title: Dolmetschen bei ausländischen Vertretungsbehörden
Creators: name: Knie, Julia Katharina
Year: 2017

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit setzt sich mit der Dolmetschtätigkeit bei ausländischen Vertretungsbehörden auseinander. Methodisch stützt sie sich dabei auf sechs Leitfadeninterviews mit ExpertInnen, nämlich ausgebildeten ÜbersetzerInnen und DolmetscherInnen, die bei den in Wien ansässigen Vertretungsbehörden der Länder Kolumbien, Venezuela, Mexiko, Ecuador, Dominikanische Republik und Spanien für die Arbeitssprachen Deutsch, Spanisch und Englisch fest angestellt sind. Ziel dieser Methode ist es, ein umfassendes und praxisnahes Bild der Dolmetschtätigkeit bei ausländischen Vertretungsbehörden zu vermitteln und zu ergründen, in welches Berufs- und Tätigkeitsprofil sich diese einfügt, welche Dolmetschmodi in welchem Setting angewendet werden, worin die besonderen Anforderungen und Herausforderungen an die Dolmetschleistung bestehen und in welchem Verhältnis die Berufspraxis zur Berufsethik steht. Es ergeben sich neue Funktionen, die über die einfache Sprachmittlung hinausgehen und in ein Spannungsfeld mit den berufsethischen Prinzipien eintreten. Das Anliegen dieser Arbeit besteht darin, diesen bislang in der Literatur noch weitestgehend unerforschten Dolmetschzweig sichtbarer zu machen und eventuell notwendige Aufklärungsarbeit bezüglich Arbeitsweise und -bedingungen zu leisten.
description: This Master’s thesis examines the role of interpretation at Foreign Representations. The following work draws on six semi-structured interviews conducted with trained translators and interpreters who are employed at the Vienna-based Foreign Representations of Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico, Ecuador, the Dominican Republic and Spain with German, English and Spanish as their working languages. This method aims at drawing up a comprehensive and realistic picture of the interpretation service at Foreign Representations and outlining the overall job profile, the interpreting modes applied in the respective settings, the special requirements and challenges of interpreting, and the relationship between effective practice and professional ethics. Interpreters take on new functions which go beyond the simple act of “translation” and often conflict with the principles of professional ethics. This thesis seeks to make this still largely unresearched domain more visible and to facilitate educational work regarding work conditions and requirements.

description: Understanding magnetic activity on the surface of stars other than the Sun is important for exoplanet analyses to properly characterize an exoplanet's atmosphere and to further characterize stellar activity on a wide range of stars. Modeling stellar surface features of a variety of spectral types and rotation rates are key to understanding of the magnetic activity of these stars. Using data from Kepler, we use the starspot modeling program STarSPot (STSP) to measure the position and size of spots for KOI-340 which is an eclipsing binary consisting of a subgiant star ($\rm T_{\rm eff} = 5593 \pm 27 K; R_{*} = 1.98 \pm 0.05 R_{\odot}$) with an M-dwarf companion ($M_{*} = 0.214 \pm 0.006 M_{\odot}$). STSP uses a novel technique to measure the spot positions and radii by using the transiting secondary to study and model individual active regions on the stellar surface using high-precision photometry. We find the average size of spot features on KOI-340's primary is $\sim$10% the radius of the star, i.e. two times larger than the mean size of Solar-maximum sunspots. The spots on KOI-340 are present at every longitude and show possible signs of differential rotation. The minimum fractional spotted area of KOI-340's primary is $2\substack{+12\\ -2} \%$ while the spotted area of the Sun is at most 0.2%. One transit of KOI-340 shows a signal in the transit consistent with a plage; this plage occurs right before a dark spot indicating the plage and spot might be co-located on the surface of the star.

