Elliptic Flow at Large Viscosity
Creators: name: Koch, Volker
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this contribution we present an alternative scenario for the large elliptic flow observed in relativistic heavy ion collisions. Motivated by recent results from Lattice QCD on flavor off-diagonal susceptibilities we argue that the matter right above $T_{c}$ can be described by single-particle dynamics in a repulsive single-particle potential, which in turn gives rise to elliptic flow. These ideas can be tested experimentally by measuring elliptic flow of heavy quarks, preferably via the measurement of $J/Ψ$ elliptic flow.

description: The dynamics of F=1 spinor condensates initially prepared in a double-well potential is studied in the mean field approach. It is shown that a small seed of $m=0$ atoms on a system with initially well separated m=1 and m=-1 condensates has a dramatic effect on their mixing dynamics, acting as an effective barrier for a remarkably long time. We show that this effect is due to the spinor character of the system, and provides an observable example of the interplay between the internal spin dynamics and the macroscopic evolution of the magnetization in a spinor Bose-Einstein condensate.

description: Daß Grammatik im Fremdsprachenunterricht kein Übel ist, sondern ein wichtiger und sinnvoller Lernbereich, ist auf dem heutigen Stand der Diskussion wohl nicht mehr allzu umstritten, zumal findige Lehrwerkautoren und -autorinnen, Dozentinnen und Dozenten inzwischen auch unter Beweis gestellt haben, daß Grammtiklernen "lebendig" sein und Spaß machen kann. Allerdings ist der Erwerb von grammatischen Kenntnissen und Fähigkeiten kein Selbstzweck, sie sollen den Lernenden helfen, ihre Äußerungs- und Verstehensfähigkeit zu verbessern. Im kommunikativ orientierten Fremdsprachenunterricht hat Grammatik also in erster Linie eine dienende Funktion. Die formalen und strukturellen Eigenschaften sprachlicher Einheiten sollen nicht um ihrer selbst willen erkannt und gelernt werden, sondern als Eigenschaften sprachlicher Mittel, die der Realisierung von Inhalten und Funktionen in bestimmten Verwendungssituationen dienen. Der Vorrang der Kommunikation hat dazu geführt, daß die Grammatik im Unterricht möglichst kontext- und situationsbezogen und verstärkt auch aus einer inhaltsgrammatischen Perspektive vermittelt wird. Vor allem im DaF-Unterricht für Fortgeschrittene ist sie dabei in die thematische und fertigkeitenorientierte Progression integriert und wird so häufig eher selektiv und punktuell behandelt. Trotzdem oder gerade deshalb sollten fortschrittene Lernende natürlich auf eine systematische Darstellung der Grammatik zurückgreifen können, wie sie Referenz- und Übungsgrammatiken bieten.

A versatile digital-to-analog function generator and multiplier.
Creators: name: Lovas, Laszlo Tamas
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This work describes the design, construction, and testing of a digital-to-analog function generator and multiplier for analog computation and non-linear system simulation. The unit consists of two separate channels each of which is fed by a punched paper tape. Functions (of time) are represented on the tapes in binary code and are read into the machine photoelectrically. In one channel, voltage sources of constant value but of either polarity are switched into the parallel branches of a ladder network in accordance with the incoming digital information. As a result of the particular choice of resistor values in the ladder network the voltage at one end of the resistive network is proportional to the binary number signified by the polarity combination of the voltage sources. In the other channel the function represented on the tape controls the polarities of the voltage sources, and the magnitudes of the source voltages are changed according to a second function, which results in an output voltage proportional to the product of the two functions. This second function may be generated independently in the first channel, or it may be an external computer variable. One level on each tape is reserved for the generation of control pulses which can be used to de-energize the reset relay in the computer, i.e. to initiate the compute mode. The variable tape speed and gain controls greatly enhance the versatility of the device and render it very useful in analog computer simulation studies. Error analyses of two resistive decoding networks are outlined and their results are considered in the final choice of the decoding network. Complete circuit diagrams with short explanations of their operation are presented. Results of tests on accuracy, speed and general performance are summarized and illustrated.
A fuzzy computational intelligence approach to monitoring information technology project scope
Creators: name: McQuighan, Joseph M.
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2013

