title: Shared Book Reading, Home Visit Processes, and the Relation with Low-Income Infants' Language Development
Creators: name: Christiansen, Katie
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2003

description: Language is important for children to succeed in school. Language development begins early in a child's life and can be facilitated by a supportive language environment. Shared book reading is an important aspect of the language environment a child experiences.
This study utilized data from twenty children living in low-income families. These children are part of the Rural Utah Child Development Head Start and receive weekly visits from home visitors. Two home visits were videotaped and coded for parental and home visitor language facilitation behaviors. A parent interview was also completed to obtain participant demographic information and measure child and parent language ability. Relations between parental language facilitation, home visitor language facilitation, and child language ability were examined.

description: Recently F. Huang [Commun. Theor. Phys. V.42 (2004) 903] and X. Tang and P.K. Shukla [Commun. Theor. Phys. V.49 (2008) 229] investigated symmetry properties of the barotropic potential vorticity equation without forcing and dissipation on the beta-plane. This equation is governed by two dimensionless parameters, $F$ and $β$, representing the ratio of the characteristic length scale to the Rossby radius of deformation and the variation of earth' angular rotation, respectively. In the present paper it is shown that in the case $F\ne 0$ there exists a well-defined point transformation to set $β= 0$. The classification of one- and two-dimensional Lie subalgebras of the Lie symmetry algebra of the potential vorticity equation is given for the parameter combination $F\ne 0$ and $β= 0$. Based upon this classification, distinct classes of group-invariant solutions is obtained and extended to the case $β\ne 0$.

title: Single Parenting of Early Adolescents: Clinical Application to a More Helpful Perspective
Creators: name: Weed, Ane
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2006

description: The purpose of this study was to discover the most important self-identified areas for a particular group of single parents to focus their limited time. Single parents have been pathologized and compared to two-parent families. A strength-based perspective that acknowledges single parent families as a legitimate family system with the possibility for being healthy may be more helpful. The objective of this study was to identify common strengths between self-reported satisfied single parents (n = 86) and early adolescent children of single parents (n = 67) through data collected with the use of the Parent Success Indicator (PSI) survey. Single parent family members were generally satisfied. Perceived use of time as effective was important to satisfaction, as were single parent acceptance of their child's lifestyle/habits and single parents fulfilling a teaching role in their child's life.

title: Effectiveness of Utah Level Six Treatment Programs For Juvenile Males Who Offend Sexually: The Client Perspective
Creators: name: Brown, Darren B.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2003

description: This study examined treatment effectiveness from the perspective of former clients of Utah level six treatment programs for juvenile males who offend sexually. Employing an anonymous, self-reported instrument, this study identified a high level of sexual recidivism (44%). In obtaining client perceptions of treatment effectiveness, this study also differentiated between the various components of level six treatment. Individual therapy was rated highest by the clients in helping them in their subsequent efforts not to recidivate. Drug and alcohol treatment received the lowest overall score, while remaining very important in the eyes of a few subjects. This suggests that clients benefit differently from the various components of treatment, and that it might be better to implement some components on an as-needed, case-by-case basis. Family involvement remains an important part of comprehensive treatment within the level six system, acting as a bridge between their residence in treatment and their returning home. This study, though limited by its small sample size, suggests that the client 's perspective, a previously overlooked source of information, can make a valuable contribution to the study of treatment effectiveness for juvenile males who offend sexually.

Creators: name: Madlener, Karin
Publisher: name: Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Darmstadt
Year: 2023

