description: We derive distance, density and metallicity distribution of the stellar Monoceros Overdensity (MO) in the outer Milky Way, based on deep imaging with the Subaru Telescope. We applied CMD fitting techniques in three stripes at galactic longitudes: l=130 deg, 150 deg, 170 deg; and galactic latitudes: +15 < b [deg] < +25 . The MO appears as a wall of stars at a heliocentric distance of ~ 10.1\pm0.5 kpc across the observed longitude range with no distance change. The MO stars are more metal rich ([Fe/H] ~ -1.0) than the nearby stars at the same latitude. These data are used to test three different models for the origin of the MO: a perturbed disc model, which predicts a significant drop in density adjacent to the MO that is not seen; a basic flared disc model, which can give a good match to the density profile but the MO metallicity implies the disc is too metal rich to source the MO stars; and a tidal stream model, which bracket the distances and densities we derive for the MO, suggesting that a model can be found that would fully fit the MO data. Further data and modeling will be required to confirm or rule out the MO feature as a stream or as a flaring of the disc.

description: Our paper analyses the relationship of tax compliance costs and business strategy. Due to instruments, like information technology, simplified cash accounting or outsourcing compliance activities to tax advisers, private businesses have a set of strategies to optimize their tax compliance cost burden. Under the assumption of rational choice a private business chooses a cost-optimal administration strategy. Nevertheless we find empirical evidence for small German businesses using only insufficiently the support of external tax advisers. Therefore a considerable number of small businesses in Germany would be able to reduce their compliance cost burden by a higher degree of outsourcing tax processes. By contrast we find no significant evidence for a cost reduction by an electronic data interchange with the tax and social insurance authorities or by a simplified cash accounting method for tax purposes. The insufficient use of external advice may be explained by bounded rationality arguments, like an overconfidence of the taxpayer as well as a cost perception deficit. An alternative motivation could be a mistrust of the taxpayer against an external tax adviser.

description: We explore the magnetic properties of the Fermi-like liquid represented by the D3-D7' system. The system exhibits interesting magnetic properties such as ferromagnetism and an anomalous Hall effect, which are due to the Chern-Simons term in the effective gravitational action. We investigate the spectrum of quasi-normal modes in the presence of a magnetic field and show that the magnetic field mitigates the instability towards a striped phase. In addition, we find a critical magnetic field above which the zero sound mode becomes massive.

description: The article aspires to show how physiognomy was used in late antique art in order to give substance to the theophanic dimension of a person, especially of a saint. Drawing on monumental art, sculpture, daily life objects and catacomb paintings or mosaics, it is possible to discern that the physiognomic features were used as iconographical attributes, which were adjusted depending on the context and of the degree of holiness of the person depicted (saints, deceased, patrons). Therefore, the article allows to follow the transition from portrait to 'icon' characterizing the late antique period.

description: We outline a procedure for combining six cross-sections of the German Sample Survey of Income and Expenditure, and discuss potential pitfalls of such a venture. Particularly, we investigate the consequences of a major break in the survey design for inter-temporal comparisons of expenditure categories: a reduction of the surveying period from twelve to three month taking place between the census years 1993 and 1998. We demonstrate that for several commodities a division-by-four of annually-surveyed expenses cannot guarantee inter-temporal comparability of expenditure distributions. We suggest and test the performance of several alternative conversion procedures. Suitability of conversion strategies hinges upon good-specific purchase properties.

description: This paper analyzes whether a corporate tax cut reduces profit shifting to low-tax countries. I use firm-level data of 2,812 German corporations around the Business Tax Reform in 2008. Applying a difference-in-differences framework with a one-on-one matching strategy, which compares earnings of multinational and domestic corporations, I do not find empirical evidence that even a 10 percentage points cut in the business tax rate leads to a reduction of profit shifting activities.

description: This paper shows the strategic aspects of international outsourcing in a duopolistic market. Due to different costs of integrated production and outsourcing, the choice of a firm influences the strategy of the competitor via the output price. Therefore, the resulting market constellation depends on the fixed costs and the difference between marginal costs. We show that the three market constellations, both firms produce integrated, both use outsourcing and the firms operate with different strategies are possible. Also the welfare effects of the different outcomes are analysed. If the optimal firms decision is characterized by different strategies, this constellations for given costs is pareto superior to a constellation with equal strategies. On the other hand, for given costs, a resulting constellation of equal strategies can be pareto inferior or pareto superior to a constellation with different strategies.

