title: Machbarkeitsstudie zur Nutzung von Wärmepumpen auf dem Mathildenhügel in Darmstadt
Creators: name: Goebel, Florian
Publisher: name: Hochschule Darmstadt
Year: 2024

description: Für das Erreichen der Klimaneutralität 2045 in Deutschland hat die Bundesregierung 2022 ein Gesetz vorgelegt, welches Kommunen ab 20.000 Einwohner verpflichtet einen kommunalen Wärmebedarfsplan aufzustellen. Eine Wärmebedarfsplan beinhaltet den aktuellen, sowie den zukünftigen Wärmebedarf der Kommune. Außerdem werden Potenziale für die Erzeugung erneuerbarer Energien mit Wärmepumpen ermittelt (Landes Energie Agentur Hessen, 2024). Aus den Potenzialen lassen sich innerhalb der Kommune stadtteil-/ oder gebäudespezifisch Teilmaßnahmen für eine mögliche Umsetzung ableiten. Diese Maßnahmen bestehen aus Sanierungen, dem Aufbau und der Erweiterung von Wärmeverbundlösungen und spezifische Einzellösungen. Zudem dient die Potenzialermittlung einer zukünftigen effizienten Koordination von Planung, Umsetzung und Förderung. Über die Stadtwerke können die Kommunen zielgerichtet Wärmenetze neu bauen oder ausbauen (Landes Energie Agentur Hessen, 2020).

description: High-throughput sequencing (HTS) technology enables cost-effective and efficient measurement of the nucleobase sequences of millions of DNA molecules. In order to apply HTS in systematic investigation of metabolic variations and transcription initiation, I developed data analysis pipelines, mathematical methods, and software packages. Using these tools, we have identified sequence determinants in transcription initiation and pausing, which provide mechanistic insights into the interactions between RNA polymerase and DNA template. Also, we have modeled the metabolic variations across different tissues using single-cell RNA-seq data, which provides a novel computational method to infer metabolic variations from the differences in gene expression profiles.

Overworlds, towns, and battles: how music develops the worlds of role-playing video games
Creators: name: Rossetti, Gregory James
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: This dissertation observes how specific musical themes from early home console role-playing video games build worlds. It includes case studies from several games including The Legend of Zelda, Dragon Warrior, and multiple games from the Final Fantasy series. Discussed in detail are how specific gaming events such as the overworld, town, and battle each serve a specific function in the player’s immersion into an imaginary world. Overworld themes are used to evoke a sense of place, town themes establish identity of the inhabitants, while battle themes provide intensity to a new form of gameplay. The music for each one of these gaming events contains specific harmonic, melodic, or rhythmic gestures that establish musical tropes that are used throughout this genre of game

description: Dynamical quantum phase transitions are non-analyticities in a dynamical free energy (or return rate) which occur at critical times. Although extensively studied in one dimension, the exact nature of the non-analyticity in two and three dimensions has not yet been fully investigated. In two dimensions, results so far are known only for relatively simple two-band models. Here we study the general two- and three-dimensional cases. We establish the relation between the non-analyticities in different dimensions, and the functional form of the densities of Fisher zeroes. We show, in particular, that entering a critical region where the density of Fisher zeroes is non-zero at the boundary always leads to a cusp in the derivative of the return rate while the return rate itself is smooth. We illustrate our results by obtaining analytical results for exemplary two- and three-dimensional models.

Identification key. We provided a revised identification key that covers five of the six described Eucryptorrhynchus species. For the morphological comparisons of two species, E. papuanus and E. cenninii, we had to rely on the original descriptions due to the unavailability of specimens for examination. Additionally, we were unable to include E. intermedius in the key, due to the unavailability of specimens for examination and the limited information available in the original description of this species.

