In Pursuit of Sustainability: A Study of Marketing and Fundraising Practices within NCAA Division I Track and Field Programs
Creators: name: Roberts, Logan W.
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2013

description: National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I track and field programs have been a target of elimination in recent decades (Irick, 2011). As the money surrounding the Bowl Championship Series and the NCAA Division I Men's basketball tournament increases, the incentives to pump resources into the sports with the largest potential for return continue to escalate, leaving nonrevenue programs in jeopardy of existing (Marburger & Hogshead-Makar, 2003). Coaches can play an active role in marketing their program and fundraising to support their budgets and overcome the threat of elimination (Weight, 2010; Cooper, 2012). Quantitative and qualitative research techniques examined current NCAA Division I coach's perceptions of track and field fundraising and marketing practices. The responses form a foundation for the strategies of the leaders in marketing and fundraising efforts in order to enhance program demand and thus facilitate increased supply and sustainability of the programs.

description: Anhand von VALIE EXPORTs Serie der Körperkonfigurationen und deren Verwendung im Film Unsichtbare Gegner historisiert dieser Artikel die Frage des Materials Körper hinsichtlich von Mediatisierung, fotografischer Reproduktion und künstlerischer Nachbearbeitung. Die strukturellen Machtanalysen von Althusser, Foucault und Deleuze sowie feministische Theorien der 1970er und 1980er Jahre werden an EXPORTs Praxis aus einem zeitgenössischen Kontext der ausgedehnten Performancekunst beleuchtet. Through analysis of VALIE EXPORT’s series Body Configurations and its use in the film Invisible Adversaries, this article historicizes the body as material from the standpoints of mediatization, photographic reproduction, and retrospective artistic modification. The structural analyses of power in the writings of Althusser, Foucault, and Deleuze, as well as feminist theories of the 1970s and 1980s, are illuminated through EXPORT’s practice, essentially in a contemporary context of expanded performance art.

Tunneling and speedup in quantum optimization for permutation-symmetric problems

description: Tunneling is often claimed to be the key mechanism underlying possible speedups in quantum optimization via quantum annealing (QA), especially for problems featuring a cost function with tall and thin barriers. We present and analyze several counterexamples from the class of perturbed Hamming-weight optimization problems with qubit permutation symmetry. We first show that, for these problems, the adiabatic dynamics that make tunneling possible should be understood not in terms of the cost function but rather the semi-classical potential arising from the spin-coherent path integral formalism. We then provide an example where the shape of the barrier in the final cost function is short and wide, which might suggest no quantum advantage for QA, yet where tunneling renders QA superior to simulated annealing in the adiabatic regime. However, the adiabatic dynamics turn out not be optimal. Instead, an evolution involving a sequence of diabatic transitions through many avoided level-crossings, involving no tunneling, is optimal and outperforms adiabatic QA. We show that this phenomenon of speedup by diabatic transitions is not unique to this example, and we provide an example where it provides an exponential speedup over adiabatic QA. In yet another twist, we show that a classical algorithm, spin vector dynamics, is at least as efficient as diabatic QA. Finally, in a different example with a convex cost function, the diabatic transitions result in a speedup relative to both adiabatic QA with tunneling and classical spin vector dynamics.

An Examination of the Motives for Athletic Donor Lapse at a Large NCAA Division I Institution
Creators: name: Hayden, Robert Matthew Ira
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2010

description: This study examined the reasons cited by inactive athletic donors at a major NCAA Division I institution for their decision to lapse. A survey was emailed to all inactive donors with a valid email address on file with the athletic fundraising organization at the institution in question. The survey collected demographic information, followed by levels of agreement with the effect that a number of different service and external factors had on their decision to lapse as donors. Descriptive statistics were run on the data, and then a series of chi-square tests were run to determine the relationships that existed between different demographic criteria (including male/female, distance of residence from the university, alumni status, and years of membership) and the reasons cited for lapse. The most frequently-cited factors for lapse were identified and discussed, and the significant relationships between demographic groups and the factors for donor lapse were analyzed and discussed.

