description: SummaryCoverage of migrant and refugee data is incomplete and of insufficient quality in European health information systems. This is not because we lack the knowledge or technology. Rather, it is due to various political factors at local, national and European levels, which hinder the implementation of existing knowledge and guidelines. This reflects the low political priority given to the topic, and also complex governance challenges associated with migration and displacement. We review recent evidence, guidelines, and policies to propose four approaches that will advance science, policy, and practice. First, we call for strategies that ensure that data is collected, analyzed and disseminated systematically. Second, we propose methods to safeguard privacy while combining data from multiple sources. Third, we set out how to enable survey methods that take account of the groups’ diversity. Fourth, we emphasize the need to engage migrants and refugees in decisions about their own health data. Based on these approaches, we propose a change management approach that narrows the gap between knowledge and action to create healthcare policies and practices that are truly inclusive of migrants and refugees. We thereby offer an agenda that will better serve public health needs, including those of migrants and refugees and advance equity in European health systems.

description: Banded matrices can be used as precision matrices in several models including linear state-space models, some Gaussian processes, and Gaussian Markov random fields. The aim of the paper is to make modern inference methods (such as variational inference or gradient-based sampling) available for Gaussian models with banded precision. We show that this can efficiently be achieved by equipping an automatic differentiation framework, such as TensorFlow or PyTorch, with some linear algebra operators dedicated to banded matrices. This paper studies the algorithmic aspects of the required operators, details their reverse-mode derivatives, and show that their complexity is linear in the number of observations.

description: We use perturbative series expansions about a staggered dimerized ground state to compute the ground state energy, triplet excitation spectra and spectral weight for a one-dimensional model in which each site has an $S=\case 1/2$ spin ${\bf S}_i$ and a pseudospin ${\bf T}_i$, representing a doubly degenerate orbital. An explicit dimerization is introduced to allow study of the confinement of spinon excitations. The elementary triplet represents a bound state of two spinons, and is stable over much of the Brillouine zone. A special line is found in the gapped spin-liquid phase, on which the triplet excitation is dispersionless. The formation of triplet bound states is also investigated.

description: Dieser Aufsatz befasst sich mit der Erfassung von Lernschwierigkeiten und Lernbedürfnissen beim Erlernen der deutschen Sprache von Insassen, die sich in der Justizanstalt Suben in einer Bäckerausbildung befinden. Um den unterschiedlichen Lernkompetenzen und Bedürfnissen gerecht zu werden, werden drei Lerntools (ELIS-Deutschkurs, Concept Map Technik, Projekt "Sauerteig") vorgestellt, die zwischen 2016 und 2020 in der Bäckerausbildung zum Deutschlernen eingesetzt wurden. Im Jahr 2017 wurde eine quantitative Fragebogenuntersuchung des ELIS-Deutschkurses bei 30 Insassen durchgeführt, um festzustellen, ob das Lerntool für den vorgesehenen Einsatz geeignet ist. Im Jahr 2020 wurde zusätzlich eine qualitative Evaluierung mittels Leitfadeninterviews durchgeführt und die drei verwendeten Lerntools analysiert sowie eine explizite Erfassung der Lernschwierigkeiten und Lernbedürfnisse durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchungen von 2017 und 2020 haben gezeigt, dass die eingesetzten Lerntools auf unterschiedliche Weise auf die Lernbedürfnisse zum Deutschlernen geeignet sind.  Die Evaluierung zeigte unterschiedliche Erfolgsquotienten für die eingesetzten Lerntools ELIS-Deutschkurs, Concept Map Technik und Projekt "Sauerteig" auf. Der ELIS-Deutschkurs erwies sich als am besten geeignet für das Leseverständnis beim Deutschlernen, war jedoch weniger effektiv beim Schreiben lernen. Die Concept Map Technik erwies sich als hilfreich für Personen mit geringerer Qualifikation, um neue Wörter mithilfe ihrer Muttersprache zu verknüpfen und diese dann ins Deutsche zu übersetzen. Das Projekt “Sauerteig” schnitt hingegen bei der Evaluation am schlechtesten ab, da es aufgrund des Schwierigkeitsgrades der Inhalte überfordert wirkte. Deshalb ist es wichtig, dass das Ausbildungspersonal entsprechend geschult wird und bereit ist, die Lernschwierigkeiten und Lernbedürfnisse zu erkennen, um Lerntools in geeigneter Weise einsetzen und gegebenfalls noch weitere hinzufügen zu können.

