description: Der Beitrag widmet sich der Frage, inwieweit Aspekte der professionellen Kompetenz von Lehrkräften von Bedeutung für einen diversitätssensiblen Unterricht sind. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf Einstellungen und motivationaler Orientierung von Lehrkräften und untersucht die Bedeutsamkeit für einen differenziellen Unterricht im Kontext kulturell-ethnischer Diversität. Daten von N = 250 Lehrkräften wurden anhand von Strukturgleichungsmodellen analysiert sowie geschlechtsspezifische Unterschiede anhand von Mehrgruppenstrukturgleichungsmodellen geprüft. Die Ergebnisse weisen darauf hin, dass Einstellungen und motivationale Orientierung von substanzieller Relevanz für eine diversitätssensible Unterrichtsgestaltung sind. Eine Prüfung geschlechtsspezifischer Differenzen für die gefundenen Zusammenhangsmuster zeigen nur geringe Unterschiede. Die Ergebnisse heben die Bedeutung der professionellen Kompetenz von Lehrkräften für diversitätssensiblen Unterricht hervor und werden hinsichtlich ihrer Implikation für Forschung und Praxis diskutiert.
description: The present paper deals with the question to what extent aspects of the professional competence of teachers are important for diversity-sensitive teaching. It focuses on teachers’ attitudes and motivational orientation toward cultural-ethnic diversity and their impact on individualized differential teaching. Data of N = 250 teachers are examined using structural equation models and gender-specific differences are examined using multi-group structural equation models. The results indicate that attitudes and motivational orientations of teachers are important for diversity-sensitive teaching. An examination of gender-specific differences for the correlation patterns found showed only minor differences. The results highlight the importance of professional competence of teachers for diversity-sensitive teaching and are discussed with regard to their implications for research and practice.

description: Sawmills are experiencing a turbulent environment in which customers’ expectations and global competition set the landscape for the sawmill industry. Increasing competition and complexity, as well as the general technological development in the business environment, have enhanced the importance of quality with regards to both products and services. Hence it is important for sawmills to be able to offer a high quality of its products and services to its customers. The purpose of this paper is to identify the currently existing quality assurance practices in the Swedish sawmill industry. This study is conducted as an interview study, in which five sawmill representatives were interviewed with regards to, for instance, their quality assurance process and quality measurements. The study concludes that the individual sawmills work to either an ISO-9000 or strength grading certificate and hence they adhere to certified procedures and routines. This research, however, does not register actions taken in every-day business, and hence additional studies would need to be conducted with an in-depth case study approach in order to identify the actual behavior at each sawmill. The studies identify factors limiting sawmills in their work to meet customers’ requirements; however, customers asking for additional requirements are often denied delivery of products. This study aims at laying a foundation regarding sawmills’ quality assurance practices and thus covers an unexplored area within sawmill research.

description: Illegal logging has become a global issue because of its effects on biodiversity and climate change. In order to reduce illegal logging, many countries around the world have introduced regulations of international trade of forest products. This paper examines the effects of efforts aimed at reducing illegal logging on the comparative advantage of seven types of forest products by using the HOV model. The results show that measures against illegal logging have affected the comparative advantage of international trade in different directions. The number of regulations a country enforced to combat illegal logging has negative effects on its net export of charcoal and wood residues, but has positive effects on the net export of other forest products. The effects are statistically significant for all types of forest products except paper and wood pulp.

subject: factor analysis

description: In general, the sawmill industry perceives softwood lumber to be a commodity product and its individual actors’ traditional focus is on cost reduction. However, instead of focusing on cost reduction, focus ought to be drawn towards sawmills’ total offers in which service is particularly stressed. Therefore, knowledge of the individual logistics service requirements and their internal grouping is of vital importance in order to be able to handle groups rather than individual requirements, thereby keeping costs low. About 20 % of the produced softwood lumber is used for pallets and pallet collars. Producers of pallets and pallet collars thereby constitute important customers to the sawmill industry. Despite this, studies regarding the producers of pallets and pallet collars’ logistics service requirements are lacking. Hence the purpose of this paper is to identify and categorize logistics service requirements in the pallet and pallet collar industry. This paper identifies and categorizes the logistics service requirements demanded by sawmills; by learning which those individual requirements are, then knowing how they could be categorized is essential for the sawmills’ business development. This study commences with an interview study aimed at identifying individual logistics service requirements. Thereafter a survey study is conducted in order to be able to categorize the individual logistics service requirements. The study concludes that logistic service requirements, such as delivery precision and goods wrapped in plastic, are important logistic service requirements; there appears to be a standardized set of logistic service requirements required by this category of customer. As this research is constituted by an interview study as well as by a questionnaire study, it is not possible to identify the actual actions with regards to real trade-offs, made by the actors, which are made in business. Therefore additional studies need to be conducted with an in-depth case study approach.

