description: We introduce and study a class of anyon models that are a natural generalization of Ising anyons and Majorana fermion zero modes. These models combine an Ising anyon sector with a sector associated with $SO(m)_2$ Chern-Simons theory. We show how they can arise in a simple scenario for electron fractionalization and give a complete account of their quasiparticles types, fusion rules, and braiding. We show that the image of the braid group is finite for a collection of $2n$ fundamental quasiparticles and is a proper subgroup of the metaplectic representation of $Sp(2n-2,\mathbb{F}_m)\ltimes H(2n-2,\mathbb{F}_m)$, where $Sp(2n-2,\mathbb{F}_m)$ is the symplectic group over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_m$ and $H(2n-2,\mathbb{F}_m)$ is the extra special group (also called the $(2n-1)$-dimensional Heisenberg group) over $\mathbb{F}_m$. Moreover, the braiding of fundamental quasiparticles can be efficiently simulated classically. However, computing the result of braiding a certain type of composite quasiparticle is $# P$-hard, although it is not universal for quantum computation because it has a finite braid group image. This a rare example of a topological phase that is not universal for quantum computation through braiding but nevertheless has $# P$-hard link invariants. We argue that our models are closely related to recent analyses finding non-Abelian anyonic properties for defects in quantum Hall systems, generalizing Majorana zero modes in quasi-1D systems.

description: Sometime in 2014, I was reading an article in The Big Issue that was discussing an announcement made on the 14th of December in 2013 by the government, that children who were living in foster care would be allowed and supported to remain with their foster carers until they were 21 years of age. This policy became known as ‘staying put’ and it infuriated me. What about young people growing up in children’s homes, how can they be so cruelly excluded from this, I thought to myself. I wanted to know more, and I wanted to see if anyone else was outraged by this plan and the hierarchy being created through it. With some online research I became aware of Every Child Leaving Care Matters (ECLCM), ‘a campaign group, without funding or political affiliations with any other group, formed to stop Government discrimination against children in residential care who want support to 21, the same as those in foster care’ (ECLCM). This group, made up of many care experienced people, shared my outrage and they were doing something about it, they were collecting signatures for a petition. I signed the petition, I followed the campaign on Twitter, and I also followed the founding members of this group, with Ian Dickson being one of them.

description: Cavity quantum electrodynamics of multipartite systems is studied in depth, which consist of an arbitrary number of emitters in interaction with an arbitrary number of cavity modes. The governing model is obtained by taking the full field-dipole and dipole-dipole interactions into account, and is solved in the Schrödinger picture without assumption of any further approximation. An extensive code is developed which is able to accurately solve the system and track its evolution with high precision in time, while maintaining sufficient degrees of arbitrariness in setting up the initial conditions and interacting partitions. Using this code, we have been able to numerically evaluate various parameters such as probabilities, expectation values (of field and atomic operators), as well as the concurrence as the most rigorously defined measure of entanglement of quantum systems. We present and discuss several examples including a seven-partition system consisting of six quantum dots interacting with one cavity mode. We observe for the first time that the behavior of quantum systems under ultrastrong coupling is significantly different than the weakly and strongly coupled systems, marked by onset of a chaos and abrupt phase changes. We also discuss how to implement spin into the theoretical picture and thus successfully simulate a recently reported spin-entanglement experiment.

description: We explore streaming instabilities of the electron-ion plasma with relativistic and ultra-relativistic cosmic rays in the background magnetic field in the multi-fluid approach. Cosmic rays can be both electrons and ions. The drift speed of cosmic rays is directed along the magnetic field. In equilibrium, the return current of the background plasma is taken into account. One-dimensional perturbations parallel to the magnetic field are considered. The dispersion relations are derived for transverse and longitudinal perturbations. It is shown that the back-reaction of magnetized cosmic rays generates new instabilities one of which has the growth rate that can approach the growth rate of the Bell instability. These new instabilities can be stronger than the cyclotron resonance instability. For unmagnetized cosmic rays, the growth rate is analogous to the Bell one. We compare two models of the plasma return current in equilibrium with three and four charged components. Some difference between these models is demonstrated. For longitudinal perturbations, an instability is found in the case of ultra-relativistic cosmic rays. The results obtained can be applied to investigation of astrophysical objects such as the shocks by supernova remnants, galaxy clusters, intracluster medium and so on, where interaction of cosmic rays with turbulence of the electron-ion plasma produced by them is of a great importance for the cosmic-ray evolution.