description: Intrinsic limits to temperature-dependent substrate loss for GaN-on-Si technology, due to the change in resistivity of the substrate with temperature, are evaluated using an experimentally validated device simulation framework. Effect of room temperature substrate resistivity on temperature-dependent CPW line loss at various operating frequency bands are then presented. CPW lines for GaN-on-high resistivity Si are shown to have a pronounced temperature-dependence for temperatures above 150°C and have lower substrate losses for frequencies above the X-band. On the other hand, GaN-on-low resistivity Si is shown to be more temperature-insensitive and have lower substrate losses than even HR-Si for lower operating frequencies. The effect of various CPW geometries on substrate loss is also presented to generalize the discussion. These results are expected to act as a benchmark for temperature dependent substrate loss in GaN-on-Si RF technology.

description: Perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) are emerging persistent organic pollutants that are globally distributed in the environment. In the present review, the occurrence of PFAAs and their behavior in aquatic ecosystem were summarized, and the health and ecological risk assessment and the multimedia fate simulation were investigated. PFAAs are most likely to exist in the aqueous phase, and PFAAs in atmosphere are also able to enter water bodies through diffusion and wet and dry deposition and eventually become widely distributed in various environmental media. The air-solid partition is considered to be one of the major factors in the long-distance transportation of the pollutants. The pKa values and organic carbon fraction of the sediment could influence the partition of PFAAs between water and sediment. Otherwise, PFAAs have teratogenic, mutagenic and other toxic effects and they could be accumulated by biota, and magnified through trophic level. The ecological and health risks of PFOA and PFOS were assessment. In order to explore the partition mechanism and reduce the uncertainty of the simulation of the transport, transformation and fate, the experimental methods on physicochemical properties of PFAAs should be developed. Moreover, further studies on toxicities of PFAAs are necessary for health and ecological risk assessment.

description: Using an efficient numerical scheme that exploits spatial symmetries and spin parity, we have obtained the exact low-lying eigenstates of exchange Hamiltonians for the high nuclearity spin clusters, Mn_{12}, Fe_8 and V_{15}. The largest calculation involves the Mn_{12} cluster which spans a Fock space of a hundred million. Our results show that the earlier estimates of the exchange constants need to be revised for the Mn_{12} cluster to explain the level ordering of low-lying eigenstates. In the case of the Fe_8 cluster, correct level ordering can be obtained which is consistent with the exchange constants for the already known clusters with butterfly structure. In the V_{15} cluster, we obtain an effective Hamiltonian that reproduces exactly, the eight low-lying eigenvalues of the full Hamiltonian.

description: The performance of solid-state quantum sensors based on electronic spin defects is often limited by the presence of environmental spin impurities that cause decoherence. A promising approach to improve these quantum sensors is to convert environment spins into useful resources for sensing. Here we demonstrate the efficient use of an unknown electronic spin defect in the proximity of a nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond as both a quantum sensor and a quantum memory. We first experimentally evaluate the improvement in magnetic field sensing provided by mixed entangled states of the two electronic spins. Our results critically highlight the tradeoff between the advantages expected from increasing the number of spin sensors and the typical challenges associated with increasing control errors, decoherence rates, and time overheads. Still, by taking advantage of the spin defect as both a quantum sensor and a quantum memory whose state can be repetitively measured to improve the readout fidelity, we can achieve a gain in performance over the use of a single-spin sensor. These results show that the efficient use of available quantum resources can enhance quantum devices, pointing to a practical strategy towards quantum-enhanced sensing and information processing by exploiting environment spin defects.

description: The Boson-Fermion model, describing a mixture of tightly bound electron pairs and quasi-free electrons hybridized with each other via a charge exchange term, is studied in the limit of infinite dimensions, using the Non-Crossing Approximation within the Dynamical Mean Field Theory. It is shown that a metal-insulator crossover, driven by strong pair fluctuations, takes place as the temperature is lowered. It manifests itself in the opening of a pseudogap in the electron density of states, accompanied by a corresponding effect in the optical and dc conductivity.

