title: A comparative analysis of corporate insolvency laws
Creators: name: Papp, Zsófia Emese
Year: 2019

description: Seit der Finanzkrise 2008, wird dem Thema “Konkurse” verstärkt Aufmerksamkeit gewidmet. Als Folge der Wirtschaftskrise wurde die Gestaltung von Gesetzen und Richtlinien in Bezug auf finanzielle Notlagen und Konkurse weltweit noch wichtiger. Daher wurde in den letzten Jahrzehnten-, neben der Entwicklung der nationalen Konkursgesetze, auch dem Verfassen gemeinsamer internationaler Konkursgesetze große Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt. Das Ziel dieser Masterarbeit ist es, das Ausmaß zu bestimmen, in dem sich die Insolvenzverfahren in Europa und den USA unterscheiden, indem vier Insolvenzsysteme in Europa analysiert werden, die schließlich mit den Vereinigten Staaten verglichen werden. Darüber hinaus wird im zweiten Teil der Schwerpunkt auf Europa gelegt, wobei untersucht wird, ob eine Tendenz zu einem gemeinsamen und einheitlichen System des Konkursrechts in der Europäischen Union besteht. Das Ergebnis der Untersuchung ist, dass-, obwohl die europäischen Systeme ihren amerikanischen Pendants weniger ähnlich sind als erwartet, eine klare Tendenz zur Schaffung eines gemeinsamen Systems von Konkursgesetzen innerhalb der EU besteht.
description: Since the financial crisis of 2008, an increased attention is devoted to the topic of bankruptcies. As a consequence of the depression, framing laws and guidelines concerning financial distress and bankruptcies became even more important worldwide. Therefore, besides the development of the national bankruptcy laws, in the last couple of decades considerable attention was dedicated to the constitution of a common set of international bankruptcy laws as well. The aim of this thesis is to determine the extent to which the European and the United States’ bankruptcy processes differ, by analyzing four bankruptcy systems in Europe, which are finally compared to the States. Additionally, in the second part the focus is laid on Europe, investigating whether there is a tendency of heading towards a common and unified system of bankruptcy laws within the European Union. The result of the research is that even though the European systems are less similar to their U.S. counterparts than it was expected, there is a clear tendency for generating a common system of bankruptcy laws within the EU.

AUTISTIC CHILDREN CAN LEARN: A PUBLIC SCHOOL PROGRAM FOR AUTISTIC CHILDREN
Creators: name: Slattery, Valerie Gordon
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The purpose of the present study was to analyze the Fairfax County Public School Autistic Program and to use this analysis to revise and expand the current Autistic Program Handbook. In the winter of 1972, the Fairfax County Public School System opened its first class for autistic children. This Autistic Program was one of the first public school programs for autistic children in the country. The Fairfax County School System believes that autism is a developmental disability. "Creak's Nine Points" (Creak, 1964) and the National Society for Autistic Children's "Definition of the Syndrome of Autism" (Ritvo & Freeman, 1977) are accepted as the determining criteria for program placement. The Fairfax County Public School Autistic Program focuses upon remediation of the child's deficits. Behavior modification techniques are utilized by all teachers in the program to produce new behaviors; increase and maintain existing, appropriate behaviors; and reduce socially inappropriate behaviors. This is the major treatment paradigm used by the Fairfax County Public School Autistic Program. With the impetus of P.L. 94-142, a study such as this became a necessity. It was the intention of the author to devise a new descriptive handbook for the autistic program. The handbook will serve as a guide for the Fairfax County Autistic Program administrators, teachers, and parents. Further, it may be a model for other school systems anticipating the development of their own programs for autistic children. The program manager, teachers, and selected parents were questioned concerning their views regarding the present autistic program. Questions related to the areas of assessment, management techniques, reporting and recording data, curriculum considerations, teaching techniques, classroom organization, staff, and parent programs. Therefore, the newly revised handbook is structured in a similar manner, incorporating input from all sources consulted. The results of these structured interviews indicate that the current 1974 handbook contains much outdated material. Although the 1974 handbook covers most essential components, it is not designed specifically for the parents and teachers in the autistic program. It serves more as a general administrative guide to persons seeking information regarding a program for autistic children. General responses in all areas by both parents and teachers indicated a need for greater consistency and uniformity within the autistic program. This consistency is accomplished by the newly revised handbook.
Status of the KATRIN neutrino mass analysis using Monte Carlo propagation and a novel neural network approach
Creators: name: Wiesinger, Christoph
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: The Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment probes the effective electron anti-neutrino mass by a precision measurement of the tritium beta-decay spectrum near the endpoint. A world-leading upper limit of 0.8 eV (90 % CL) has been set with the first two measurement campaigns. New operational conditions for an improved signal-to-background ratio, the reduction of systematic uncertainties and a substantial increase in statistics allow to expand this reach. The performance figures of three additional datasets, analysed with the Monte Carlo propagation method, and an outlook on their combination using a novel neural network technique will be presented.