description: We reexamine the claim that the effect of income on subjective well-being suffers from a systematic downward bias if one ignores that higher income is typically associated with more work effort. We analyze this claim using German panel data, controlling for individual unobserved heterogeneity, and specifying the impact of working hours in a non-monotonic form. Our results suggest that the impact of working hours on happiness is rather small and exhibits an inverse U-shape. We do not find evidence that leaving working hours out of the analysis leads to an underestimation of the income effect.

description: Nitrate stable isotopes provide information about nitrate contamination and cycling by microbial processes. The Fischa-Dagnitz (Austria) spring and river system in the agricultural catchment of the Vienna basin shows minor annual variance in nitrate concentrations. We measured nitrate isotopes (δ15N, δ18O) in the source spring and river up to the confluence with the Danube River (2019–2020) with chemical and water isotopes to assess mixing and nitrate transformation processes. The Fischa-Dagnitz spring showed almost stable nitrate concentration (3.3 ± 1.0 mg/l as NO3–-N) year-round but surprisingly variable δ15N, δ18O-NO3– values ranging from +5.5 to +11.1‰ and from +0.5 to +8.1‰, respectively. The higher nitrate isotope values in summer were attributed to release of older denitrified water from the spring whose isotope signal was dampened downstream by mixing. A mixing model suggested denitrified groundwater contributed > 50 % of spring discharge at baseflow conditions. The isotopic composition of NO3– in the gaining streams was partly controlled by nitrification during autumn and winter months and assimilation during the growing season resulting in low and high δ15N-NO3– values, respectively. NO3– isotope variation helped disentangle denitrified groundwater inputs and biochemical cycling processes despite minor variation of NO3– concentration.

description: Stable water isotopes in ground-level vapour are key to estimating water exchange between geospheres. Their sampling, however, is limited to laser-absorption spectrometers and satellite observations, having inherent shortcomings. This study investigates diffusive kinetic fractionation during liquid condensation under supersaturated environment, providing a cost-effective, reliable way of sampling ground-level vapour isotopes (18O, 2H). Experiments were undertaken at three locations in India with ‘liquid’ samples collected from condensation of ambient air at 0°C. Simultaneously, pristine ‘vapour’ was sampled via cryogenic-trapping using liquid nitrogen–alcohol slush at –78°C. The ‘liquid’ condensed under supersaturation was progressively more depleted in 18O, and less enriched in 2H than expected under equilibrium fractionation, with an increasing degree of supersaturation expressed as saturation index (Si). This study revealed: (1) Si, molecular density, Rh, T together control the extent of isotopic kinetic fractionation. (2) The presence of diffusive concentration gradient inhibits the flow of heavier isotopes during liquid condensation. (3) The stochastic nature of the process cannot be explained using a physics-based model alone. The artificial neural network model is hence deployed to sample δ18O (δ 2H) within –0.24 ± 1.79‰ (0.53 ± 11.23 ‰) of true value. (4) The approach can be extended to ground-validate isotope-enabled general circulation models and satellite observations.

description: This paper shows the strategic aspects of international outsourcing in an oligopolistic market, if outsourcing is attractive because of fixed cost savings. We show that outsourcing decisions are strategic substitutes. Furthermore, we demonstrate that due to decreasing individual output, intensified competition increases the incentive to save fixed costs of integrated production and thus leads to more outsourcing. Additionally, we analyse how domestic costs and taxation affect the equilibrium level of outsourcing and employment. Here, we find that lower domestic costs decrease the proportion of outsourcing and therefore, increase employment. Concerning the impact of taxation, we find that a lower consumption tax on output decreases outsourcing. In case of a reversed outsourcing motivation, where outsourcing is associated with lower marginal costs but higher fixed costs than the domestic production, we show that the opposite effects concerning competition and taxation occur.

