title: Wir und die Anderen oder warum Kultur zugleich heterogen und nicht heterogen ist – Fragen an den Kulturbegriff und die Kulturvermittlung im DaF-Unterricht
Creators: name: Gehrmann, Siegfried
Publisher: name: Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Darmstadt
Year: 2023

description: Die Kulturvermittlung im Fremdsprachenunterricht steht vor dem Problem, dass sie sich auf keinen in sich kohärenten Kulturbegriff beziehen kann, der von den Besonderheiten und Beschränkungen interkulturellen Lernens im Fremdsprachenunterricht ausgeht. Ebenso ist unklar, ob angesichts der Vermischung von Lebensformen nationale Kulturen heute noch voneinander abgegrenzt und wie im Fremdsprachenunterricht üblich miteinander verglichen werden können. Der Beitrag geht diesen Fragen nach und versucht, auf Basis einer kulturtheoretischen Debatte Kriterien für einen auf den Fremdsprachenunterricht bezogenen Kulturbegriff zu entwickeln. Ausgangspunkt sind jeweils Analysen von konkreten interkulturellen Begegnungssituationen sowie eine Klärung der Beziehung zwischen dem Eigenen und dem Fremden als Grundoperation fremdsprachlichen interkulturellen Lernens.

description: Die vorliegende Einführung ist die Neubearbeitung eines bereits etablierten Titels (urspr. 1994). Sie richtet sich primär an Bachelor-Studierende im Einführungsmodul Deutsch als Fremdsprache sowie an Dozentinnen und Dozenten der Auslandsgermanistik. Der Autor stellt die wesentlichen Bereiche aus Theorie und Praxis des Studienfachs DaF vor wie Lerntypen, Unterrichtsinteraktion, Landeskunde, literarische Texte, Lehrmaterialien und Einsatz von Medien. Theoretische Ansätze zum Zweitspracherwerb, zur Fremdsprachenvermittlung und zur Sprachlehrforschung runden das Buch ab. Die Bandbreite der behandelten Themen ist groß, allerdings bleiben sprachwissenschaftliche Grundlagen zur deutschen Sprache als Grundlage für den eigentlichen Lehrgegenstand ausgeklammert. Abgesehen davon widmet sich der Band zahlreichen Aspekten des Faches DaF mit dem Ziel, die unterschiedlichen Möglichkeiten des Erwerbs des Deutschen und verschiedene Einflussfaktoren darauf vorzustellen und für die Lehrpraxis umzusetzen. Dabei finden sowohl die historische Perspektive als auch die Auswirkungen durch digitale Medien Berücksichtigung. Ein Schwerpunkt liegt auf der Behandlung relevanter Termini und auf der Berufspraxis.

description: We investigate the collapse of differentially rotating supermassive stars (SMSs) by means of 3+1 hydrodynamic simulations in general relativity. We particularly focus on the onset of collapse to understand the final outcome of collapsing SMSs. We find that the estimated ratio of the mass between the black hole (BH) and the surrounding disk from the equilibrium star is roughly the same as the results from numerical simulation. This suggests that the picture of axisymmetric collapse is adequate, in the absence of nonaxisymmetric instabilities, to illustrate the final state of the collapse. We also find that quasi-periodic gravitational waves continue to be emitted after the quasinormal mode frequency has decayed. We furthermore have found that when the newly formed BH is almost extreme Kerr, the amplitude of the quasi-periodic oscillation is enhanced during the late stages of the evolution. Geometrical features, shock waves, and instabilities of the fluid are suggested as a cause of this amplification behaviour. This alternative scenario for the collapse of differentially rotating SMSs might be observable by LISA.