A ferramenta utilizada para estimar as doses de radiação foi o Método Monte Carlo, mais especificamente o código Monte Carlo N-Particle 6 (MCNP6). O dosímetro, cujo formato se assemelha a um disco, teve sua absorção de dose avaliada ao se manter a mesma energia, 90 keV, e a mesma distância, 1 m; considerando também o efeito do mesmo na matriz de PTFE. Em um intervalo entre 10% e 20% de PTFE no dosímetro, a energia absorvida pelo mesmo aumenta e a menor absorção foi verificada para a amostra com maior taxa do polímero.

description: Indem er die Biografie Nicolaus Sombarts (1923-2008) nachzeichnet, führt Günter Erbe uns durch drei Epochen deutscher Geschichte: von der Weimarer Republik bis zur Bundesrepublik der Gegenwart. Obwohl Sombart in einem großbürgerlichen Elternhaus aufwuchs, wo er den literarisch-wissenschaftlichen Salon seiner Mutter erlebte, wurde er später ein starker Befürworter der sexuellen Emanzipation der Frau. Als von Charles Fourier beeinflusster Utopist entwarf er eine gesellschaftliche Neuordnung der Geschlechterrollen. Seine geistige Nähe zu Carl Schmitt als Kronjurist des Dritten Reichs wie seine elitären kulturellen Ansichten machen ihn bis heute umstritten.  Dabei liegt der Wert seines literarischen Schaffens in den Tagebüchern der Skandale der höheren Gesellschaft, die ihn immer wieder anzog. Hier konnte er auch sein soziologisches Interesse verwirklichen, nachdem seine wissenschaftliche Laufbahn ihr Ende fand. Mit der Etablierung eines eigenen Salons und seinem Umgang mit der gesellschaftlichen Elite Berlins, der neuen Hauptstadt, gelang es ihm, die Brücke zum großbürgerlichen Salon vergangener Zeiten, dem seiner eigenen Kindheit, zu schlagen.

description: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are neurodegenerative diseases that exist on a clinico-pathogenetic spectrum, designated ALS/FTD. The most common genetic cause of ALS/FTD is expansion of the intronic hexanucleotide repeat (GGGGCC)n in C9orf72. Here, we investigate the formation of nucleic acid secondary structures in these expansion repeats, and their role in generating condensates characteristic of ALS/FTD. We observe significant aggregation of the hexanucleotide sequence (GGGGCC)n, which we associate to the formation of multimolecular G-quadruplexes (mG4s) by using a range of biophysical techniques. Exposing the condensates to G4-unfolding conditions leads to prompt disassembly, highlighting the key role of mG4-formation in the condensation process. We further validate the biological relevance of our findings by detecting an increased prevalence of G4-structures in C9orf72 mutant human motor neurons when compared to healthy motor neurons by staining with a G4-selective fluorescent probe, revealing signal in putative condensates. Our findings strongly suggest that RNA G-rich repetitive sequences can form protein-free condensates sustained by multimolecular G-quadruplexes, highlighting their potential relevance as therapeutic targets for C9orf72 mutation-related ALS/FTD.

description: Space conditioning, and cooling in particular, is a key factor in human productivity and well-being across the globe. During the 21st century, global cooling demand is expected to grow significantly due to the increase in wealth and population in sunny nations across the globe and the advance of global warming. The same locations that see high demand for cooling are also ideal for electricity generation via photovoltaics (PV). Despite the apparent synergy between cooling demand and PV generation, the potential of the cooling sector to sustain PV generation has not been assessed on a global scale. Here, we perform a global assessment of increased PV electricity adoption enabled by the residential cooling sector during the 21st century. Already today, utilizing PV production for cooling could facilitate an additional installed PV capacity of approximately 540 GW, more than the global PV capacity of today. Using established scenarios of population and income growth, as well as accounting for future global warming, we further project that the global residential cooling sector could sustain an added PV capacity between 20-200 GW each year for most of the 21st century, on par with the current global manufacturing capacity of 100 GW. Furthermore, we find that without storage, PV could directly power approximately 50% of cooling demand, and that this fraction is set to increase from 49% to 56% during the 21st century, as cooling demand grows in locations where PV and cooling have a higher synergy. With this geographic shift in demand, the potential of distributed storage also grows. We simulate that with a 1 m$^3$ water-based latent thermal storage per household, the fraction of cooling demand met with PV would increase from 55% to 70% during the century. These results show that the synergy between cooling and PV is notable and could significantly accelerate the growth of the global PV industry.

description: We report resistivity measurements of a CrAs single crystal in a wide temperature range, with the specific aim to assess the applicability of the Bloch-Gruneisen formula for electron-phonon resistivity. We find that the resistance reaches a residual value at Tc=4.2 K and its temperature dependence cannot be fitted only with a suitable Bloch-Gruneisen formula in the whole temperature range, even though we are able to calculate a well defined transport Debye temperature. The observed temperature dependent resistivity seems to suggest a non phonon-mediated superconducting pairing, supporting a magnetic fluctuation mechanism as the likely glue for the superconducting coupling.

