description: Optimal frequency identification in astronomical datasets is crucial for variable star studies, exoplanet detection, and asteroseismology. Traditional period-finding methods often rely on specific parametric assumptions, employ binning procedures, or overlook the regression nature of the problem, limiting their applicability and precision. We aim to introduce a universal, nonparametric kernel regression method for optimal frequency determination that is generalizable, efficient, and robust across various astronomical data types. FINKER uses nonparametric kernel regression on folded datasets at different frequencies, selecting the optimal frequency by minimizing squared residuals. This technique inherently incorporates a weighting system that accounts for measurement uncertainties and facilitates multiband data analysis. We evaluate our method's performance across a range of frequencies pertinent to diverse data types and compare it with an established period-finding algorithm, conditional entropy. The method demonstrates superior performance in accuracy and robustness compared to existing algorithms, requiring fewer observations to identify significant frequencies reliably. It exhibits resilience against noise and adapts well to datasets with varying complexity.

description: The physical parameters of the sunspot are not fully understood, especially the height dependence of the magnetic field. So far, it is also an open question as to which heights the He I 1083 nm spectral line is formed at. Our aim is to investigate the magnetic and dynamical properties in the atmosphere above a sunspot, from the photosphere to the chromosphere. We analyzed the photospheric and chromospheric magnetic field properties of a stable sunspot in AR 12553 on June 20, 2016 using spectropolarimetric observations obtained with GRIS at GREGOR. A spectral-line inversion technique was used to infer the magnetic field vector and Doppler velocities from the full Stokes profiles. In total, three spectral lines were inverted and the variation of the magnetic properties was qualified using the average values of the radial circles. The sunspot is located close to the solar limb, and thus this allows us to make a geometrical determination of the height of the spectral line He I 1083 nm. We find the height of helium spectral line to be 970 km above the photospheric spectral lines directly from observation at a stable sunspot. The total magnetic field strength decreases with height over the sunspot; the rates are -0.34 G/km for the umbra and -0.28 G/km for the penumbra. The inclination increases with increasing height in the umbra, but decreases in the penumbra. In the umbra, the vertical component ($B_z$) decreases with height, while the horizontal component ($B_{hor}$) remains almost constant. In the penumbra this is reversed, as $B_z$ remains nearly constant over height, while $B_{hor}$ decreases. We also observe fast velocities with 30 km/s in small chromospheric patches on the central side of the spot. The key parameters depending on height in the sunspot are the $B_{z}$ component of the magnetic field for the umbra and the $B_{hor}$ component of the magnetic field for the penumbra.

Resonant Cavities for the Project 8 Neutrino Mass Experiment
Creators: name: Stachurska, Juliana
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Project 8 is a next-generation direct neutrino mass experiment with targeted sensitivity of 40 meV. Having established a new measuring technique, Cyclotron Radiation Electron Spectroscopy (CRES), the next phase will demonstrate CRES on a large volume, culminating in a first CRES experiment with atomic tritium gas. One of the possibilities studied involves a mode-filtered resonant cavity in which trapped electrons can only couple to a single mode. We will show studies of mode-filtered resonant cavities and the design of a small scale cavity CRES demonstrator. We will also show the concept for the first neutrino mass measurement on atomic tritium using the mode-filtered resonant cavity and a magneto-gravitational atom trap.

description: This paper is the third in a series on submillimeter galaxy magnification bias, focusing on the tomographic scenario. It refines the methodology used to constrain the halo occupation distribution model and cosmological parameters within a flat $Λ$CDM model, using updated data. The study aims to optimize CPU time, explore strategies for analyzing different redshift bins, and assess the impact of excluding the GAMA15 field. The tomographic approach involves dividing the redshift range into bins and analyzing cross-correlation measurements between submillimeter and foreground galaxies. The results show good agreement between the mean-redshift and full model cases, with an increase in the minimum mass of lenses at higher redshifts. The inferred cosmological parameters have narrower posterior distributions, indicating reduced measurement uncertainties compared to previous studies. Excluding the GAMA15 field reduces the cross-correlation signal, suggesting sample variance within the large-scale structure. Extending the redshift range improves robustness against sample variance and produces similar but tighter constraints. The study highlights the importance of sample variance and redshift binning in tomographic analyses, and suggests using additional wide-area fields and updated foreground catalogues for more effective implementation.

