description: We introduce a solvable system of equations that describes non-extremal multicenter solutions to six-dimensional ungauged supergravity coupled to tensor multiplets. The system involves a set of functions on a three-dimensional base metric. We obtain a family of non-extremal axisymmetric solutions that generalize the known multicenter extremal solutions, using a particular base metric that introduces a bolt. We analyze the conditions for regularity, and in doing so we show that this family does not include solutions that contain an extremal black hole and a smooth bolt. We determine the constraints that are necessary to obtain smooth horizonless solutions involving a bolt and an arbitrary number of Gibbons-Hawking centers.

description: Neuroleptic-induced Tardive Dyskinesia (NITD) is a chronic, iatrogenic movement disorder that develops because of treatment with antipsychotics. Although neuroleptics have been an effective therapeutic option for psychotic disorders, the emergence of NITD has raised significant concerns due to its negative impact on patient's quality of life. The pharmacological treatment of NITD has been the subject of extensive research with the goal of alleviating symptoms and improving motor function. Therapeutic approaches have focused on the use of pharmacological agents that affect dopaminergic neurotransmission, such as dopamine antagonists and serotonin agonists. The most studied drugs include tetrabenazine, clonazepam and amantadine. Despite advances in treatment, the management of NITD remains a challenge, as existing therapeutic approaches are not completely effective and may be associated with significant side effects. In addition, prevention and early detection of NITD are crucial aspects to minimize the impact. Therefore, further research is needed to develop safer and more effective therapeutic strategies that address the challenges associated with NITD and improve the quality of life of affected patients.

description: In forming processes, lubrication is needed to reduce friction and wear occurring at the contact areas between the work-piece and the tool. This is provided by separating these surfaces as well as transporting abrasive wear out of the sliding interface. With high interest in waste avoidance and efficient use of resources, today’s industry aims for substituting these lubricants. Thereby, deposition of coatings or local surface structuring offer a different way to reduce friction in forming processes. For instance, this can be reached by using different hard coatings as well as by utilizing manufacturing methods capable to control and reduce the contact area in the tribological system. In this project, the flange area of a deep drawing tool was macro-structured by turning-process (rotational symmetric geometry) and by milling-process (non rotational-symmetric part) to decrease the contact area of the work-piece up to 94% during the forming process. Also, the drawing edge radius of the tools was coated with different types of hydrogen-free tetrahedral amorphous carbon layers, e.g. with a sp³-ratios between 60% and 70%. Together with the subsequently introduced micro-features on the ta-C layer, employing the innovative method of Direct Laser Interference Patterning (DLIP), a further reduction of the contact areas was possible as well as to produce local rehybridization of the ta-C material. Also, high-throughput surface texturing of semi-finished sheet metals by DLIP process was performed, for reducing friction by minimizing also the contact area with the deep drawing tool. Forming of test strips showed the influence of the macro-structured flange area by reducing the friction force down to 75%. In addition, different modelling tools were developed for calculating both the process window and to determine the generation of wrinkles during deep drawing with macro-structured tools. The macro-structured deep drawing tools could also enlarge the process limits by increasing the stability against wrinkling of the sheet metal during the drawing process. The ta-C coating on the die radius without application of lubrication was capable to reduce the friction coefficient up to 20% compared to uncoated lubricated conditions. Performed tensile-bend tests on micro-structured ta-C coated cylinders also demonstrated the potential to reduce friction, as well as an excellent capability to reduce wear compared to the standard conditions.