description: Monitoring and understanding scope status is essential to the management of information technology (IT) projects. Many IT project failures have been due to mismanagement of scope, a subjective constraint. The result has been a reliance on monitoring systems that measured quantitative data to indirectly infer the status. This study designed methods to address monitoring IT scope when it is intangible. The design science research methodology was implemented using processes identified by Peffers, Tuunanen, Rothenberger, and Chatterjee. The methodology involved six activities in the building and evaluating of artifacts to demonstrate computational intelligence methods. The first activity in the methodology established IT scope as a source of costly project failures. The second step defined the objectives for a solution to the problem. The third activity in the research methodology was to build a design. The output of the design process was a set of methods utilizing computational intelligence for both collection and processing of subjective opinions. The fourth and fifth activities of the design science approach were to demonstrate and then to evaluate the effectiveness of the methods compared to conventional status reports. The evaluation by experts confirmed that the methods can monitor subjective status. After establishing the utility of the methods, their evaluation considered two extensions of the design: computational linguistic hedges and leading indicators for scope status. The sixth activity in the methodology was to communicate findings to both IT researchers and project management professionals. That was accomplished by presenting the design artifacts in peer reviewed conference proceedings. In summary, the design science research methodology framed the research questions, presented a design of the methods, the demonstration and evaluation of design artifacts by subject matter experts, and the communications of the findings. The primary contribution of this research is the employment of computational intelligence methods to the subjective, qualitative scope constraint in the monitoring and execution phases of an IT project. The other contributions are utilizing computational linguistic hedges to modify the scope status, and the implementation of CI methods for leading indicators. It was clear that the methods provided information to project managers to initiate corrective actions.

description: . In der Geschichte des Fremdsprachenunterrichts hatte das Schreiben je nach methodischem Ansatz einen unterschiedlichen Stellenwert. War die Schrift im Grammatik-ÜbersetzungsAnsatz das Medium, in dem die Sprache überhaupt in Erscheinung trat, ist im Gegensatz dazu das Schreiben im kommunikativen Sprachunterricht eher verpönt. Unter dem Postulat des Sprechens als alleinigem Mittel, das Sprechen zu lernen, gilt das Schreiben im Rahmen des Spracherwerbs als kontraproduktiv, da es nicht direkt zum Sprechen d.h. zur mündlichen Sprachproduktion führt. Bei Krashen (1981) heißt es, dass das Schreiben als reine Produktion nicht zum Fremdsprachenerwerb beiträgt und nur in bestimmten Fällen überhaupt Teil des Unterrichts sein soll: zum Vokabellernen, als Teil einer mündlichen Aktivität (eines Spiels z.B.) zur Übung im Monitorgebrauch oder als praktisches Ziel. Als These dieses Ansatzes könnte man formulieren: Schreiben ist nicht nötig für die Entwicklung der mündlichen Kompetenz.
Gamma-Ray Burst Luminosity Functions Based On a Newly Discovered Correlation Between Peak Spectral Energy and V/V_max
Creators: name: Schmidt, Maarten
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We have discovered a correlation between the observed peak spectral energy E_pk,obs and the average Euclidean value of V/V_max of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). We present the evidence for the correlation in the GUSBAD catalog and use it to derive the luminosity function of GRBs without using any redshifts. The procedure involves dividing GUSBAD GRBs in five spectral classes based on their E_pk,obs. The overall luminosity function is derived assuming that each of the spectral classes contributes a gaussian luminosity function. Their central luminosity is derived from the average observed Euclidean V/V_max. We explore various forms for the GRB rate function GR(z) in predicting redshift distributions of GRBs detected by Swift. We find that GR(z) peaks at a higher redshift than the typical star formation history currently favored in the literature. We consider two examples of GR(z) that successfully predict the observed redshift distribution of Swift GRBs. With the luminosity functions in hand, we convert the E_pk,obs-V/V_max correlation into an E_pk,obs-L_iso correlation and a rest frame E_pk-L_iso correlation. In comparing the E_pk-L_iso correlation with a published correlation based on GRBs with known E_pk,obs and redshifts, we discuss the effect of Malmquist bias.