THE EUROPEAN ADVISORY COMMISSION AND ALLIED PLANNING FOR A DEFEATED GERMANY, 1943-1945
Creators: name: Thomas, Edward John Francis
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 4303
subject: Historical studies

description: The European Advisory Council was established by the governments of the USSR, U.S. and Britain in October 1943 and charged with developing recommendations about the terms of surrender to be imposed upon Germany and its satellites. Meeting in London on a regular basis until August 1945, the Commission considered a range of economic and political problems relating to Germany and its role in the future of Europe. With the addition of a French representative in November 1944, the Commission offered a forum for the fourth subsequent occupying Power to present its views. This study investigates planning for treatment of a defeated Germany at two levels. At the secondary level, it considers the formation of U.S. policy from among the conflicting plans of agencies and advisors. At the primary level, it examines closely the proceedings of the EAC against the background of Allied wartime diplomacy. It describes this unique attempt at political cooperation and identifies the plans of the four governments for postwar Germany and, by inference, for postwar Europe. American leaders, unaccustomed to involvement in European affairs and uneasy in their new-found power were seen, time and again, to defer political questions, prefering instead to seek a military solution that would preclude diplomatic involvement. The Soviets, thrust by the fortunes of war into an unexpected alliance with two Western capitalist giants were slow in discussion and slower in agreement. British diplomacy, like its leader, was confident and assertive. Sure that it could best rule Europe, it sought to impose a complex and long-lived administration upon the continent. The French, mistrustful of their allies, but more fearful of the enemy, sought a program that would insure German weakness for generations to come. The EAC was the only organization in which representatives of the three great Allied powers met regularly to consider a major wartime problem. In its successes the Commission demonstrated that, despite the obstacles of varying ideologies and objectives, agreement could be attained on a range of issues; the failures of the Commission, in like manner, set the limits of effective cooperation and foreshadowed the confrontation that was to come.

Measurement of neutrino oscillations with KM3NeT/ORCA
Creators: name: Zineb Aly
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: KM3NeT/ORCA is a neutrino telescope currently under construction in the Mediterranean Sea near Toulon, France. Its ultimate goal is the determination of the neutrino mass ordering based on several years of data taking with an instrumented seawater mass of about 7 Mton. From January 2020 until November 2020 KM3NeT/ORCA accumulated data with six detection units, which corresponds to about 3% of its envisaged final size. From these data a clean sample of more than thousand atmospheric neutrinos has been extracted. This contribution recalls the potential of the complete KM3NeT/ORCA detector to determine the neutrino mass ordering, to constrain the normalisation of the tau-neutrino flux and to measure the oscillation parameters θ23 and Δm312. Further, a first measurement of these parameters from early data from KM3NeT/ORCA will be presented.

