylogenetic sequence. Examination of the unusual adult hyoid relationships in the neotenic Schindleria showed it to resemble the larval condition of normal fishes. The condition in the tiny goby, Mistichthys, is similar. The structure of the branchiostegal series and hyoid elements proved valuable in tracing the relationships of fishes. Major findings include: Hiodontidae were found not be be closely related to the Notopteridae; the Notopteridae and osteoglossoid families to be related to the mormyriforms; the Neoscopelidae and Myctophidae to differ from other myctophiforms; the ophidioids to require ordinal separation from the Perciformes and placement near the Gadiformes and Ateleopiformes; the Amblyopsidae to belong in the Percopsiformes; the Anabantoidei and Ophicephaloidei to be closely related suborders of common ancestry deserving placement in the same order; the Beloniformes to differ from most other orders in the loss of the interhyal and upper hypohyal; and the Echeneiformes to differ from most Perciformes in the possession of 8-11 branchiostegals. The number of branchiostegals was found to be influenced by posterior extension of the jaws, small body length, feeding habits, gill membrane attachment and deepsea existence.

description: Plant productivity varies due to environmental heterogeneity, and theory suggests that plant diversity can reduce this variation. While there is strong evidence of diversity effects on temporal variability of productivity, whether this mechanism extends to variability across space remains elusive. Here we determine the relationship between plant diversity and spatial variability of productivity in 83 grasslands, and quantify the effect of experimentally increased spatial heterogeneity in environmental conditions on this relationship. We found that communities with higher plant species richness (alpha and gamma diversity) have lower spatial variability of productivity as reduced abundance of some species can be compensated for by increased abundance of other species. In contrast, high species dissimilarity among local communities (beta diversity) is positively associated with spatial variability of productivity, suggesting that changes in species composition can scale up to affect productivity. Experimentally increased spatial environmental heterogeneity weakens the effect of plant alpha and gamma diversity, and reveals that beta diversity can simultaneously decrease and increase spatial variability of productivity. Our findings unveil the generality of the diversity-stability theory across space, and suggest that reduced local diversity and biotic homogenization can affect the spatial reliability of key ecosystem functions.

description: Mit diesem Beitrag gehen wir der Frage nach, inwiefern das freie Explorieren eine geeignete Methode sein kann, um Aufgaben im inklusiven naturwissenschaftsbezogenen Sachunterricht einen Rahmen zu geben. Eckpunkte bilden dabei die Diskurse um Inklusion bzw. inklusive Sachunterrichtsdidaktik, naturwissenschaftsbezogenes Lernen im Kindesalter und gute (Lern)Aufgaben. Ziel ist es, zentrale Ansprüche zu identifizieren, die sowohl Lehrkräften zur Orientierung bei der Gestaltung inklusiver naturwissenschaftsbezogener Lernaufgaben für den Sachunterricht dienen können, als auch Anforderungen an eine inklusionsorientierte Lehrkräftebildung im Bereich naturwissenschaftsbezogenen Sachunterrichts darzustellen. Dazu werden wir zunächst auf ausgewählte Aspekte der Diskurse zu einer inklusiven Sachunterrichtsdidaktik eingehen und diese mit konzeptionellen Überlegungen zum inklusiven naturwissenschaftsbezogenen Lernen im Sachunterricht verbinden (Kap. 1). Weiterhin werden wir auf Aufgabenparadigmen und die Frage, was gute Aufgaben für den inklusiven (naturwissenschaftsbezogenen) Sachunterricht kennzeichnet, eingehen (Kap. 2). Dem folgend stellen wir bündig die Methode des freien Explorierens vor, um deren inklusionspädagogisches bzw. -didaktisches Potenzial zu verdeutlichen (Kap. 3). Dabei wird die Frage leitend sein, inwiefern eine Orientierung am Ansatz des freien Explorierens für naturwissenschaftsbezogenes Lernen im Sachunterricht sinnvoll ist, um gute inklusive Lernaufgaben zu gestalten. Wir schließen den Beitrag mit einem Fazit und Reflexionen zu spezifischen Anforderungen für die Lehrkräftebildung, die sich aus unseren Auseinandersetzungen ableiten lassen (Kap. 4).