Learning to read on a battlefield: can action video games serve as a training task for enhancing reading capabilities?
Creators: name: Shlanta, Peter C.
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2015

description: Action video games have been consistently associated over the years with a range of visual benefits, including widened visual attention window, processing speed of visual stimuli, and saccadic eye movement control. These same visual functions are also essential to reading speed and comprehension. However, only video games which involve direct reading challenges, such as pronunciation games, have been studied for an influence on reading capabilities on healthy populations (Schwartz, 1988). If action video games are capable of enhancing the fundamental functions of reading, it is essential to examine the relationship between action video games and reading skill. The purpose of the current study is to examine whether or not action video games can serve as a training task to improve participants' reading speed without sacrificing reading comprehension. Results and future directions are discussed.

description: In this paper, we introduce an asymptotic test procedure to assess the stability of volatilities and cross-volatilites of linear and nonlinear multivariate time series models. The test is very flexible as it can be applied, for example, to many of the multivariate GARCH models established in the literature, and also works well in the case of high dimensionality of the underlying data. Since it is nonparametric, the procedure avoids the difficulties associated with parametric model selection, model fitting and parameter estimation. We provide the theoretical foundation for the test and demonstrate its applicability via a simulation study and an analysis of financial data. Extensions to multiple changes and the case of infinite fourth moments are also discussed.

Psychological warfare in the Hebrew Bible and Biblical Israel
Creators: name: Swanson, James
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2013

description: This dissertation establishes the typology, prevalence and importance of psychological warfare according to the Hebrew Bible. It answers these questions - ?Does the Hebrew Bible portray ancient Israel employing psychological warfare?? And if so, ?How is ancient Israel portrayed implementing psychological warfare?? In answering these questions I provide a clear and comprehensive definition and typology of psychological warfare, based on Hebrew Bible usage. Then I demonstrate its importance to the military and political success of Biblical Israel as portrayed in the Hebrew Bible. The types of psychological warfare portrayed were propaganda - including diplomacy, threats and taunts and advance word; physical intimidation - including terrorism, humiliation of political or military leaders, shaming, and displays or arrays; rallying the troops through words or actions; and divine intervention in each of these types of psychological warfare. Each of these types of psychological warfare are clearly defined; then explored in ancient Near Eastern literature outside of the Hebrew Bible; and then finally examined in the Hebrew Bible.

description: The Conference on Complex Systems (CCS) is one of the most important annual meetings for researchers and educators in the complex systems research community worldwide. In 2019, CCS was held for the first time in Asia, where increasingly more exciting work on complexity has been conducted in recent years. The conference took place in Singapore, where East meets West, accommodating the great minds of both cultures in the dynamic city-country. A one-day satellite symposium on complexity and education was organized by Matthijs Koopmans, Hiroki Sayama, Dimitrios Stamovlasis, Vahid Aryadoust, and me at National Institute of Education, Nanyang Technological University on October 2nd, 2019, carrying on the spirit of adopting a complexity perspective to explore burning and pertinacious issues in education. This satellite specifically addressed the conceptual and methodological issues: what and how nonlinear analytical methods can be used in the empirical investigations of complexity and education.
Bare Machine Computing on ARM devices
Creators: name: Peter, Alexander
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2013