The DUNE Neutrino PRISM
Creators: name: Hasnip, Ciaran
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: The DUNE (Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment) is a next-generation neutrino experiment designed to make precision oscillation measurements in a 1.2-2.4 MW neutrino beam, which is directed from Fermilab to the Sandford Underground Research Facility in South Dakota. The PRISM (Precision Reaction Independent Spectrum Measurement) concept presents a novel way to perform a neutrino oscillation analysis, which has the potential to significantly reduce the impact of neutrino cross-section systematic uncertainties in DUNE. The PRISM method linearly combines measurements of off-axis neutrino interactions at the DUNE near detector to produce data-driven predictions of the oscillated neutrino event rate spectrum at the far detector. By building an oscillated far detector prediction directly from data, any unknown or poorly modelled neutrino cross-section effects will be naturally incorporated into the measurement of the parameters of the neutrino oscillation model. This poster will give an overview of PRISM and how it is used in DUNE.
title: Beteiligte Stakeholder am nationalen Katastrophenmanagement anhand der Beispiele Deutschland und Schweiz
Creators: name: Kirchpfening, Leander

description: Die Erde und ihre Bevölkerung sind ständig bedroht von Katastrophen unterschiedlichsten Ursprungs. Um auf Katastrophen gut vorbereitet zu sein, muss kontinuierlich an Plänen zur Sicherstellung des Wohlergehens der Bevölkerung gearbeitet werden. Entscheidungsträger benötigen ein umfangreiches und detailliertes Wissen über Zusammenhänge und Beteiligte, um effiziente Maßnahmen ergreifen zu können. Aus diesem Grund beschäftigt sich diese Ar- beit mit den Beteiligten am Notfall-Management-Prozess. Besonderer Fokus wird dabei auf die Akteure der nationalen Ebene der beiden Länder Deutschland und Schweiz gelegt. Die dieser Arbeit zugrundeliegende und nun überarbeitete Kategorisierung in core responders, Non-Core responders und Co-Operating bodies stammt aus dem FP7-Projekt Securing Health.Emergency.Learning.Planning (S-HELP) der Europäischen Union an der Universität Wien unter der Leitung von ao. Univ.-Prof. Dr. Marion Rauner. Die Untersuchung der Länder zeigte, dass sowohl Deutschland als auch die Schweiz über ausgeprägte Katastrophenhilfest- rukturen verfügen. Managementprozesse und Stakeholder sind in Deutschland unter anderem wegen dem Größenunterschied zur Schweiz etwas unübersichtlicher. Bei beiden Ländern be- findet sich der Bereich Cyber Security derzeit noch in der Entwicklungsphase.
description: Earth and it ́s population are constantly threatened by disasters of all kinds. To be well pre- pared, it is from utmost importance to work continuously on strategies to guarantee the well being of the population. Decision makers need substantial knowledge of relations and stake- holders to take efficient measures. For this reason, this master thesis addresses the stakehold- ers involved in the emergency management process by focusing on the national level of the two countries Germany and Switzerland. The underlying and in this thesis slightly revised categorisation of core responders, Non-Core responders, and Co-Operating bodies is based on the Securing Health.Emergency.Learning.Planning (S-HELP) European fp7-Project at the University of Vienna under the supervision of ao. Univ.-Prof. Dr. Marion Rauner. The analy- sis showed, that Germany and Switzerland both have distinctive disaster management struc- tures. Not only due to the size difference, management processes and stakeholders are slightly more complex in Germany than in Switzerland. In both countries, the field of cyber security is still under development.