description: Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) has recently emerged as an attractive molecular target for pharmaceutical intervention. Several classes of small-molecular ASK1 inhibitors have been identified. In this article, we analysed the binding of small-molecular inhibitors from different chemotypes with ASK1 using molecular dynamic simulations. The umbrella sampling technique was used to calculate the binding free energy (ΔG) for these compounds with ASK1 ATP-binding pocket. According to the obtained results, umbrella sampling gave correct ranking of the binding affinities for investigated inhibitors relative to their experimental pIC50 values and can be useful for further structure-based design of ASK1 inhibitors to accelerate lead optimisation.

description: Background: Suicide is the second leading cause of death in 15- to 29-year-olds in Germany. Studies have shown that compared to the general population students are more affected by suicidal ideation, as one major indicator of an attempted suicide. This effect is observed all over the world, interestingly, it is also true for physicians. Therefore, we investigated whether medical students are at an even higher risk than their peers to develop suicidal ideation. Methods: N=1,103 medical students at a German university completed a self-reporting survey investigating socio-demographic, potential risk, and protective factors. The Beck’s Depression Inventory (BDI)-II Item 9 “Suicidality“ served as the dependent variable. Results: N=130 students (11.8% of the total sample) reported suicidal ideation within the last two weeks. Stepwise computed logistic regression models including all potential risk factors resulted in 40% explained variance. The most significant independent risk factors were the BDI-score, usage of tranquilizers, feeling lonely, insufficient time for hobbies and prior personal mental health issues, whereas focus enhancing drugs showed to be the only independent protective predictor. The BDI-II score correlated positively with the number of students suffering from suicidal ideation. Conclusion: The prevalence of suicidal ideation in our sample medical student population exceeds that of the general population greatly, confirming existing data and emphasizing the need to raise awareness and establish prevention programs.

description: $D_s$ mesons are investigated in a semi-classic flux tube model where the spin-orbit interaction is taken into account. Spectrum of D-wave $D_s$ is predicted. The predicted spectrum is much lower than most previous predictions. Analysis of some $D_s$ candidates is made. $D_{sJ}(2632)^+$ may be a $1^-$ ($j^P={3\over 2}^-$ or $1^3D_1$) orbitally excited $D_s$ meson. $D_{s1}(2700)^\pm$ is very possible the first radially excited $1^-$ ($j^P={1\over 2}^-$ or $2^3S_1$) $D_s$ meson (the first radial excitation of $D^{\star\pm}_s(2112)^0$). $D^\star_{sJ}(2860)^+$ should be a $3^-$ ($j^P={5\over 2}^-$ or $1^3D_3$) orbitally excited $D_s$ meson, and $D_{sJ}(3040)^+$ is the first radially excited $1^+$ ($j^P={1\over 2}^+$) $D_s$ meson. Our conclusions are consistent with the most lately BaBar experiment.

description: Higher education institutions have implemented various affirmative action policies aimed at increasing the representation of female professors, including measures to reduce gender bias in professorship appointments. This raises the question of whether gender bias still exists. Research on gender bias in assistant professor appointments remains sparse. We therefore examine whether gender bias in assistant professor recruitment exists and differs across disciplines (looking at mathematics/physics, economics/sociology/political science, and German studies). Our analysis is based on a factorial survey experiment with 1857 professors from German universities in 2020. We draw on Crandall and Eshleman's (2003) justification-suppression model to argue that gender policies can help suppress the expression of prejudices (negative stereotypes) against female applicants. Our results show that in all disciplines studied, female applicants receive higher ratings than male applicants, both for perceived qualification for an assistant professorship and for being invited for an interview. The female advantage is more pronounced in mathematics/physics when applicants are perceived to be equally qualified, suggesting a greater normative pressure to comply with gender-based preferential selection. In mathematics/physics, however, we also find a smaller premium for having received a research grant among female applicants. Overall, the observed female advantage is rather small in all disciplines studied.