description: This thesis extends on-going Bare Machine Computing (BMC) research at Towson University. BMC applications run on a bare machine without any operating system, kernel, or other centralized support. Many complex applications were designed and implemented on x86 processor using BMC concept. This research consists of applying BMC concept to pervasive devices and their underlying architecture. In particular, it investigates implementing bare machine computing on ARM processors, which are commonly used in many systems including: smart phones, GPS, sensor networks, tablets, gaming and multimedia electronics. Applying BMC concept to pervasive devices poses many challenges. Some of these are addressed in this dissertation. To investigate these issues, a graphics application running on x86 PC is transformed to run on an ARM device. A transformation methodology is developed to map x86 applications to ARM processor. This process addresses many design issues including: boot program, loader, device drivers for ARM and its development environment. It was discovered that ARM architectures are more BMC friendly than x86 processors as they are most commonly used in handheld devices and embedded systems. The transformation process identified that majority of the code can be mapped to run on ARM with minor modifications. It also notes that it is possible to write parts of the program that can run on pervasive devices. The dissertation further explored construction of a simple temperature sensor device to run on bare ARM board with buzzer, graphics and touch screen. This study resulted in understanding the BMC application development process on ARM processors. It also discovered that it is possible to write software for one type of architecture and transform it to run on another with minimal code changes. That is, it addresses the heterogeneity that exists in today's pervasive devices and proposes a BMC paradigm to solve their design issues. The dissertation concludes that it is possible to write common software that runs on many pervasive devices.

description: Das vorliegende Büchlein über eine der „Hauptbarrieren für Deutschlernende" und somit nach den Worten des Autors eine der „bedeutendsten Fehlerquellen im DaF-Unterricht" (S. 9) soll als „didaktisches Hilfsmittel" (Vorwort) verstanden werden, das sich „besonders an DaF-Lehrer im In- und Ausland" (ebd.) wendet. Es behandelt die Problematik der Zuweisung von nominalen Ausdrücken zu den grammatischen Kategorien Maskulinum, Femininum und Neutrum sowohl aus allgemein sprachwissenschaftlicher Sicht wie auch aus dem Blickwickel der Vermittlung im DaF-Unterricht. Mit diesem Ziel werden nach einem Aufriß des Untersuchungsgegenstandes in der Einleitung (Kapitel 1) in Kapitel 2 verschiedene Arbeiten zu den „Genusregularitäten im Deutschen" diskutiert. Kapitel 3 thematisiert die „Didaktische Reduktion" des Genus. Hierbei handelt es sich um Überlegungen zur Vermittlung von Lernregeln für die grammatische Klassifikation von Substantiven. Kapitel 4 präsentiert „Die Behandlung des Genus in DaF-Lehrwerken" und wird durch das mit „Konzeption einer Grammatikeinheit zum Genus" überschriebene Kapitel 5 nach den Vorstellungen des Autors ergänzt, da die Behandlung des Genus in den einzelnen Lehrwerken als unzureichend beurteilt wird. Das Buch schließt mit dem mit „Literatur" überschriebenen Kapitel 6 sowie einem Anhang mit einer Auflistung des Genus der Nomina im vom Autor erarbeiteten Grundwortschatz („Anhang: Alphabetische Liste der Substantive im Grundwortschatz").

description: We show that there are universal high-temperature relations for transport coefficients of plasmas described by a wide class of field theories with gravity duals. These theories can be viewed as strongly coupled large-Nc conformal field theories deformed by one or more relevant operators. The transport coefficients we study are the speed of sound and bulk viscosity, as well as the conductivity, diffusion coefficient, and charge susceptibility of probe U(1) charges. We show that the sound bound v_s^2 <= 1/3 is satisfied at high temperatures in these theories and also discuss bounds on the diffusion coefficient, the conductivity and the bulk viscosity.