description: Shape anisotropy provides a simple mechanism to adjust the local bias field in patterned structures. It is well known that for ellipsoidal particles $<1$ $μ$m in size, a quasi-single domain state can be realized with uniform anisotropy field. For larger patterned ferromagnetic thin-film elements, domain formation is thought to limit the effectiveness of shape anisotropy. In our work we show that very soft lithographically patterned Ni$_{80}$Fe$_{20}$ films with control of induced magnetic anisotropy can exhibit shape anisotropy fields in agreement with single-domain models, for both hysteresis loop measurements at low field and ferromagnetic resonance measurements at high field. We show the superiority of the fluxmetric form over the magnetometric form of anisotropy estimate for thin films with control dimensions from 10 $μ$m to 150 $μ$m and in-plane aspect ratios above 10.

Search for new physics in events with photons, jets, and missing transverse energy in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV

description: A search for physics beyond the standard model involving events with one or more photons, jets, and missing transverse energy has been performed by the CMS experiment. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.93 inverse femtobarns of proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV, produced at the Large Hadron Collider. No excess of events with large missing transverse energy is observed beyond expectations from standard model processes, and upper limits on the signal production cross sections for new physics processes are set at the 95% confidence level. The results of this search are interpreted in the context of three models of new physics: a general model of gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking, Simplified Models, and a theory involving universal extra dimensions. In the absence of evidence for new physics, exclusion regions are derived in the parameter spaces of the respective models.

description: 2002cx-like supernovae are a sub-class of sub-luminous Type Ia supernovae. Their light curves and spectra are characterized by distinct features that indicate strong mixing of the explosion ejecta. Pure turbulent deflagrations have been shown to produce such mixed ejecta. Here, we present hydrodynamics, nucleosynthesis and radiative transfer calculations for a 3D full-star deflagration of a Chandrasekhar-mass white dwarf. Our model is able to reproduce the characteristic observational features of SN 2005hk (a proto-typical 2002cx-like supernova), not only in the optical, but also in the near-infrared. For that purpose we present, for the first time, five near-infrared spectra of SN 2005hk from -0.2 to 26.6 days with respect to B-band maximum. Since our model burns only small parts of the initial white dwarf, it fails to completely unbind the white dwarf and leaves behind a bound remnant of ~1.03 solar masses -- consisting mainly of unburned carbon and oxygen, but also enriched by some amount of intermediate-mass and iron-group elements from the explosion products that fall back on the remnant. We discuss possibilities for detecting this bound remnant and how it might influence the late-time observables of 2002cx-like SNe.

description: A variational framework is defined for vertical slice models with three dimensional velocity depending only on x and z. The models that result from this framework are Hamiltonian, and have a Kelvin-Noether circulation theorem that results in a conserved potential vorticity in the slice geometry. These results are demonstrated for the incompressible Euler--Boussinesq equations with a constant temperature gradient in the $y$-direction (the Eady--Boussinesq model), which is an idealised problem used to study the formation and subsequent evolution of weather fronts. We then introduce a new compressible extension of this model. Unlike the incompressible model, the compressible model does not produce solutions that are also solutions of the three-dimensional equations, but it does reduce to the Eady--Boussinesq model in the low Mach number limit. This means that this new model can be used in asymptotic limit error testing for compressible weather models running in a vertical slice configuration.