title: Synthetische Eisenkomplexe als Modelle für natürliche aquatische Huminstoffe
Creators: name: Valda, Alexander
Year: 2017

description: Huminsäuren erfüllen wichtige Funktionen in Böden und Gewässern. Unter anderem dienen sie als natürliche Chelatliganden für Übergangsmetallionen. Sie greifen durch Komplexbildung in die Verwitterung der Minerale ein und beeinflussen stark die Löslichkeit und Bioverfügbarkeit von Mangan, Kupfer, Zink und anderen Metallen, besonders aber von Eisen. Eisen ist essentiell für fast alle Lebewesen, seine Bioverfügbarkeit in Böden und Gewässern wird durch pH und Sauerstoffgehalt reguliert. Unter den Bedingungen des offenen Ozeans bildet sich sehr schwerlösliches Fe(OH)3, d.h. das Eisen neigt dazu, auszufallen, zu sedimentieren und die durchlichtete Zone rasch zu verlassen. Die Primärproduktion im Ozean hängt daher von der Anwesenheit organischer Komplexliganden ab, die das Eisen in Lösung halten, sodass es in der durchlichteten Zone in ausreichender Konzentration vorhanden und bioverfügbar bleibt. Besonders in Küstengewässern spielen - aus terrestrischen Lebensräumen stammende - Huminsäuren eine große Rolle. Diese bilden sehr stabile, im Meerwasser gut lösliche Komplexe mit Fe(III). Allerdings ist über die Bioverfügbarkeit des an Huminsäuren gebundenen Eisens sehr wenig bekannt. Es wird wegen der großen Stabilität dieser Komplexe (deren Molekülmassen im Bereich 2000 - 3000 Da liegen) oft angenommen, dass das Huminstoff-Eisen von Phytoplankton-Organismen nicht genutzt werden kann. Die Erforschung der Fe-Huminstoff-Komplexe wird dadurch erschwert, dass es sich bei den natürlichen Huminsäuren um ein kompliziertes Stoffgemisch recht variabler Zusammensetzung handelt. Im Rahmen der Diplomarbeit sollen unterschiedliche, als Huminstoff-Modellsysteme geeignete Eisen(III)komplexe sowie die Bioverfügbarkeit des an die Modell-Liganden gebundenen Eisens für marine Phytoplankton-Algen anhand von Wachstumsexperimenten mit den Meeresalgen Chlorella salina und Diacronema lutheri untersucht werden. Parallel sollen die entsprechenden Algen-Wachstumsexperimente auch mit natürlichen Huminstoffen, gewonnen aus Bächen und Flüssen Nord-Schottlands, durchgeführt werden. Durch Vergleich der Ergebnisse der Algen-Wachstumsexperimente mit synthetischen Komplexbildnern mit jenen Algen-Wachstumsexperimenten mit natürlichen Huminstoffen ist eine Aussage darüber möglich, ob die untersuchten synthetischen Komplexbildner als Modellsubstanz für natürliche Huminstoffe geeignet sind. Zu beachten ist jedoch, dass Ergebnisse von Experimenten mit einer Meeres-Algen-Art nicht ohne weiteres auf andere Meeres-Algen-Arten übertragbar sind.

description: Introdução: Na Europa, a infecção por rotavírus constitui um elevado encargo de saúde pública.

Objectivo: Estimar o impacto económico e social da infecção por rotavírus.

Metodologia: Estudo retrospectivo dos dados referentes às crianças com amostra de fezes positiva para rotavírus, internadas em Enfermaria ou Observações-Serviço de Urgência, num hospital de nível 4, do Minho, em 2005. Aplicação de inquérito telefónico às famílias das crianças com diagnóstico de gastrenterite aguda (GEA) por rotavírus, a partir do qual se obtiveram dados relativos a aspectos socio-económicos.