description: Die von Roger Fornoff vorgelegte umfangreiche Monographie – es handelt sich um seine Habilitationsschrift – reiht sich ein in die stetig wachsende Zahl an Publikationen zur Relevanz und zum Potential der kulturwissenschaftlichen Gedächtnisforschung für die Fremdsprachendidaktik. Deutsch als Fremdsprache (DaF) scheint hier eine gewisse Vorreiterrolle einzunehmen – nicht zuletzt ist dies sicher der Tatsache geschuldet, dass das Thema gerade im deutschsprachigen Raum ein breites Echo findet, viele der grundlegenden Publikationen im deutschsprachigen Raum entstanden und gerade zu deutschsprachigen Erinnerungsorten zahlreiche Essaysammlungen erschienen sind, die geeignete Reibungsflächen für die theoretische und empirische Auseinandersetzung mit dem Thema bieten können. Um es gleich vorwegzunehmen, Fornoffs Arbeit stellt einen gewichtigen Meilenstein in der Diskussion zur Theorie und Praxis der Landeskunde für das Fach DaF dar. Ihren besonderen Mehrwert sehe ich zum einen für die landeskundlich-kulturwissenschaftlichen Grundsatzdiskussionen, die im Fach geführt werden, zum anderen in einer sehr willkommenen und notwendigen Erweiterung der empirischen Basis, auf der sich dieser Diskurs bewegt. Darüber hinaus wird in dem Band ein anwendungsorientiertes Vermittlungskonzept diskutiert, das der praxisorientierten Ausrichtung der landeskundlich-kulturellen Komponente des Faches DaF entgegenkommt und als Modell für andere Lehr-Lern-Konstellationen Relevanz gewinnen kann.
title: Preparation for Remarriage: Utilization of Different Forms and Their Rated Helpfulness
Creators: name: Miller, Julie J.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2007

description: Remarriage has gained special attention in the past couple of decades from clinicians, researchers, and educators because of the unique issues faced by individuals entering such a relationship. Recognition of these issues increased marriage practitioners' hope that a shift in the social climate had led individuals to prepare for remarriage through various means. This study sought to, one, gain a current perspective on remarriage preparation; two, learn how individuals rate the helpfulness of preparation; and three, note any differences in remarital quality (remarital satisfaction and adjustment) and perceptions of preparedness between individuals who did or did not participate in preparation. Data were analyzed from the Utah Newlywed Study. Results showed that most individuals prepared by talking to others or read ing written information, and most individuals who participated in some form of preparation found it helpful. Despite a high number of participants who reported remarriage preparation as helpful, nonparticipants were more plentiful than participants. The majority of those who did not participate reported preparation as unnecessary. Remarital quality varied based on the preparation form considered. Based on the results, it was suggested that marriage practitioners should do more to increase individuals' views that preparation is valuable, as those who participated generally found it to be helpful.

title: Kindergarten Teachers' Developmentally Appropriate Beliefs and Practices and Perceived Problems of Kindergarten Transition
Creators: name: Mecham, K. Marie Sorenson
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2007

description: This study examined kindergarten teachers' developmentally appropriate beliefs and practices, and kindergarten teachers' perceived problems of children entering kindergarten. The relationship between kindergarten teachers' beliefs and practices and their perceived problems of children entering kindergarten was studied, as was the relationship between teachers' beliefs and practices and their perception of children's successful kindergarten entry.
Participants included kindergarten teachers from eight Utah school districts. Teachers were surveyed using both the Transition Practices, and the Teacher Beliefs and Practices Survey. From these surveys, data were collected on kindergarten teachers' beliefs and practices, and perceptions of problems children may have upon entering kindergarten.
Findings indicated that kindergarten teachers reported that most often children have problems due to " lack of academic skill s," "difficulty following directions," and difficulty working independent!/' About half of the children were perceived as having a very successful entry into kindergarten. Of teachers who responded, 72% felt that one fifth or more of their current kindergarten class was not ready for kindergarten upon entry.
Overall the kindergarten teachers in this study were considered developmentally appropriate, but teachers' reported developmentally appropriate beliefs were higher than their reported developmentally appropriate practices. The highest reported beliefs consisted of reading daily with children, helping children develop self-esteem, helping children develop social skills, guiding children's behavior in positive ways, and using individualized plans with children who have major behavior problems. The highest reported practices consisted of using music in the classroom, integrating various subjects, allowing children to experiment with writing, using manipulative in the classroom, and not using time-out as a means of discipline.
The findings show a trend in which teachers with higher beliefs reported that'1ack of academic skills' was a problem less often than the teachers with lower reported beliefs. Teachers with higher reported practices reported that a"non-academic preschool experience' was a problem for children more often than teachers with lower reported practices. Findings also indicated a trend in which teachers with higher beliefs reported a smaller percentage of children having a "difficult or very difficult" entry into kindergarten than did teachers who reported lower developmentally appropriate beliefs. The implications of these findings are discussed.