description: Previous studies on wooden furniture have examined the effect of tangible and intangible product attributes and the role of forest certification on the consumer’s furniture choice. However, in the comparative European context there is a research gap in studying furniture consumption from the viewpoint of young consumers. This paper examines young consumers’ experiences of wooden furniture in Germany and Finland. Qualitative data was gathered in 2013 with ethnographic field work and 22 guided interviews conducted among consumers between 23-34 years of age. The data was content analysed using thematisation. Based on the results appearance, price and quality are found to be three main attributes in both countries, followed by functionality and ecological aspects. From the marketing point of view, (domestic) country of origin was emphasized as an essential attribute among young Finnish consumers, whereas for German consumers domestic origin did not play a role. However, in both countries, the use of tropical wood species was criticized. Although the immediate furniture choices of young consumers may be dictated by budgetary reason and target towards lowend mass-produced market, these individuals may have high respect for handicraft skills associated with traditional wooden furniture and the value of embedded national heritage. In addition, our interviewees expressed a degree of cynicism towards current eco-labels in use, suggesting a need to deepen their information content and accountability in terms of communicating product sustainability. Further research is called for to analyze, among other things, the symbolic value of Ikea for the young generation European consumers.

description: Many existing or proposed intensity-frontier search experiments look for decay signatures of light long-lived particles (LLPs), highly displaced from the interaction point, in a distant detector that is well-shielded from SM background. This approach is, however, limited to new particles with decay lengths similar to or larger than the baseline of those experiments. In this study, we discuss how this basic constraint can be overcome in BSM models that go beyond the simplest scenarios. If more than one light new particle is present in the model, an additional secondary production of LLPs may take place right in front of the detector, opening this way a new lifetime regime to be probed. We illustrate the prospects of such searches in the future experiments FASER, MATHUSLA and SHiP, for representative models, emphasizing possible connections to dark matter or an anomalous magnetic moment of muon. We also analyze additional advantages from employing dedicated neutrino detectors placed in front of the main decay volume.

description: We investigate the spatial, kinematic and chemical properties of globular cluster systems formed in merging and interacting galaxies using N-body/SPH simulations. Although we can not resolve individual clusters in our simulation, we assume that they form in collapsing molecular clouds when the local external gas pressure exceeds 10$^5$ $k_B$ (where $k_B$ is the Boltzmann constant). Several simulations are carried out for a range of initial conditions and galaxy mass ratios. The input model spirals are given a halo globular cluster system similar to those observed for the Milky Way and M31. Gravitational tidal effects during galaxy merging and interaction leads to a dramatic increase in gas pressure, which exceeds our threshold and hence triggers new globular cluster formation. We investigate the properties of the globular cluster system in the remnant galaxy, such as number density, specific frequency, kinematic properties and metallicity distribution. Different orbital conditions and mass ratios give rise to a range in globular cluster properties, particularly for the interaction models. Our key results are the following: The newly formed metal-rich clusters are concentrated at the centre of the merger remnant elliptical, whereas the metal-poor ones are distributed to the outer parts due to strong angular momentum transfer.

description: In this article we investigate how the drag coefficient $A$ and $\hat{q}$, the transverse momentum transfer by unit length, of charm quarks are modified if the QGP is not in complete thermal equilibrium using the dynamical quasi-particle model (DQPM) which reproduces both, the equation-of-state of the QGP and the spatial diffusion coefficient of heavy quarks as predicted by lattice QCD calculations. We study three cases: a) the QGP has an anisotropic momentum distribution of the partons which leads to an anisotropic pressure b) the QGP partons have higher or lower kinetic energies as compared to the thermal expectation value, and c) the QGP partons have larger or smaller pole masses of their spectral function as compared to the pole mass from the DQPM at the QGP temperature. In the last two cases we adjust the number density of partons to obtain the same energy density as in an equilibrated QGP. In the first scenario we find that if the transverse pressure exceeds the longitudinal one for small heavy quark momenta $A$ becomes larger and $\hat{q}$ smaller as compared to an isotropic pressure. For heavy quarks with large momentum both, $A$ and $\hat{q}$ , approach unity. If the partons have less kinetic energy or a smaller pole mass as compared to a system in equilibrium charm quarks lose more energy. In the former case $\hat{q}$ decreases whereas in the latter case it increases for charm quark with a low or intermediate transverse momentum. Thus each non-equilibrium scenario affects $A$ and $\hat{q}$ of charm quarks in a different way. The modifications in our scenarios are of the order 20-50\% at temperatures relevant for heavy ion reactions. These modifications have to be considered if one wants to determine these coefficients by comparing heavy ion data with theoretical predictions from viscous hydrodynamics or Langevin equations.