description: Excerpts from the report: This study was initiated in the winter of 1963 at the request of various city, State, civic, and industry groups in Chicago and Illinois. The Division of Markets of the State Department of Agriculture realized that the wholesale handling and marketing of food in the Chicago area, during its growth and development into a major industry, had incorporated many inefficiencies into the system used. The State Board of Economic Development and the Illinois Agricultural Extension Service likewise were aware that for the area to continue its growth and development, improvements in the wholesale marketing and handling of food were very desirable. The Department of City Planning in Chicago was vitally interested because the wholesale food markets have long been a problem and are an obstacle to developing a sound long-range plan for certain areas in the city and metropolitan area. The objectives of this study were: 1. To analyze and evaluate the present wholesale marketing facilities used in Chicago for handling food. 2. To estimate the major costs of handling these products under present conditions with current methods and techniques. 3. To determine the kinds and amounts of facilities needed for efficient wholesaling of food and food products in Chicago. 4. To estimate the costs of construction and the income required for improved marketing facilities for the Chicago metropolitan area. 5. To outline the benefits that might be derived from improved and efficient facilities for handling food. 6. To develop a long-range plan that will incorporate best known and most advanced methods and techniques for the future of the wholesale food handling industry. This study includes the following groups of wholesale food operators: Fruits and vegetables; meat and meat products; poultry; butter, eggs, and cheese; frozen foods; and groceries. Studies of the facilities for handling fish and seafood were contracted for by the U.S. Department of the Interior. Results of these studies are used to determine the kinds, amounts, and location of facilities that should be included in a complete food center.

description: Particle shape plays an important role in the phase behavior of colloidal self-assembly. Recent progress in particle synthesis has made particles of polyhedral shapes and dimpled spherical shapes available. Here using computer simulations of hard particle models, we study face-centered cubic to body-centered cubic (FCC-to-BCC) phase transitions in a convex 432 polyhedral shape family and a concave dimpled sphere family. Particles in both families have four-, three-, and two-fold rotational symmetries. Via free energy calculations we find the FCC-to-BCC transitions in both families are first order. As a previous work reports the FCC-to-BCC phase transition is first order in a convex 332 family of hard polyhedra, our work provides additional insight into the FCC-to-BCC transition and how the convexity or concavity of particle shape affects phase transition pathways.

description: We have found an expression for the full many-body Green's function of N pairwise finite-range interacting atoms, in a form of a chain fraction involving two-body T-matrices only, with no explicit presence of the interaction potentials themselves. We show that in the limit of infinitely small potential range, this expression reduces to the Green's function for N atoms interacting via a generalized pseudo-potential, function of a free parameter Λ. Using this Λ-freedom we resolve all inconsistensies of the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov formalism known so far, with no ad hoc modifications of the theory.

description: Der von Sebastian Bernhardt und Ina Henke herausgegebene Band erkundet die Verbindungen zwischen Erzähltheorie und Literaturunterricht. Dabei wird kritisiert, dass veraltete Konzepte weiterhin Verwendung finden und alternative Ansätze dringend erforderlich sind. Besonderes Augenmerk liegt auf der Bedeutung der eigenen Produktion im Unterricht und der narrativen Kompetenz im Umgang mit verschiedenen Medien. Trotz Uneinheitlichkeit in den Ansätzen wird die Notwendigkeit betont, die Art und Weise der Darstellung von Erzählungen (discours) in verschiedenen Medien verstärkt in den Bildungsbereich zu integrieren.

description: We re-investigate the question whether a light higgsino-like neutralino is a viable Dark Matter candidate. To this end we compute the dominant one-loop corrections to the masses of the higgsino-like states in the minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), due to loops involving heavy quarks and their superpartners. We also calculate analogous corrections to the couplings of higgsino-like neutralinos to Z and Higgs bosons. In the region of parameter space leading to high higgsino purity of the lightest neutralino, these corrections can change the expected relic density by up to a factor of five in either direction. We conclude that for favorable choices of soft supersymmetry breaking parameters, a state with more than 99% higgsino purity could indeed form all cold Dark Matter in the Universe. In some cases these corrections can also increase the expected cross section for LSP scattering off spinless nuclei by up to two orders of magnitude, or reduce it to zero.

description: Die internationale Germanistik sieht sich häufig mit dem Spannungsfeld konfrontiert, das sich aus den unterschiedlichen Ansprüchen von Praxisrelevanz und Wissenschaftlichkeit ergibt. Zwischen Spracherwerb und der Schwierigkeit für Absolvent*innen, in einem prekären Arbeitsmarkt Fuß zu fassen, droht die Vermittlung wissenschaftlicher Inhalte und Methoden oft zu kurz zu kommen. Wie diesem Konflikt mit dem Konzept des Forschenden Lernens begegnet werden kann, beschreibt der Sammelband Forschendes Lernen in der interkulturellen Germanistik anhand von internationalen Fallstudien.