Operation Video. The Use of Images as Visual Agents in Struggles over Representation
Creators: name: Adorf, Sigrid
Publisher: name: FKW // Zeitschrift für Geschlechterforschung und visuelle Kultur
Year: 2014

description: This paper focuses on the notions of the gaze and proximity in visual culture, and their relation to the sense of distancing on the one hand and tactile sensations on the other. Jean Baudrillard, a representative agent of postmodernism, argues in his video studies that the circulation of electronic images causes external reality as a subject to vanish. For Baudrillard, the screen aesthetics of close-ups have an inherent obscenity, which he compares with the effect of gender change as a disturbingly unstable notion. Based on the analysis of various video works, among others by Lisa Steele, Lili Dujourie, Lynn Hershman, Adrian Piper and Eleanor Antin, this paper argues that some of these works, above all those from the 1970s, run counter to Baudrillard’s basic claim. Rather than foregrounding a dissolving or vanishing subject, these works feature a subject that discovers itself – albeit differently. Discussing selected examples of early video discourse, and its different mode of seeing, the paper delineates some of the shifts that have occurred in the discourse on subjectivity. This essay is based on my doctoral dissertation (Operation Video. Eine Technik des Nahsehens und ihr spezifisches Subjekt: die Videokünstlerin der 1970er Jahre. Bielefeld, Transcript, 2008). The present version was first delivered at the ASCA Workshop Engaging Objects at the University of Amsterdam in March 2008, and has not been previously published in English.

Second-order Green's function perturbation theory for periodic systems

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Chemical Physics (physics.chem-ph)

description: Despite recent advances, systematic quantitative treatment of the electron correlation problem in extended systems remains a formidable task. Systematically improvable Green's function methods capable of quantitatively describing weak and at least qualitatively strong correlations appear promising candidates for computational treatment of periodic systems. We present a periodic implementation of temperature-dependent self-consistent 2nd-order Green's function method (GF2), where the self-energy is evaluated in the basis of atomic orbitals. Evaluating the real-space self-energy in atomic orbitals and solving the Dyson equation in $\mathbf{k}$-space are the key components of a computationally feasible algorithm. We apply this technique to the 1D hydrogen lattice - a prototypical crystalline system with a realistic Hamiltonian. By analyzing the behavior of the spectral functions, natural occupations, and self-energies, we claim that GF2 is able to recover metallic, band insulating, and at least qualitatively Mott regimes. We observe that the iterative nature of GF2 is essential to the emergence of the metallic and Mott phases.

Year: 2014

description: Der rezente ‚material turn‘ fordert mehr kritische Aufmerksamkeit für Textur, Haptik, materielle Beschaffenheit von Medien sowie die Einbeziehung von nicht-menschlicher agency in Analysen von Interaktionen zwischen Mensch und Objekt. Der vorliegende Beitrag beleuchtet das Potenzial dieser Öffnung zur Materialität für eine feministische Auseinandersetzung mit amerikanischem Exploitation- und Trash-Kino ab den späten 1960er Jahren. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf exzessiven Sound-Materialitäten: auf Störgeräusch, Verschmutzung, Verzerrung und Abnutzung in der Tonspur von Herschell Gordon Lewis ‘ Biker-Exploitation-Klassiker She-Devils on Wheels (1968). Mit Blick auf spätere queere und feministische Film- und Videoarbeiten (v.a. von Michael/Meredith Lucas), welche direkt auf exzessive Sound-Texturen in Lewis‘ Werk Bezug nehmen, thematisiert der Beitrag zwischen Bedeutung und Affekt oszillierende Resonanzen, welche Dichotomien von Sprache und Materialität zu sprengen versprechen. Current developments in cultural studies and queer feminist theory point towards a ‚material turn‘, which calls for addressing the material bases of media etc. as significant and potentially agential in political and cultural dynamics. This turn aims towards a deconstruction of modern binaries (mind vs. body, culture vs. matter, meaning vs. affect), which also shape hegemonic conceptions of sex, gender and desire. This paper explores the critical potential of this turn for a feminist engagement with American exploitation cinema of the later 1960s. I focus on excessive sound textures: on noise, distortion, dirt and wear in the audio track of Herschell Gordon Lewis’ She-Devils on Wheels. By tracing the affective-meaningful resonances sonic dirt may activate, I ask how material criticism provides productive perspectives in dealing with two central, yet problematic categories in feminist cultural criticism: agency and the sovereign subject.

description: Considerable work has focused on the use of epitaxial strain to engineer domain structures in ferroic materials. Here, we revisit the observed reduction of domain variants in rhombohedral BiFeO3 films on rare-earth scandate substrates. Prior work has attributed the reduction of domain variants to anisotropic in-plane strain, but our findings suggest that the monoclinic distortion of the substrate, resulting from oxygen octahedral rotation, is the driving force for variant selection. We study epitaxial BiFeO3 DyScO3 (110)o heterostructures with and without ultrathin, cubic SrTiO3 buffer layers as a means to isolate the effect of symmetry mismatch on the domain formation. Two variant stripe domains are observed in films grown directly on DyScO3, while four-variant domains are observed in films grown on SrTiO3 buffered DyScO3 when the buffer layer is >2 nm thick. This work provides insights into the role of the substrate beyond just lattice mismatch in manipulating and controlling domain structure evolution in materials.