description: Indonesia, an expansive archipelago of 17,000 islands spanning 1.9 million km², faces a population of 267 million people spread across its diverse regions. As per Government Regulation No. 79 of 2014, Indonesia aims for a renewable energy mix of 23% by 2025 and 31% by 2050. Despite abundant renewable energy potential, such as biogas, there's a need for innovative approaches to meet these targets. The Symnery model, introduced in Manado City in 2018, involves a two-stage biogas production pilot plant utilizing slaughterhouse wastewater and agricultural waste. This model brings social, economic, and environmental benefits to rural communities, offering employment, training, and additional income. Energy literacy, crucial for understanding and managing energy complexities, is enhanced through the model. The government, adopting the two-stage symbiosis bioenergy model, simplified it for small islands around Manado city, distributing 18 units with local materials. Local training programs focus on knowledge transfer, monitoring, and demonstrating biogas advantages, aiming to improve living standards, promote cleaner environments, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Manado City by 6.29% in 2022-2023.

description: We performed noise measurements in a two-dimensional electron gas to investigate the nonequilibrium quantum Hall effect (QHE) state. While excess noise is perfectly suppressed around the zero-biased QHE state reflecting the dissipationless electron transport of the QHE state, considerable finite excess noise is observed in the breakdown regime of the QHE. The noise temperature deduced from the excess noise is found to be of the same order as the energy gap between the highest occupied Landau level and the lowest empty one. Moreover, unexpected finite excess noise is observed at a finite source-drain bias voltagesmaller than the onset voltage of the QHE breakdown, which indicates finite dissipation in the QHE state and may be related to the prebreakdown of the QHE.

description: The production of eta' mesons in photon- and hadron-induced reactions has been revisited in view of the recent additions of high-precision data to the world data base. Based on an effective Lagrangian approach, we have performed a combined analysis of the free and quasi-free gamma N -> eta' N, N N -> N N eta', and pi N -> eta' N reactions. Considering spin-1/2 and -3/2 resonances, we found that a set of above-threshold resonances {S_{11}, P_{11}, P_{13}}, with fitted mass values of about M_R=1925, 2130, and 2050 MeV, respectively, and the four-star sub-threshold P_{13}(1720) resonance reproduce best all existing data for the eta' production processes in the resonance-energy region considered in this work. All three above-threshold resonances found in the present analysis are essential and indispensable for the good quality of the present fits.

Multiscale characterisation of particle distribution in nanocomposites across two and three dimensions
Creators: name: Fisher John, Sandra
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2019

description: There are currently a wide range of carbon nanocomposite processing techniques which allow access to a variety of nanoparticle dispersions and distributions. However, in practice, dispersions and distributions within polymer matrices are often inhomogeneous resulting in local variations in microstructure which impact material performance. Understanding the processing-structure-properties relationship is critical in developing the next generation of carbon nanocomposites, as is the need for quantitative methods of characterising the arrangement of fillers in nanocomposite. In this thesis, new protocols for characterising the dispersion and distribution of particles in nanocomposites are presented; the methodologies address the multiscale and multidimensional nature of the structures. Complementary Raman spectroscopy and optical microscopy techniques, based on the chemically specific vibrational modes and broad optical absorbance, respectively, are used to quantitatively map the local concentrations of particles. The multiscale representation of the distribution is then used to derive an agglomeration index by wavelet transform texture analysis, allowing objective comparison between samples. Providing higher resolution and more rapid data acquisition, the optical microscopy method is extended to 3-dimensional analysis of the particle distribution via array tomography. Covering a region greater than 100 μm, the volumetric characterisation provides clarity to the orientation and size of anisotropic structures on the micron scale. Serial block face scanning electron microscopy extends the 3D analysis down to the few nanometre scale, allowing tracing of the true particle trajectories for analysis of the dispersion and particle-particle interactions. These methods, applied to multi-walled carbon nanotube, graphene nanoplatelet and carbon nanofibre composites, provide a comprehensive model of the particle arrangements across length scales; the implications of this data in process development and simulations are also discussed.