description: Effective balance screening and treatment is vital to minimise the potential detrimental effects that may result from unidentified and untreated balance impairment in the vulnerable community-dwelling elderly population. Therefore, an appropriate screening measure for balance with established psychometric properties, is required for use in the community-dwelling elderly population. This research study aims to address the gap in the current evidence base, by identifying the psychometric properties of the 7-item BBS-3P and determining its suitability as a clinical measure in community-dwelling adults over the age of 65. Aims and objectives:  The aim of this study was to investigate the concurrent validity of the 3-level 7-item Berg Balance Scale (7-item BBS-3P) with other clinical measures of balance in a sample of elderly community-dwelling adults. The objectives of the study were to: - Identify the strength of a positive correlation between the 7-item BBS-3P and the Berg Balance Scale (BBS); - Identify if the 7-item BBS-3P positively correlates with the Mini Balance Evaluation Systems Test (Mini-BESTest); - Identify if the BBS positively correlates with the Mini-BESTest; - Determine if the 7-item BBS-3P can be used interchangeably with the BBS. Methods:  This cross sectional study examined the correlations between the 7-Item BBS 3P, BBS and Mini BESTest, in 30 elderly community-dwelling adults, aged 69 to 90 years. Outcome measures included the 7-Item BBS 3P, BBS and the Mini-BESTest. Results: Significant correlations were demonstrated between the 7-Item BBS 3P, BBS and Mini BESTest. The strongest correlation was found between the 7-item BBS-3P and the BBS, which was highly correlated (ρ=0.84, p Conclusion: These results confirm that the 7-Item BBS 3P correlates highly with the BBS and moderately with the Mini BESTest in a sample of community-dwelling elderly adults. This demonstrates that the 7-Item BBS 3P measures the same functional construct of balance as the BBS and that the 7-Item BBS 3P can be used as a screening tool for balance impairment in the elderly. However, the 7-Item BBS 3P and BBS cannot be used interchangeably as demonstrated by the correlation values. Further research is needed to establish normative, MDC and cut-off data for the 7-Item BBS 3P. Implications of findings: The 7-Item BBS 3P, BBS and Mini-BESTest, may be used as screening tools for balance ability in the community-dwelling elderly. The 7-Item BBS 3P cannot be used interchangeably with the BBS.

description: The rock-paper-scissors game is a paradigmatic model for biodiversity, with applications ranging from microbial populations to human societies. Research has shown, however, that mobility jeopardizes biodiversity by promoting the formation of spiral waves, especially if there is no conservation law in place for the total number of competing players. Firstly, we show that even if such a conservation law applies, mobility still jeopardizes biodiversity in the spatial rock-paper-scissors game if only a small fraction of links of the square lattice is randomly rewired. Secondly, we show that zealots are very effective in taming the amplitude of oscillations that emerge due to mobility and/or interaction randomness, and this regardless of whether the later is quenched or annealed. While even a tiny fraction of zealots brings significant benefits, at 5\% occupancy zealots practically destroy all oscillations regardless of the intensity of mobility, and regardless of the type and strength of randomness in the interaction structure. Interestingly, by annealed randomness the impact of zealots is qualitatively the same as by mobility, which highlights that fast diffusion does not necessarily destroy the coexistence of species, and that zealotry thus helps to recover the stable mean-field solution. Our results strengthen the important role of zealots in models of cyclic dominance, and they reveal fascinating evolutionary outcomes in structured populations that are a unique consequence of such uncompromising behavior.

description: A hollow cathode source with a specially designed cusp magnetic field B whose z component is a function of radius and the azimuth angle, provides clustering environment to the sputtered carbon atoms and ions. The distinctive features of the source are its sooting properties that depend upon the two well-defined regions within the discharge. The cusp field drives both of these regions but in different modes. One region ionizes the source gas, introduces the sputtered carbon from the graphite hollow cathode while the other is the collision dominated gyration motion of the positive carbon ions along the z component of the magnetic field contours. Tunability of plasma discharge characteristics provides the tool to investigate clustering in the sooting plasma

description: This paper employs Critical Discourse Analysis to examine the representation of autism within a small sample of mainstream newspaper articles. The paper concludes that media, as a communicative tool, has enormous cultural power whereby the portrayal of Autism as a disability is predicated on notions of normality and underpinned by ableist ideology. Such promotion of normalcy and disability in general can serve to generate and sustain disabling barriers and oppression. This hegemonic practice therefore produces a replicative process that is detrimental to the production of social justice and equality within contemporary society and culture.

description: This report summarizes the validation of the GOME total ozone derived from applying the weighting function DOAS (WF-DOAS) algorithm Version 1.0. This algorithm was developed as part of the GOTOCORD ESA project (see accompanying ATBD Report). The WF-DOAS results have been compared with selected ground-based measurements from the WOUDC (World Ozone and UV Radiation Data Centre) which collects total zone measurements from a global network of stations. Very few of these stations carry out simultaneous measurements by Brewer and Dobson spectrometers over an extended period (three years or more). Simultaneous Brewer and Dobson measurements from Hradec Kralove, Czech Republic (50.2◦N, 15.8◦E) and Hohenpeissenberg, Germany (47.8◦N, 11.0◦E) covering the period 1996-1999 have been compared with our GOME results and particular attention is paid to the differences between the two ground spectrometer types and GOME.