description: The statistical physics properties of regular and irregular Sourlas codes are investigated in this paper by the cavity method. At finite temperatures, the free energy density of these coding systems is derived and compared with the result obtained by the replica method. In the zero temperature limit, the Shannon's bound is recovered in the case of infinite-body interactions while the code rate is still finite. However, the decoding performance as obtained by the replica theory has not considered the zero-temperature entropic effect. The cavity approach is able to consider the ground-state entropy. It leads to a set of evanescent cavity fields propagation equations which further improve the decoding performance, as confirmed by our numerical simulations on single instances. For the irregular Sourlas code, we find that it takes the trade-off between good dynamical property and high performance of decoding. In agreement with the results found from the algorithmic point of view, the decoding exhibits a first order phase transition as occurs in the regular code system with three-body interactions. The cavity approach for the Sourlas code system can be extended to consider first-step replica-symmetry-breaking.

description: Depression in older adults and their methods of coping were examined using a mixed methods approach. The data were from the quality of Life Study (QLS), an ancillary study of the NIH-funded Cache County Study on Memory Heath and Aging (CCSMHA). Forty-two individuals completed a qualitative interview, the Center for Epidemiological Studies- Depression scale )CES-D), Revised Ways of Coping measure, and Diagnostic Interview Schedule (DIS).
The sample faced many life challenges and sought help from spouses first, then other family members, and then friends, clergy, and physicians. Blames Others and Wishful Thinking were significantly associated with depression and Religious Coping was significantly associated with no depression. The majority of participants who referenced reframing and religion as coping strategies in their interviews did not have depression as measured by the CESD and DIS. Belief in a purpose to life appeared to be important for no depression.

title: Do L2 French or L2 English learners write better L3 German texts? The in-fluence of prior foreign language study on L3 German writing skills: the GaE/F Project

description: Many learners of German as a foreign language (L3) are learning English or French as L2 before commencing their study of German, especially students from countries where English or French is, among other languages, the second official language or a common language in the educational system. For example: Among the approximately 219.000 non-German students who, in 2014, studied at German universities 38.000 were from China or India (L2 English) and 11.000 were from Cameroon or Morocco (L2 French) (DAAD 2015: 14-15). University-level German instructors at the Technische Universität Darmstadt have reported a higher level of competence in producing German texts by students who have learned French as L2 before German than those who have learned English as L2. Multilingualism researchers have investigated the impact of prior foreign language study on the learning of other languages. These influences include the learner’s personal experiences while learning a foreign language, the development of individual learning strategies and the ability to self-motivate. Just as important, however, are the structural and cultural aspects that affect the learning of additional foreign languages, namely the structural differences between the languages to be studied compared to already mastered languages, the teaching and learning culture and, last but not least, the intercultural differences in the norms governing the production of text types (cf. e.g. Herdina & Jessner 2002; Hufeisen 2002, 2010; Jessner 2006; Mißler 2000). On this basis, the project “German as a foreign language after English or French” (GaE/F) [Deutsch als Fremdsprache nach Englisch oder Französisch (DaFnE/F)] was initiated to investigate how the learning of L2 English or L2 French may affect the learning of L3 German, and, in particular, how it influences the production of appropriate German language texts as assessed by native speakers. It will investigate which linguistic features can be found in such written language and how their occurrence can be explained. Finally the aim is to examine the issue whether the prior learning of French or English, respectively, is more useful for developing German writing skills. For several years the Division of Linguistics and Multilingualism at the Technische Universität Darmstadt and preparatory course instructors have been collecting a corpus of authentic university-level written texts that, at present, consists of approximately 160 samples. Because the project is currently at its very beginning, a pilot study has to be carried out to identify possibly significant features for the comparison of written texts (i.e. connectors, parataxis/hypotaxis, word formation, sentence structure etc.) and to develop research tools for future investigations.

description: We study the mid-infrared (MIR) properties of galaxies in 30 massive galaxy clusters at 0.025x10^10L_sun) within r_200, finding a steady increase in the fraction with redshift from ~3% at z=0.02 to ~10% by z=0.30, and an rms cluster-to-cluster scatter about this trend of 0.03. The best-fit redshift evolution model is of the form f_SF ~ (1+z)^5.7, which is stronger redshift evolution than that of L*_IR in both clusters and the field. We find that, statistically, this excess is associated with galaxies found at large cluster-centric radii, implying that the MIR Butcher-Oemler effect can be explained by a combination of both the global decline in star-formation in the universe since z~1 and enhanced star formation in the infall regions of clusters at intermediate redshifts. This picture is supported by a simple infall model based on the Millennium Simulation semi-analytic galaxy catalogs, whereby star-formation in infalling galaxies is instantaneously quenched upon their first passage through the cluster, in that the observed radial trends of f_SF trace those inferred from the simulations. We also find that f_SF does not depend on simple indicators of the dynamical state of clusters, including the offset between the brightest cluster galaxy and the peak of the X-ray emission. This is consistent with the picture described above in that most new star-formation in clusters occurs in the infall regions, and is thus not sensitive to the details of cluster-cluster mergers in the core regions.