description: Das Thema Mehrsprachigkeit trifft einen Nerv des aktuellen wissenschaftlichen und (bildungs-)politischen Diskurses, und zwar nicht nur in Deutschland (siehe Berthoud, Grin & Lüdi 2013). Dabei treten Ansätze, die Mehrsprachigkeit in erster Linie als Problem und potentielles Defizit ansehen (Stichwort: mehrfache Halbsprachigkeit), immer mehr in den Hintergrund gegenüber einer positiven Perspektive, die in Mehrsprachigkeit ein Potential und einen (ob persönlichen, kulturellen oder wirtschaftlichen) Mehrwert sieht bzw. nach den konkreten Bedingungen des Erreichens eines solchen Mehrwerts fragt. Entsprechend wird eine systematische Förderung und Wertschätzung der individuellen und gesellschaftlichen Mehrsprachigkeit gefordert (vgl. z.B. Gogolin & Lange 2010; Gogolin & Michel 2010). Von hoher Relevanz ist dabei weiterhin u.a. die Frage, welcher Stellenwert, neben spezifischen (Früh-) Förderkonzepten nationaler Bildungssprachen (als Zweitsprachen) und dem Fremdsprachenunterricht in Schule und Erwachsenenbildung (zur Förderung internationaler Verkehrs- und Bildungsfremdsprachen), auf die Familien- und Herkunftssprachen und ihre Förderung entfallen soll. Doch die drängendste Frage bleibt die nach den konkreten Umsetzungsmöglichkeiten entsprechender Forderungen in die Praxis: Wie genau soll eine sowohl sprachlehr- und -lerntheoretisch als auch empirisch begründete, wertschätzende und dabei effektive Förderung und Vermittlung von Mehrsprachigkeit in den verschiedenen Kontexten aussehen? Unter welchen Bedingungen kann sie glücken?

description: We propose to use the second Hopf map for the reduction (via SU(2) group action) of the eight-dimensional N=8 supersymmetric mechanics to five-dimensional supersymmetric systems specified by the presence of an SU(2) Yang monopole. For our purpose we develop the relevant Lagrangian reduction procedure. The reduced system is characterized by its invariance under the N=5 or N=4 supersymmetry generators (with or without an additional conserved BRST charge operator) which commute with the su(2) generators.

title: The Micro-Characteristics of Adult-Neonate Social Interaction
Creators: name: Berghout-Austin, Ann Marie
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1977

description: In order to dissect social behaviors into their smallest components, five interactions, each involving one neonate and one adult, were video taped and kinescoped into 16mm black and white film exposed at 24 frames per second. The film was analyzed frame by frame and all starts, stops, and changes in direction of movements were scored. Adult movement durations were significantly shorter during vocalization and longer during nonvocalization. Each infant and adult body part had its own characteristic movement rate. Almost two-thirds of the dyadic movements were interactionally synchronous and most of the synchronization occurred during vocalization. It is suggested that this behavior comprises an interactional code, innately biased to encourage mutual attachment between parents and infants. Further, it is suggested that the neonate is continually decoding incoming family socialization messages and encoding and relaying her/his own temperament messages which may or may not be harmonious with the overall family temperament.

description: Comparisons were made to determine which appliances owned by homemakers were used often and which appliances were used seldom or never and to relate areas of satisfaction and dissatisfaction to the amount of appliance use. The sample consisted of 123 homemakers from Cache and Weber counties in Utah.
Five hypotheses were tested. The amount of appliance use was significantly related to method of acquisition, performance, design and knowledge factors. The amount of appliance use was not significantly related to storage factors.
A Model for the Corrent Distribution Inside the Resistive Joints of the ATLAS Toroids
Creators: name: G. Volpini
Publisher: name: INFN Open Access Repository
Year: 2000

description: The eddy currents generated inside a cable joint may have remarkable consequences both during measurements on test joints and also during magnet operation. In the latter case the induced currents may be very high, possibly exceeding the critical value. Also the power dissipated by the resistive decay of such currents can be many times larger than the steady state value. These eddy currents -and therefore the dissipation- can be significantly reduced by means of a suitable choice of the joint length.

