description: Hochschulen spielen aufgrund ihrer Infrastruktur und ihrem Angebot an Entrepreneurship Education eine zentrale Rolle im Start-up-Ökosystem. Eine wichtige Herausforderung in der Hochschulkommunikation besteht darin, einen Kommunikationskanal zu finden, der aus Sicht der Studierenden Spaß macht und zu mehr Durchdringung der Themen Entrepreneurship und Gründung führt. Nur so können die Studierenden passgenau über bestehende Angebote informiert, zu ihrer Nutzung motiviert und ein Output in Form von mehr unternehmerischem Denken und Handeln sowie Gründungen generiert werden. Gerade im Gründungskontext, wo spezifische Angebote einer kleinen, schon interessierten und gleichzeitig einer großen, potenziell interessierten Zielgruppe nähergebracht werden sollen, ist die Wahl der „richtigen“ Kommunikationsstrategie komplex. Beispielhaft für diese Herausforderung wird die Gründungsinitiative StartUpLab@TH Köln aus hochschulkommunikativer Sicht betrachtet und die Etablierung eines Instagram-Kanals geprüft.

description: Radio-galaxy (RG) lobes contain relativistic electrons embedded in a tangled magnetic field that produce, in addition to low-frequency synchrotron radio emission, inverse-Compton scattering (ICS) of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) photons. This produces a relativistic, non-thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE). We study the spectral and spatial properties of the non-thermal SZE in a sample of radio galaxies and make predictions for their detectability in both the negative and the positive part of the SZE, with space experiments like Planck, OLIMPO, and Herschel-SPIRE. These cover a wide range of frequencies, from radio to sub-mm. We model the SZE in a general formalism that is equivalent to the relativistic covariant one and describe the electron population contained in the lobes of the radio galaxies with parameters derived from their radio observations, namely, flux, spectral index, and spatial extension. We further constrain the electron spectrum and the magnetic field of the RG lobes using X-ray, gamma-ray, and microwave archival observations. We determine the main spectral features of the SZE in RG lobes, namely, the minimum, the crossover, and the maximum of the SZE. We show that these typical spectral features fall in the frequency ranges probed by the available space experiments. We provide the most reliable predictions for the amplitude and spectral shape of the SZE in a sample of selected RGs with extended lobes. In three of these objects, we also derive an estimate of the magnetic field in the lobe at the muG level by combining radio (synchrotron) observations and X-ray (ICS) observations. These data, together with the WMAP upper limits, set constraints on the minimum momentum of the electrons residing in the RG lobes and allow realistic predictions for the visibility of their SZE to be derived with Planck, OLIMPO, and Herschel-SPIRE.

description: Road traffic laws explicitly refer to a safe and cautious driving style as a means of ensuring safety. For automated vehicles to adhere to these laws, objective measurements of safe and cautious behavior in normal driving conditions are required. This paper describes the conception, implementation and initial testing of an objective scoring system that assigns safety indexes to observed driving style, and aggregates them to provide an overall safety score for a given driving session. The safety score was developed by matching safety indexes with maneuver-based parameter ranges processed from an existing highway traffic data set with a newly developed algorithm. The concept stands on the idea that safety, rather than suddenly changing from a safe to an unsafe condition at a certain parameter value, can be better modeled as a continuum of values that consider the safety margins available for interactions among multiple vehicles and that depend on present traffic conditions. A sensitivity test of the developed safety score was conducted by comparing the results of applying the algorithm to two drivers in a simulator who were instructed to drive normally and risky, respectively. The evaluation of normal driving statistics provided suitable ranges for safety parameters like vehicle distances, time headways, and time to collision based on real traffic data. The sensitivity test provided preliminary evidence that the scoring method can discriminate between safe and risky drivers based on their driving style. In contrast to previous approaches, collision situations are not needed for this assessment. The developed safety score shows potential for assessing the level of safety of automated vehicle (AV) behavior in traffic, including AV ability to avoid exposure to collision-prone situations. Occasional bad scores may occur even for good drivers or autonomously driving vehicles. However, if the safety index becomes low during a significant part of a driving session, due to frequent or harsh safety margin violations, the corresponding driving style should not be accepted for driving in real traffic.