Subjects: python, astronomy, programming skills, inquiry,

description: Good programming practices are crucial for producing reliable and re-usable code, but are rarely taught in astronomy-based programming courses. Inquiry-based lessons are well-suited to teaching these practices, as they can give students the chance to try writing code---which may or may not conform to programming standards---and then explore what makes their code more efficient and comprehensible. We present one example of such a lesson, developed as part of the Institute for Scientist and Engineer Educators Professional Development Program (ISEE PDP).

description: We study the phenomenology of the pair-production of scalar color-octet electroweak singlet states at the LHC. Such states appear in many extensions of the Standard Model. They can be pair-produced copiously at the LHC and will signal themselves as resonances in multijet final states. Beyond the QCD pair-production process we consider a vectorlike confinement scenario with an additional color-octet vector state. These vector particles can be produced in the s-channel and through their decay contribute to the scalar pair production. We point out the differences between the two hypotheses and device a strategy to distinguish them.

description: This paper sheds new light on herding of institutional investors by using a unique database that identifies every transaction made by financial institutions in the German stock market. First, the analysis reveals that herding behavior of insti- tutions occurs daily. Second, replication of the analysis with low-frequency and anonymous transaction data indicates that previous studies overestimate herding. Third, our results suggest that herding by large financial institutions mainly re- sults from shared preference and investment styles. Fourth, a panel analysis shows that herding on the sell side in stocks is positively related to past returns and past volatility, whereas herding on the buy side is negatively related to these variables. Hence, large financial institutions do not demonstrate positive feedback strategies.

After examining the rules in place and the experience so far, the Pact is analysed from a political economy perspective, focusing on the choice for so-called soft law and drawing inferences from characteristics of successful fiscal rules at the state level in the United States. It is also examined whether big and small countries are likely to adhere to fiscal policy rules in place. Furthermore, the impact of the business cycle on fiscal policy outcomes is analysed. Finally, the proposals of the European Commission to strengthen the Pact are discussed.

Year: 2015

description: The paper presents reflections on the specificity of collections and museums of contemporary art in Central Europe and considers a possibility of creating a regional alternative for the West. The analysis is conducted in the context of the expansionist policy of contemporary museums – notably the Louvre, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the Hermitage – whose numerous new development projects gave rise to a number of dilemmas in the museological world. The author discusses global "museum brands" that invest in Central Europe and addresses the possible profits of the expansion of such "concerns" for culture in the region, as well as emphasises the potential of the region itself, which may be used for its development without the avail of the internationally renowned collectors' names.

Konsolidierung der Staatsfinanzen

Subjects: subject: 300 Sozialwissenschaften::330 Wirtschaft::336 Öffentliche Finanzen

description: Die Konsolidierung der Staatsfinanzen nach der gegenwärtigen Finanz- und Wirtschaftskrise wird eines der zentralen wirtschaftspolitischen Themen der nächsten Jahre sein: Die Regelungen zur „Schuldenbremse“ sehen für den Bundeshaushalt bis 2016 einen annähernd ausgeglichenen Haushalt vor, und auch die Länderhaushalte sollen bis 2020 weitgehend konsolidiert werden. Dadurch ergibt sich ein erheblicher Konsolidierungsbedarf der öffentlichen Haushalte, der sich bei realistischen Annahmen über das strukturelle Defizit im Ausgangsjahr 2010 und die zu erwartende langfristige gesamtwirtschaftliche Wachstumsrate bis 2016 auf knapp 80 Mrd. Euro summiert. Bei einem Ausgleich der kalten Progression durch eine Tarifanpassung bei der Einkommensteuer, wie in der Koalitionsvereinbarung der Regierungsparteien vorgesehen, würde der Konsolidierungsbedarf bis 2016 auf deutlich über 100 Mrd. Euro zunehmen. Damit verbunden wäre ein erheblicher Anstieg der Staatsverschuldung auf deutlich über 80% des BIP. Aber auch bei einer erfolgreichen Konsolidierung würde die Staatsverschuldung in 2016 noch ca. 75% des BIP betragen. Vor dem Hintergrund der demografischen Entwicklung, die längerfristig mit einem erheblichen Anstieg der Staatsausgaben verbunden sein wird, erscheint die Konsolidierung der Staatsfinanzen geboten. Der Konsolidierungsbedarf sollte nach der Krise vor allem über die Ausgabenseite realisiert werden. Wahrscheinlich werden aber die politisch realisierbaren Ausgabenkürzungen alleine nicht ausreichen, Steuer- und Abgabenerhöhungen werden ergänzend erforderlich sein. Erhöhungen der indirekten und vermögensbezogenen Steuern sind ökonomisch weniger schädlich als die der direkten Steuern und der Sozialabgaben. Die Spielräume für Steuerentlastungen sind gering; der Ausgleich der kalten Progression bei der Einkommensteuer ist wünschenswert, müsste aber gegenfinanziert werden.