description: Distributed optimization plays an important role in modern large-scale machine learning and data processing systems by optimizing the utilization of computational resources. One of the classical and popular approaches is Local Stochastic Gradient Descent (Local SGD), characterized by multiple local updates before averaging, which is particularly useful in distributed environments to reduce communication bottlenecks and improve scalability. A typical feature of this method is the dependence on the frequency of communications. But in the case of a quadratic target function with homogeneous data distribution over all devices, the influence of frequency of communications vanishes. As a natural consequence, subsequent studies include the assumption of a Lipschitz Hessian, as this indicates the similarity of the optimized function to a quadratic one to some extent. However, in order to extend the completeness of the Local SGD theory and unlock its potential, in this paper we abandon the Lipschitz Hessian assumption by introducing a new concept of $\textit{approximate quadraticity}$. This assumption gives a new perspective on problems that have near quadratic properties. In addition, existing theoretical analyses of Local SGD often assume bounded variance. We, in turn, consider the unbounded noise condition, which allows us to broaden the class of studied problems.

description: Context: New spectroscopic surveys will increase the number of astronomical objects requiring characterization by over tenfold.. Machine learning tools are required to address this data deluge in a fast and accurate fashion. Most machine learning algorithms can not estimate error directly, making them unsuitable for reliable science.
 Aims: We aim to train a supervised deep-learning algorithm tailored for high-resolution observational stellar spectra. This algorithm accurately infer precise estimates while providing coherent estimates of uncertainties by leveraging information from both the neural network and the spectra.
 Methods: We train a conditional Invertible Neural Network (cINN) on observational spectroscopic data obtained from the GIRAFFE spectrograph (HR10 and HR21 setups) within the Gaia-ESO survey. A key features of cINN is its ability to produce the Bayesian posterior distribution of parameters for each spectrum. By analyzing this distribution, we inferred parameters and their uncertainties. Several tests have been applied to study how parameters and errors are estimated.
 Results: We achieved an accuracy of 28K in $T_{\text{eff}}$, 0.06 dex in $\log g$, 0.03 dex in $[\text{Fe/H}]$, and between 0.05 dex and 0.17 dex for the other abundances for high quality spectra. Accuracy remains stable with low signal-to-noise ratio spectra. The uncertainties obtained are well within the same order of magnitude. The network accurately reproduces astrophysical relationships both on the scale of the Milky Way and within smaller star clusters. We created a table containing the new parameters generated by our cINN.
 Conclusion: This neural network represents a compelling proposition for future astronomical surveys. These coherent derived uncertainties make it possible to reuse these estimates in other works as Bayesian priors and thus present a solid basis for future work.

description: The exoplanet sub-Neptune population currently poses a conundrum, as to whether small-size planets are volatile-rich cores without an atmosphere, or rocky cores surrounded by a H-He envelope. To test the different hypotheses from an observational point of view, a large sample of small-size planets with precise mass and radius measurements is the first step. On top of that, much more information will likely be needed, including atmospheric characterisation and a demographic perspective on their bulk properties. We present here the concept and strategy of the THIRSTEE project, which aims to shed light on the composition of the sub-Neptune population across stellar types by increasing their number and improving the accuracy of bulk density measurements, as well as investigating their atmospheres and performing statistical, demographic analysis. We report the first results of the program, characterising a new two-planet system around the M-dwarf TOI-406. We analyse TESS and ground-based photometry, together with ESPRESSO and NIRPS/HARPS RVs to derive the orbital parameters and investigate the internal composition of the 2 planets orbiting TOI-406, which have radii and masses of $R_c = 1.32 \pm 0.12 R_{\oplus}$, $M_c = 2.08_{-0.22}^{+0.23} M_{\oplus}$ and $R_b = 2.08_{-0.15}^{+0.16} R_{\oplus}$, $M_b = 6.57_{-0.90}^{+1.00} M_{\oplus}$, and periods of $3.3$ and $13.2$ days, respectively. Planet c is consistent with an Earth-like composition, while planet b is compatible with multiple internal composition models, including volatile-rich planets without H/He atmospheres. The 2 planets are located in 2 distinct regions in the mass-density diagram, supporting the existence of a density gap among small exoplanets around M dwarfs. With an T$_{\rm eq}$ of only 368 K, TOI-406 b stands up as a particularly interesting target for atmospheric characterisation with JWST in the low-temperature regime.