description: This study investigates the consequences of the SarS-CoV-2 outbreak and of the resulting control measures on alcohol and illicit substance use in a high-risk population for substance-related disorders, utilizing an integrated medico-legal and toxicological approach. The research was structured as a retrospective case-control study of subjects found to be driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol and/or other psychoactive substances who were examined for driver’s license regranting. Alcohol and/or drug use was assessed by comparing cases examined in the period from May to August 2020 (immediately after the lockdown in Italy) to control subjects examined in the same period in 2019. DUI subjects were examined by an integrated approach, descriptive analyses were conducted, and significance was determined by chi-square and Mann-Whitney tests. Variables linked to the pandemic outbreak and resulting lockdown were investigated as predictive factors in determining unfitness to drive. Cases (281) were significantly different from controls (261) concerning the judgment of unfitness to drive (p Chronic excessive alcohol consumption and illicit substance use were more frequently observed in cases, which suggests a possible correlation between the pandemic/lockdown restrictions and an increase in psychoactive substance misuse. While these potentially correlative factors are discussed in this article, they require further study. If confirmed, the results should be considered in forensic and clinical settings.

description: The restoration of spontaneous symmetry breaking for a scalar field theory for an accelerated observer is discussed by the one-loop effective potential calculation and by considering the effective potential for composite operators. Above a critical acceleration, corresponding to the critical restoration temperature,T_c, for a Minkowski observer by Unruh relation, i.e. a_c/2π=T_c, the symmetry is restored. This result confirms other recent calculations in effective field theories that symmetry restoration can occur for an observer with an acceleration larger than some critical value. From the physical point of view, a constant acceleration is locally equivalent to a gravitational field and the critical acceleration to restore the spontaneous symmetry breaking corresponds to a huge gravitational effect which, therefore, prevents boson condensation.

description: Context. It has long been suggested that circumstellar disks surrounding young stars may be the signposts of planets, and still more since the recent discoveries of embedded substellar companions. The planet-disk interaction may create, according to models, large structures, gaps, rings or spirals, in the disk. In that sense, the Herbig star HD 142527 is particularly compelling as, its massive disk displays intriguing asymmetries that suggest the existence of a dynamical peturber of unknown nature. Aims. Our goal was to obtain deep thermal images of the close circumstellar environment of HD 142527 to re-image the reported close-in structures (cavity, spiral arms) of the disk and to search for stellar and substellar companions that could be connected to their presence. Results. The circumstellar environment of HD 142527 is revealed at an unprecedented spatial resolution down to the sub arcsecond level for the first time at 3.8 microns. Our images reveal important radial and azimuthal asymmetries which invalidate an elliptical shape for the disk as previously proposed. It rather suggests a bright inhomogeneous spiral arm plus various fainter spiral arms. We also confirm an inner cavity down to 30 AU and two important dips at position angles of 0 and 135 deg. The detection performance in angular differential imaging enables the exploration of the planetary mass regime for projected physical separations as close as 40 AU. The use of our detection map together with Monte Carlo simulations sets stringent constraints on the presence of planetary mass, brown dwarf or stellar companions as a function of the semi-major axis. They severely constrain the presence of massive giant planets with semi-major axis beyond 50AU, i.e. probably within the large disk's cavity that radially extends up to 145 AU or even further outside.

The impact of 2018 tariffs on international trade
Creators: name: Cai Chen
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Tariffs escalation in 2018 between the U.S. and China became a significant event in international trade. The tariffs and related retaliation caused massive trade losses in major countries and welfare losses in the world. However, as an emerging event happening recently, few studies focus on it and most studies pay attention on domestic effects on major countries. This study is aimed to explore the changes of international trade by applying the graph analytics method, which is widely used in network analysis and has comprehensive algorithms to detect the network structures. The data of commodities under class 85, one of the commodities influenced by tariffs, was extracted from the United Nations Comtrade database. The result indicates some changes between graphs and potential redirections, which could be influenced by tariffs.

description: We discuss low-energy and collider constraints on the effective couplings characterizing non-standard charged current interactions. A direct comparison of low-energy and LHC probes can be performed within an effective theory framework, when the new physics mediating these interactions originates in the multi-TeV scale. We find that for the effective couplings involving right-handed neutrinos the LHC bounds from pp -> e+MET+X are at the (sub)percent level, already stronger than those from beta decays. For operators involving left-handed neutrinos, the (axial-)vector and pseudo-scalar effective couplings are best probed at low energy, while scalar and tensor couplings are currently probed at the same level by beta decays and the LHC channels pp -> e+MET+X and, by using SU(2) gauge invariance, pp -> e^+e^- +X. Future beta decay experiments at the 0.1% level or better will compete in sensitivity with higher statistics and higher energy data from the LHC.

title: Premature menopause symptoms following cancer treatment: a systematic review, synthesis and qualitative investigation of lived experiences when choosing not to undergo cancer treatment
Creators: name: Clarke, Angela
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Qualitative, thematic synthesis, lived experience, premature menopause, cancer treatment.