Modeling the multiwavelength emission from G73.9+0.9: Gamma-rays from a SNR-MC interaction

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: G73.9+0.9 has been classified as a probable shell-type supernova remnant (SNR), although it has also been suggested that this object could be a pulsar wind nebula (PWN). Here, a broadband model of the non-thermal emission of G73.9+0.9 from radio to gamma-rays is presented. The model includes a new gamma-ray observation obtained with analysis of 7 years of data from the Fermi-LAT telescope. Above 200 MeV the source is detected with a significance of 13-sigma and the spectrum of the radiation is best described by a power law with an index of -2.5. The leptonic mechanisms are hard to reconcile with the measured radio and gamma-ray SED. A PWN origin for the high-energy emission is also not very likely, due to the lack of detection of pulsars and of X-ray emission in the region, as well as from the shape of the gamma-ray spectrum. Given the possibility that the object is interacting with molecular clouds, a hadronic origin of the high-energy emission is more likely, and the spectral properties of the cosmic rays responsible for this radiation are derived.

Aphrodite oder die Kunst der Schaumgeburt. Seifenschaum als genderkritisches Material / The Art of Aphrogenesis. Fluid Foam as Gender-Critical Material
Creators: name: Finke, Marcel
Publisher: name: FKW // Zeitschrift für Geschlechterforschung und visuelle Kultur
Year: 2014

description: Flüssige Schäume und insbesondere der Seifenschaum sind gewöhnliche Materialien unseres Alltags. Es scheint nichts Besonderes an diesen zarten und luftigen Substanzen zu sein. Und doch haben seit den 1960er Jahren zahlreiche Künstler/innen Gebrauch von den fluiden Schaum-Stoffen gemacht. In vorliegendem Aufsatz diskutiere ich, weshalb und inwiefern Seifenschaum ein produktives künstlerisches Material ist. Meine These lautet, dass Schäume aufgrund ihrer prozesshaften Natur, ihrer spezifischen Eigenschaften und Verhaltensweisen, traditionellen Ideen der Form und der künstlerischen Produktion widersprechen. Darüber hinaus ermöglichen ihre fließende und ephemere Stofflichkeit sowie ihr performatives Agieren einen kritischen Blick auf Gendernormen und -werte, die in Konzepte von Form und Materie eingeschrieben sind. Seifenschaum ist ein ambivalentes Material, das dabei behilflich sein kann, feststehende Differenzen aufzuweichen und zu verflüssigen. In der Analyse von zwei Arbeiten der deutschen Künstlerin Christine Biehler soll diesem kritischen Potenzial nachgegangen werden. Liquid foams, and more particularly, soap froth are common in our daily and domestic life. There appears to be nothing special about this soft and fluffy commodity. However, since the 1960s, an increasing number of artists have made use of this interesting fluid stuff. In the present paper, I discuss why and in what way soap foam is a fertile and productive artistic material. I shall argue that due to their peculiar properties and processual behaviour, suds contradict traditional ideas of form and artistic production. Moreover, the fluent and ephemeral materiality and the performative agency of liquid foams enable a critical look at the gender norms and values inscribed into concepts of form and matter. With the aid of two works by the German artist Christine Biehler, I shall try and explain why soap froth is an ambivalent material that might help to soften and dissolve established static differences.

description: We report the experimental realization of perfect sound absorption by sub-wavelength monopole and dipole resonators that exhibit degenerate resonant frequencies. This is achieved through the destructive interference of two resonators' transmission responses, while the matching of their averaged impedances to that of air implies no backscattering, thereby leading to total absorption. Two examples, both using decorated membrane resonators (DMRs) as the basic units, are presented. The first is a flat panel comprising a DMR and a pair of coupled DMRs, while the second one is a ventilated short tube containing a DMR in conjunction with a sidewall DMR backed by a cavity. In both examples, near perfect absorption, up to 99.7%, has been observed with the airborne wavelength up to 1.2 m, which is at least an order of magnitude larger than the composite absorber. Excellent agreement between theory and experiment is obtained.