description: We compute the one-point functions of chiral primary operators in the non-supersymmetric defect conformal field theory that is dual to the IIB string theory on $AdS_5\times S^5$ background with a probe D7 brane with internal gauge field flux, both in perturbative Yang-Mills theory and in the string theory dual. The former is expected to be accurate at weak coupling whereas the latter should be accurate in the planar strong coupling limit of the gauge theory. We consider the distinct cases where the D7 brane has geometry $AdS_4\times S^4$ with an instanton bundle of the worldvolume gauge fields on $S^4$ and $AdS_4\times S^2\times S^2$ with Dirac monopole bundles on each $S^2$. The gauge theory computation and the string theory computation can be compared directly in the planar limit and then a subsequent limit where the worldvolume flux is large. We find that there is exact agreement between the two in the leading order.

description: Thermal suppression of quarkonium production in heavy-ion collisions, due to Debye screening of the quark-antiquark potential, has been proposed as a clear signature of Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) formation. At RHIC energies, the $Υ$ meson is a clean probe of the early system due to negligible levels of enhancement from \bbbar recombination and non-thermal suppression from co-mover absorption. We report on our measurement of the $Υ\to e^+ e^-$ cross section in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=200 GeV. We compute the Nuclear Modification Factor by comparing these results to new p+p measurements from 2009 (21 pb$^{-1}$ in 2009 compared to 7.9 pb$^{-1}$ in 2006). In order to have a complete assessment of both hot and cold nuclear matter effects on Upsilon production we also report on results from d+Au collisions.

Experimental characterization of the AA7075 aluminum alloy using hot shear tensile test
Creators: name: Trunal Bhujangrao
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The understanding of the material behavior under shear loading has great importance for a researcher in manufacturing processes like cutting, machining, milling, turning, friction stir welding, etc. where the material experiences large deformation at high temperature. For such material behavior analysis, hot shear tests provide a useful means to investigate the evolution of the microstructure at a wide range of temperature and to improve the material behavior model. Shear tests can be performed by direct shear loading (e.g. torsion of thin-walled tubular samples), or appropriate specimen design to convert a tensile or compressive load into shear (e.g. simple shear tests). The simple shear tests are straightforward. However, the design of a specimen is not so simple, and it is also difficult to obtain a very large deformation. In addition, the existing design of the specimen for the simple shear tests are concerned only with the elastic response of the material. It is becoming increasingly important to capture a plastic response of the material. Plastic deformation is significantly more complex and is known to depend more heavily on the strain rate, temperature, deformation, etc. Besides, there is not enough work is done on high-temperature shear testing. The objective of this study is to design a new tensile-shear specimen geometry to convert the tensile load into the dominant shear load in high-temperature tests in order to study the plastic behavior of the material. The specimen geometry design is based on the Finite Element Method (FEM). The material used in this article is aluminum alloy (AA7075), which is tested quasi statically under elevated temperature. Finally, the microstructural changes that take place during plastic deformation are studied using an optical microscope.

description: Entanglement distillation transforms weakly entangled noisy states into highly entangled states, a primitive to be used in quantum repeater schemes and other protocols designed for quantum communication and key distribution. In this work, we present a comprehensive framework for continuous-variable entanglement distillation schemes that convert noisy non-Gaussian states into Gaussian ones in many iterations of the protocol. Instances of these protocols include (a) the recursive-Gaussifier protocol, (b) the temporally-reordered recursive-Gaussifier protocol, and (c) the pumping-Gaussifier protocol. The flexibility of these protocols give rise to several beneficial trade-offs related to success probabilities or memory requirements, which that can be adjusted to reflect experimental demands. Despite these protocols involving measurements, we relate the convergence in this protocols to new instances of non-commutative central limit theorems, in a formalism that we lay out in great detail. Implications of the findings for quantum repeater schemes are discussed.