description: Seit der Schlüsselpublikation Metaphors We Live By (Lakoff & Johnson 1980) wenden sich immer mehr Linguisten der kognitiven Verankerung sprachlicher Strukturen zu und schenken insbesondere dem bildschematischen Gehalt von Präpositionen sowie ihren metaphorischen Bedeutungserweiterungen besondere Beachtung, wie u.a. die Pionierarbeit von Brugman & Lakoff (1988) zur Polysemie der Präposition over bezeugt. Gerade im Kontext ‚Deutsch als Fremdsprache‘ (DaF) sind solche Untersuchungen wertvoll, da Präpositionen im Deutschen zusätzlich auch als Nachverb und Präfix Bedeutung erlangen, was Bellavia (2007: 80-158) u.a. anhand von um und über erarbeitet. Dennoch fehlt bislang noch eine adäquate Hereinnahme dieser Erkenntnisse in die Lehrwerke im DaF-Bereich, wie wir in diesem Beitrag aufzeigen werden. Im Anschluss daran illustrieren wir, wie Deutschlernende auf die kognitive Motiviertheit und die damit verbundene Strukturiertheit des fremdsprachlichen Wortschatzes aufmerksam gemacht werden können, und schlagen Übungen auf der Basis authentischer Sprachkorpora vor, die sich u.a. auch Korpusanalysen zunutze machen.

Noetherian theory in modules over an arbitrary ring.
Creators: name: Burgess, Walter Dean
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Two methods of generalizing the classical Noetherian theory to modules over arbitrary rings are described in detail. The first is by extending the primary ideals and isolated components of Murdoch to modules. The second is by using the tertiary sub-modules of Lesieur and Croisot. The development is self-contained except for elementary notions of ring and module theory. The definition of primal submodules with some results is included for completeness. Some concrete examples are given as illustrations.

description: Obwohl die Spracherwerbsforschung bereits Eingang in die Sprachlehraus- und -weiterbildung gefunden hat, werden ihre vielfältigen Erkenntnisse in der Lehrpraxis, den Lehrwerken und Lernergrammatiken in der Regel völlig außer Acht gelassen. Der vorliegende Beitrag zeigt daher auf, wie sich kognitionslinguistische Ansätze auf den Spracherwerb und auf die Sprachvermittlung anwenden lassen und wie sich das Manko fehlender Synergien zwischen beiden Disziplinen verringern lässt. Der Beitrag hat drei Teile: Im ersten Teil werden die theoretischen Grundlagen einer kognitionslinguistisch basierten Sprachvermittlung skizziert. Im zweiten Teil werden aktuelle Forschungsarbeiten aus dem Bereich der angewandten kognitiven Linguistik diskutiert. Der dritte Teil präsentiert einen innovativen, konzeptuell-inhaltlichen Ansatz, der die Anwendung kognitionslinguistischer Prinzipien auf einige Bereiche der deutschen Grammatik wie das Passiv, die Wechselpräpositionen oder die Modalverben exemplarisch aufzeigt. Darüber hinaus werden kognitive Aspekte des multimedialen Lernens sowie Aspekte des interkulturellen Lernens berücksichtigt.

description: Developing a large area silicon drift detector (SDD) for the ALICE experiment, one of the objectives was to work out a robust and redundant design. As soon as the detector is planned to work without an external divider, the integrated voltage divider plays an important role. Unlike the case of silicon microstrip or pixel detectors, a single defect in the SDD may be propagated throughout the whole detector. We report a new design of the integrated voltage divider that allows to prevent this propagation in most practical cases. Device simulations complement laboratory measurements

description: The LHCb muon trigger system is based on logical channels. For some stations and/or regions the logical channels correspond to the DIALOG outputs, while other stations and/or regions require a combination (OR) of channels coming from more than one chamber or more than one DIALOG output channels. In these cases special boards called Intermediate Boards (IB) are used to generate the logical channel. The 152 IB to instrument the muon detector will be located outside the chamber on the racks near the apparatus. Because of the radiation level foreseen near the detector (@ 2  krad) radiation tolerant device must be used to implement the logic.

title: Towards an error taxonomy for student writing
Creators: name: Dobrić, Nikola
name: Sigott, Guenther
Publisher: name: Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Darmstadt
Year: 2023

description: Current practice in writing assessment has tended to divert attention from the notion of error in favour of more global and intuitive descriptions of learner performance. As a result, experts tend to disagree in the way errors in student writing are described. This brings about complications for student feedback as well as for studying the construct validity (cf. Messick 1989) of rater-mediated assessments of student writing by means of computer-corpus-based methodology, which requires reliable annotation. In order to alleviate these complications, an error taxonomy is proposed which could serve as a basis for student feedback on the one hand, and as a basis for corpus-based studies into the construct validity of large-scale assessments of writing, on the other.