description: Background: Sleep disturbances are common in nursing home residents and challenging for their nurses. Knowledge about sleep and sleep promoting factors is essential to provide adequate sleep management, where nurses play a key role. Therefore, nurses’ knowledge and attitudes towards sleep and sleep promoting interventions is important as enabling or inhibiting factor for successful sleep management. Methods: A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted among nurses working wholly or partially at night in nursing homes in Germany. Data were collected between February and April 2021 via online or paper and pencil questionnaires, comprising 56 items. Nursing homes were recruited through existing cooperation with the study centers as well as via nursing home registers. Results: Finally, 138 nursing homes participated and 271 nurses completed the survey. Nurses agreed that sleep disturbances are an important topic with important impact on resident’ health. Although, the assessment of sleep was seen as nurses’ responsibility, only 40 nurses (14.7%) stated that residents’ sleep was always documented. Only 21.7% reported the availability of policy documents providing guidance regarding the management of sleep disturbances. The vast majority (93.2%) reported never having received training about sleep and management of sleep disturbances after their basic nursing training. Conclusions: Our results indicate that nurses working at night can play an important role in residents’ sleep promotion. The findings indicate nurses’ educational needs regarding sleep and sleep promotion. Nursing homes should implement institutional guidelines in order to promote residents’ sleep based on adequate evidence-based non-pharmacological interventions.

description: The elementary processes of friction in contact processes of two solid bodies occur on the nanoscale and are difficult to study experimentally. Therefore, molecular dynamics simulations are often used for their elucidation. In these studies, usually, only a single simulation is carried out for each scenario and the resulting observables are evaluated. In the present work, the reliability and reproducibility of measured observables from such nanoscopic contact process simulations are assessed by means of their statistical uncertainties. Therefore, the computer experiment is carried out not only once, but it is repeated eight times, with individual runs that only differ in the initial thermal motion. This set of replicas enables an assessment of observations for distinguishing reproducible physical phenomena from stochastic coincidence. In this way, a dry and a lubricated nanoscale scratching process were studied, in which a cylindrical indenter carried out two sequential movements: it first penetrates a substrate vertically and then scratches laterally, which causes elastic and plastic deformation of the substrate. In the lubricated case, the indenter was fully immersed in the fluid. Substrate, indenter, and fluid were described by suitably parametrised Lennard–Jones potentials. Various mechanical and thermodynamic process properties were monitored in all simulation runs. The results are compared and evaluated statistically.

description: In this paper we construct a third order method for solving additively split autonomous stiff systems of ordinary differential equations. The constructed additive method is L-stable with respect to the implicit part and allows to use an arbitrary approximation of the Jacobian matrix. Automatic stepsize selection based on local error and stability control are performed. The estimations for error and stability control have been obtained without significant additional computational costs. Numerical experiments show reliability and efficiency of the implemented integration algorithm.

Aspects of temperature adaptation in Peromyscus
Creators: name: Hayward, John Stanley
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Six races of Peromyscus, from a variety of habitats, have been studied with respect to factors involved in adaptation to environmental temperature. The central theme of the study was to assess the extent to which metabolic rate is involved in the processes of distribution and speciation in this genus. A unique, electrolytic respirometer for the accurate measurement of oxygen consumption was constructed and reported in the literature. With this apparatus, the metabolic rate characteristics of the six races were measured over the temperature range 0° to 35°C. After acclimation to standardized laboratory conditions, critical temperatures and metabolic responses to temperatures below thermoneutrality were primarily related to body size. They show, therefore, no evidence of racial metabolic rate adaptation or significant insulative differences. Body weight per se is not correlated with the climate of the respective habitats. A single equation which predicts the metabolic rate of these races at any temperature between 0° and 27°C, from a knowledge of body weight and body temperature, is derived. When considered as a single group, the basal oxygen consumption of all races varied with body weight 0.69 and was insignificantly different from the accepted interspeciesapproximation. The basal metabolic rates of each race showed no temperature-adaptive differences, especially when considered in relation to body composition. The body composition in terms of water, fat and protein was determined for all individuals. The importance of considering body composition, especially fatness, in comparative studies of metabolic rate is emphasized. It is concluded that metabolic rate is inadaptive to climate in these races of Peromyscus and consequently has played no important role in their distribution and speciation. It is shown that the major temperature-adaptive feature of these small mammals is the use of a suitable microclimate. Measurements of the ambient temperatures prevailing in the microhabitats of the six races during winter and summer are presented. These data indicate that there is no significant differential selective pressure for temperature adaptation among the six races, and are complementary to the finding that metabolic rate is inadaptive to gross climate in Peromyscus.