description: Hat Frieden wirklich Konjunktur? Man könnte den Eindruck gewinnen, wenn man an eine Vielzahl diesjähriger Autorentreffen, Ausstellungen und an wissenschaftliche Diskussionen über den Westfälischen Frieden vor 350 Jahren denkt, die gerade zur Zeit stattfinden. Ende August 1998 gab es z.B. ein westfälisches Autorentreffen im Kloster Bentlage in Rheine mit einem Literaturprojekt Zum Frieden denken-lesen-schreiben, das vom Kulturforum Rheine und dem Westfälischen Heimatbund durchgeführt wurde. In der Zeit vom 24. Oktober 1998 bis zum 17. Januar 1999 findet die 26. Europaratsausstellung 1648 - Krieg und Frieden in Europa in Museen und Kunsthallen von Münster und Osnabrück statt. Daß solche Projekte Publikumsresonanz finden und daß die Medien darüber berichten, macht aber auch die Notwendigkeit dieser Vorhaben deutlich und weist gleichzeitig auf unleugbare Informationsbedürfnisse und -defizite hin. Der Fremdsprachenunterricht macht dabei keine Ausnahme. „Sprachen lernen macht Freude, denn Sprachen sind wie Wege zu anderen, zum Anderen. Sie erlauben es, Zugang zu Menschen anderer Kulturen zu finden, Sichtweisen und Lebensweisen kennenzulernen, andere Wertesysteme zu entdecken" (Raasch im Vorwort, S. 7). Wer würde einer solchen Aussage nicht zustimmen?

description: Equine herpes virus type-1 (EHV-1) is responsible for a neurological infection in horses called equine herpes myeloencephalopathy (EHM). There is currently no specific treatment or vaccine licensed against the neuropathogenic EHV-1 strain (T953). In this study, the effect of combining the antiviral drugs cidofovir, foscarnet, and acyclovir was investigated. Specifically, we looked at the effect of using cidofovir + foscarnet and cidofovir + acyclovir against neuropathogenic EHV-1 (T953) propagated in equine dermal fibroblast (E. Derm) cells. This is the first study to look at the effect of combining different antiviral drugs against EHV-1 (T953). The combination of cidofovir (4 ?/mL) + acyclovir (10 ?/mL) and cidofovir (7.5 ?/mL) + foscarnet (5 ?/mL) were found to be non-toxic and to have an additive and no effect against EHV-1 (T953), respectively. These drug concentrations were also found to be non-toxic to E. Derm cells.

description: The exceptionally strong coupling realizable between superconducting qubits and photons stored in an on-chip microwave resonator allows for the detailed study of matter-light interactions in the realm of circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED). Here we investigate the resonant interaction between a single transmon-type multilevel artificial atom and weak thermal and coherent fields. We explore up to three photon dressed states of the coupled system in a linear response heterodyne transmission measurement. The results are in good quantitative agreement with a generalized Jaynes-Cummings model. Our data indicates that the role of thermal fields in resonant cavity QED can be studied in detail using superconducting circuits.

description: Die vorliegende Fallstudie illustriert die «Risikoquantifizierung» und «Performance-Messung» eines Kreditportfolios auf dem aktuellen Stand von Theorie und Praxis. Es wird aufgezeigt, dass der erwartete Verlust unbestritten ein nützlicher Indikator in Profitabilitätsanalysen darstellt, aber für eine angemessene Risikobeurteilung völlig unzureichend ist. Zur Würdigung des verfügbaren Risikokapitals werden nützliche Gedankengänge zum Modellrisiko angeregt.

description: DIGITAL TWINS (Digital Twins in the transition to Industry 4.0) is a project funded by the Valencian Institute for Business Competitiveness (IVACE) and the European Union through the European Regional Development Fund (FEDER).

The general objective of the project is to advance in the definition, modeling and construction of Digital Twins in the framework of Industry 4.0, and demonstrate the new dimension of tools and services that can be built on them to improve their transferability and application in the Valencian Community industry. To reach this objective, new technologies will be developed to overcome the main technological barriers: the hyper-digitisation in plant, and the massive data manipulation.