description: In Part I, the effects of irrigant delivered via a 31-gauge irrigation needle to E. faecalis infected teeth instrumented to different apical sizes with six different nickel titanium (NiTi) rotary instruments were examined in an in-vitro model using 165 single canaled extracted teeth. In Part II, the accuracy and deformation of NiTi rotary files before and after use were examined via SEM imaging and ImageJ software. Statistical analysis was done using r-ANOVA and Tukey's test for Part I, and proportional odds model and Mantel-Haenszel row mean score for Part II. Smaller preparation sizes showed higher likelihood of having a larger bacterial count compared to larger preparation sizes. Most files' nominal diameter and taper did not conform to their advertised size showing a lack of standardization between manufacturers. Pilot tip lengths vary greatly between different rotary files.

description: 3D modelling is a technology in massive demand now and can potentially become a key factor for enabling subsequent technological evolutions such as metaverses, digital twins, and virtual reality. Current 3D modellings include high-precision 3D human body modelling and rapid modelling through single or multiple monocular photos. However, some problems persist in both modellings. The modelling based on high-precision equipment has low practicability, few applicable scenarios, and high cost. Modelling through monocular photos, on the other hand, has low accuracy and is sensitive to noisy data. And both modellings generate static 3D models. Therefore, to realize the model's dynamic effect in various fields while retaining fast modelling, we propose a system that recovers a 3D model from a single photo to fuse skeleton animation extracted from videos, for a realization of the Digital Twin (DT). DT is defined as "digital replications of living as well as non-living entities that enable data to be seamlessly transmitted between the physical and virtual worlds". Rigging is setting up the skeleton-based animation to combine the 3D model and skeleton animation. Traditional rigging method is time-consuming and non-reusable, since rigging is often done manually or semi-automatically. In this thesis, we propose an automatic rigging method to achieve a loose coupling fusion of one-to-many or many-to-one 3D models and skeletal animations. Our rigging method is fast and efficient, and only needs a single photo as input.

description: The photoelectron spectrum in the ultra-relativistic limit of tunneling ionization is strongly affected by wave-particle resonance and finite spot-size effects, in contradistinction with the usual assumptions of strong field physics. Near term laser facilities will access a regime where ionized electrons are abruptly accelerated in the laser propagation direction, such that they stay in phase with the laser fields through a substantial portion of the confocal region. The final momentum of the electron depends significantly on where in the confocal region it originated. By manipulating the target and collection geometry, it is possible to obtain low emittance, low energy spread, gigavolt photoelectrons. Radiation reaction effects play a negligible role in near term scenarios, but become interesting in the multi-exawatt regime. A significant advance in numerical particle tracking is introduced.

description: Massa and Minah is a photographic series and work in progress of Zanele Muholi, a South-African activist and artist. It forms part of her visual activism, which fights homophobic violence against black lesbians in Post-Apartheid South-Africa. Focusing on the exhibition situation at the Documenta 13 and on a reaction caused by the screening of the documentary Difficult love at the Pink Apple Festival, In der Mangel der Widerblicke points out the questionability and the challenges of mediations of the work of Zanele Muholi in European contexts due to their socio-political objectives. Based on an irritation provoked by Massa and Minah the text approaches the political potential of the photographs in relation to the objectives motivating the work. The text mainly focuses on racialized and gendered implications. It critically reads the photographs, analyses the intersectional projections in the white gaze and eventually considers the framing of the text itself. Massa and Minah ist eine fotografische Serie und Work in Progress der südafrikanischen Künstlerin Zanele Muholi und Teil ihres visuellen Aktivismus gegen homophobe Gewalt, der schwarze Lesben im Post-Apartheid Südafrika ausgesetzt sind. Mit Blick auf die Ausstellungssituation der Documenta 13 und die Reaktion auf ein Screening der viel gezeigten Dokumentation Difficult love zeigt In der Mangel der Widerblicke eine Problematik auf, die Vermittlungsformen in weißen, eurozentrischen Räumen wegen der explizit gesellschaftspolitischen Ziele der Arbeiten Muholi’s herausfordert. Ausgehend von einer von Massa and Minah ausgelösten Irritation analysiert der Text durch eine kritische Lektüre der Bilder intersektionale Projektionen im weißen Blick. Dabei stellt er Massa and Minah als visuelle Kritikerin desselben heraus in Bezug auf die Ziele, die die Arbeit motivieren. Den Schwerpunkt legt der Text auf vergeschlechtlichte und rassifizierte Implikationen und nimmt schließlich seine Rahmung selbst in den Blick.