Anhand von Interviews mit Lehrkräften, die in der französischen Schweiz Englisch nach Deutsch als zweite Fremdsprache unterrichten, werden ihre Erfahrungen mit der Methode, ihre Haltung hinsichtlich deren Sinnhaftigkeit sowie mögliche Hindernisse für deren Umsetzung herausgearbeitet. Entgegen der häufig in der Literatur zu findenden Aussage, dass es sich (nur) um eine Haltungsfrage handelt, ob Lehrkräfte mehrsprachigkeitsdidaktische Prinzipien umsetzen, konnten wir feststellen, dass es auch eine Frage der individuellen sprachlichen Ressourcen ist.
title: Congruence of Perceptions of Motivation Between Adolescent Clients, Their Therapist, and Parent
Creators: name: Johnson, Amberly R.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2007

description: The purpose of this study was to explore perceptions of adolescent's motivation to change in therapy, specifically while residing in a residential treatment center (RTC) and participating in family therapy. Motivation for change was examined in three contexts. The first context for examining the adolescent's motivation for change was in re lat ion to their stage of therapy. The second and third contexts for examining the adolescent 's motivation for change was in relation to perceptions the adolescent's therapi st and parent had of their motivation to change. In addition, the study explored whether there was a relationship between the congruence of perceptions of motivation to change between adolescent and therapist, and adolescent and his or her parent with the adolescent's progress in therapy. A sample of I 0 adolescent clients in a RTC completed the University of Rhode Island Change Assessment (U RICA). The sample also included the adolescents' I 0 parents and four therapists. Parents and therapists completed revised lr versions of the URICA developed to obtain therapists' and parents' perceptions of adolescents' motivation to change. The findings indicated that most adolescents reported scores suggesting that their level of motivation would be classified as in the preparation stage of change. Data from the study also suggested that therapists and parents perceived adolescents as higher on the pre contemplation sub scale ofURICA than the adolescents perceived themselves. No support was found for the theoretical relationship between congruence in perceptions of motivation and progress in therapy, but future research needs to determine if a relationship exists given the inability to examine this relationship statistically due to limitations of the study. Considerations for future research are given along with implications for marriage and family therapy.

description: Die mehrsprachigkeitsdidaktische Unterrichtseinheit „Deutsch und weiter!“ wurde im Schuljahr 2016-17 in zehn Deutschkursen der finnischen gymnasialen Oberstufe mit fortgeschrittenen Lernenden (mindestens sechs Jahre Deutsch) durchgeführt. Deutsch (sowie Englisch und Schwedisch) diente als Ausgangspunkt für die Erkundung weiterer germanischer Sprachen bzw. Dialekte (Niederländisch, Plattdeutsch, Jiddisch o.ä.). Über einen „germanischen Sprachvergleich“ in der Art des EuroComGerm (vgl. Hufeisen & Marx 2014) zielt die Unterrichtseinheit darauf ab, bei fortgeschrittenen Deutschlernenden ein basales Lese- (und Hör-)-verstehen aufzubauen und ein anfängliches Bewusstsein für Interkomprehension zu schaffen. Mithilfe des Vergleichens und Erschließens der fremden Sprachformen und des Einsatzes der vorhandenen Deutsch-(Schwedisch-Englisch-)Kenntnisse wird ein Aufbau bzw. Ausbau von Sprachbewusstheit und Sprachlernmotivation angestrebt. Darüber hinaus können den OberstufenschülerInnen so kleine Einblicke in philologische Forschungsbereiche wie Sprachgeschichte, Sprachverwandtschaft, sprachliche Variation etc. gegeben werden, die u.U. Interesse für das Sprachenstudium wecken. Der Beitrag berichtet über Material und Durchführung der Unterrichtseinheit und gibt Einblicke in das Feedback der SchülerInnen.