THE ECONOMICS OF JOB SEARCH AND EMPLOYMENT BEHAVIOR OF WIN WOMEN
Creators: name: Goldman, Barbara Skolnik
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of providing job search assistance on the decision to look for and accept employment for a group of welfare women registering with the Work Incentive (WIN) Program. For this population, it is believed that the costs of looking for work are a serious impediment to undertaking job search and, hence, finding employment. To help overcome these impediments, WIN registrants were offered help with direct out-of-pocket meal, transportation, and child-care expenses, partial compensation for time spent in search and job-readiness preparation and counseling. Economic models explaining the search and employment behavior of WIN women were developed and then estimated using data generated from an experimental test of this program in Louisville, Kentucky, during 1979 and 1980. New female WIN registrants were randomly assigned to either an experimental group offered immediate job search or to a control group offered regular WIN services. This study hypothesizes that Louisville's program of job search assistance will reduce total search costs to a greater extent than it will increase the opportunity costs of search time. Further, such a program will offer registrants a more structured and intensified search effort, resulting in increased job offers and, hence, increased probability of finding employment as compared to a group of clients not offered search assistance. The empirical findings suggest what while both experimental and control group members exhibited similar tendencies to report "looking for work," the nature and intensity of this search effort varied, with a greater proportion of the experimental group (55.1 percent) participating in a more structured and intensive search program than the control group (5.0 percent). Further, the offer of job search assistance did have the intended impact on the employment behavior of WIN women. Experimentals exhibited a 67.6 percent probability of being employed at some time during the fifteen-month post-WIN registration period compared to 62.2 percent for controls. This resulted in a significant employment impact of 5.4 percent. Education, previous work experience, health, age, and WIN status are also important determinants of an individual's decision to look for and accept employment.

Constraints on the neutrino emission from the Galactic Ridge with the ANTARES detector
Creators: name: Neronov, Andrii
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Interactions of cosmic ray protons, atomic nuclei and electrons in the interstellar medium in the inner part of the Milky Way produce a gamma-ray flux from the Galactic Ridge (|l|<30°, |b|<2°). If the gamma-ray emission is dominated by proton and nucleus interactions, a comparable neutrino flux is expected from the same region.
 Data collected by the ANTARES detector from 2007 to 2020 have been analysed to constrain the neutrino emission from the Galactic Ridge in the TeV energy range. Both track- and shower-like events have been considered and an ON-OFF analysis has been performed to estimate a possible excess of events in the ON region with respect to the expected background originating from atmospheric neutrinos. The results of the fit in terms of the neutrino flux normalisation and spectral index will be presented and compared to the Fermi-LAT measurements in the context of the model of common origin of gamma-rays and neutrinos from proton and nuclei interactions in the inner Galactic Disk.
title: Professionalität und die Bedeutung der Mentalen Repräsentanz von Wissen
Creators: name: Prem, Manuel
Year: 2018

description: Diese reflexiv-theoretische Masterarbeit wurde im Kontext des Forschungsprojektes „TheoPrax“ unter Anleitung von Univ.-Prof. Dr. Wilfried Datler geschrieben. Das Forschungsinteresse dieser Arbeit richtet sich dabei auf die Analyse der Zusammenhänge von mental repräsentiertem Wissen, implizitem Wissen, Praxis und Emotion im Kontext von sozialpädagogischer Professionalität. Der erste Teil dieser Arbeit widmet sich dabei der Bedeutung von explizitem Wissen im Diskurs über sozialpädagogische Professionalität. Dabei kann gezeigt werden, dass die Positionen in diesem Diskurs bezüglich der Bedeutung von explizitem Wissen sehr heterogen sind. Im zweiten Teil dieser Arbeit werden die unterschiedlichen Positionen aus dem Diskurs mit den Aussagen interviewter SozialpädagogInnen (durchgeführt im Rahmen von TheoPrax) in Verbindung gesetzt. Dadurch können Erkenntnisse hinsichtlich der Möglichkeiten und Grenzen expliziten Wissens und problematischer Professionalisierungsanforderungen gewonnen werden. Zusätzlich kann das Verständnis um sozialpädagogische Professionalität durch den Blick auf emotionale Faktoren, welche mit den Bewertungen der Bedeutung von explizitem Wissen (im Zuge der Interviewaussagen) einhergehen können, erweitert werden. Im dritten Teil dieser Arbeit kann schließlich die Forschungsmethodik von TheoPrax durch die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse über die Zusammenhänge von explizitem Wissen, Praxis und Emotion reflektiert werden. Dabei zeigt sich zusätzlich, dass auch die Dynamik der Interviewsituation einen Einfluss auf die genannten Zusammenhänge haben kann.