description: Die integrierte Quantenoptik ist ein aufstrebendes Forschungsfeld, welches unsere Gesellschaft revolutionieren wird, indem sie bisher unerreichbare Anwendungen ermöglicht. Die Basis für viele quantenoptischen Anwendungen bilden integrierte Bauelemente. In dieser Dissertation wurden die Technologien entwickelt, die notwendig sind photonische Quantenzustände zu erzeugen und hohe Integrationsdichten von Komponenten zu ermöglichen. Diese Arbeit konzentriert sich auf neuartige Entwicklungen zur Realisierung von periodisch gepolten Wellenleitern in zwei Materialsystemen, Kaliumtitanylphosphat (KTP) und Lithiumniobat auf einem Isolator (LNOI). Beide Materialien zeichnen sich durch einzigartige Dispersionseigenschaften aus, die hohe Integrationsdichten und Photonenpaarquellen ermöglichen. Jedoch ist die Herstellung dieser Bauteile herausfordernd. Es wurden detaillierte Untersuchungen zum Polungsverhalten und Wellenleitern in KTP durchgeführt, wodurch nun periodisch gepolter Wellenleiter in KTP verlässlich hergestellt werden können. Darüber hinaus wird die Entwicklung von Herstellungstechniken von periodisch gepolten Wellenleitern in LNOI gezeigt. Unter Verwendung der neuen Technologien wurden Bauelemente in beiden Materialien hergestellt und nichtlinear optisch charakterisiert, wodurch die gewünschten Funktionalitäten nachgewiesen wurden. Diese Arbeit stellt die Grundlagen zur Herstellung von quantenoptischen Bauelementen in KTP und LNOI dar.
description: Integrated quantum optics is an emerging research field with the potential to revolutionise our society by providing previously unattainable applications. Integrated devices serve as the foundation for many quantum optical applications. In this thesis, we investigate the fabrication technologies for nonlinear integrated devices, which are essential to generate photonic quantum states. This research focuses on novel developments on two material systems for realising periodically poled waveguides in potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) and lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI). Both materials have unique dispersions properties that allow for high integration densities and photon pair generation. However, the fabrication of these devices is challenging. Detailed investigations of the periodic poling behaviour and waveguides in KTP were conducted, resulting in a reliably established technology to fabricate periodically poled waveguides in KTP. Furthermore, this thesis shows the development of fabrication techniques for periodically poled waveguides in LNOI. Using these new technology approaches devices from both materials were fabricated and nonlinear optically characterised, demonstrating the desired functionality. This work lays the foundation for the fabrication of quantum optical devices in KTP and LNOI.

AIM: To examine whether baseline periodontal disease is independently associated with incident prediabetes and incident diabetes in Hispanics/Latinos in the United States. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study examined 7827 individuals, 18-74 years of age without diabetes, from the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos. Participants received a full-mouth periodontal examination at baseline (2008-2011), and the disease was classified using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/American Academy of Periodontology case definitions. At Visit 2 (2014-2017), incident prediabetes and diabetes were assessed using multiple standard procedures including blood tests. Multivariable survey Poisson regressions estimated the rate ratio (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of incident prediabetes and incident diabetes associated with periodontal disease severity. RESULTS: Among the individuals without prediabetes or diabetes at baseline, 38.8% (n = 1553) had developed prediabetes and 2.2% (n = 87) had developed diabetes after 6 years. Nineteen percent (n = 727) of individuals with prediabetes at baseline developed diabetes after 6 years. Adjusting for all potential confounders, no significant association was found between periodontal disease severity and either incident prediabetes (RR: 0.93; 95% CI: 0.82-1.06) or incident diabetes (RR: 0.99; 95% CI: 0.80-1.22). CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that among a diverse cohort of Hispanic/Latino individuals living in the United States, there was no association between periodontal disease severity and the development of either prediabetes or diabetes during a 6-year follow-up period.