description: Liebe Kolleginnen, liebe Kollegen, liebe am Sachunterricht Interessierte und in den Sachunterricht Involvierte, wahrscheinlich kennen Sie die Situation, dass man nach einer Tagung, einer Prüfung oder dem Ende des Unterrichtstages in einer kleinen Runde beisammensitzt und sich ein eher heiteres Gespräch entwickelt bei dem manche Fachinhalte selbstironisch oder überspitzt vorgetragen werden und alle sich gut amüsieren. Vielleicht kennen Sie auch die Situation, dass ein solch lustiges Gespräch auf einmal kippt, weil die scherzhafte Feststellung plötzlich zur ernsthaften Frage wird. Aus einer solchen Situation ist eine neue Rubrik bei www.widerstreit-sachunterricht.de entstanden - mit Fragen, die zunächst banal erscheinen, die wir als Expertinnen und Experten eigentlich beantworten können müssten, aber die bei genauerer Betrachtung einige Probleme aufwerfen. Wir haben uns daher entschieden, jeweils eine Frage pro Ausgabe über die Fachverteiler zu verbreiten und hoffen auf Ihre Antworten und Lösungen – seien sie kurz oder lang, aus dem schulischen Alltag oder der universitären Forschung –, um diese auf den Seiten von www.widerstreit-sachunterricht.de jeweils zu dokumentieren. Die erste Frage, fokussiert die Kriterien, die für eine Bewertung von Sachunterricht in der Schule herangezogen werden können. Für die Fächer Deutsch oder Mathe lässt sich zumindest sagen, dass etwas schief gegangen ist, wenn Kinder nicht lesen und schreiben oder rechnen können. Aber wann ist im Sachunterricht etwas schief gegangen? Wenn Kinder den Igel nicht kennen? Wenn sie nicht wissen, dass der Igel ein Winterschläfer ist? Wenn sie nicht wissen, dass der Igel ein Säugetier ist? Wenn sie die Gefahren des Straßenverkehrs nicht im Zusammenhang mit dem Igel denken können? Wenn sie die Konsequenzen baulicher Gestaltung in Großstädten für die Tiere (und Menschen) nicht sehen? Haben solche ja durchaus bereits als Anforderungen formulierten Fragen tatsächlich einen Aussagegehalt für das im Sachunterricht zu fordernde Lernen?Die erste Frage, die in dieser Rubrik gestellt wird, lautet daher: Was bedeutet es, im Sachunterricht eine 5 im Zeugnis zu bekommen? Mit besten Grüßen und Wünschen für das neue Jahr, Detlef Pech

Smooth and rough modules over self-induced algebras

description: A non-unital algebra in a closed monoidal category is called self-induced if the multiplication induces an isomorphism between A\otimes_A A and A. For such an algebra, we define smoothening and roughening functors that retract the category of modules onto two equivalent subcategories of smooth and rough modules, respectively. These functors generalise previous constructions for group representations on bornological vector spaces. We also study the pairs of adjoint functors between categories of smooth and rough modules that are induced by bimodules and Morita equivalence.