Resultados: Foram positivos para rotavírus os exames virológicos de fezes de 63 crianças. Em 41, o diagnóstico principal foi GEA; estas famílias foram contactadas por telefone; seis não responderam ao inquérito. Neste grupo, a média ± desviopadrão de dias de internamento foi 3,4 ± 1,9 dias. A mediana (mínimo;máximo) de dias de trabalho perdidos pelas mães destas crianças foi de 7 dias (0 dias;21 dias); pelos pais 0 dias (0 dias;7 dias). Os internamentos por GEA por rotavírus custaram ao País 186 dias de trabalho. Relativamente a despesas em cuidados de saúde em ambulatório, a maioria (26) gastou menos de 150€ (doze famílias afirmaram ter gasto menos de
50€, duas entre 50€ e 100€, doze entre 100€ e 150€). Das 16 crianças que frequentavam infantário ou ama, constatou-se em sete a ocorrência de casos semelhantes nesse meio. Em onze casos verificou-se aparecimento de sintomatologia idêntica em familiares. Vinte e duas crianças com positividade para rotavírus nas fezes não foram internadas pelo diagnóstico de GEA. Deste grupo, 18 apresentaram sintomatologia mais de 72 horas após a admissão.

Comentários: Os internamentos com GEA por rotavírus conduzem a gastos de saúde consideráveis. Esta infecção deve, preferencialmente, ser tratada em ambulatório. O impacto económico e social foi importante. Este é o primeiro estudo português, de que temos conhecimento, com avaliação de custos associados à infecção por rotavírus.

description: The analysis of the photospheric velocity field is essential for understanding plasma turbulence in the solar surface, which may be responsible for driving processes such as magnetic reconnection, flares, wave propagation, particle acceleration, and coronal heating. Currently, the only available methods to estimate velocities at the solar photosphere transverse to an observer's line of sight infer flows from differences in image structure in successive observations. Due to data noise, algorithms such as local correlation tracking (LCT) may lead to a vector field with wide gaps where no velocity vectors are provided. In this letter, a novel method for image inpainting of highly corrupted data is proposed and applied to the restoration of horizontal velocity fields in the solar photosphere. The restored velocity field preserves all the vector field components present in the original field. The method shows robustness when applied to both simulated and observational data.

description: In the single-degenerate scenario of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), the interaction between high-speed ejected material and the donor star in a binary system is expected to lead to mass being stripped from the donor. A series of multi-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of ejecta-donor interaction have been performed in previous studies most of which adopt either a simplified analytical model or the W7 model to represent a normal SN Ia explosion. Whether different explosion mechanisms can significantly affect the results of ejecta-donor interaction is still unclear. In this work, we simulate hydrodynamical ejecta interactions with a main-sequence (MS) donor star in two dimensions for two near-Chandrasekhar-mass explosion models of SNe Ia, the W7 and N100 models. We find that about 0.30 and 0.37 Msun of hydrogen-rich material are stripped from a 2.5 Msun donor star in a 2 day orbit by the SN Ia explosion in simulations with the W7 deflagration and N100 delayed-detonation explosion model, respectively. The donor star receives a kick of about 74 and 86 km/s, respectively, in each case. The modal velocity, about 500 km/s, of stripped hydrogen-rich material in the N100 model is faster than the W7 model, with modal velocity of about 350km/s, by a factor 1.4. Based on our results, we conclude that the choice of near-Chandrasekhar-mass explosion model for normal SNe Ia seems to not significantly alter the ejecta-donor interaction for a given main-sequence donor model, at least in 2D.

Year: 2014

description: Introdução: Apesar de se reconhecer que a maior parte da dor experimentada pelo recém-nascido (RN) pode ser prevenida ou substancialmente aliviada, inúmeros estudos continuam a revelar um tratamento insuficiente.

Objectivos: Este estudo teve como objectivos determinar a prevalência e gravidade da dor sentida pelo RN submetido a cuidados intensivos e a efectividade das medidas preventivas e terapêuticas.