We employ the stochastic estimator technique and spectral methods to deal with the disconnected piece of the flavour singlet correlation function. We demonstrate that very early plateau formation in the local eta' mass can be achieved by first ground state projecting the connected piece of its correlator.

description: Accreting neutron stars are one of the main targets for continuous gravitational wave searches, as asymmetric accretion may lead to quadrupolar deformations, or `mountains', on the crust of the star, which source gravitational wave emission at twice the rotation frequency. The gravitational wave torque may also impact on the spin evolution of the star, possibly dictating the currently observed spin periods of neutron stars in Low Mass X-ray Binaries and leading to the increased spindown rate observed during accretion in PSR J1023+0038. Previous studies have shown that deformed reaction layers in the crust of the neutron star lead to thermal and compositional gradients that can lead to gravitational wave emission. However, there are no realistic constraints on the level of asymmetry that is expected. In this paper we consider a natural source of asymmetry, namely the magnetic field, and calculate the density and pressure perturbations that are expected in the crust of accreting neutron stars. In general we find that only the outermost reaction layers of the neutron star are strongly perturbed. The mass quadrupole that we estimate is generally small and cannot explain the increase of spin-down rate of PSR J1023+0038. However, if strong shallow heating sources are present at low densities in the crust, as cooling observations suggest, these layers will be strongly perturbed and the resulting quadrupole could explain the observed spindown of PSR J1023+0038, and lead to observable gravitational wave signals from systems with higher accretion rates.

description: Super spirals are the most massive star-forming disk galaxies in the universe (Ogle et al. 2016, 2019). We measured rotation curves for 23 massive spirals and find a wide range of fast rotation speeds (240-570 km/s), indicating enclosed dynamical masses of 0.6 - 4E12 Msun. Super spirals with mass in stars log Mstars / Msun > 11.5 break from the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation (BTFR) established for lower mass galaxies. The BTFR power-law index breaks from 3.75 +/- 0.11 to 0.25 +/- 0.41 above a rotation speed of 340 km/s. Super spirals also have very high specific angular momenta that break from the Fall (1983) relation. These results indicate that super spirals are under-massive for their dark matter halos, limited to a mass in stars of log Mstars / Msun < 11.8. Most giant elliptical galaxies also obey this fundamental limit, which corresponds to a critical dark halo mass of log Mhalo / Msun = 12.7. Once a halo reaches this mass, its gas can no longer cool and collapse in a dynamical time. Super spirals survive today in halos as massive as log Mhalo / Msun = 13.6, continuing to form stars from the cold baryons they captured before their halos reached critical mass. The observed high-mass break in the BTFR is inconsistent with the Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) theory (Bekenstein and Milgrom 1984).

description: Media coverage shapes public acceptance of renewable energy, but how offshore wind is being communicated to the public, particularly in the United States, is understudied. This study investigates the framing approaches of media coverage of the first two large-scale offshore wind projects in the U.S. We find that most coverage is local, with media coverage increasing during debates around permitting, construction, and community impacts. Emphasis framing focused on economic, political, and environmental dimensions of offshore wind, but the framing differs significantly between the cases. Benefit frames focused on job creation, climate mitigation, and political leadership and collaboration. Risk frames focused on political conflict and lack of transparency, impacts on wildlife, and economic impacts on the fishing industry. These findings help contextualize the debates around offshore wind in the U.S., elucidating what dimensions are made most salient to the public and how project characteristics may drive media coverage.

The range of features includes a better handling of expression templates for general performance improvements, as well as implementations of symbolically derived expressions for calculating derivatives of certain core operations. The software design allows an AD-O tool to provide specializations to automatically include symbolic operations and thereby keep the look and feel of plain AD by overloading. As a showcase, dco/c++ is provided with such a module and its significant performance improvements are validated by benchmarks.

description: In this paper, we perform a global analysis of $B \to PP$ and $PV$ decays with the QCD factorization approach. It is encouraging to observe that the predictions of QCD factorization are in good agreement with experiment. The best fit $γ$ is around $79^\circ$. The penguin-to-tree ratio $|P_{ππ}/T_{ππ}|$ of $π^+ π^-$ decays is preferred to be larger than 0.3. We also show the confidence levels for some interesting channels: $B^0 \to π^0 π^0$, $K^+ K^-$ and $B^+ \to ωπ^+$, $ωK^+$. For $B \to πK^\ast$ decays, they are expected to have smaller branching ratios with more precise measurements.