title: Die vielen "Hände" des Simon Bening
Creators: name: Prasek, Friedrich
Year: 2017

description: Der bisher nicht eingehend untersuchte »Hortulus animae«, (Codex 2706 der Österreichischen Nationalbibliothek) erweist sich als Schlüsselwerk in der Entwicklung des noch jungen Miniators und Werkstättenleiters Simon Bening. Der Name „Simon Bening“ dient als Projektionsfläche für etwa 50 zugeschriebene Manuskripte. Sind unterschiedliche Stillagen einer Miniatorenpersönlichkeit innerhalb kürzester Zeitspannen denkbar? Am Exempel des »Hortulus« wird die Eigenleistung des Miniators Simon Bening untersucht. Im Anschluss stellt sich die Frage, wo der Miniator in seinem akkumulierten zugeschriebenen Werk faßbar wird. Die Zusammenarbeit innerhalb eines Miniatorenteams auch an einem Blatt, an einer Miniatur stehen im Fokus dieser Untersuchung. In Simon Benings Werk spiegelt sich der Wandel vom Aggregatraum zum perspektivischen Systemraum und der damit verbundene Wandel von Erzählstrategien. Das Wiener Manuskript ist ein auf hohem Niveau aus einem reichen Mustervorrat generiertes Produkt. Es enthält aber auch Miniature , die den Rahmen des Werkstattüblichen sprengen und die Erzähltechniken und –Möglichkeiten eines Blattes neu formulieren. Das an Quellen arme Forschungsgebiet der Buchmalerei um 1500 gewinnt in dieser Arbeit seine Erkenntnisse aus weit gespannten dia- und synchonen Vergleichsreihen aus dem in 40 Jahren entstandenen Werk Simon Benings. Die materielle Basis für den »Hortulus« wird durch vergleichende IR-Reflektographie über knapp ein Viertel des Bestandes an Miniaturen verbreitert. Fragen der Eigenhändigkeit werden mit stilkritischen Methoden behandelt, in jedem Fall ist das konkrete Objekt Ausgangspunkt und Referenz für die Beurteilung. Mit der Datierung knapp vor 1515 (und damit vor das Da Costa Stundenbuch und das Breviarium Grimani) kann das private Andachtsbuch als früher Beleg für die Erweiterung der bildsprachlichen Fähigkeiten des Miniators Bening vor dem Hintergrund der Werkstattpraxis der „Ghent Associates“ eingeordnet werden. --- [Printausgabe in 2 Bänden]

SNO+ Calibration in Scintillator Phase
Creators: name: Yi-Hsuan Lin
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: The SNO+ experiment is a multi-purpose neutrino detector located 2 km underground at SNOLAB in Vale’s Creighton Mine in Sudbury, Ontario. The centerpiece of SNO+ is a 12-m diameter acrylic vessel (AV), containing the target medium. The AV is surrounded by 7 kilotonnes of external ultrapure water shielding and about 9400 photomultiplier tubes. SNO+ is operating in three phases, defined by the target medium: water, scintillator, and scintillator loaded with tellurium. The physics program at SNO+ includes solar neutrino measurements, antineutrino detection, supernova neutrino monitoring, and the main physics goal: neutrinoless double beta decay search. All of these physics analyses require precise measurements of the detector’s optical and timing responses using known sources to establish constraints on the energy and position reconstruction within the detector. In its water phase, SNO+ calibrated using optical and radioactive sources developed for its predecessor, the SNO experiment, and these calibrations provide external background measurements and baseline calibration constants for the detector. The radioactive sources include the 16N and AmBe sources. The tagged 6.13 MeV γs of the 16N source provided a clean calibration sample in the energy region of interest for both the 8B solar neutrinos measurement and the invisible nucleon decay search during the water phase. Currently in the scintillator phase, some of these sources have been leveraged to provide calibration information of the scintillator from outside of the AV. These calibrations allow for measurement of the internal background and validation of the external background measured in the water phase. These calibration results will be presented. New calibration deployment systems and sources are in development to allow for calibration in the scintillator inside the AV. The status of these developments will be described. The findings from both internal and external calibrations will inform the SNO+ physics analyses.