description: Creative services have become an important, but understudied, part of global trade. This paper presents new evidence on the transformation, geography and industrial relatedness of creative service exports in the UK, using the Inquiry in International Trade in Services (ITIS) database. Creative services exports have grown over the past decade, but there are pronounced patterns of geographical specialization in the export of creative and non-creative services. We develop a measure of relatedness between exports of creative and non-creative services and of manufacturing goods. We argue that creative services are economically significant because of their interrelationship with other local sectors.

Nitrogen line spectroscopy of O-stars -- I. Nitrogen III emission line formation revisited

description: This is the first paper in a series dealing with optical Nitrogen spectroscopy of O-type stars, aiming at the analysis of Nitrogen abundances. We implemented a new Nitrogen model atom into the NLTE atmosphere/spectrum synthesis code FASTWIND, and compare the resulting optical NIII lines at 4634/40/42 A with other predictions, mostly from Mihalas & Hummer (1973, ApJ 179, 827,`MH'), and from the alternative code CMFGEN. Using similar model atmospheres as MH (not blanketed and wind-free), we are able to reproduce their results, in particular the triplet emission lines. According to MH, these should be strongly related to dielectronic recombination (DR) and the drain by certain two-electron transitions. However, using realistic, fully line-blanketed atmospheres at solar abundances, the key role of DR controlling these emission features is superseded -- for O-star conditions -- by the strength of the stellar wind and metallicity. In the case of wind-free models, the resulting lower ionizing EUV-fluxes severely suppress the emission. As the mass-loss rate is increased, pumping through the NIII resonance line(s) in the presence of a near-photospheric velocity field results in a net optical triplet line emission. A comparison with results from CMFGEN is mostly satisfactory, except for the range 30 kK < Teff < 35 kK, where CMFGEN triggers the triplet emission at lower Teff than FASTWIND. This effect could be traced down to line overlap effects between the NIII and OIII resonance lines that so far cannot be simulated by FASTWIND. Since the efficiency of DR and `two electron drain' strongly depends on the degree of line-blanketing/-blocking, we predict the emission to become stronger in a metal-poor environment, though lower wind-strengths and Nitrogen abundances might counteract this effect. Weak winded stars should display less triplet emission than stars with `normal' winds.

description: The European Space Agency's Rosetta spacecraft passed by the main belt asteroid (21) Lutetia the 10th July 2010. With its ~100km size, Lutetia is one of the largest asteroids ever imaged by a spacecraft. During the flyby, the on-board OSIRIS imaging system acquired spectacular images of Lutetia's northern hemisphere revealing a complex surface scarred by numerous impact craters, reaching the maximum dimension of about 55km. In this paper, we assess the cratering history of the asteroid. For this purpose, we apply current models describing the formation and evolution of main belt asteroids, that provide the rate and velocity distributions of impactors. These models, coupled with appropriate crater scaling laws, allow us to interpret the observed crater size-frequency distribution (SFD) and constrain the cratering history. Thanks to this approach, we derive the crater retention age of several regions on Lutetia, namely the time lapsed since their formation or global surface reset. We also investigate the influence of various factors -like Lutetia's bulk structure and crater obliteration- on the observed crater SFDs and the estimated surface ages. From our analysis, it emerges that Lutetia underwent a complex collisional evolution, involving major local resurfacing events till recent times. The difference in crater density between the youngest and oldest recognized units implies a difference in age of more than a factor of 10. The youngest unit (Beatica) has an estimated age of tens to hundreds of Myr, while the oldest one (Achaia) formed during a period when the bombardment of asteroids was more intense than the current one, presumably around 3.6Gyr ago or older.