description: Im Herbst/Winter 2013 wurde an drei Goethe-Instituten in der Region Nordwesteuropa der Einsatz von Tablets im Fremdsprachenunterricht pilotiert und innerhalb eines Forschungsprojekts wissenschaftlich begleitet und evaluiert. Es wurde analysiert, ob Tablets (hier iPads) für das Fremdsprachenlernen Potentiale bieten, besonders bei der Förderung des Hörverstehens und des Sprechens. Die Lernenden wurden für die Untersuchung in zwei Gruppen aufgeteilt: Eine Gruppe arbeitete mit Tablets im Unterricht (N=27), die andere ohne (N=21). Die Veränderungen im Bereich Hörverstehen wurde in beiden Gruppen durch einen Vor- und Nachtest mit dem BULATS Online-Test Deutsch gemessen. Die Testergebnisse wurden anschließend miteinander verglichen. Es blieb zunächst offen, ob die Tablets tatsächlich zu einer Verbesserung in bestimmten Bereichen des Fremdsprachenlernens führen oder ob eventuell durch den Fokus auf die Technik mit weniger Lernfortschritt oder einer Verschlechterung zu rechnen ist. Im Verlauf des Projekts zeigte sich, dass die Testgruppe (Tablet-Gruppe) erkennbar bessere Werte im BULATS-Test erzielte als die Kontrollgruppe.

Kurz werden Einflussfaktoren wie die institutionellen Rahmenbedingungen und die Lehrenden sowie Lernmaterialien angesprochen, ausführlicher werden Fragen der Integration/Separation von Fachstudium und Spracherwerb und der Art und des Umfangs des fachbezogenen Teils eines studienbegleitenden Deutschunterrichts und seines Verhältnisses zum allgemeinsprachlichem Unterricht diskutiert. Plädiert wird dafür, den studienbegleitenden Deutschunterricht weder als einen Rückgriff auf einen sich auf Lexik und Grammatik beschränkenden Fachsprachenunterricht noch als Alternative zum allgemeinsprachlichen Unterricht zu sehen, sondern als dessen lernziel- und zielgruppenbezogene Adaption.
title: Decision Making in Two Types of Working Families
Creators: name: Bueche, Nancy Ann
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1977

description: The purpose of this study was to investigate actual decision making in two types of families in which both spouses worked and their perceptions of decision making responsibility in the ideal family. The two family types were composed of (1) Professional wives with professional husbands; and (2) nonprofessional wives with nonprofessional husbands.
Questionnaires were completed by 34 professional couples and 63 nonprofessional couples who resided in Flint, Michigan during the fall of 1976. Factor analyses were completed on the husbands' and wives' self reported responses to questions concerning who should make decisions in the ideal family and who actually mode the decisions in their own family. Professional couples reported that in their own families the majority of the decisions were the major responsibility of the wife and they expected the ideal family's decisions to also be the major responsibility of the wife. Nonprofessional couples reported a more egaIitarian sharing of decision making in their own families and also expected an equal sharing of decision making their concept of the ideal family.

description: Im Frühjahr 2020 brach mit COVID-19 eine weltweite Pandemie aus. Deren teilweise lebensbedrohende Gefahren bekämpften die Staaten mit Lockdowns. Ausser dem Gesundheitssektor, Altersheimen, dem Öffentlichen Verkehr und dem Bau mussten praktisch alle Branchen schliessen, was zu Angebots- und Nachfrageschocks führte. Den drohenden wirtschaftlichen Kollaps versuchten die Industrieländer mit Liquiditätsspritzen und Kurzarbeitstherapie abzuwenden. Die Schweizer Arbeitslosenversicherung benötigte denn auch schon im Sommer 2020 staatliche Unterstützung von über 20 Mrd. CHF. Liquidität floss von der Nationalbank an die Geschäftsbanken, welche dank staatlicher Garantien schnell umfangreiche Kredite an ihre Kunden verteilen konnten. Neben solchen Darlehen an die Firmen gab es grosszügige Direktzahlungen. Tendenziell türmt sich beim Bund für 2020 ein finanzielles Defizit von 21 Mrd. CHF auf und da sind die Ausfallkosten auf die 40 Mrd. CHF durch staatliche Bürgschaften gesicherten Kredite noch nicht eingerechnet. Nun folgt die Zeit der Aufräumarbeiten und der Folgenabschätzung.