description: Das Buch mit seinen zehn Beiträgen ist aus einer Studientagung und aus einer Ringvorlesung an der Universität Frankfurt a.M. hervorgegangen. Dabei geht es nicht um die Sprache und die Sachen im Unterricht selbst, wie der Titel vermuten lässt, sondern um die Frage, welche Sprache über die Sachen des Sachunterrichts angemessen erscheint und wie sich das wechselseitige Erschließungsverhältnis von Sprache und Sache generell bestimmen lässt. Diese Problematik betrifft aber nicht allein den Sachunterricht in der Grundschule, sondern in vergleichbarer Weise auch die Sachfächer der Sekundarstufe, die ihre Namen von Wissenschaftsdisziplinen ableiten. Walter Köhnlein kommentiert in diesem Text die unterschiedlichen Beiträge des Buches.

description: Ein Kommentar zu Klafkis (vgl. Klafki 1992) Vortrag über „Allgemeinbildung in der Grundschule und der Bildungsauftrag des Sachunterrichts“, der auf der Gründungstagung der GDSU in Berlin gehalten wurde, braucht einen Bezug aus dem Bedeutungsfeld von Bildung. Ich knüpfe an den Artikel zum Stichwort der Bildung im Fischer-Lexikon zur Pädagogik (Groothoff 1964) an.
Inverse pressure estimates and the independence of stable dimension for non-invertible maps

description: We use the inverse pressure concept to estimate the stable dimension for hyperbolic non-invertible maps which are conformal in the stable fibers. The non-invertible case is different than the diffeomorphism case. In particular we show that if the map is open on the respective basic set, then the stable dimension is constant everywhere. We prove also in this setting the Lipschitz continuity of the stable distribution.

description: Die Überlegungen und Forderungen Klafkis zum Bildungsauftrag und zu den Aufgaben- und Orientierungsdimensionen für einen zeitgemäßen Sach- und Sozialunterricht stellen auch angesichts neuerer sachunterrichtsdidaktischer Entwicklungen eine große Herausforderung dar. Seit Klafkis Vortrag auf der Gründungsveranstaltung der Gesellschaft für Didaktik des Sachunterrichts (GDSU) sind 13 Jahre vergangen. Die Aktualität seines Konzeptes soll im Lichte der Entwicklungen in der Sachunterrichtsdidaktik der letzten Jahre entfaltet werden, indem danach gefragt wird, inwiefern die didaktischen Innovationen in Klafkis Richtung weisen, welche Bedeutung Klafkis Ansatz angesichts aktueller konzeptioneller Probleme zukommt, und inwiefern sich Klafkis Aufgaben- und Orientierungsdimensionen für einen zeitgemäßen Sach- und Sozialunterricht weiterdenken und mit anderen didaktischen Innovationen fruchtbar verbinden lassen.

description: Controlled release of corticosteroids may lead to higher bioavailability of the drugs and a dosage control. Here, we investigate the suitability of the framework MIL-101 (Cr) as a drug carrier for a controlled release of five corticosteroids with different therapeutic potencies, namely Desoximethasone and Clobetasol Propionate (strong), Methylprednisolone and Triamcinolone Acetonide (medium), Hydrocortisone Valerate (weak). First, we employ Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations and calculate the storage capacity of the host to be around 1000 mg drug/g MIL-101 (Cr). Then, Canonical MC simulations are performed, which cover different drug loading amounts from high (400 mg/g) to low (50 mg/g). Results suggest a multi-step drug release trend controlled by the interplay between drug–drug and drug-framework interactions at the atomistic level. Then, all-atom molecular dynamics simulations for 50 mg/g loading are used to monitor the evolution of the interactions between the drug molecules and the framework. All results indicate that MIL-101 (Cr) is a highly promising corticosteroid carrier that may also prevent unintentional misuse by patients.