This document, in whitepaper format, summarizes ITI's technological vision on digital twins that is applied in the project.

description: Ontario’s postsecondary education system is at a critical juncture, requiring transformative strategies to address systemic inefficiencies, align educational outcomes with labour market demands, and leverage emerging technologies. This paper proposes three models for systemic reform: (a) institutional consolidation and resource optimization, (b) personalized and technology-enhanced learning pathways, and (c) an innovative private-public funding framework. Each model is grounded in evidence-based practices and designed to ensure the sustainability, equity, and competitiveness of the province’s institutions.The first model focuses on institutional mergers, program rationalization, and real estate optimization to reduce costs, streamline operations, and reallocate resources to high-demand fields such as AI, data science, and healthcare. The second model emphasizes personalized learning pathways powered by AI, micro-credentials, and hybrid education to create flexible, workforce-aligned academic experiences. The third model integrates public funding with private-sector partnerships involving organizations such as Google, AWS, and Microsoft Education to drive financial resilience and technological innovation while addressing equity challenges.Using a phased implementation strategy, this paper evaluates the potential for cost savings, revenue generation, and long-term economic benefits, including enhanced graduate employability and institutional alignment with workforce needs. Legislative reforms and policy updates are proposed to support these initiatives, ensuring scalability and sustainability. By adopting these models, Ontario can position itself as a leader in postsecondary education, fostering institutional excellence, student success, and economic growth in a rapidly evolving global landscape.

description: We construct a large class of non-supersymmetric AdS-like throat geometries in string theory by taking non-supersymmetric orbifolds of supersymmetric backgrounds. The scale of SUSY breaking is the AdS radius, and the dual field theory has explicitly broken supersymmetry. The large hierarchy of energy scales in these geometries is stable. We establish this by showing that the dual gauge theories do not have any relevant operators which are singlets under the global symmetries. When the geometries are embedded in a compact internal space, a large enough discrete subgroup of the global symmetries can still survive to prevent any singlet relevant operators from arising. We illustrate this by embedding one case in a non-supersymmetric orbifold of a Calabi-Yau manifold. These examples can serve as a starting point for obtaining Randall-Sundrum models in string theory, and more generally for constructing composite Higgs or technicolor-like models where strongly coupled dynamics leads to the breaking of electro-weak symmetry. Towards the end of the paper, we briefly discuss how bulk gauge fields can be incorporated by introducing D7-branes in the bulk, and also show how the strongly coupled dynamics can lead to an emergent weakly coupled gauge theory in the IR with matter fields including scalars.

description: Texte sind kulturspezifisch geprägt. Dies wird besonders deutlich, wenn Lernende Texte in einer Fremdsprache produzieren und dabei die Kulturspezifik ihrer Erstsprache für die fremdsprachliche Textproduktion übernehmen. Es ist den Lernenden in den meisten Fällen nicht bewußt, daß es verschiedene Kultur- und Sprachstile gibt (vgl. Hufeisen, 1998). Oft ist ihnen die eigenkulturelle Spezifik nicht einmal bewußt.

description: For a country that still has a rather monolingually anglophone mainstream culture, the efforts that Australia in general, and the State of Victoria in particular have made towards a language policy are truly outstanding -- all the more since the interest in a serious language policy at both the federal and the state levels has only been developing quite recently. Milestones of this development are the 1984 Report on a National Language Policy by the federal Senate Standing Committee on Education and the Arts, and Joseph Lo Bianco's document, National Policy on Languages (Lo Bianco, 1987). Karen Petersen's study Zur Situation des Deutschen als Fremdsprache im multikulturellen Australien: eine Bestandsaufnahme am Beispiel des Bundesstaates Victoria (Petersen, 1993) gives an interesting outsider's view on the development that German as a school subject in Victoria had taken at the time the study was undertaken, in the late eighties and the early nineties.2 Fernandez, Pauwels and Clyne (1994) provide an Australia-wide picture. Comparing these analyses with recent documents on state government policy such as the Languages Other Than English Strategy Plan of 1993 and the Report to the Minister for Education of 1994, both by the Ministerial Advisory Council on Languages other than English (Ministerial Advisory Council, 1993 and 1994), the most recent available edition of the Victorian Certificate of Education Study Design for German (Board of Studies, 1994), the CSF, the Curriculum and Standards Framework Languages Other Than English (Board of Studies, 1995) or the advice brochure for teachers how to implement the CSF, Using the CSF Languages Other Than English (LOTE) (Board of Studies, 1998), one can easily see how far the administrative framework for teaching and learning languages in school has come in the last decade.
Rotational asymmetry of pulsar profiles