description: Although InP and GaAs have very similar band-structure their magnetic properties appear to drastically differ. Critical temperatures in (In,Mn)P are much smaller than that of (Ga,Mn)As and scale linearly with Mn concentration. This is in contrast to the square root behaviour found in (Ga,Mn)As. Moreover the magnetization curve exhibits an unconventional shape in (In,Mn)P contrasting with the conventional one of well annealed (Ga,Mn)As. By combining several theoretical approaches, the nature of ferromagnetism in Mn doped InP is investigated. It appears that the magnetic properties are essentially controlled by the position of the Mn acceptor level. Our calculations are in excellent agreement with recent measurements for both critical temperatures and magnetizations. The results are only consistent with a Fermi level lying in an impurity band, ruling out the possibility to understand the physical properties of Mn doped InP within the valence band scenario. The quantitative success found here reveals a predictive tool of choice that should open interesting pathways to address magnetic properties in other compounds

description: This document serves two purposes, first, it contains a reply to the comments made by the Panel Review (see PANEL–REVIEW) and secondly it summarizes the results from the Delta Validation that was carried out after the review. The comments made by the review were fair and well balanced and the reviewers are thanked for their thoughtful suggestions. It is also agreed that all three consortia using different algorithm concepts have significantly improved total ozone retrieval as compared to the current GOME data processor version 3.0. On first sight it appears that the overall performance of all algorithms (TOGOMI, GODFIT, and WFDOAS) have produced consistent and similar results such that it was indeed hard for the review board to decide which of the algorithm is the most appropriate to succeed Version 3. Since GODFIT uses online radiative transfer calculations its processing speed is about a factor of five slower than compared to TOGOMI and WFDOAS. It was therefore decided to inter-compare TOGOMI and WFDOAS with GDOAS, a standard DOAS retrieval, that has been used by BIRA to assess the GDP V3 data quality. GDOAS closely resembles the GOME Data Processor as described in Section 6.1 in GODFIT–VALREPORT. Major differences to GDP V3 are the inclusion of the ozone filling-in like in WFDOAS, TOGOMI, and GODFIT and the use of an updated surface albedo climatology using the minimum Lambertian equivalent reflectivity database from Koelemijer et al. (2002).

description: Numerical simulations of structure formation have recorded a remarkable progress in the recent years, in particular due to the inclusion of baryonic physics evolving with the dark matter component. We generate Monte Carlo realizations of the dark matter sub-halo population based on the results of the recent hydrodynamical simulation suite of Milky Way-sized galaxies. We then simulate the gamma-ray sky for both the setup of the 3FGL and 2FHL Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) catalogs, including the contribution from the annihilation of dark matter in the sub-halos. We find that the flux sensitivity threshold strongly depends on the particle dark matter mass, and more mildly also on its annihilation channel and the observation latitude. The results differ for the 3FGL and 2FHL catalogs, given their different energy thresholds. We also predict that the number of dark matter sub-halos among the unassociated sources is very small. A null number of detectable sub-halos in the Fermi-LAT 3FGL catalog would imply upper limits on the dark matter annihilation cross section into $b\bar{b}$ of $2 \cdot 10^{-26}$ ($5 \cdot 10^{-25}$) cm$^3$/s with $M_{\rm DM}$= 50 (1000) GeV. We find less than one extended sub-halo in the Fermi-LAT 3FGL catalog. As a matter of fact, the differences in the spatial and mass distribution of sub-halos between hydrodynamic and dark matter-only runs do not have significant impact on the gamma-ray dark matter phenomenology.