Public Health Nurse Intervention for Depression Screening during Sexually Transmitted Disease Risk Assessments
Creators: name: Grimes, Jessica
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: The United States Preventive Services Task Force (2016) recommends screening adolescents and adults for depression. Depression screening is important during sexually transmitted disease (STD) risk assessments due to the association between depression and STD risk behavior. STD Enhanced Role Registered Nurses (ERRNs) are ideally positioned to incorporate depression screening into STD risk assessments.
      Purposes:
      1.  Expand the STD ERRNs' education to include an understanding of the association of depression with STD risk factors, be able to identify those at high risk for depression, and give them an evidence-based tool to screen for depression, thus enhancing the STD ERRNs' comfort and self-efficacy to screen for depression to facilitate evidence-based practice change in the clinical setting
      2.  Provide the STD ERRNs with a temporary policy addendum and depression screening guidelines to support them as they perform depression screens in the STD clinic
      Methods: A Needs Assessment Survey was given to STD ERRNs to determine knowledge and practice gaps. A pilot educational course was provided to one local health department (LHD). A temporary policy addendum was created and granted to eliminate the policy barrier. The course, pretest, and posttest were sent to all remaining STD ERRNs. Two follow-up surveys were sent to determine depression screening goal attainment, barriers, and supportive factors.
      Results: The Needs Assessment Survey found a low percentage of STD ERRNs screened for depression due to time and policy barriers. Pilot LHD feedback included changes to the screening tool and development of an implementation timeline. The course showed an improvement in comfort levels with administering depression screens and reported improved knowledge of depression and risk for STDs. The follow-up surveys showed that the majority of STD ERRNs were able to meet or exceed their depression screening goals, although some STD ERRNs experienced a time barrier related to the referral process.
      Limitations: Limitations included the reliability/validity of the pretest and posttest test questions, self-report nature of the survey questions, and small sample size (Phase 1 n = 63; Phase 2 n = 35; Phase 3 1st follow-up n = 14, Phase 3 2nd follow-up n = 17).

description: We discuss recent progress in the study of in-medium heavy quarkonium using first-principles lattice QCD calculations and effective field theory. In particular our focus lies on real-time information carried by QCD spectral functions and we report on a novel strategy for their extraction from Euclidean-time simulations. Combining an effective description for heavy quarks with finite temperature lattice QCD we compute in-medium spectra providing insight in heavy quarkonium melting in a static thermal medium. On the other hand we use spectral information to extract the complex in-medium potential which provides the basis for a dynamical description of quarkonium real-time evolution via the Schrödinger equation.

description: This thesis examines the issue of administrative censorship of college newspapers from an interdisciplinary, socio-legal perspective.  Using quantitative survey research methods, this thesis first maps the current scope and characteristics of newspaper censorship and compliance therewith at public colleges in the United States.  It concludes that while a majority of college newspapers experience at least one instance of administrative censorship each year, few newspapers experience administrative censorship as a chronic, ongoing problem.  This thesis also indicates that no single personal, organizational, or institutional characteristic appears to have major and wide-spread effect on prevalence of censorship or compliance therewith.  After using survey research to provide a current landscape of college press censorship, this thesis concludes by using the survey data to explore how advocacy efforts within the law and policy fields might best react to censorship currently faced by the college press.