Dabei sind die ganz unterschiedlichen Sprachlernhintergründe der SchülerInnen (CLIL, Immersion, herkömmlicher Fremdsprachenunterricht) zu berücksichtigen; sie werden zu Beginn des Beitrags besprochen. Konkrete Beispiele sollen anschließend zeigen, wie man die Kenntnisse der SchülerInnen aus verschiedenen vorher gelernten Sprachen, ihr Weltwissen und auch ihr lernstrategisches Wissen im Deutschunterricht nutzen kann. Auch wird die Einstellung der SchülerInnen zu den verschiedenen Sprachen besprochen. Die finnischen SchülerInnen empfinden Englisch häufig als leicht und cool, Deutsch dagegen als schwer. Wie man eine solche Einstellung im Unterricht thematisieren kann, wird als letztes diskutiert.
Time-domain scars: resolving the spectral form factor in phase space

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We study the relationship of the spectral form factor with quantum as well as classical probabilities to return. Defining a quantum return probability in phase space as a trace over the propagator of the Wigner function allows us to identify and resolve manifolds in phase space that contribute to the form factor. They can be associated to classical invariant manifolds such as periodic orbits, but also to non-classical structures like sets of midpoints between periodic points. By contrast to scars in wavefunctions, these features are not subject to the uncertainty relation and therefore need not show any smearing. They constitute important exceptions from a continuous convergence in the classical limit of the Wigner towards the Liouville propagator. We support our theory with numerical results for the quantum cat map and the harmonically driven quartic oscillator.

Aus der Forschungsperspektive handelt es sich um eine interessante Sprachenkonstellation, denn im Unterschied zu der Muttersprache gehören beide L2 sowie L3 zu einer Sprachenfamilie und weisen somit typologische Nähe auf. Wie aktivieren die Lernenden beim Lesen in L3 Deutsch auf dem Anfängerniveau die beiden L2 Englisch und Schwedisch? Welche Faktoren beeinflussen die Aktivierung der einen oder der anderen L2? In diesem Beitrag werden Entscheidungen bzgl. des Forschungsdesigns präsentiert und anhand eines Fallbeispiels ein Verfahren zur Datenauswertung zur Diskussion gestellt.

Ihre Analyse bildet die Basis für eine inhaltliche Grundlegung des Begriffs plurilinguale Kompetenz, welche als Lernziel für plurilinguale Kurse unter anderem Sprachenwechsel, Codeswitching, Sprachenmittlung und Transfer umfasst. Für die Mehrsprachigkeitsdidaktik ergänzt der Begriff plurilinguale Kompetenz den allgemeineren Begriff kommunikative Kompetenz und betont die immanent mehrsprachigen Aspekte.

description: Applying purely thermodynamic arguments it has been shown that temperature fluctuations in a sample can be represented by introducing appropriate 'series temperature generator’ or 'shunt heat current generator'. The temperature fluctuations lead to resistance fluctuations in the sample. These resistance fluctuations due to temperature fluctuations can be detected as voltage-fluctuations (temperature noise) by using a sensing direct current through the sample. Statistical-mechanical arguments are used to obtain theoretical expressions for spectral density of heat current fluctuations in a metallic conductor in terms of the macroscopic properties of the conductor. Since the electrons are carriers of heat and electric currents in a metal, heat and electric current fluctuations are correlated. Spectral density of cross-correlation between electric and heat current is derived. Statistical considerations are extended to the calculation of the steady state spectral density of heat current fluctuations between two black bodies in radiative contact. Temperature noise in a system in which there is only a partial correlation between temperatures at different points along the length at any time (isothermal System) is compared with a system in which there is a complete correlation between temperatures at all points along the length at any time (Single Temperature System). Experimental results indicate that for the metal filament used Nyquist theorem can be applied at the operating temperature. For frequencies close to the characteristic frequency of the system it is observed that there is an increase in noise temperature of the filament due to temperature noise.

description: Eine durchgängige Sprachbildung und die Beschulung von Neuzugewanderten an beruflichen Schulen erst in Berufsintegrationsklassen und dann in Regelklassen erfordert die Bereitstellung angemessener Unterrichtskonzepte und - materialien. Das Unterrichtsprinzip „Berufssprache Deutsch“ erfüllt diese Forderung durch einen neuen Lehrplan und ein berufsorientiertes Sprachbildungskonzept mit Musterszenarien für unterschiedliche Ausbildungsberufe. Anhand von neu entwickelten Unterrichtsmaterialien wird in diesem Beitrag die Umsetzung dieses Konzepts anhand eines Lehrwerks für Berufsintegrationsvorklassen in Bayern veranschaulicht.

description: We present a study of the dynamics and structural changes for trans-1,2-dichloroethylene between high and low density liquids using neutron scattering techniques (diffraction, small angle neutron scattering and time of flight spectroscopy) and molecular dynamics simulations. We show that changes in the short range ordering of molecules goes along with a change of the molecular dynamics: both structure and dynamics of the high density liquid are more cooperative than those of the low density liquid. The microscopic mechanism underlying the cooperative motions in the high density liquid has been found to be related to the backscattering of molecules due to a strong correlation of molecular ordering.