description: Despite its prevalence and potential impact, visiting friends and relatives (VFR) travel is remarkably understudied. Aging visiting parents of Persian immigrants are especially marginalized in scholarship and practice. This lack of attention is noteworthy, given the increase in immigrants to Canada and the rapidly aging population. This study aimed to understand the lived experience of 'visiting' immigrant relatives and the role of leisure (including leisure boredom and leisure constraints) during their visit. Specifically, this study explored whether leisure could help aging Persian parents visiting children in Canada with the cultural, familial, and economic challenges associated with their visit, including potential culture shock. Guided by a social constructivist paradigm and phenomenological approach, semi-structured, open-ended interviews were conducted with a purposive, non-probability sample of 14 visiting parents of Persian immigrants from Tri-Cities, BC, Canada. Interviews were analyzed using Braun and Clarke's Reflexive Thematic Analysis (RTA). Overall, Persian parents' lived experiences were characterized by three major themes:(a) visiting parents' experiences encountering Canadian culture, (b) visiting parents' leisure constraints, and (c) visiting parents' leisure activities in Canada. Eight sub-themes were developed to elaborate upon these overarching themes. The first sub-themes distinguish between parents who experienced culture shock and those for whom no culture shock was experienced. Language barriers were considered a common source of shock in this scenario, despite some unexpected findings (e.g., being able to connect with others despite the language barrier). The second set of sub-themes identified three recurring leisure constraints: (a) the exchange rate, (b) the host's busy lifestyle, and (c) leisure boredom. These constraints impacted and shaped the nature of participants' desired leisure activities. The third set of subthemes captured adults' leisure experience while visiting relatives, including (a) desired leisure activities, (b) leisure opportunities, and (c) autonomy, competence, and relatedness experienced within leisure activities. These themes, supported by data, are discussed, and the existing literature is extended. In addition, practical implications for hosts/host communities are also discussed.

description: Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs) are a subclass of pulsars first identified in 2006 that are detected only in searches for single pulses and not through their time averaged emission. Here, we present the results of observations of 19 RRATs using the first station of the Long Wavelength Array (LWA1) at frequencies between 30 MHz and 88 MHz. The RRATs observed here were first detected in higher frequency pulsar surveys. Of the 19 RRATs observed, 2 sources were detected and their dispersion measures, periods, pulse profiles, and flux densities are reported and compared to previous higher frequency measurements. We find a low detection rate (11%), which could be a combination of the lower sensitivity of LWA1 compared to the higher frequency telescopes, and the result of scattering by the interstellar medium or a spectral turnover.

description: Radical innovations by definition have a great influence on the future of the existing economic systems. It means that not only radical innovators, but also other stakeholders can experience their impact. The factors, influencing the direction and strength of this impact are far from being understood. Early appropriation of radical innovator’s knowledge may be especially important for small and medium-sized firms (SMEs), serving as the source of competitive advantage. Here different proximity dimensions (geographical, cognitive, institutional, organizational and social), measuring respective distances to a radical innovator, may play a crucial role. Thus, this paper opts at revealing the importance of proximity measures for the case of German biotechnology SMEs. A longitudinal dataset covering the period from 1996 to 2016 for the innovative performance of SMEs, that are citing radical innovators, is used as the base of the analysis. Results only partially confirm the findings of previous research by indicating the negative effect of higher distance and organizational proximity. However, the effect of both cognitive and social dimension could not be confirmed. Reasons for that potentially lie both in unique character of radical innovation and peculiarities of the biotechnology field in Germany.

description: Constraining the temperature and density structure of dense molecular cloud cores is fundamental for understanding the initial conditions of star formation. We use Herschel observations of the thermal FIR dust emission from nearby isolated molecular cloud cores and combine them with ground-based submillimeter continuum data to derive observational constraints on their temperature and density structure. The aim of this study is to verify the validity of a ray-tracing inversion technique developed to derive the dust temperature and density structure of isolated starless cores directly from the dust emission maps and to test if the resulting temperature and density profiles are consistent with physical models. Using this ray-tracing inversion technique, we derive the dust temperature and density structure of six isolated starless cloud cores. We employ self-consistent radiative transfer modeling to the derived density profiles, treating the ISRF as the only heating source. The best-fit values of local strength of the ISRF and the extinction by the outer envelope are derived by comparing the self-consistently calculated temperature profiles with those derived by the ray-tracing method. We find that all starless cores are significantly colder inside than outside, with the core temperatures showing a strong negative correlation with peak column density. This suggests that their thermal structure is dominated by external heating from the ISRF and shielding by dusty envelopes. The temperature profiles derived with the ray-tracing inversion method can be well-reproduced with self-consistent radiative transfer models.