description: For experiments at the European X-Ray Free-Electron Laser (XFEL) the Adaptive Gain Integrating Pixel Detector (AGIPD) is under development. The particular requirements for the detector are a high dynamic range of 0, 1 - to more than 10E4 12.4 keV photons per pixel within an XFEL pulse duration of < 100 fs, and a radiation tolerance of doses up to 1 GGy for 3 years of operation. The detector will have 1024 x 1024 p+ pixels with a pixel size of 200 um x 200 um and will be manufactured on 500 um thick n-type silicon. The design value for the operating voltage is 500 V, however, for special applications an operation up to ~ 1000 V should be possible. Experimental data on the dose dependence of the surface density of oxide charges at the Si-SiO2 interface and the surface-current density have been implemented in the SYNOPSYS TCAD simulation program in order to optimize the design of the pixel and guard-ring layout. The methodology of the sensor design, the optimization of the most relevant parameters and the layout are demonstrated. Finally the simulated performance, in particular the breakdown voltage, dark current and inter-pixel capacitance as function of the X-ray dose will be presented.

description: Die Masterarbeit befasst sich mit der Baugeschichte der Pfarrkirche St. Franziskus Seraphicus (Franz v. Assisi) in Wien VIII. Breitenfeld, die im Zeitraum von 1893 bis 1898 nach den Plänen von Alexander v. Wielemans im Stil der späthistoristischen Neorenaissance errichtet wurde. Das an den Linienwall im Westen anschließende Gebiet war erst ab 1800 parzelliert worden. Erste Pläne für eine Pfarrkirche, die aber nicht realisiert wurde, lieferte bereits Josef Ziegler ab 1826. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird allen Plänen renommierter Architekten wie Theophil Hansen, Friedrich August Stache, Heinrich Ferstel und Viktor Luntz bis zur Fertigstellung der Kirche nachgegangen, wobei alle Projekte erstmals dokumentiert und beschrieben werden. Zum Vergleich wurden sechs Kirchen in Wien ausgewählt, die im Zeitraum von 1841 bis 1899 geplant und gebaut wurden. Damit ergab sich die Möglichkeit, den Bedingungen für die raschere Fertigstellung dieser Bauten im Vergleich zu Breitenfeld nachzugehen und in kunsthistorischer Hinsicht die sich ändernden Kriterien des Kirchenbaus in diesem Zeitraum aufzuzeigen. Zusätzlich zu der im Historismus entscheidenden Stilfrage bei der Bauplanung durch die Architekten ergaben diese Untersuchungen auch einen Einblick in die Einflussnahme von Kaiserhaus, Erzbischof und des Bürgermeisters beim Kirchenbau in Wien.
Super Quantum Discord with Weak Measurements

description: Weak measurements cause small change to quantum states, thereby opening up the possibility of new ways of manipulating and controlling quantum systems. We ask, can weak measurements reveal more quantum correlation in a composite quantum state? We prove that the weak measurement induced quantum discord, called as the "super quantum discord", is always larger than the quantum discord captured by the strong measurement. Moreover, we prove the monotonicity of the super quantum discord as a function of the measurement strength. We find that unlike the normal quantum discord, for pure entangled states, the super quantum discord can exceed the quantum entanglement. Our result shows that the notion of quantum correlation is not only observer dependent but also depends on how weakly one perturbs the composite system.

description: We briefly review the pilot ideas on the generation of EM-pulses much shorter than already available sub-femtosecond pulses, and outline inroads and venues into the physics of pulses mush shorter than an attosecond (10^-18 s), in particular the so called zeptosecond (10^-21 s) and yoctosecond (10^-24 s) pulses that may allow one to operate on QED and nuclear as well as quark-gluon time plasma scales. We also very briefly outline the entire time-scale available in the existing universe, down to the ultimately short the so called Planck time ~ 10^-43 s, which is the time-scale of Big Bang, and the most significant time-scale-posts on the road to it.