Es wird versucht, ausgehend von praktischen Supervisionserfahrungen, zu ergründen, welche psychodynamischen Phänomene wirksam sind. Der Theorieteil behandelt Übertragungs- und Gegenübertragungsgeschehen, Widerstand und Abwehr. Es werden Einblicke in die konkrete Supervisionsarbeit im Arbeitsfeld gegeben. Geflohene Menschen leiden häufig an Traumafolgestörungen. Wie Traumatisierungen entstehen und welche Auswirkungen diese auf Helferinnen haben, wird erörtert. Im empirischen Teil werden die Ergebnisse von Interviews mit Expertinnen und Erkenntnisse aus einem Praktikerinnen-Workshop zusammengefasst. Die Supervisorinnen nehmen Stellung, wie Supervision in Projekten mit geflohenen Menschen erlebt wird und welche Besonderheiten sich zeigen. Wesentliche Erkenntnisse dieser Arbeit sind: Die gesellschaftspolitische Relevanz des Themas macht es unüberschaubar und vielschichtig und erfordert möglicherweise einen neuen Zugang zur Supervision. Stabile Organisationsstrukturen, Professionalisierung, multiprofessionelle Teams und Zeit für Reflexion helfen, die Qualität der Arbeit zu sichern sowie die körperliche und psychische Gesundheit der Beschäftigten zu erhalten.
description: This master thesis deals with the characteristics of supervision in the field of refugee relief, a relatively recent field of work. Starting with personal experience in this field, relevant psychodynamic phenomena are discussed. The theory section covers transference and countertransference dynamics, resistance and repression. Practical supervision experience in the specific field is described. Refugees frequently suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder. It is discussed how these disorders develop and how they affect those working with these clients. The empirical section summarizes the findings of expert interviews and the results of a workshop with supervisors working with refugee aid workers. The interviewees discuss their experience and the particular features of refugee projects. Key findings are: The complexity of the subject is increased by its socio-political topicality which possibly demands an innovative approach to supervision. Stable organisational structures, high professional standards, multi-professional teams and sufficient time for reflection ensure a high quality of work and sustain the physical and mental well-being of the employees.

title: Einführung in die Programmierung anhand der visuellen Programmiersprache Scratch
Creators: name: Leutgeb, Rene
Year: 2017

description: Textbasierte Programmiersprachen wie Python, Java oder C++ bieten ein breites Spektrum an Möglichkeiten, um Schülerinnen und Schülern in die Welt der Programmierung einzuführen. Diese Möglichkeiten bringen jedoch auch Grenzen mit sich. Aufgrund der Komplexität von textbasierten Programmiersprachen ist es ohne Programmiervorkenntnisse relativ anspruchsvoll, die Konzepte der Programmierung zu verstehen und anwenden zu können. Diese Problematik kann auf Schülerinnen und Schüler sehr demotivierend einwirken. Primäres Ziel eines Einführungsunterrichtes in die Programmierung ist, die Schülerinnen und Schüler für die Programmierung zu motivieren. Um das zu erreichen, bieten sich für den Einstieg in die Programmierung visuelle Programmiersprachen an. Inhalt dieser Arbeit ist die Konzeption eines Einführungsunterrichtes in die Programmierung anhand der visuellen Programmiersprache Scratch. Folgende Fragestellung bildet dafür die Grundlage: Wie kann der Einstieg in die Programmierung möglichst motivierend und sogleich auch mit einem hohen Lernerfolg gestaltet werden? Eine Literaturrecherche zu den Themen Didaktik und visueller Programmierung bilden die theoretische Grundlage. Ergänzt durch eine qualitative (Experteninterview) und eine quantitative (Onlinebefragung) Erhebung, bilden diese Punkte die Grundlage für die Konzeption des Einführungsunterrichtes. Mittels eines Handbuches wurden diese Erkenntnisse zusammengefasst und in einer Fallstudie (Unterrichtsdurchführung in einer 5. Klasse AHS) umgesetzt. Die Fallstudie wurde durch zwei Befragungen (Schülerinnen und Schüler) evaluiert. Im Weiteren wurde das im Rahmen dieser Arbeit erstellte „Handbuch für Lehrende“ evaluiert. Dieses geschah durch eine Befragung von Lehrenden, die anhand des Handbuches den Einführungsunterricht in die Programmierung durchführten. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit zeigen, dass es vor allem auf vier Punkte bei einem erfolgreichen Einführungsunterricht in die Programmierung ankommt: Die Auswahl der passenden Programmiersprache, die Konzeption der Aufgabenstellungen, die Gestaltung der Arbeitsphasen und die Rolle der Lehrkraft.