description: The paper aims to investigate sustainable lighting technology for Malaysia highways to reduce the power consumption, the carbon emission and to create a healthy environment for the future generations. This can be achieved through the replacement of the existing conventional High-Pressure Sodium (HPS) lighting system with the (LED) lighting system. The study focused on the identification and calculation of the electrical power consumption and life cycle cost for both lighting systems. The results of cost and consumption are analysed by comparing both types to determine the energy and economic benefits of (LED) adoption in Malaysia highways. The method used in data collection is gathered from manufacturer-lighting specification, as well as from questionnaire of highway concessionaire of Malaysia. Results of utilization of LED have shown that the percentage of saving energy reaches 50-60 % and 70-80 % reduction in life cycle cost compared to the HPS. The project return on investment has been estimated to be 2.39 y. The implementation of LED will reduce 6.6 % of the total electrical consumption in Malaysia since the highway lighting systems consumption represent 12.1 % of the total electricity consumption in Malaysia. Furthermore, the reduction in Greenhouse Gases (GHG) emission will drop by 50-60 % since the emission from electricity consumed for highway lighting system represent 12 % of the total emission in Malaysia. Finally, the investigation and findings are of major benefit to Malaysian highway that can assist the decision maker to choose the most sustainable and green option.

Low Energy Reconstruction in IceCube DeepCore and Upgrade using Graph Neural Networks
Creators: name: ØRsøe, Rasmus
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are an emerging tool in high energy physics experiments which provide the high dimensionality pattern recognition of deep learning generalised to sparse and geometrically complex data. This work presents a general method based on GNNs for reconstruction of events observed by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. The method generalises to the entire energy range of IceCube and is flexible enough to be compatible with the coming detector upgrade featuring new sensor types on additional strings. The GNN is trained to reconstruct energy, zenith, azimuth and interaction vertex. In addition, the GNN is trained to classify atmospheric muons from neutrino events and to classify event topologies. In this poster we first apply the method to simulated events in the low energy range of IceCube DeepCore, and demonstrate that the GNN leads to substantial improvements in the oscillation contours, as compared to the currently-in-use methods. We then apply the method to IceCube Upgrade and show how uncertainty estimations from the GNN can be used in event selection and that the GNN can be used for noise removal of the new DOM types.

title: Weibliche und männliche Figuren in der Literatur von Simone de Beauvoir und Albert Camus
Creators: name: Capatu, Ioana
Year: 2019

description: In der vorliegenden Diplomarbeit, mit dem Titel „Weibliche und männliche Figuren in der Literatur von Simone de Beauvoir und Albert Camus“, beschäftige ich mich mit der Darstellung der Figuren in insgesamt vier Werken der beiden AutorInnen – Mémoires d’une jeune fille rangée, Les belles images, L’étranger sowie Caligula. Anhand ausgewählter Sekundärliteratur wird in der Arbeit analysiert, inwiefern weibliche und männliche Figuren bei den beiden ExistenzialistInnen konträr beschrieben werden und sich somit essenziell unterscheiden. Die Geschlechterbeziehung und die Repräsentation der DarstellerInnen stehen im Fokus, mit dem Ziel der Beantwortung folgen-der Frage: Warum unterscheidet sich das Konstrukt der Frau bei den beiden ExistenzialistInnen Simone de Beauvoir und Albert Camus, wenn der Existenzialismus eine humanistische Philosophie sein soll?

Results of the search for resonant absorbtion of 7Li solar axions using the CUPID-Mo data
Creators: name: Dixon, Toby
Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: Axions are a hypothetical particle which can help solve the strong CP problem in quantum chromodynamics and could be a possible dark matter candidate. Axions could be produced by 7Li nuclei in the sun and due to doppler broadening these axions could then be detected on earth using a source containing 7Li. In this poster, we report the results of a search for 7Li solar axions with the CUPID-Mo experiment. CUPID-Mo is a neutrinoless double beta decay experiment using Lithium Molbydate (LMO) crystals operated as cryogenic calorimeters. Additionally, a large mass of 7Li available in detectors with very good energy resolution enables a sensitive search for axions. These results help close a gap in the excluded axion mass range from experiments using 57Fe/83Kr detectors, which is sensitive to smaller axion mass, and 7Li, sensitive to higher mass.
title: The Viral Sublime and the Bodily Experience of Oil Painting
Creators: name: Morris, Suzi
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2017