description: Background and Aims: Premature menopause occurs spontaneously or following medical treatment such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, hormone therapy or after surgical removal of the ovaries. Symptoms of premature menopause can be distressing and impact quality of life. The review aimed to synthesise and appraise findings of women’s experiences of premature menopause symptoms following cancer treatment and to what extent they have felt prepared and supported. Method: A thematic synthesis was conducted across eleven articles reporting on nine studies. Results: Three overarching analytical themes were identified weaved through a lens of implicit gender bias; 1) women perceived a lack of information and healthcare-related support and felt unprepared for premature menopause symptoms; 2) premature menopause symptoms were perceived as either not being fully addressed, attributed to something else, or minimised; 3) premature menopause was found to be associated with perceptions of accelerated ageing, physical decline, loss of womanhood, sexuality desirability and sexual identity impacting on sexual and psychological health. Conclusions: Overall, findings report premature menopause symptoms following cancer treatment as a distressing and often physical and emotionally painful experience impacting quality of life, further compounded by disparities in women’s healthcare, inadequate information, support, understanding, and preparation that requires urgent review by health care providers.

description: The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in teacher educators dealing with multiple problems caused by the disruption to the professional preparation of pre-service teachers. This led to modified arrangements for teaching, learning and assessment on an emergency basis. For teacher educators, the challenges and disruptions caused by school and HEI closures may also be seen as opportunities to learn and reshape traditional roles and practices. In this study, we sought to understand how COVID-19 shaped and transformed the lived experience of teacher educators involved in school placement in Ireland. This research utilises Mezirow’s Transformative Learning framework starting with the disorienting dilemma of COVID-19 and maps the teacher educators’ responses to the resultant challenges and possibilities. Using a qualitative approach, the researchers analysed data from online surveys, focus groups and reflections, to consider continuity and change through the ‘Now What’ stage of Rolfe et al.’s framework. The insights gained from this research will add to the growing international literature on the changes to pre-service teacher education provision, by presenting the persistent challenges of dealing with COVID-19 and potential changes within the practicalities of school placement in Ireland.
Lepton flavor violation and seesaw symmetries

description: When the standard model is extended with right-handed neutrinos the symmetries of the resulting Lagrangian are enlarged with a new global U(1)R Abelian factor. In the context of minimal seesaw models we analyze the implications of a slightly broken U(1)R symmetry on charged lepton flavor violating decays. We find, depending on the R-charge assignments, models where charged lepton flavor violating rates can be within measurable ranges. In particular, we show that in the resulting models due to the structure of the light neutrino mass matrix muon flavor violating decays are entirely determined by neutrino data (up to a normalization factor) and can be sizable in a wide right-handed neutrino mass range.

description: We examine the changes in the properties of galactic bulges and discs with environment for a volume-limited sample of 12500 nearby galaxies from SDSS. We focus on galaxies with classical bulges. Classical bulges seem to have the same formation history as ellipticals of the same mass, and we test if environment determines whether or not a classical bulge possesses a disc. Using the projected fifth nearest neighbour density as a measure of local environment, we look for correlations with environment at fixed bulge stellar mass. In groups with fewer than 20 members, we find no evidence for changes in disc morphology with local density. At fixed bulge mass, disc mass and disc scale length are independent of local density. However, disc colour does increase (Delta(g - r) ~ 0.05 mag) as a function of local density in relatively poor groups. Therefore, the colour--density relation for classical bulge+disc galaxies in the field and in poor groups is due solely to changes in disc colour with density. In contrast, we find no correlations between disc colour and local density for classical bulge+disc galaxies in large, relaxed groups and clusters. However, there is a weak correlation between disc mass and group crossing time, suggesting morphological transformation takes places in rich groups. Our results add to the evidence that star formation is quenched in group environments, instead of clusters, and that star formation quenching and morphological transformation are separate processes. Overall, we show that environment has two effects on galactic discs: relatively low density environments can quench star formation in discs, while processes occurring in higher density environments contribute to the morphological transformation from disc-dominated systems to bulge-dominated systems.