description: We introduce a model of potential driven DBI Galileon inflation in background N=1,D=4 SUGRA. Starting from D4-$\bar{D4}$ brane-antibrane in the bulk N=2,D=5 SUGRA including quadratic Gauss-Bonnet corrections, we derive an effective N=1,D=4 SUGRA by dimensional reduction, that results in a Coleman-Weinberg type Galileon potential. We employ this potential in modeling inflation and in subsequent study of primordial quantum fluctuations for scalar and tensor modes. Further, we estimate the major observable parameters in both de Sitter (DS) and beyond de Sitter (BDS) limits and confront them with recent observational data from WMAP7 by using the publicly available code CAMB.

title: Forschendes Lernen anhand einer Lernschachtel
Creators: name: Schäfer, Cornelia
Year: 2023

description: In der vorliegenden Masterarbeit geht es um die Anwendung von Forschendem Lernen anhand einer Lernschachtel. Die Lernschachtel wird von Schüler*innen der 8. Schulstufe der einer Informatikmittelschule in Niederösterreich ausprobiert. Beim Forschenden Lernen geht es darum, dass die Schüler*innen aktiv an ihren Forschungsfragen arbeiten und versuchen, diese auch selbstständig zu beantworten. Das Ziel der Lernschachtel ist es, den Schüler*innen zu ermöglichen, die Fragestellung, ob sich die Farbstoffe von farbigen Schokolinsen als Säure-Base-Indikatoren eignen, selbstständig zu lösen. Dazu gehört, dass sie ihre Versuche eigenständig planen, beobachten und interpretieren. Das passiert auf Level 1 und Level 2 der Stufen der Forschenden Lernens. Ihre Ergebnisse halten sie dabei in einer Protokollvorlage fest, die als Unterstützung („Scaffolding“) dient. Auch andere Mittel des Scaffoldings, wie gestufte Lernhilfen oder ein Concept Cartoon, wurden verwendet, um den Schüler*innen Anregungen zum Arbeiten mit der Lernschachtel zu geben. Die Lernschachtel ist eine Schachtel mit unterschiedlichen Geräten, Chemikalien und verschiedenen Anleitungen. Die Schüler*innen entscheiden selbst, welche Objekte sie aus dieser Schachtel verwenden. Das Projekt zum Forschenden Lernen erstrecken sich insgesamt über drei Einheiten zu je 50 Minuten. Nach der letzten Einheit erfolgt eine Abschlussbefragung. Sowohl die Protokolle als auch die Abschlussbefragung werden mittels qualitativer Inhaltsanalyse ausgewertet. Dabei wird neben einer sinnvollen Planung, genauer Beobachtung und dem Ziehen von Schlüssen auch ein Augenmerk auf die Wiedergabe der Fragestellung und die Definition eines Säure-Base-Indikators gelegt. Auch die Verwendung korrekter Begrifflichkeiten, wie der Unterscheidung von Säuren und sauren Lösungen wird analysiert. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass den Schüler*innen die Planung, Beobachtung, das Ziehen von Schlüssen und die Wiedergabe der Fragstellung mehrheitlich gut bis sehr gut gelingen. Besonders bei der Beschreibung des Säure-Base-Indikators findet eine Veränderung der Verwendung korrekter Begriffe statt: In den Protokollen wird immer von Säuren und Basen gesprochen, während in der Abschlussbefragung auch die korrekten Begrifflichkeiten saure und basische Lösung verwendet werden.

description: We compute the scale dependence of fNL for models of multi-field inflation, allowing for an arbitrary field space metric. We show that, in addition to multi-field effects and self interactions, the curved field space metric provides another source of scale dependence, which arises from the field-space Riemann curvature tensor and its derivatives. The scale dependence may be detectable within the near future if the amplitude of fNL is not too far from the current observational bounds.