Material e métodos: Numa UCIN de um Hospital Universitário, estudaram-se 170 RN ao longo de um ano, de que resultaram 844 observações. Os dados foram colhidos por quatro enfermeiros, por observação do RN, entrevista a pais e enfermeiros prestadores de cuidados e análise retrospectiva seriada dos registos intermitentes efectuados no processo clínico. A Intensidade da dor foi medida através da escala Echelle Douleur et d’Inconfort du Nouveau-Né (EDIN).

Resultados: As 844 observações realizadas mostraram uma alta prevalência de dor (94,8%), com predomínio para a dor ligeira (72,7%). Em oito horas de observação, das 844 observações, 91,2% revelaram intervenções potencialmente dolorosas, cerca de 76,4% de prescrições feitas ad hoc e pouco mais de metade dos fármacos prescritos administrados. O arsenal terapêutico usado foi restrito, com destaque para o uso da morfina. As intervenções não farmacológicas foram utilizadas em 88,7% das observações, com evidência para os posicionamentos, massagens e técnicas de conforto. A prevalência da avaliação diária da intensidade da dor foi de 21,7% e a intensidade da dor não foi influenciada pela frequência da avaliação ou tratamento.

Conclusões: Um controlo adequado da dor exige a implementação de protocolos de avaliação e tratamento que: contemplem a avaliação da intensidade da dor como quinto sinal vital; os procedimentos dolorosos mais comuns; o uso de analgesia tópica; sacarose; e opióides (para além da morfina). Deve-se repensar a abolição das prescrições ad hoc e a utilização da picada capilar e orientar o tratamento com base na intensidade da dor.

description: Since February 2020, the world has been engaged in an intense struggle with the COVID-19 dis-ease, and health systems have come under tragic pressure as the disease turned into a pandemic. The aim of this study is to obtain the most effective routine blood values (RBV) in the diagnosis and prognosis of COVID-19 using a backward feature elimination algorithm for the LogNNet reservoir neural network. The first dataset in the study consists of a total of 5296 patients with the same number of negative and positive COVID-19 tests. The LogNNet-model achieved the accuracy rate of 99.5% in the diagnosis of the disease with 46 features and the accuracy of 99.17% with only mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, mean corpuscular hemoglobin, and activated partial prothrombin time. The second dataset consists of a total of 3899 patients with a diagnosis of COVID-19 who were treated in hospital, of which 203 were severe patients and 3696 were mild patients. The model reached the accuracy rate of 94.4% in determining the prognosis of the disease with 48 features and the accuracy of 82.7% with only erythrocyte sedimentation rate, neutrophil count, and C reactive protein features. Our method will reduce the negative pressures on the health sector and help doctors to understand the pathogenesis of COVID-19 using the key features. The method is promising to create mobile health monitoring systems in the Internet of Things.

description: This review discusses methods for learning parameters for image reconstruction problems using bilevel formulations. Image reconstruction typically involves optimizing a cost function to recover a vector of unknown variables that agrees with collected measurements and prior assumptions. State-of-the-art image reconstruction methods learn these prior assumptions from training data using various machine learning techniques, such as bilevel methods. One can view the bilevel problem as formalizing hyperparameter optimization, as bridging machine learning and cost function based optimization methods, or as a method to learn variables best suited to a specific task. More formally, bilevel problems attempt to minimize an upper-level loss function, where variables in the upper-level loss function are themselves minimizers of a lower-level cost function. This review contains a running example problem of learning tuning parameters and the coefficients for sparsifying filters used in a regularizer. Such filters generalize the popular total variation regularization method, and learned filters are closely related to convolutional neural networks approaches that are rapidly gaining in popularity. Here, the lower-level problem is to reconstruct an image using a regularizer with learned sparsifying filters; the corresponding upper-level optimization problem involves a measure of reconstructed image quality based on training data. This review discusses multiple perspectives to motivate the use of bilevel methods and to make them more easily accessible to different audiences. We then turn to ways to optimize the bilevel problem, providing pros and cons of the variety of proposed approaches. Finally we overview bilevel applications in image reconstruction.