The legality focuses on the archival legislation of the Republic of Indonesia in discussion related to the management of electronic archives.Design/methodology/approachThe method used in this research is content analysis with qualitative research approach. The data for this research was taken from the Undang-Undang Kearsipan Indonesia (Indonesia Archives Constitution) documents that is available on the official website of Arsip Nasional Republik Indonesia (ANRI) (National Archives of the Republic of Indonesia). To complete the discussion in this paper also conducted literature study using secondary literature sources.FindingsFrom the aspect of legality, the management of electronic archives does not yet support the implementation of Indonesia E-government. From the aspect of legality, the laws governing the management of electronic archives has not yet existed, there is only the Regulation of the Head of the National Archives regarding the guidelines of general policy for electronic records management in 2012.Research limitations/implicationsThis research is limited to the identification of comprehensive analysis on all documents of the ANRI on the management of electronic archives in the context of Indonesia E-government. From that, the gap between those aspects can be examined.Social implicationsThis paper reveals the importance of legality in the form of regulation of electronic records management in Indonesia E-government. Findings from this research can be useful for the Indonesia E-government program.Originality/valueResearch with content analysis method on management of electronic archive on Law of Archiving in Republik Indonesia has never been done before. This also applies to the research on the relationship between the management of electronic archives with the application of Indonesia E-government.

description: Accurately characterizing the true redshift (true-$z$) distribution of a photometric redshift (photo-$z$) sample is critical for cosmological analyses in imaging surveys. Clustering-based techniques, which include clustering-redshift (CZ) and self-calibration (SC) methods--depending on whether external spectroscopic data are used--offer powerful tools for this purpose. In this study, we explore the joint inference of the true-$z$ distribution by combining SC and CZ (denoted as SC+CZ). We derive simple multiplicative update rules to perform the joint inference. By incorporating appropriate error weighting and an additional weighting function, our method shows significant improvement over previous algorithms. We validate our approach using a DES Y3 mock catalog. The true-$z$ distribution estimated through the combined SC+CZ method is generally more accurate than using SC or CZ alone. To account for the different constraining powers of these methods, we assign distinct weights to the SC and CZ contributions. The optimal weights, which minimize the distribution error, depend on the relative constraining strength of the SC and CZ data. Specifically, for a spectroscopic redshift sample that amounts to 1% of the photo-$z$ sample, the optimal combination reduces the total error by 20% (40%) compared to using CZ (SC) alone, and it keeps the bias in mean redshift [$Δ\bar{z} / (1 + z) $] at the level of 0.3%. Furthermore, when CZ data is only available in the low-$z$ range and the high-$z$ range relies solely on SC data, SC+CZ enables consistent estimation of the true-$z$ distribution across the entire redshift range. Our findings demonstrate that SC+CZ is an effective tool for constraining the true-$z$ distribution, paving the way for clustering-based methods to be applied at $z\gtrsim 1$.

description: During the core collapse of a massive star just before its supernova explosion, the amplification of asymmetric motions by the standing accretion shock instability (SASI) imprints on the neutrino flux and the gravitational waves a frequency signature carrying direct information on the explosion process. The physical interpretation of this multi-messenger signature requires a detailed understanding of the instability mechanism. A perturbative analysis is used to characterize the properties of SASI, and assess the effect of the region of neutronization above the surface of the proto-neutron star. The eigenfrequencies of the most unstable modes are compared to those obtained in an adiabatic approximation where neutrino interactions are neglected above the neutrinosphere. The differential system is solved analytically using a Wronskian method and approximated asymptotically for a large shock radius. The oscillation period of SASI is well fitted with a simple analytic function of the shock radius, the radius of maximum deceleration and the mass of the proto-neutron star. The oscillation period is weakly dependent on the parametrized cooling function which however affects the SASI growth rate. The general properties of SASI eigenmodes are described using an adiabatic model. In this approximation the eigenvalue problem is formulated as a self-forced oscillator. The forcing agent is the radial advection of baroclinic vorticity perturbations and entropy perturbations produced by the shock oscillation. The differential system defining the eigenfrequencies is reduced to a single integral equation. Its analytical approximation sheds light on the radially extended character of the region of advective-acoustic coupling. The simplicity of this adiabatic formalism opens new perspectives to investigate the effect of stellar rotation and non-adiabatic processes on SASI.