description: In addition to chemical reactions, physical processes that transfer mass and energy by diffusion or convection occur in gaseous combustion. In the absence of external forces, the rate of component diffusion depends upon the concentration of the constituents, pressure, and temperature changes, and on diffusion coefficients (a measure of the speed of diffusion). The latter are either measured or calculated in terms of the kinetic theory of gases. The process of diffusion is of great importance in combustion reactions, in flames, that is, in gaseous mixtures, and in solids or liquids. Diffusion heat transfer (by molecular means) follows a law (Fourier's law) stating that the heat flux (a measure of the quantity of heat) is proportional to the temperature gradient (the difference in temperature between two limiting temperatures). The coefficient of proportionality, called the thermal conductivity coefficient, is also measured or calculated in terms of the kinetic theory of gases, like the diffusion coefficient. Convective transport of mass and energy may be accounted for by buoyant forces, external forces, and turbulent and eddy motions. Convection is in the main responsible for the mixing of gases. Sublimation (the direct evaporation of a solid without intermediate liquid stage), evaporation of liquids, and the mechanical destruction of burning samples, all methods of transforming solids and liquids into gases, greatly contribute to their ease of combustion. In general, the combustion of condensed systems, namely liquids and solids, is more complex than that of gases, which accounts for the greater development of the gas combustion theory. Energy transport in combustion may also occur by the emission of light, mostly in the infrared.

title: Children's Attitudes Toward the Dental Experience
Creators: name: Day, Tom Leo
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1977

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the attitudes of children toward the dental visit. A group of children who had undergone dental treatment with the use of nitrous oxide-oxygen served as the experimental group while children who had received dental treatment without the use of nitrous oxide-oxygen served as the control group. Attitudes toward the dental experience among these two groups were compared to determine any differences or similarities due to the type of treatment used. Data were also collected on the parents of the children to determine whether the child's attitude toward the dental visit tended to reflect the attitude toward dentistry as expressed by the accompanying parent.
Forty- five children between the ages of four and ten years old were asked t o identify a hypothetical child depicted in three specific situations as being either "Happy" or "Sad." The three situations were defined as follows : (1) A child coming from the ice cream shop, (2) A child who just cut a finger, and (3) A child just leaving the dentist's office. The parents in this study were asked to rate their anxiety related to visiting the dentist as being either (1) very relaxed, (2) generally relaxed, (3) generally anxious, or (4) very anxious.
No significant difference was established between the nitrous oxide-oxygen children and the nonnitrous oxide group in relation to their attitudes toward the dental experience. No significant relationship was noted between the child's attitude and the respective parent's attitude in relation to the dental visit. A significant relationship between the boys and the girls was noted in the "Happy" classification group when the sex of the child was compared to the child's point of reference as given in the hypothetical dental situation.

The following is a descriptive study of 30 marriage and family therapists (MFTs) in the state of Utah. The demographic variables of clinical experience, sex, case load, setting of practice, education level, and marital status were studied as to their relation to the experience of burnout. Statistically significant findings demonstrated that the variables of sex and caseload were the only two variables that showed a relationship to burnout.
Also studied was how prevention techniques such as diet, exercise, time-off, peer consultation, supervision and personal therapy lessened the effects of burnout. Although interesting trends were indicated, only diet was found to be statistically significant. The participants of this study al so gave detail ed suggestions as to how they work to prevent burnout in their own careers as well as advice to help beginning therapists to also lessen the effects of burnout.
Nbn: A Fast, Low Cost, Mini Data Acquisition System for Nuclear Physics
Creators: name: Ordine, Antonio
Publisher: name: INFN Open Access Repository
Year: 2004

description: A multiparametric data acquisition system, based on VME system and Macintosh desktop computer, has been developed as an evolution towards smaller size (few tens of raw parameters) nuclear physics experiments of an acquisition system implemented for heavy ion induced nuclear reactions (few hundreds of parameters and high counting rates) using VME, CAMAC-FERA modules and middle size Work-Station (as Digital alpha station and/or HP WS). The system acquires data from VME ADCs, processes and stores them on a SCSI storage media (EXABYTE or DLT unit). The block diagram and the main features of the system and its friendly user interface will be described.
title: Types of and Negotiation of Connection Rituals in Newlywed Couples
Creators: name: Davis, Rachel N.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2006