Dauerzitation ohne Konsequenz. Oder: Sachunterricht ist Politische Bildung.: Eine (essayistische) Annäherung an Wolfgang Klafkis Allgemeinbildungsbegriff im Sachunterrichtsdiskurs auf der Höhe der Zeit

description: Klafkis Entwurf einer „zeitgemäßen Allgemeinbildung“, die den Ausgangspunkt des in Rede stehenden Textes (Klafki 1992) bildet, wurde in den 80er Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts publiziert. Dies ist ihr ohne Zweifel anzumerken. Sie ist ‚veraltet‘, nicht mehr auf der Höhe der Zeit – zum Glück. Eben dies macht sie für alle Menschen, die heute über Bildung nachdenken, unverzichtbar.

Klafki – macht Sinn

description: Als Wolfgang Klafki 1992 den Eröffnungsvortrag zur Gründungsversammlung der GDSU hielt, war der Grundstein für eine Positionsbestimmung des Sachunterrichts gelegt, an dem sich dieses Universitäts- und Schulfach messen lassen muss. Die Perspektive, unter der Sachunterricht gelehrt und gelernt werden sollte, heißt Bildung. Sachunterricht kann danach dazu beitragen, dass Menschen ihr Potential als Subjekte und als gesellschaftlich Handelnde unter einem demokratischen Wertehorizont entwickeln können.1 Ein solcher Ansatz wird in aktuellen Kontexten, die nach Standardisierung und Messbarkeit von Kompetenzen fragen, zu einem „traditionellen Ballast“, wenn nicht gar unter Ideologieverdacht gestellt (vgl. Bundesministerium 2003, S. 62). Umgekehrt macht die Sache Sinn: Die Bildungsstandarddiskussion darf ruhig daran erinnert werden, was es mit ihrer „Vorsilbe“ auf sich hat und eine Reflexion darüber kritisch an sich selbst richten.Dieser Gedankengang ist der eine Ansatzpunkt für meine Auseinandersetzung mit Klafkis Aufsatz „Allgemeinbildung in der Grundschule und der Bildungsauftrag des Sachunterrichts“. Der andere sind meine Erfahrungen mit Klafki als Seminarlektüre (im Kontext anderer Aufsätze zu Bildungsverständnissen) in Veranstaltungen im Sachunterricht, mit – soweit das möglich ist – beobachtbaren Bildungsprozessen bei künftigen Lehrkräften. Ich werde beide Gedankenstränge verbinden.

description: Von Erwachsenen werden Kinder oft für zu jung für das Verstehen komplexer ökonomischer Zusammenhänge gehalten, von der Werbung als Zielgruppe aber durchaus als lukrative Adressatengruppe ernst genommen. Wenn die Grundschule ihrem Bildungsanspruch gerecht werden will, müssen ökonomische Inhalte sowohl in der Schule als auch in der Lehrerbildung intensiv thematisiert werden. Wie und in welcher Form es gelingen könnte, sie bereits in der Grundschule zu verankern, soll hier diskutiert werden.

Subjects: subject: Applications (stat.AP)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: The usual nonparametric approach to spectral analysis is revisited within the regularization framework. Both usual and windowed periodograms are obtained as the squared modulus of the minimizer of regularized least squares criteria. Then, particular attention is paid to their interpretation within the Bayesian statistical framework. Finally, the question of unsupervised hyperparameter and window selection is addressed. It is shown that maximum likelihood solution is both formally achievable and practically useful.

description: Mobile payment has become increasingly popular due to the widespread use of smartphones and their applications. However, its adoption in African countries has been limited, despite its potential to simplify our lives. This study aims to enhance our understanding of the factors that affect the acceptance of mobile payment in Nigeria. To achieve this, the paper explores the impact of "network externalities" in addition to traditional technology acceptance factors. The study hypothesizes that the key drivers of mobile payment acceptance are performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, trust, and network externality. The research findings suggest that while traditional drivers still play a role in customers' willingness to adopt mobile payment, network externalities have the strongest impact. Although the results did not support the influence of effort expectancy, the paper provides recommendations for future research.