title: Financial Management and Financial Problems As They Relate to Marital Satisfaction in Early Marriage
Creators: name: Kerkmann, Barbara C.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1998

description: The financial management habits and perceptions of young married couples were examined, as well as their financial problems and perceptions of their problems' magnitude in an attempt to assess the relationship of these financial factors to marital satisfaction. A survey was delivered to 604 residents of family student housing at Utah State University. The spouse who predominantly handled family finances was asked to complete the survey. By using an incentive for completing the survey, a response of 51.32% was obtained. It was hypothesized that both financial management practices and problems would be related to a couple's reported satisfaction with their marriage. It was further hypothesized that there would be a difference in how husbands and wives would report the relationship between financial management, financial problems, and marital satisfaction.
As hypothesized, financial management behaviors as well as perceptions of how well finances were managed were found to be significantly correlated with the respondents' marital satisfaction. Likewise, financial problems and perceived magnitude of financial problems were found to be significantly related to marital satisfaction. According to a regression analysis, perceptions may be more predictive of marital satisfaction than actual financial management practices. Contrary to the hypothesis, there were no consistent, clear differences between husbands and wives in the effect of financial variables on marital satisfaction for this sample.
In general, these findings support the widely accepted, but rarely studied, assumption that finances can affect a marital or committed couple relationship. These effects involve actual behaviors as well a s perceptions of behaviors.
European Turned Ivories at the Chinese Imperial Court: A Study in Early Modern Cross-Cultural Knowledge Transmission (1617-1735)

description: In the early 2000s, the Palace Museum in Beijing discovered various early modern European lathe-turned objects in the museum’s storage spaces. Fruitful and understudied, such works offer valuable entry points for interrogating cross-cultural exchanges of artisanal, mathematical, scientific, and medicinal knowledge. By providing a chronological history of the known European turned works that entered the Ming and Qing Chinese imperial collections, as well as examining the Jesuit missionaries employed by the court of the Kangxi Emperor (1661-1722), this paper investigates exchanges of artisanal and mathematical knowledge between sixteenth and eighteenth-century China and Europe.

description: Thin Pd wires (diameter 50 micrometers) surface oxidized through Joule heating have been loaded in a Hydrogen atmosphere at pressures in the range 1 - 10 bar. The atomic ratio H/Pd reached in the experimental conditions has been evaluated through its relationship with the electrical resistivity of Hydrogen loaded Pd. It was found that the loading rate of the surface oxidized Pd wires is exceptionally higher than with the untreated ones (full loading in a few minutes as compared with several hours). It was also observed that surface treated wires with H/Pd ≥0.75, don't lose Hydrogen even when Joule heated at temperatures up to about 150 °C in a Hydrogen atmosphere. When the wire temperature exceeds 150 °C (applied power about 12.4 W) there is an anomalous heat generation (about 3.5 W). During an experimental test, comprising feeding the wire with stepwise increasing power values each for 500-600 seconds, followed by a period of zero power, it was observed that when the power was cut off after the period of powering with 14 W, the wire spontaneously heated for about 70 seconds releasing an estimated heat of 1650 ±; 160 J, corresponding to 3940 ±; 400 Kcal per mole of Pd. Peak power was ~ 16 W. The wire resistance spontaneously reaches a value R/Ro = 2.40 and then slowly dropped to the original value of 1.80 at room temperature. In a second experimental test with the same wire similar phenomena have been observed although of lower intensity but lasting over 3000 seconds. After 16 W powering for 500 seconds, the power was cut off. Again the wire heated spontaneously releasing an anomalous heat of 3600 ±; 360 J, corresponding to some 13200 ±; 130 Kcal per mole of Pd. The peak power was ~ 3 W. The wire resistance increased spontaneously up to R/Ro = 2.01 and then slowly decreased down to 1.90.

description: JANUS is a NASA small explorer class mission which just completed phase A and was intended for a 2013 launch date. The primary science goals of JANUS are to use high redshift (66 XRFs/GRBs, which can be further studied by other instruments. XRFM would use a coded mask aperture design with hybrid CMOS Si detectors. It would be sensitive to XRFs/GRBs with flux in excess of approximately 240 mCrab. The spacecraft is designed to rapidly slew to source positions following a GRB trigger from XRFM. XRFM instrument design parameters and science goals are presented in this paper.