description: One of the most visible avenues used by small cities to retain competitiveness can be seen in the attempts to revitalize their downtown areas to create places and spaces enjoyed and valued by residents and visitors. Formerly recognized as the heart or centre of small cities, many downtown areas have suffered due to urban sprawl and a loss of connectedness or familiarity among new residents. While efforts to address downtown revitalization are evident such as the creation of public spaces, events and support for small businesses, there remains a need to understand if, and how, residents in small cities value their downtown areas. Small cities are increasingly turning to cultural mapping as a way to identify the assets and values associated to the places and spaces within their boundaries. This case study highlights the Where is Here? project, an innovative initiative to develop cultural maps in three small cities on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, namely in the cities of Nanaimo, Port Alberni and Courtenay. The cultural mapping process included the active participation of local citizens, business owners, municipal development leaders, arts and culture associations, and Aboriginal groups. Three public engagement events or “walk abouts” were coordinated where 85 videos were captured of residents speaking to the places that they felt most connected to in their downtown core. The videos were shared widely in digital form on the project website and collectively, uncovered deep layers of meaning associated to a variety of downtown places. Leisure emerged as a central and embedded theme in the connect spots shared both in terms of the venues profiled and the experiences of residents. Leisure researchers may play a critical role in supporting small city place making initiatives by uncovering and mapping how residents engage with places and spaces within their leisure. Cultural mapping may provide a tool to leisure researchers to aid in these investigations.

description: We report on simulations and measurements of the optical absorption of silicon nanowires (NWs) versus their diameter. We first address the simulation of the optical absorption based on two different theoretical methods : the first one, based on the Green function formalism, is useful to calculate the scattering and absorption properties of a single or a finite set of NWs. The second one, based on the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method is well-adapted to deal with a periodic set of NWs. In both cases, an increase of the onset energy for the absorption is found with increasing diameter. Such effect is experimentally illustrated, when photoconductivity measurements are performed on single tapered Si nanowires connected between a set of several electrodes. An increase of the nanowire diameter reveals a spectral shift of the photocurrent intensity peak towards lower photon energies, that allows to tune the absorption onset from the ultraviolet radiations to the visible light spectrum.

The first method is based on the anti-correlation between BH mass and X-ray variability amplitude. Using a sample of AGN with BH masses from reverberation mapping, we show that this method shows small intrinsic scatter. The second method is based on the correlation between Gamma and both the Eddington ratio L_{bol}/L_{Edd} and the bolometric correction L_{bol}/L_{2-10keV}.

title: The Regulation of Online Hate Crime
Creators: name: Shaaban, Osama
Publisher: name: Oxford Brookes University
Year: 2020

description: The regulation of online hate crime in the UK has been successful. Recent attempts of the parliament to introduce the Online Harms White Paper have been plausible, by cohesively addressing elements causing online hate. The paper’s introduction to a statutory duty of care sets a comprehensive and rigorous standard for social media companies’ to follow, whilst ensuring overactive moderation doesn’t take place. However, the UK’s stance in relation to online hate vastly differs from international jurisdictions which is a deterrent to creating homogenous law governing multi-jurisdictional social media hate crime conflicts. This transpires in cases like Eva v Facebook Limited in relation to EU law requirements. In light of this case, Brexit is seen as a good step towards the UK having its own law for online hate as its law drastically conflicts with EU law. After careful consideration of regulation options for the UK, the co-regulatory approach is recommended as it maintains a degree of governmental oversight – although this will be likely eliminated with the current Ofcom deliberations. This should be applied to the UK’s legal architecture through a careful balance of reactive and proactive measures for moderating content.

description: Simulations of metal nanopatterns embedded in a thin photovoltaic absorber show significantly enhanced absorbance within the semiconductor, with a more than 300% increase for λ = 800 nm. Integrating with AM1.5 solar irradiation, this yields a 70% increase in simulated short circuit current density in a 60 nm amorphous silicon film. Embedding such metal patterns inside an absorber maximally utilizes enhanced electric fields that result from intense, spatially organized, near-field scattering in the vicinity of the pattern. Appropriately configured (i.e. with a thin insulating coating), this optical metamedium architecture may be useful for increasing photovoltaic efficiency in thin film solar cells, including offering prospects for realistic ultrathin hot electron cells.

Young Leninists in Chinese Universities and Factories: Left-wing Activist Network and the Jasic Movement
Creators: name: Kexin, Chen
Publisher: name: University of Chicago
Year: 2021

description: In 2018, a group of university students and recent graduates stirred up great public attention to labor struggles in China by openly supporting a workers’ union movement at Shenzhen Jasic Technology Co. Ltd. The outcome of the movement, however, was disastrous, as the state heavy-handedly cracked down left-wing student associations, labor rights groups, and social service organizations through 2019. Drawing upon extensive conversations with the movement participants and the author’s personal experiences, the study uncovers the underground left-wing activist network behind the Jasic Incident and answers the following questions: How did underground activists in China work to organize labor and advocate bottom-up labor activism? Why did Chinese students/graduates become labor activists? Why did the Jasic Struggle fail and what compromised the contemporary student-worker coalition as illustrated in the movement? It also offers a glimpse of the impasses of organized labor activism in contemporary China.