description: Stable water isotopes in ground-level vapour are key to estimating water exchange between geospheres. Their sampling, however, is limited to laser-absorption spectrometers and satellite observations, having inherent shortcomings. This study investigates diffusive kinetic fractionation during liquid condensation under supersaturated environment, providing a cost-effective, reliable way of sampling ground-level vapour isotopes (18O, 2H). Experiments were undertaken at three locations in India with ‘liquid’ samples collected from condensation of ambient air at 0°C. Simultaneously, pristine ‘vapour’ was sampled via cryogenic-trapping using liquid nitrogen–alcohol slush at –78°C. The ‘liquid’ condensed under supersaturation was progressively more depleted in 18O, and less enriched in 2H than expected under equilibrium fractionation, with an increasing degree of supersaturation expressed as saturation index (Si). This study revealed: (1) Si, molecular density, Rh, T together control the extent of isotopic kinetic fractionation. (2) The presence of diffusive concentration gradient inhibits the flow of heavier isotopes during liquid condensation. (3) The stochastic nature of the process cannot be explained using a physics-based model alone. The artificial neural network model is hence deployed to sample δ18O (δ 2H) within –0.24 ± 1.79‰ (0.53 ± 11.23 ‰) of true value. (4) The approach can be extended to ground-validate isotope-enabled general circulation models and satellite observations.

description: Η εργασία σκοπεύει να σκιαγραφήσει τα ποιοτικά χαρακτηριστικά της πολιτικής δραστηριοποίησης των γυναικών στην μεταπολεμική Ελλάδα και εξειδικεύεται στην περίπτωση των γυναικών της δεξιάς παράταξης. Ως βασικός άξονας ανάλυσης επιλέχθηκε η παραχώρηση των πολιτικών δικαιωμάτων στον γυναικείο πληθυσμό. Αρχικά, εξετάζονται η νομική διαδικασία παραχώρησης της ισοπολιτείας από το μετεμφυλιακό ελληνικό κράτος, και οι πολιτικές στάσεις που εκδηλώθηκαν απέναντι στο ενδεχόμενο της τελευταίας. Έπειτα, σκιαγραφείται η ύπαρξη ενός δημοσίου χώρου, ο οποίος αναλάμβανε σημαντικό μέρος της μεταπολεμικής άσκησης της κοινωνικής πρόνοιας μέσα από τον οποίο οι γυναίκες, που επιλέχθηκαν ως περιπτώσεις μελέτης, αναδείχθηκαν. Στην συνέχεια, εξετάστηκε η είσοδος των γυναικών στον έως τότε ανδροκρατούμενο πολιτικό στίβο. Περιεγράφηκαν η προεκλογική κινητοποίηση τους, η κοινοβουλευτική δραστηριότητά τους και αναλύθηκαν τα λεγόμενα «γυναικεία» ζητήματα, τα οποία αποτέλεσαν τον προνομιακό και έμφυλα οριοθετημένο χώρο δημόσιας παρέμβασης των συγκεκριμένων γυναικών, και ο τρόπος με τον οποίο αυτά αναδιαμορφώθηκαν μέχρι και την ανατροπή της μεταπολεμικής δημοκρατίας.
description: The aim of this thesis is to illustrate the qualitative characteristics of womens' political activity in postwar Greece and it is specialized in the case of right-wing women. The granting of political rights to the female population was chosen as the main axes of analysis. The postwar Greek state's legal process of granting political equality, and the political stances expressed towards such a potential are examined first. Subsequently, the existence of a particular public sphere is described. This sphere exercised a significant part of social welfare, and it was within this sphere that the women chosen here as case studies were distinguished. Further on, womens' entrance in the, thus far male-dominated, political arena is examined. Their electoral campaigns and their parliamentary activity are sketched out. The so-called “womens' issues” are analyzed, constituting the privileged and gender-defined space of public intervention for the particular women examined. The way “womens' issues” were rearticulated is also analyzed, up until when the post-war republic was overthrown.