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the types of connection rituals and negotiation patterns that newlywed couples use in their marriage. Past research has shown that rituals can have a positive effect on marital satisfaction . Five research questions guided the study: (1) Who initiates rituals and the frequency in which the rituals are performed? What process does the couple go through to negotiate them? (2) What percentage of rituals do newlywed couples take from their family of origin? (3) Are women the "kin keepers" in their family/relationship? (4) Are there certain factors newlyweds take into consideration when negotiating? and (5) Are there some rituals more important to marital satisfaction?
The research questions were tested with data from twenty newlywed couples who completed a survey designed specifically for this study. Results found that women initiate rituals more frequently in newlywed couples, verbal communication was the highest reported process couples go through to negotiate, family of origin practices are more often taken from the wife's family, and there are connection rituals both for husbands and wives that aid to their marital sati satisfaction. Implications and suggestions for future research are also presented.
title: A Needs Assessment of Marriage and Family Therapy Approved Supervision in Utah
Creators: name: Woodbury, Daniel J.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2005

description: This research presents data gathered through a needs assessment regarding approved supervision in Utah. A sample of ISO therapists in Utah gave descriptive facts about the current need for supervision in Utah as well as the number of therapists that are willing to provide supervision. Additionally, therapists that are not currently approved supervisors indicated whether or not they would be willing to become approved supervisors, what would make the designation more appealing, and what would impede them from becoming an approved supervisor. Therapists in agencies also gave information regarding how agencies currently view marriage and family therapy interns and their willingness to support approved supervision in Utah. Finally, therapists were given an opportunity to express their opinions in two open-ended questions. The findings indicate that there is an abundance of supervisors willing to provide supervision and many therapists are willing to become supervisors. The study also shows that many therapists are reluctant to become approved supervisors because of the time and cost that are associated with the current supervision process.

description: We analyze meson-baryon scattering lengths in the framework of covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory at leading one-loop order. We compute the complete set of matching relations between the dimension-two low-energy constants in the two- and three-flavor formulations of the theory. We derive new two-flavor low-energy theorems for pion-hyperon and pion-cascade scattering that can be tested in lattice simulations.

description: A new mechanism is suggested for efficient proton acceleration in the GeV energy range; applications to non-conventional high intensity proton drivers and, hence, to low-energy (10-200~MeV) neutrino sources are discussed. In particular we investigate possible uses to explore subdominant v ̅_μ->v ̅_e oscillations at the atmospheric scale and their CP conjugate. We emphasize the opportunity to develop these facilities in conjunction with projects for inertial confined nuclear fusion and neutron spallation sources.
title: Marital Quality, Context, and Interaction: A Comparison of Individuals Across Various Income Levels
Creators: name: Harris, Victor W.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2006

description: This research compared measures of marital quality between married respondents who were classified as adults currently receiving government assistance (GA) or adults not currently receiving government assistance (NGA). Additional demographic/contextual variables such as gender, age, age at first marriage, religiosity, income, education, cohabitation, mental health, and substance abuse along with four interactional variables - escalating negativity, criticism, negative interpretation, and withdrawal - were measured as potential correlates with marital quality.
Results indicated statistically significant differences between GA and NGA individuals on all of the marital quality measures and on 8 of the 11 demographic/contextual variables. Additionally, the four interactional variables showed strong predictive associations for each measure of marital quality for both GA and NGA individuals. Findings from this study are synthesized to help legislators, policy makers, therapists, and other helping professionals target specific needs and intervention strategies for each of these two distinct populations.