description: We investigate how strong lensing of dusty, star-forming galaxies by foreground galaxies can be used as a probe of dark matter halo substructure. We find that spatially resolved spectroscopy of lensed sources allows dramatic improvements to measurements of lens parameters. In particular we find that modeling of the full, three-dimensional (angular position and radial velocity) data can significantly facilitate substructure detection, increasing the sensitivity of observables to lower mass subhalos. We carry out simulations of lensed dusty sources observed by early ALMA (Cycle 1) and use a Fisher matrix analysis to study the parameter degeneracies and mass detection limits of this method. We find that, even with conservative assumptions, it is possible to detect galactic dark matter subhalos of ~ 10^8 M_{\odot} with high significance in most lensed DSFGs. Specifically, we find that in typical DSFG lenses, there is a ~ 55 % probability of detecting a substructure with M>10^8 M_{\odot} with more than 5 sigma detection significance in each lens, if the abundance of substructure is consistent with previous lensing results. The full ALMA array, with its significantly enhanced sensitivity and resolution, should improve these estimates considerably. Given the sample of ~100 lenses provided by surveys like the South Pole Telescope, our understanding of dark matter substructure in typical galaxy halos is poised to improve dramatically over the next few years.

The Relationships Between Dream Recall, Motivation to Remember Dreams, and Waking Memory Ability
Creators: name: Bloxham, Anthony
Publisher: name: International Journal of Dream Research
Year: 2018
Subjects: Dream recall; motivation to remember dreams; waking memory ability

description: Dream recall ability can vary between and within individuals, dependent on a number of influencing factors, including personality dimensions, number of nocturnal awakenings, and attitudes towards dreaming. Only a few studies, however, consider the possible connection of dream recall ability to general waking memory ability, or the influence of being motivated to actively remember dreams. The present survey-based study had two major aims: 1) To search for correlates and relationships between memory for dreams and memory for waking experience; 2) To address the effect of motivation on dream recall ability, split for both dream recall frequency (DRF) and dream recall detail (DRD). These questions were assessed in 57 participants who completed an online survey, consisting of questions from the Mannheim Dream Questionnaire (MADRE) and a memory exercise for an original short story. DRF and DRD were positively related, but showed different patterns of relation with the other measures. Of most interest, participants who reported high DRD also remembered the most details from the story, suggestive of an overlap between waking and dream recall ability. However, this relationship was non-linear, as the lowest memory score came from the intermediate DRD group, not the low DRD group, hence a non-significant correlation between DRD and score. DRF was unrelated to memory score, with no significant differences between high and low DRF groups, and no significant correlation between measures. This is likely due to the nature of the task being more compatible with memory for details. Correlations showed a consistent relationship between motivation and attitude measures, particularly the motivation to understand dreams. The most important points to be taken away from this study are: 1) there is apparent partial overlap between dream recall and waking memory for details; 2) being actively motivated to remember or understand dreams is an important variable to consider in future experiments; 3) and dream recall should be studied as its constituent parts of frequency and detail.

Visiting the land of dream muses: The relationship between lucid dreaming and creativity
Creators: name: Stumbrys, Tadas

Publisher: name: International Journal of Dream Research
Year: 2018
Subjects: lucid dreaming; dreams, creativity, problem solving, creative generation

description: Dreaming is a very creative state of mind. Lucid dreamers – who can become aware in their dreams that they are dreaming – have an advantage of directly tapping into the creative potentials of the dreaming mind. This study explored the relationship between lucid dreaming and creativity. Twenty lucid dreamers were asked to accomplish a creative generation task once in a lucid dream and once while awake. Their performance was compared to a control group of 20 non-lucid dreamers who did the task once (i.e. awake). While according to the present findings, the lucid dream state did not appear to be more advantageous for creativity than waking imagination, lucid dreamers performed better on a creative task than non-lucid dreamers, which supports the notion of existing relationship between the ability for lucid dreaming and creativity. Future studies should explore the directionality of this relationship and make further comparisons of creative performance in wakefulness and the lucid dream state.

description: The evolution of the system created in a high energy nuclear collision is very sensitive to the fluctuations in the initial geometry of the system. In this letter we show how one can utilize these large fluctuations to select events corresponding to a specific initial shape. Such an "event shape engineering" opens many new possibilities in quantitative test of the theory of high energy nuclear collisions and understanding the properties of high density hot QCD matter.