title: Demokratie und Postdemokratie
Creators: name: Hackl, Christian
Year: 2017

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Inhaltsdimension der Demokratietheorie im Medium Schulbuch. Es soll der Frage nachgegangen werden, welche Konzepte, Inhalte, Methoden, Akteur_innen und Voraussetzungen für eine funktionierende Demokratie im Schulbuch vorgestellt werden und ob auf aktuelle innere Probleme der repräsentativen Demokratie eingegangen wird, die im wissenschaftlichen Diskurs unter dem Stichwort Postdemokratie präsent sind. Somit handelt es sich trotz des Fokus auf Schulbücher nicht um eine didaktische, sondern um eine inhaltliche und ideologiekritische Analyse. Im theoretischen Teil der Arbeit wird zuerst auf die Demokratie-Theorie aus historischer Perspektive eingegangen, sowie ein Fokus auf liberale und sozialistische Demokratie-Theorie gelegt. Daran anschließend wird auf die Krisentheorien der Demokratie seit den 1970er Jahren eingegangen. Daraus leiten sich die Kategorien für die Arbeit mit den Quellen ab. Für die Arbeit mit den Quellen wird methodisch zum einen die qualitative Inhaltsanalyse nach Mayring verwendet, um einen groben Überblick über die untersuchten Quellen zu bekommen. Daran anschließend folgt eine kritische Diskursanalyse nach Jäger, in der die einzelnen Fragmente genauer unter die Lupe genommen werden. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, herauszufinden, was zur bzw. über Demokratie im Schulbuch gesagt wird bzw. werden kann, und was nicht gesagt werden kann. Die Quellen selbst werden zwei der am meisten verwendeten Schulbuchreihen in der Sekundarstufe II in Österreich sein, die Reihe Zeitbilder und die Reihe Geschichte Oberstufe. Die vorläufige These, die im Rahmen dieser Arbeit überprüft werden soll, ist, dass im Schulbuch der wesentliche Inhalt sowie die einzige Methode der Demokratie jene der Wahl ist, als Hauptakteur_in steht die Partei im Zentrum und gegenwärtige Problemlagen der Demokratie werden nicht angesprochen. Dadurch wird ein Diskurs staatlich gefördert, der in dieser Arbeit als formeller Demokratie-Diskurs benannt wird, im Unterschied zu einem substanziellen Demokratie-Diskurs.