description: Serbia is at a turning point in terms of choosing its future energy strategy. The nation heavily depends on national coal reserves and hydropower resources. Based on known effects of climate change and ist devestating consequences, it is well known that this strategy cannot remain. Still, ever-present tension of globalization and national security remains in this case as well, pointing out that certain countries may indeed be threatened by the ever-growing complexity and inter connectedness of world ́s countries. With the outbreak of Covid19 and ongoing wars, it is reasonable for countries to develop energy strategies that aren ́t only sustainable and globally accepted, but that are also mostly built around their national capabilities in terms of resources and expertise. In line with arguments of sustainability, cost-efficiency, morality, but also strategic independency,renewable sources show as the ultimate solution. Due to encouraging country-specific conditions, but also positive global trends, PV technology in Serbia seem to be taking momentum now. This thesis examines the technological, technical, economic, social, and political settings in order to better understand the factors that affect the potential and viability of utility-scale PV. Additionally, it will examine the state of PV technology in Serbia at the moment and provide projections about the future. (edit)

description: In analogy to nanoscopic molecules that are composed of individual atoms, we consider an active "microswimmer molecule". It is built up from three individual magnetic colloidal microswimmers that are connected by harmonic springs and hydrodynamically interact with each other. In the ground state, they form a linear straight molecule. We analyze the relaxation dynamics for perturbations of this straight configuration. As a central result, with increasing self-propulsion, we observe an oscillatory instability in accord with a subcritical Hopf bifurcation scenario. It is accompanied by a corkscrew-like swimming trajectory of increasing radius. Our results can be tested experimentally, using for instance magnetic self-propelled Janus particles, supposably linked by DNA molecules.

Intimate Interactions. Intersektionale Dynamiken als künstlerische Strategie in den Performances von Steven Cohen und IngridMwangiRobertHutter
Creators: name: Klein, Melanie

description: Intersectional approaches in recent feminist theory seek to analyse specific problems of discrimination on the basis of relations between individuals and societal structures. In their performances Steven Cohen and IngridMwangiRobertHutter experiment artistically with possibilities of transgressive identification that are set into arranged interactions with varying audiences. Therefore, their work not only negotiates intersectionality in terms of oppressive structures but also and most notably describes relational and polyphonic dynamics that generate agency and identity within societal frameworks. The essay explores how the artists deal with categories like ethnicity, class, gender and sexuality. Moreover, it examines how norms are subverted or rather alternatively configured through specific situational contexts. Through making visible the interplay between individual modes of expression the artists offer and respective reactions in public space Cohen and MwangiHutter thematise exactly the characterization of the subject as incomplete and negotiable that permanently challenges an intersectional research perspective. Die intersektionalen Ansätze in der neueren feministischen Theorie nehmen vor allem die Analyse spezifischer Probleme von Diskriminierung in den Blick, die das Beziehungsgeflecht zwischen Individuum und gesellschaftlichen Strukturen befragen. In ihren Performances experimentieren Steven Cohen und IngridMwangiRobertHutter mit transgressiven Identifikationsmöglichkeiten, die sich in künstlerisch arrangierten Interaktionen mit unterschiedlichem Publikum abspielen. Ihre Arbeiten verhandeln Intersektionalität also nicht nur im Bezug auf diskriminierende Strukturen, sondern beschreiben auch und vornehmlich die relationalen und multiperspektivischen Dynamiken, die Handlungsoptionen und Identität in soziokulturellen Bezugssystemen generieren. Im vorliegenden Essay wird untersucht, wie die Künstler bzw. Künstlerinnen mit Kategorien von Ethnizität, Klasse, Gender und Sexualität umgehen und wie schließlich die ihnen inhärenten Normen unterlaufen bzw. mehr noch durch bestimmte situative Kontexte alternativ konfiguriert werden. Durch das Sichtbarmachen der Wechselwirkungen zwischen individuellen Ausdrucksformen, die die Künstler bzw. Künstlerinnen anbieten, und entsprechenden Reaktionen im öffentlichen Raum wird genau jene Unvollständigkeit jeder Subjektbeschreibung thematisiert, die in der intersektionalen Forschung den Stoff für Kritik an und die permanente Erweiterung der Forschungsperspektive liefert.

'Race, Gender und Whiteness.' Einige Überlegungen zur Intersektionalität
Creators: name: Dietze, Gabriele
Publisher: name: FKW // Zeitschrift für Geschlechterforschung und visuelle Kultur
Year: 2014