description: The Earth’s atmosphere constitutes a complex system subject to a large number of forcings of both natural and anthropogenic origin; these influence its evolution on a range of timescales. This thesis makes use of the UMUKCA global chemistry-climate model to explore several aspects relating to the atmospheric response to the 11-year solar cycle forcing and future stratospheric ozone recovery. Firstly, following recent improvements in the model, the atmospheric response to the solar cycle forcing simulated in UMUKCA is discussed. It is shown that while some features show a broad resemblance to observations/reanalysis, there are clear differences with regard to other features; the latter could result from model deficiencies and/or uncertainties in the observed response. The role of analysis method and of interannual variability is also addressed. Secondly, the solar cycle response is separated into the individual contributions from direct radiative heating and from ozone production using a set of sensitivity experiments. It is shown that while the tropical yearly mean responses to the two components are generally linearly additive, this is not necessarily the case in the high latitudes. It is suggested that solar-induced ozone changes could be important for modulating the Southern Hemisphere dynamical response. Thirdly, the role of the representation of the solar ozone response is studied. It is shown that the choice of the solar ozone response prescribed in the radiation scheme in non-interactive ozone experiments has a substantial impact on the simulated temperature response to the solar cycle forcing. The Northern Hemisphere dynamical responses are found to be generally similar within the uncertainty. A comparison with an interactive ozone case is also discussed. Lastly, future ozone recovery is investigated using a seven-member ensemble of 1960- 2099/1980-2080 integrations. The long-term evolution of ozone in different regions is found to be generally consistent with previous modelling studies. The long-term trends and variability in springtime Arctic ozone and its chemical, radiative and dynamical drivers are assessed. It is shown that Arctic ozone increases in the future, consistent with future reduction in stratospheric chlorine, stratospheric cooling and strengthening large-scale circulation. Yet, the large interannual variability is found to continue and to facilitate episodic ozone reductions, with halogen chemistry becoming a smaller but non-negligible driver of future springtime Arctic ozone variability for many decades.

description: We consider the optimal paths in a $d$-dimensional lattice, where the bonds have isotropically correlated random weights. These paths can be interpreted as the ground state configuration of a simplified polymer model in a random potential. We study how the universal scaling exponents, the roughness and the energy fluctuation exponent, depend on the strength of the disorder correlations. Our numerical results using Dijkstra's algorithm to determine the optimal path in directed as well as undirected lattices indicate that the correlations become relevant if they decay with distance slower than 1/r in d=2 and 3. We show that the exponent relation 2nu-omega=1 holds at least in d=2 even in case of correlations. Both in two and three dimensions, overhangs turn out to be irrelevant even in the presence of strong disorder correlations.

description: Cir X-1 is one of the most intriguing galactic X-ray sources. It is a ~16.6 days variable X/radio source, a type-I X-ray burster and a QPO emitter. In spite of an uncertain optical counterpart classification, all these properties identify the source as an LMXB. The morphology of the surrounding radio nebula has suggested an association with the nearby (~25 arcmin) SNR G321.9-0.3, implying that Cir X-1 is a runaway binary originated from the supernova explosion 10^5 years ago. To investigate this hypothesis, we carried out a proper motion measurement of the Cir X-1 m ~19 optical counterpart using a set of HST/WFC and WFPC2 observations taken ~8.6 years apart. We obtained a 3 sigma upper limit of ~5 mas/yr on the source proper motion. Since the runaway hypothesis would have implied a proper motion due North ranging between 15 and 75 mas/yr, depending on the actual age of the SNR, our result definitively rules out the association between Cir X-1 and SNR G321.9-0.3.

Improving ADMMs for Solving Doubly Nonnegative Programs through Dual Factorization

description: Alternating direction methods of multipliers (ADMMs) are popular approaches to handle large scale semidefinite programs that gained attention during the past decade. In this paper, we focus on solving doubly nonnegative programs (DNN), which are semidefinite programs where the elements of the matrix variable are constrained to be nonnegative. Starting from two algorithms already proposed in the literature on conic programming, we introduce two new ADMMs by employing a factorization of the dual variable. It is well known that first order methods are not suitable to compute high precision optimal solutions, however an optimal solution of moderate precision often suffices to get high quality lower bounds on the primal optimal objective function value. We present methods to obtain such bounds by either perturbing the dual objective function value or by constructing a dual feasible solution from a dual approximate optimal solution. Both procedures can be used as a post-processing phase in our ADMMs. Numerical results for DNNs that are relaxations of the stable set problem are presented. They show the impact of using the factorization of the dual variable in order to improve the progress towards the optimal solution within an iteration of the ADMM. This decreases the number of iterations as well as the CPU time to solve the DNN to a given precision. The experiments also demonstrate that within a computationally cheap post-processing, we can compute bounds that are close to the optimal value even if the DNN was solved to moderate precision only. This makes ADMMs applicable also within a branch-and-bound algorithm.