description: This paper explores the effect of different regional technological profiles on the resilience of regional economies to exogenous shocks. It presents an empirical examination of the determinants of resilience through panel analyses of UK NUTS-III-level data for the period 2004–12. The results indicate that regions endowed with technologically coherent – and not simply diversified – knowledge bases are better prepared to face an unforeseen downturn and display adaptive resilience. Moreover, local economies tend to be more adaptable if they innovate in sectors with the strongest growth opportunities, even though firms’ entry does not appear to contribute significantly towards resilience.

Magnetic Interactions in BiFeO$_3$: a First-Principles Study

description: First-principles calculations, in combination with the four-state energy mapping method, are performed to extract the magnetic interaction parameters of multiferroic BiFeO$_3$. Such parameters include the symmetric exchange (SE) couplings and the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interactions up to second nearest neighbors, as well as the single ion anisotropy (SIA). All magnetic parameters are obtained not only for the $R3c$ structural ground state, but also for the $R3m$ and $R\bar{3}c$ phases in order to determine the effects of ferroelectricity and antiferrodistortion distortions, respectively, on these magnetic parameters. In particular, two different second-nearest neighbor couplings are identified and their origins are discussed in details. Moreover, Monte-Carlo (MC) simulations using a magnetic Hamiltonian incorporating these first-principles-derived interaction parameters are further performed. They result (i) not only in the accurate prediction of the spin-canted G-type antiferromagnetic structure and of the known magnetic cycloid propagating along a $$ direction, as well as their unusual characteristics (such as a weak magnetization and spin-density-waves, respectively); (ii) but also in the finding of another cycloidal state of low-energy and that awaits to be experimentally confirmed. Turning on and off the different magnetic interaction parameters in the MC simulations also reveal the precise role of each of them on magnetism.

description: Dass Filme in besonderer Weise zur Bildung eingesetzt werden können, ist bekanntlich ein traditionsreiches Paradigma (Henzler/Pauleit 2010: 7). Ebenso alt und nicht weniger bedeutend ist die Betonung der Neigung des „populären“ Kinos zur Verwendung stereotyper Darstellungsweisen. Die Herausforderung im Sinne einer aufgeklärten Medienpädagogik besteht nun darin, mit dem oder (in kritischer Lektüre) über den jeweiligen Stereotypendiskurs im Film zu reflektieren. Ziel dieses Artikels ist eine Heranführung an die pädagogische Fruchtbarmachung von populärkulturellen Medienangeboten respektive Stereotypen sowie an deren kritische Erforschbarkeit im Kontext der Film- und Medienpädagogik im Allgemeinen bzw. des interkulturellen Lernens und Fremdsprachenunterrichts im Speziellen.

description: A one-dimensional model of interacting electrons with on-site $U$, nearest-neighbor $V$, and correlated-hopping interaction $T^{\ast}$ is studied at half-filling using the continuum-limit field theory approach. The ground state phase diagram is obtained for a wide range of coupling constants. In addition to the insulating spin- and charge-density wave phases for large $U$ and $V$, respectively, we identify bond-located ordered phases corresponding to an enhanced Peierls instability in the system for $T^\ast>0$, $|U-2V|<8T^\ast/π$ and to a staggered magnetization located on bonds between sites for $T^\ast<0$, $|U-2V|<8|T^\ast|/π$. The general ground state phase diagram including insulating, metallic, and superconducting phases is discussed.

description: Terahertz radiation generation from liquid water has long been considered to be impossible due to strong absorption. A few very recent works reported terahertz generation from water, but the mechanism is not clear and the efficiency demands to be enhanced. We show experimentally that strong single-cycle terahertz radiation with field strength of $\rm 0.2~MV cm^{-1}$ is generated from a water line/column of $\sim 200 μm$ in diameter irradiated by a mJ femtosecond laser beam. This strength is 100-fold higher than that produced from air. We attribute the mechanism to the laser-ponderomotive-force-induced current with the symmetry broken around the water-column interface. This mechanism can explain our following observations: the radiation can be generated only when the laser propagation axis deviates from the column center; the deviation determines its field strength and polarity; it is always p-polarized no matter whether the laser is p- or s-polarized. This study provides a simple and efficient scheme of table-top terahertz sources based on liquid water.