description: The article discusses intersections of race and gender using the example of the United States of America as a special case for the interrelatedness and differences of race- and gender discrimination as known as racism and sexism. Special emphasis will be placed on the history of the term intersectionality in black feminism and the category of Whiteness as unmarked universalism in the post-slavery US. The concept of Whiteness will then be developed in comparison to post-colonial European race-relations. Whiteness as travelling theory in Germany for instance is in need of some cultural translation. The term occidentalism is hereby offered to describe the local brand of cultural supremacy. Finally Queer Theory is implicated to promote a kind correcting mode to hold possible binarism of intersectionality in check and offer a more fluid and flexible approach of thinking of and fighting against discriminating differences and considering possible privileges. Der Artikel diskutiert die Intersektionalität von Race und Gender. Er bezieht sich dabei zunächst auf den Spezialfall USA und die dortige Beziehungsgeschichte von rassistischen und/oder sexistischen Diskriminierungen. Dabei wird insbesondre die Rolle herausgearbeitet, die afroamerikanischer Feminismus bei der Begriffsbestimmung Intersektionalität gespielt hat und gleichzeitig eine Kritik an Whiteness als unmarkiertem Universalismus in den USA nach dem Ende der Sklaverei entwickelt. Letzteres wird dann mit europäischen Vorstellungen von weiß/arischer/christlicher kultureller Überlegenheit in Beziehung gesetzt, wobei davon ausgegangen wird, dass Whiteness für europäische Verhältnisse einer Übersetzung bedarf. In diesem Zusammenhang wird die Kategorie Okzidentalismus als abendländischem Überlegenheitsgefühl gegenüber den orientalischem/islamischen Anderen eingeführt. Dabei wird auf Queer Theory als korrektive Methdologie Bezug genommen, um nicht nur den einen Binarismus (schwarz/weiß) durch einen anderen Binarismus (orientalisch/okzidentalistisch) zu ersetzen, sondern einen mehrdimensionalen flexiblen Zugang zu Mehrfachdiskriminierungen und Privilegien zu erarbeiten.

The Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST)
Creators: name: Anderson, Richard I.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: WST will be the crucial spectroscopic complement to Rubin's photometric LSST. WST is an innovative 10-m class wide-field telescope that allows simultaneous operation of a multi-object spectrograph (MOS) fed by ~20,000 low-resolution and ~2,000 high-resolution fibers across a very large field-of-view (3+ sq. degree) and an unprecedented (9 sq. arcmin) panoramic integral field spectrograph (IFS). Featuring both higher resolution and larger collecting area than 4MOST, a factor of several increase in fiber number, and an IFS 9 times the area of MUSE, WST will lead to breakthrough results across most areas of astrophysics, including the physics of the dark Universe, the first stars and galaxies, cosmic reionisation, the baryon cycle, the stellar populations of the Local Group, and the characterization of exoplanet host stars.

Crucially, a time-domain mindset is built into WST from the start, meaning that transient and time-variable phenomena are considered on par with cosmological, extragalactic, and Galactic science cases. In particular, WST will target synergies with multi-messenger astrophysics and be strongly influenced by time-domain surveys carried out in the meantime, notably ESA's Gaia mission and Rubin's LSST. 

Here, I will give an overview of WST as a facility and the current priorities identified by the time-domain working group. These include telescope-level ToOs to identify and characterize the electromagnetic counterparts of merging neutron stars, fiber-level ToOs for transient follow-up, AGN reverberation mapping, synoptic studies of stellar variability, and Solar system science, among others. The ability to issue alerts will render WST a veritable time-domain machine with crucial abilities in the Rubin era and beyond.

description: Aims. The aim of this work is the study of abundances of the heavy elements Ba, La, Ce, Nd, and Eu in 56 bulge giants (red giant branch and red clump) with metallicities ranging from -1.3 dex to 0.5 dex. Methods. We obtained high-resolution spectra of our giant stars using the FLAMES-UVES spectrograph on the Very Large Telescope. We inspected four bulge fields along the minor axis. Results. We measure the chemical evolution of heavy elements, as a function of metallicity, in the Galactic bulge. Conclusions. The [Ba, La, Ce, Nd/Fe] vs. [Fe/H] ratios decrease with increasing metallicity, in which aspect they differ from disc stars. In our metal-poor bulge stars, La and Ba are enhanced relative to their thick disc counterpart, while in our metal-rich bulge stars La and Ba are underabundant relative to their disc counterpart. Therefore, this contrast between bulge and discs trends indicates that bulge and (solar neighbourhood) thick disc stars could behave differently. An increase in [La, Nd/Eu] with increasing metallicity, for metal-rich stars with [Fe/H] > 0 dex, may indicate that the s-process from AGB stars starts to operate at a metallicity around solar. Finally, [Eu/Fe] follows the [α/Fe] behaviour, as expected, since these elements are produced by SNe type II.