description:  Η παρούσα διπλωματική αναφέρεται στην ανάλυση και την άμεση παρέμβαση του ψηφιακού μετασχηματισμού στον μέσο άνθρωπο-καταναλωτή μέχρι τις μεγάλες εταιρίες. Αναλύονται οι θετικές και οι πιθανόν αρνητικές επιρροές που είχαν διάφορα γεγονότα στον κόσμο όπως ο Covid-19 στον ψηφιακό μετασχηματισμό και το πως αυτά τα γεγονότα ώθησαν στο να γίνει πιο άμεσα η ψηφιοποίηση πολλών επιχειρήσεων. Έπειτα, αναλύονται οι ευκαιρίες που δημιουργήθηκαν αλλά και τις δυσκολίες που προέκυψαν λόγω της γρήγορης ψηφιοποίησης και καταλήγουμε στο πως η εξ’ αποστάσεως εργασία, η οποία δημιουργήθηκε κυρίως λόγο της πανδημίας και κατ’ επέκταση για την καλύτερη λειτουργία των  επιχειρήσεων,  επηρεάστηκε από τις τεχνολογικές εξελίξεις. Τέλος, γίνεται αναφορά και στην υγειονομική περίθαλψη μέσα από το πρίσμα του ψηφιακού μετασχηματισμού κατα την διάρκεια του Covid-19.

Creators: name: Drozdová, Maria

description: Die Europäische Union, die USA und China sind dominierende Akteurinnen in der Weltwirtschaft und Weltpolitik. Ihr globaler Einfluss zeichnet sie als Weltmächte aus. Während die EU als eine neoinstitutionalistische Akteurin definiert werden kann, sind die USA und China dem Neorealismus zuzuordnen. Berührungspunkte dieser Global Player bestehen in geopolitischen Ansätzen ihrer Außenpolitik, die ihre globale Machtposition festigen soll. Die EU ist vor allem aufgrund ihrer wirtschaftlichen Stärke eine global dominierende Akteurin. Das Fundament der Union bilden moralische Werte, die ausschlaggebend für die Politik der EU sind. Die bestimmenden Prinzipien dieser europäischen Politik sind Demokratie, Rechtsstaatlichkeit, Freiheit, Menschenrechte und der Multilateralismus. Ihre wesentlichen Ziele sind Frieden und Wohlstand. Die europäische Politik ist daher sowohl wirtschaftsfreundlich, als auch werteorientiert geprägt. Dies gilt auch für die wirtschaftlichen Kooperationen und Partnerschaften der EU, die immer auch der politisch motivierten Vermittlung von Werten dienen sollen. Die EU bedient sich für ihre Außenpolitik geopolitischer und geostrategischer Überlegungen und Instrumente, um den globalen Einfluss zu erweitern. Anders als die traditionelle Schule der Geopolitik und Geostrategie, sieht die Doktrin der Europäischen Union hierfür in der Regel, außer zur Friedenssicherung, keinen Einsatz militärischer Mittel vor. Stattdessen werden geographische und politische Zusammenhänge in einer universellen, werteorientierten Geostrategie zusammengeführt. Eine Europäische Geostrategie ist folglich die friedliche Erweiterung der moralischen Einflussnahme ohne territoriale Aneignung. Wesentliches Instrument dieser universellen normativ-moralischen Geostrategie sind die GASP und die Außenbeziehungen der EU. Bei internationalen Kooperationen ist die EU durch ihr globales Gewicht und ihren normativen Einfluss eine Akteurin mit ‚moral power‘. Diese Form der Machtausübung unterscheidet die Europäische Union wesentlich von den USA und China sowie anderen Akteurinnen der Weltpolitik.
A High-Energy Sterile Neutrino Search in IceCube with Cascades

description: An ongoing analysis in IceCube regarding sterile neutrino oscillations is discussed.For up-going TeV-energy antineutrinos, matter-enhanced resonances for eV-scale sterile neutrinos with non-zero $theta_{24}$ and $theta_{34}$ lead to a strong enhancement of cascade-like event signatures through $nu_{mu}tonu_{s}tonu_{tau}$ oscillations and allow for a direct $nu_{tau}$ appearance probe.Non-zero $thera_{14}$ would lead to a similar appearance signature through $nu_{mu}tonu_{s}tonu_{e}$ oscillations and allow IceCube to study the signal-like features observed by gallium-based neutrino experiments.Such ongoing analyses are presented here with IceCube's expected sensitivity to sterile neutrino oscillations parameters through cascade appearance.