description: Section 1: Concepts There are various articles in this section explaining the concepts, framework, process and application of Brand Alliances. The first article "Brand Alliances: An Introduction" by PS Gopalakrishnan, dwells on the various definitions provided by different authors that are available in the literature on brand alliances and co-branding, the types of brand alliances, the need for an alliance, the advantages and disadvantages of such alliances etc. Companies face difficulty in retaining their market share in the very competitive environment. So they try to add value to attract the customer by brand extensions, re-branding and new product launches. To get the required differentiation and/or relevance to their products, companies enter into brand alliances with lesser known brands. If proper synergy is achieved in their individual associations, the co-branded product can derive the strength of both the brands to meet the challenges in the competitive marketplace. A brand alliance provides an instant relevance, differentiation, reputation and credibility to a lesser known brand/product. A brand alliance can, in some cases, generate a brand new brand/product into the market.

description: The emerging field of Nominal Computation Theory is concerned with the theory of Nominal Sets and its applications to Computer Science. We investigate here the impact of nominal sets on the definition of Cellular Automata and on their computational capabilities, with a special focus on the emergent behavioural properties of this new model and their significance in the context of computation-oriented interpretations of physical phenomena. A preliminary investigation of the relations between Nominal Cellular Automata and Wolfram's Elementary Cellular Automata is also carried out.

description: Based on AVIC ARI\'s FL-60 wind tunnel, the measurement systems were conducted to get the sonic boom near-field pressure signatures efficiently and accurately. FL-60 is a trisonic, blowdown wind tunnel. The Mach number range is of 0.3 to 4.2, and the size of the test section is 1.2m x 1.2m. According to the characteristic of the wind tunnel, a pressure measurement rail equipment has been designed to instead of the traditional pressure probe to improve the measurement efficiency drastically. The shape, size and location of the pressure rail were optimized by the CFD simulation to get the best measured data. In order to reduce the flow field distortions, the \"reference run\" and \"spatial averaging\" techniques were utilized. The sonic boom near-field pressures for Seebass-ALR revolutionary model were obtained at Mach number of 1.5, 1.8 and 2.0. The test results showed that the experimental techniques for AVIC ARI\'s FL-60 wind tunnel are feasible and reliable.

description: Many critical EDA problems suffer from the curse of dimensionality, i.e. the very fast-scaling computational burden produced by large number of parameters and/or unknown variables. This phenomenon may be caused by multiple spatial or temporal factors (e.g. 3-D field solvers discretizations and multi-rate circuit simulation), nonlinearity of devices and circuits, large number of design or optimization parameters (e.g. full-chip routing/placement and circuit sizing), or extensive process variations (e.g. variability/reliability analysis and design for manufacturability). The computational challenges generated by such high dimensional problems are generally hard to handle efficiently with traditional EDA core algorithms that are based on matrix and vector computation. This paper presents "tensor computation" as an alternative general framework for the development of efficient EDA algorithms and tools. A tensor is a high-dimensional generalization of a matrix and a vector, and is a natural choice for both storing and solving efficiently high-dimensional EDA problems. This paper gives a basic tutorial on tensors, demonstrates some recent examples of EDA applications (e.g., nonlinear circuit modeling and high-dimensional uncertainty quantification), and suggests further open EDA problems where the use of tensor computation could be of advantage.

description: We examine mechanical feedback mechanisms during the protostellar phase through jets and outflows. To do so, we make use of velocity-resolved [CII] observations at 158 μm taken with the SOFIA observatory. We identify [CII] emitting cavities at velocities ranging from 1-2 km s-1 to 15 km s-1 relative to the Veil shell (vLSR = 13 km s-1). The momentum and dynamical timescales of these cavities imply that the cavities in Orion were formed by fossil and active outflows from stars with luminosities ranging from 1000 to 10000 L⊙. The momentum deposited during protostellar feedback is ~1/6 of the momentum of the Veil shell deposited through winds from θ1 Ori C. By creating cavities, the fossil outflows may already have broken the Veil shell, and outflows from less massive stars may have made the Veil shell porous.