description: HD49798/RX J0648.0-4418 is a peculiar binary including a hot subdwarf of O spectral type and a compact companion in a 1.55 day orbit. According to the steady spin period derivative $\dot{P}=(-2.17\pm0.01)\times10^{-15} ~\rm s\,s^{-1}$ , the compact object was thought to be a contracting young white dwarf (WD). However, the X-ray luminosity producing by the wind accretion of massive WD is one order of magnitude smaller than the observed value. In this work, we propose an alternative model to account for the observed X-ray luminosity. If the WD was surrounded by a debris disk, the accretion from the debris disk can produce the observed X-ray luminosity and X-ray pulses. Based on the time-varying accretion rate model, the current mass of the debris disk is constrained to be $3.9\times10^{-6}~\rm M_{\odot}$. Comparing with the contraction of the WD, the accretion torque exerting by such a debris disk can only influence the spin evolution of the WD in the early stage. According to the accretion theory, the magnetic field of the WD is constrained to be $\sim (0.7-7)\times10^{4}$ G. The calculated conventional polar cap radius of the WD is larger than the observed emitting-zone radius, which probably originate from the existence of strong and small-scale local magnetic field in the polar cap surface. We expect that further multiband observations on this source can help us to confirm or rule out the existence of a debris disk.

description: We aim to study the temporal and spectral behaviour of \vum from the optical to the X-ray regimes. We used archival \xmmn and \tes observations obtained in 2017 and 2019 to perform a spectral and timing analysis of the highly variable polar. The light curves of both satellites, TESS and XMM-Newton, reveal a double-humped pattern modulated with the periodicity of $91.058467 \pm 0.00001$ minutes. V496 UMa displays a two-pole accretion geometry in the high accretion state. X-ray spectra from both regions are composed of thermal plasma radiation and soft blackbody components with almost identical temperatures and a total accretion rate of $\dot{M}=1.4(8)\times10^{-11}$ M$_{\odot}$ yr$^{-1}$. The X-ray centers of the humps show longitudinal shifts of -18 and 4 degrees and -172 and -186 degrees size around photometric phase zero, for the main hump and second hump, respectively. The long-term ZTF light curves reveal high and low accretions states. Low-state ZTF and SDSS photometric data are consistent with an $0.8$ M$_{\odot}$ white dwarf at 10000 K and a main-sequence donor star with a spectral type of M5.0 at a \gai-determined distance of 758 pc. V496 UMa is a very bright polar in X-rays when it is in the high state. Due to its unusual geometric structure, mass accretion onto the second accretion pole is interrupted occasionally. This discontinuous behavior does not follow a certain pattern in time and is observed so far only in the high state. The X-ray light curves display clear evidence for an accretion stream at the photometric phase of $ϕ=$0.81, which does not show up in optical light curves. An accurate period was derived using the combined TESS and XMM-Newton data, which differs by 3.8 $σ$ from published results.

description: The effects of viscoelasticity have been shown to manifest themselves via symmetry breaking. In this investigation, we show a novel phenomenon that arises from this idea. We observe that when a dense sphere is rotated near a wall (the rotation being aligned with the wall-normal direction and gravity), it levitates to a fixed distance away from the wall. Since the shear is larger in the gap (between the sphere and the wall) than in the open side of the sphere, the shear-induced elastic stresses are thus asymmetric, resulting in a net elastic vertical force that balances the weight of the sphere. We conduct experiments, theoretic models, and numerical simulations for rotating spheres of various sizes and densities in a Boger-type fluid. In the small Deborah number range, the results are collapsed into a universal trend by considering a dimensionless group of the ratio of elastic to gravitational forces.