description: We analyse the influence of rotation on shapes of pulse profiles of fast-rotating (millisecond) pulsars. Corotation has two opposing effects: 1) the caustic enhancement of the trailing side (TS) by aberration and retardation (AR), which squeezes the emission into a narrower phase interval; 2) the weakening of the TS caused by the asymmetry of curvature radiation about the dipole axis. Analysis of the radii of curvature of electron trajectories in the inertial observer's frame (IOF) enables these two effects to be considered together. We demonstrate that for dipolar magnetic field lines on the TS there exists a `caustic phase' beyond which no emission can be observed. This phase corresponds to the zero (or minimum) curvature of the IOF trajectories and maximum bunching of the emission. The maximum gradient of polarisation angle (PA) in the S-shaped PA curve is also associated with the curvature minimum and occurs at exactly the same phase. The asymmetry of trajectory curvature with respect to the dipole axis affects the curvature emissivity and the efficiency of pair production, suggesting a minimum at the caustic phase. Emission over a fixed range of altitudes, as expected in millisecond pulsars, leads to broad leading profiles and sharp peaks with a cutoff phase on the TS. We apply our results to the main pulse of the 5 ms pulsar J1012+5307.

description: "DaF goes Internet", so überschreibt Breindl (1997) ihre sorgfältig recherchierte und fachkundig kommentierte Zusammenschau DaF-relevanter Internet-Angebote, die die schon recht breiten Nutzungsmöglichkeiten des World Wide Web im Bereich Deutsch als Fremdsprache dokumentiert. Ihre kritischen Ausführungen zur Qualität des bisherigen Netzangebots machen allerdings auch deutlich, daß viele der vom Internet bereitgestellten Materialien dem fachdidaktischen state of the art hinterherhinken und den Qualitätsanforderungen, die an Lehr- bzw. (Selbst)Lernmaterialien zu stellen sind, häufig nicht genügen. Die Fremdsprachendidaktik ist deshalb aufgerufen, die Einsatzmöglichkeiten des Internet als Kommunikationsmedium und die aktuelle Leistungsfähigkeit des World Wide Web als Ressource und Materialangebot für den Fremdsprachenunterricht aus methodischdidaktischer Sicht zu evaluieren und Kriterien für eine angemessene Nutzung des Internet im Fremdsprachenuntericht zu erarbeiten.
Evidence of Early Enrichment of the Galactic Disk by Large-Scale Winds

description: Large-scale homogeneous surveys of Galactic stars may indicate that the elemental abundance gradient evolves with cosmic time, a phenomenon that was not foreseen in existing models of Galactic chemical evolution (GCE). If the phenomenon is confirmed in future studies, we show that this effect, at least in part, is due to large-scale winds that once enriched the disk. These set up the steep abundance gradient in the inner disk (R <14 kpc). At the close of the wind phase, chemical enrichment through accretion of metal-poor material from the halo onto the disk gradually reduced the metallicity of the inner region, whereas a slow increase in the metallicity proceeded beyond the solar circle. Our "wind+infall" model accounts for flattening of the abundance gradient in the inner disk, in good agreement with observations. Accordingly, we propose that enrichment by large-scale winds is a crucial factor for chemical evolution in the disk. We anticipate that rapid flattening of the abundance gradient is the hallmarks of disk galaxies with significant central bulges.