description: We analyze the impact of changing employment patterns and pension reforms on the future level of public pensions across birth cohorts in Germany. The analysis is based on a rich dataset that combines household survey data from the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP) and process-produced microdata from the German pension insurance. A microsimulation model is developed which accounts for cohort effects in individual employment and unemployment and earnings over the lifecycle as well as the differential impact of recent pension reforms. Cohort effects for individuals born between 1937 and 1971 vary greatly by region, gender and education and strongly affect lifecycle wage profiles. The largest effects can be observed for younger cohorts in East Germany and for the low educated. Using simulated life cycle employment and income profiles, we project gross future pensions across cohorts taking into account changing demographics and recent pension reforms. Simulations show that pension levels for East German men and women will fall dramatically among younger birth cohorts, not only because of policy reforms but due to higher cumulated unemployment. For West German men, the small reduction of average pension levels among younger birth cohorts is mainly driven by the impact of pension reforms, while future pension levels of West German women are increasing or stable due to rising labor market participation of younger birth cohorts.

description: In the study of open quantum systems, the polaron transformation has recently attracted a renewed interest as it offers the possibility to explore the strong system-bath coupling regime. Despite this interest, a clear and unambiguous analysis of the regimes of validity of the polaron transformation is still lacking. Here we provide such a benchmark, comparing second order perturbation theory results in the original untransformed frame, the polaron frame and the variational extension with numerically exact path integral calculations of the equilibrium reduced density matrix. Equilibrium quantities allow a direct comparison of the three methods without invoking any further approximations as is usually required in deriving master equations. It is found that the second order results in the original frame are accurate for weak system-bath coupling, the full polaron results are accurate in the opposite regime of strong coupling, and the variational method is capable of interpolating between these two extremes. As the bath becomes more non-Markovian (slow bath), all three approaches become less accurate.

description: Today, despite apparent benefits achievable through locating business processes and data in cloudbased systems, distributed cloud computing raises many security and dependability concerns. This is caused by the increased complexity of such systems and the lack of interoperability between heterogeneous, often proprietary infrastructure technologies. SUPERCLOUD thus proposes new security and dependability infrastructure management paradigms that are : 1) user-centric, enabling self-service clouds-of-clouds where customers define their own protection requirements and can avoid technology and vendor lock-ins; and 2) self-managed, for self-protecting clouds-of-clouds that reduce their administration complexity through automation techniques. This document presents the high-level architectural framework of the SUPERCLOUD system. We define the actor roles of SUPERCLOUD users and cloud service providers (CSPs) whose services are used to compose ensembles of computation, data storage and data communication services, on which users can run desired computations and store data. We refer to such user-specific ensembles of computational, data and networking services as U-Clouds. The SUPERCLOUD architecture consists of three abstraction planes: the compute plane, the data plane and the networking plane. The purpose of each of these planes is to provide abstractions of computation, data storage and data communications services used by execution environments that SUPERCLOUD users run on the SUPERCLOUD infrastructure. A background study is presented which shows the relevant state-of-the-art literature in areas that are central to the technical implementation of SUPERCLOUD. These include works on virtualization and self-management architectures, cloud data management and network virtualization architectures. We present the common requirements for the SUPERCLOUD architecture derived from use cases related to healthcare that will be developed in WP5. As such use cases represent the highest standard for requirements regarding the privacy of data in civilian applications, we can make sure that solutions developed in SUPERCLOUD will have sufficient means for protection of data privacy also in most other application areas. Another important aspect of the SUPERCLOUD architecture addressed in this document is the notion of security  self-management. The SUPERCLOUD architecture provides a security management framework that connects to each sub-architecture and provides facilities allowing each SUPERCLOUD user to adapt fine-grained, user-specific security settings for data, computation and communications inside her own U-Cloud.

description: This paper explores the dynamics between design and technological change for regional innovation. We discuss a framework integrating persistence effects and processes of knowledge recombination that explicitly recognize the role of design as a separated yet synergic element to technological change within the context of regional innovation systems. Using a panel vector autoregressive (PVAR) approach and information on over 900 NUTS-3 regions across 20 countries in Europe for the period 2000–12, we provide novel evidence of evolutionary dynamics for both design and technological change along with simultaneous complementarities expanding the set of combinatorial opportunities for regional innovation.