description: We study how outflows of gas launched from a central galaxy undergoing repeated starbursts propagate through the circumgalactic medium (CGM), using the simulation code RAMSES. We assume that the outflow from the disk can be modelled as a rapidly moving bubble of hot gas at $\mathrm{\sim1\;kpc}$ above disk, then ask what happens as it moves out further into the halo around the galaxy on $\mathrm{\sim 100\;kpc}$ scales. To do this we run 60 two-dimensional simulations scanning over parameters of the outflow. Each of these is repeated with and without radiative cooling, assuming a primordial gas composition to give a lower bound on the importance of cooling. In a large fraction of radiative-cooling cases we are able to form rapidly outflowing cool gas from in situ cooling of the flow. We show that the amount of cool gas formed depends strongly on the 'burstiness' of energy injection; sharper, stronger bursts typically lead to a larger fraction of cool gas forming in the outflow. The abundance ratio of ions in the CGM may therefore change in response to the detailed historical pattern of star formation. For instance, outflows generated by star formation with short, intense bursts contain up to 60 per cent of their gas mass at temperatures $<5 \times 10^4\,\mathrm{K}$; for near-continuous star formation the figure is $\lesssim$ 5 per cent. Further study of cosmological simulations, and of idealised simulations with e.g., metal-cooling, magnetic fields and/or thermal conduction, will help to understand the precise signature of bursty outflows on observed ion abundances.

description: In the aftermath of the severe flooding in Central Europe in August 2002, a number of changes in flood policies were launched in Germany and other European countries, aiming at improved risk management. The question arises as to whether these changes have already had an impact on the residents' ability to cope with floods, and whether flood-affected private households are now better prepared than they were in 2002. Therefore, computer-aided telephone interviews with private households in Germany that suffered from property damage due to flooding in 2005, 2006, 2010 or 2011 were performed and analysed with respect to flood awareness, precaution, preparedness and recovery. The data were compared to a similar investigation conducted after the flood in 2002.

After the flood in 2002, the level of private precautions taken increased considerably. One contributing factor is the fact that, in general, a larger proportion of people knew that they were at risk of flooding. The best level of precaution was found before the flood events in 2006 and 2011. The main reason for this might be that residents had more experience with flooding than residents affected in 2005 or 2010. Yet, overall, flood experience and knowledge did not necessarily result in building retrofitting or flood-proofing measures, which are considered as mitigating damages most effectively. Hence, investments still need to be stimulated in order to reduce future damage more efficiently.

Early warning and emergency responses were substantially influenced by flood characteristics. In contrast to flood-affected people in 2006 or 2011, people affected by flooding in 2005 or 2010 had to deal with shorter lead times and therefore had less time to take emergency measures. Yet, the lower level of emergency measures taken also resulted from the people's lack of flood experience and insufficient knowledge of how to protect themselves. Overall, it was noticeable that these residents suffered from higher losses. Therefore, it is important to further improve early warning systems and communication channels, particularly in hilly areas with rapid-onset flooding.

description: Im Zuge der gravierenden gesellschaftlichen Umbrüche der letzten Dekaden wurden (und werden) die herkömmlichen Formen der gesellschaftlichen Handlungssteuerung, -regulierung und -koordination in vielfacher Hinsicht in Frage gestellt und es bilden sich - auf der Ebene des Institutionensystems und der Politik, aber auch in Wirtschaftsorganisationen oder in den Beziehungen zwischen Organisationen, gesellschaftlichen Gruppen und Akteuren – vielfältige „neue Governanceformen“ heraus. Die Forschungsperspektive des IAW richtet sich auf eben diese neuen Formen der gesellschaftlichen Steuerung, Regulierung und Koordination – auf deren aktuell zu beobachtende Veränderungen und auf die intendierten und nicht-intendierten Folgen dieser Prozesse in verschiedenen gesellschaftlichen Funktionsbereichen und für das Handeln relevanter Akteure. Auf der Grundlage der bekannten Megatrends und ihrer wissenschaftlichen Deutungen werden daher zunächst diejenigen Strukturwandelprobleme benannt, die grundlegende Anpassungen und Modernisierungen gesellschaftlicher Governanceformen hervorbringen. Neue Governanceformen und -mischungen werden dabei im Hinblick auf ihre konkreten Entwicklungsbedingungen, Ausprägungen und Auswirkungen in den gesellschaftlichen Funktionsbereichen Wirtschaft und Unternehmen, Arbeitssystem und Arbeitskultur sowie Stadt und Region erörtert. Schließlich werden die daraus resultierenden Basisthesen und generellen Fragestellungen in den Zusammenhang einer übergreifenden Forschungsperspektive gestellt.