description: The singularities of serial robotic manipulators are those configurations in which the robot loses the ability to move in at least one direction. Hence, their identification is fundamental to enhance the performance of current control and motion planning strategies. While classical approaches entail the computation of the determinant of either a 6x n or nxn matrix for an n degrees of freedom serial robot, this work addresses a novel singularity identification method based on modelling the twists defined by the joint axes of the robot as vectors of the six-dimensional and three-dimensional geometric algebras. In particular, it consists of identifying which configurations cause the exterior product of these twists to vanish. In addition, since rotors represent rotations in geometric algebra, once these singularities have been identified, a distance function is defined in the configuration space C such that its restriction to the set of singular configurations S allows us to compute the distance of any configuration to a given singularity. This distance function is used to enhance how the singularities are handled in three different scenarios, namely motion planning, motion control and bilateral teleoperation.

description: We present a study of the filamentary structure in the atomic hydrogen (HI) emission at the 21 cm wavelength toward the Galactic plane using the observations in the HI4PI survey. Using the Hessian matrix method across radial velocity channels, we identified the filamentary structures and quantified their orientations using circular statistics. We found that the regions of the Milky Way's disk beyond 10 kpc and up to roughly 18 kpc from the Galactic center display HI filamentary structures predominantly parallel to the Galactic plane. For regions at lower Galactocentric radii, we found that the HI filaments are mostly perpendicular or do not have a preferred orientation with respect to the Galactic plane. We interpret these results as the imprint of supernova feedback in the inner Galaxy and Galactic rotation in the outer Milky Way. We found that the HI filamentary structures follow the Galactic warp and that they highlight some of the variations interpreted as the effect of the gravitational interaction with satellite galaxies. In addition, the mean scale height of the filamentary structures is lower than that sampled by the bulk of the HI emission, thus indicating that the cold and warm atomic hydrogen phases have different scale heights in the outer galaxy. Finally, we found that the fraction of the column density in HI filaments is almost constant up to approximately 18 kpc from the Galactic center. This is possibly a result of the roughly constant ratio between the cold and warm atomic hydrogen phases inferred from the HI absorption studies. Our results indicate that the HI filamentary structures provide insight into the dynamical processes shaping the Galactic disk. Their orientations record how and where the stellar energy input, the Galactic fountain process, the cosmic ray diffusion, and the gas accretion have molded the diffuse interstellar medium in the Galactic plane.

description: Signal classification problems arise in a wide variety of applications, and their demand is only expected to grow. In this paper, we focus on the wireless sensor network signal classification setting, where each sensor forwards quantized signals to a fusion center to be classified. Our primary goal is to train a decision function and quantizers across the sensors to maximize the classification performance in an online manner. Moreover, we are interested in sparse sensor selection using a marginalized weighted kernel approach to improve network resource efficiency by disabling less reliable sensors with minimal effect on classification performance.To achieve our goals, we develop a multi-sensor online kernel scalar quantization (MSOKSQ) learning strategy that operates on the sensor outputs at the fusion center. Our theoretical analysis reveals how the proposed algorithm affects the quantizers across the sensors. Additionally, we provide a convergence analysis of our online learning approach by studying its relationship to batch learning. We conduct numerical studies under different classification and sensor network settings which demonstrate the accuracy gains from optimizing different components of MSOKSQ and robustness to reduction in the number of sensors selected.
Calibration of Pixelated Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers

description: As part of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) near detector liquid argon prototyping program, four functionally-identical liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) modules sharing a common cryostat will operate in Fermilab’s NuMI beamline in late 2022 in what is known as the ArgonCube 2x2 Demonstrator. Like any LArTPC, calibration of these modules is essential to pin down detector effects that affect our ability to make accurate physics measurements. Calibration studies are of particular interest in the case of these LArTPCs, as each module employs a novel pixelated charge readout comprised of nearly eighty thousand pixels. The first two modules built for the 2x2 project initially operated at the University of Bern in multiple runs spanning 2021 and 2022 and produced large data sets of cosmic ray events. We present an analysis of these events and highlight calibration studies of electron lifetime, electric field distortions, charge timing resolution, and reconstruction of delta rays and Michel electrons in pixelated LArTPCs.