description: The Viral Sublime exposes a symbiosis between oil paint(ing), virology, and contemporary concepts of the sublime. It explores how the sublime is portrayed by the dual identity of viruses as both malevolent and beneficial in regenerative medicine and genomic science. My painting embodies my imaginative relationship with being in the world knowing that my body is shared with an unwanted virus that has the potential to destroy or possibly save me. To convey my sense of being in a viral world, my painting takes the form of viral landscapes in which oil paint is treated as having some characteristics inherent to viruses, in the ways in which oil paint behaves on a substrate. In fostering these viral dimensions of oil paint in my paintings, an homologous relationship between oil paint and viruses is demonstrated. Meeting with scientists and managing the medical intervention necessary, virology and genomics have become sources of inspiration in relation to the regenerative potential of the sublime. The Viral Sublime is not designed to provide answers, but to question whether it is through the gaze of technology, medicine or science that postmodern ideas of the sublime continue to thrive. 
Since Edmund Burke’s Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of Our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful, artists have conceived the sublime as a distinctive aesthetic category that is magnificent but overwhelming, awe-inspiring but terrifying, dangerous and life threatening (Burke, 1757). My lifelong experience of dealing with forces unseen to the naked eye has motivated the contextualisation of my practice within the art histories of invisible energies and virology. Drawing upon Burke and Immanuel Kant’s theories, and postmodern concepts of the sublime within contemporary art, the terrifying and overwhelming power of the contemporary sublime in the form of viruses is explored in my painting. As genomic medicine opens the doors to personalised medicine, one of many objectives is to expand the dialogue between science, medicine and art to initiate change in society’s perceptions of disease, particularly viruses. I propose the Viral Sublime as a new category and extension to knowledge within the canon of art history surrounding the concept of the sublime.
title: Bored with school: An exploration of young persons' experiences of becoming disengaged from school and attending alternative provision

description: Student disengagement is a multidimensional construct consisting of cognitive, behavioural and affective dimensions. Whilst past research has addressed factors which lead students to become disengaged from school, little research has focused on identifying what works to prevent student disengagement.
This research aimed to explore the views of young persons in their final year of compulsory schooling and who were attending an Alternative Learning Programme (ALP). The research also aimed to develop a theory which could explain the process of student disengagement. In order to investigate this process, grounded theory was used to analyse the data collected from the interviews. A mixed methods research design was applied. The quantitative approach involved the distribution of a questionnaire to all the students attending the ALP to collect demographic information, to inform which areas to explore in the qualitative approach and to select participants for the following phase. The data was analysed through SPSS and descriptive statistics were produced. In the qualitative approach, ten semi-structured interviews were carried out. The participants answered questions about their engagement at school. The emergent theory states that student disengagement is likely to occur when there is an interaction between the variables; unmet needs, unappealing curriculum and hostile relationships. The participants attributed reengagement in learning at the ALP to vocational subjects which were considered as practical and hands-on. Students also considered the curriculum as appropriate for their level. School staff were perceived as caring and supportive and this was key to making them develop a sense of belonging at school. The findings from this research indicate the strong impact teachers have on their students. Thus, teachers need to increase their awareness on how much they can influence their students. Finally, when students find their learning as useful, relevant, and are able to succeed, they are more likely to be engaged at school.

A STEPPING STONE: THE HISTORY OF ANNE ARUNDEL COMMUNITY COLLEGE
Creators: name: Likins, Jeanne Marie
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: In most respects, the history of Anne Arundel Community College (AACC) parallels the pattern of national community college development. Although AACC experienced countless changes as it evolved, the College's commitment to educational opportunity emerged as the most significant hallmark of its history. With accessibility as the fundamental characteristic of educational opportunity, AACC enabled thousands of individuals to pursue higher education because it served as a stepping stone which led to new experiences and opportunities which would have been denied them had AACC not been established. The study opens with a section which highlights the emergence and development of the national and Maryland community college movements within the context of America's historical dream to provide universal educational opportunity. The history of the College begins with the early initiatives of local citizens who persuaded the county board of education to establish a college. While tracing the institution's development from September 1961 to June 1980, this history chronicles the College's developmental stages and describes how each of the four presidents responded to the unique opportunities and challenges during his tenure. This, coupled with presidential leadership styles, modified AACC's institutional identity and produced characteristic themes for each developmental period. In addition to recording the who, what, when, where, and how of events, this history pursues the more fundamental question of why. Events and individual's behaviors are examined and provide a more meaningful understanding of Anne Arundel Community College's history.