description: Betrachtet man die Diskussion über den Stellenwert der Aufgabenorientierung und der Projektorientierung im mo- dernen Fremdsprachenunterricht, so muss man feststellen, dass diese vielversprechenden didaktisch-methodischen Ansätze sich auch über 30 Jahre nach ihrem Entstehen noch nicht durchgesetzt haben, aber weiterhin diskutiert werden (z.B. Bär 2013; Bausch, Burwitz-Melzer, Königs & Krumm 2006). Der Verfasser möchte mit seiner hier vorliegenden Dissertation einen Beitrag zur Erforschung der Einführung und Weiterentwicklung dieser Ansätze im kommunikativen Fremdsprachenunterricht – in Abgrenzung zur Audiolingualen und zur Grammatik-Übersetzungs-Methode – leisten und bezieht sich dabei insbesondere auf den schulischen Fremdsprachenunterricht Englisch inDeutschland sowie auf den schulischen DaF-Unterricht im Ausland (v.a. einzelne Regionen in Tschechien und Kanada).
On the logarithmic powers of $sl(2)$ SYM$_4$

description: In the high spin limit the minimal anomalous dimension of (fixed) twist operators in the $sl(2)$ sector of planar ${\cal N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills theory expands as $γ(g,s,L)=f(g) \ln s + f_{sl}(g,L) + \sum \limits_{n=1}^\infty γ^{(n)}(g,L) (\ln s)^{-n} + ... $. We find that the sub-logarithmic contribution $γ^{(n)}(g,L) $ is governed by a linear integral equation, depending on the solution of the linear integral equations appearing at the steps $n'\leq n-3$. We work out this recursive procedure and determine explicitly $γ^{(n)}(g,L) $ (in particular $γ^{(1)}(g,L)=0$ and $γ^{(n)}(g,2)=γ^{(n)}(g,3)=0$). Furthermore, we connect the $γ^{(n)}(g,L) $ (for finite $L$) to the generalised scaling functions, $f^{(r)}_n(g)$, appearing in the limit of large twist $L\sim\ln s$. Finally, we provide the first orders of weak and strong coupling for the first $γ^{(n)}(g,L)$ (and hence $f^{(r)}_n(g)$).

description: Let $β\in(1,2)$ be a Pisot number and let $H_β$ denote Garsia's entropy for the Bernoulli convolution associated with $β$. Garsia, in 1963 showed that $H_β<1$ for any Pisot $β$. For the Pisot numbers which satisfy $x^m=x^{m-1}+x^{m-2}+...+x+1$ (with $m\ge2$) Garsia's entropy has been evaluated with high precision by Alexander and Zagier and later improved by Grabner, Kirschenhofer and Tichy, and it proves to be close to 1. No other numerical values for $H_β$ are known. In the present paper we show that $H_β>0.81$ for all Pisot $β$, and improve this lower bound for certain ranges of $β$. Our method is computational in nature.

description: Das mentale Lexikon wird als Wörterbuch im Kopf apostrophiert. In diesem „geistigen Wörterbuch“ (Miller 1995: 48) existieren Wörter nicht unabhängig voneinander, sondern sie sind miteinander in netzwerkartigen Strukturen verknüpft. Bei der Erforschung dieser Organisationsstrukturen gilt ein besonderes Augenmerk dem Aufbau des zweisprachigen Lexikons, wo zugleich zwei Sprachen ein verknüpftes System bilden.

description: I review two classes of strong coupling problems in condensed matter physics, and describe insights gained by application of the AdS/CFT correspondence. The first class concerns non-zero temperature dynamics and transport in the vicinity of quantum critical points described by relativistic field theories. I describe how relativistic structures arise in models of physical interest, present results for their quantum critical crossover functions and magneto-thermoelectric hydrodynamics. The second class concerns symmetry breaking transitions of two-dimensional systems in the presence of gapless electronic excitations at isolated points or along lines (i.e. Fermi surfaces) in the Brillouin zone. I describe the scaling structure of a recent theory of the Ising-nematic transition in metals, and discuss its possible connection to theories of Fermi surfaces obtained from simple AdS duals.