title: Intraday dynamics of option-implied variance
Creators: name: Feurhuber, Julian
Year: 2023

description: Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, die intraday Muster der impliziten Volatilität zu untersuchen, die durch den VIX (Volatilitätsindex) gemessen wird. Der Fokus liegt auf dem Verhalten des VIX im einminütigen Intervall, mit dem Ziel, die Lücke in der Literatur zur intraday Dynamik des VIX zu schließen. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit werden die mit dem VIX verbundenen Probleme, der Einfluss der Liquidität und der Beitrag verschiedener Datens ̈atze von verschiedenen Börsen untersucht. Die bestehende Literatur zeigt, dass der Schwerpunkt in der Finanzforschung auf der Gesamtmarktvolatilität liegt, während der impliziten Intraday Volatilität und den sie bestimmenden Faktoren vergleichsweise wenig Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt wird. Um diese Forschungsherausforderung anzugehen, werden in dieser Arbeit Hochfrequenzdaten verwendet und ökonometrische Techniken angewandt, um die Komplexität der impliziten Intraday Volatilitätsstrukturen zu untersuchen. Im Abschnitt über die Methodik wird die VIX-Berechnungsmethode gemäß dem CBOE White Paper erläutert. Unsere empirische Analyse umfasst einen Vergleich zwischen unserer eigenen VIX-Berechnung und dem von der CBOE veröffentlichten VIX, eine Untersuchung von Unregelmäßigkeiten und Anomalien, eine Ermittlung der Korrelationen mit dem Basiswert, ein genauer Blick auf kurze Zeitintervalle und eine Untersuchung des VIX unter Verwendung verschiedener Optionsbörsen. Diese Arbeit zielt darauf ab, unser Verständnis des VIX und seines intraday Verhaltens zu vertiefen.
description: This thesis aims to examine the intraday patterns of implied volatility as measured by the VIX (Volatility Index). The focus is on the behavior of the VIX at a one-minute interval, with the goal of closing the gap in the literature on the intraday dynamics of the VIX. The research will include an investigation of the problems associated with the VIX, the influence of liquidity, and the contribution of different data records. Existing literature reveals a notable focus on overall market volatility in financial research, with comparatively less attention directed towards intraday implied volatility and its determining factors. To address this research challenge, this thesis will utilize high-frequency data and apply econometric techniques to explore the complexities of intraday implied volatility patterns. In the methodology section, we will outline the VIX calculation method as detailed in the CBOE white paper. Our empirical analysis will involve a comparison between our own VIX calculation and the CBOE published VIX, an investigation into irregularities and anomalies, an examination of correlations with the underlying asset, a concentration on short time intervals, and an exploration of distinctions among various option exchanges. This study seeks to enhance our comprehension of the VIX and its intraday behavior.

description: We solve the Dyson-Schwinger equations of the ghost and gluon propagators of Landau gauge Yang-Mills theory together with that of the ghost-gluon vertex. The latter plays a central role in many truncation schemes for functional equations. By including it dynamically we can determine its influence on the propagators. We also suggest a new model for the three-gluon vertex motivated by lattice data which plays a crucial role to obtain stable solutions when the ghost-gluon vertex is included. We find that both vertices have a sizable quantitative impact on the mid-momentum regime and contribute to the reduction of the gap between lattice and Dyson-Schwinger equation results. Furthermore, we establish that the three-gluon vertex dressing turns negative at low momenta as suggested by lattice results in three dimensions.

description: We discuss the construction of cosmological models within the framework of Macroscopic Gravity (MG), which is a theory that models the effects of averaging the geometry of space-time on large scales. We find new exact spatially homogeneous and isotropic FLRW solutions to the MG field equations, and investigate large-scale perturbations around them. We find that any inhomogeneous perturbations to the averaged geometry are severely restricted, but that possible anisotropies in the correlation tensor can have dramatic consequences for the measurement of distances. These calculations are a first step within the MG approach toward developing averaged cosmological models to a point where they can be used to interpret real cosmological data, and hence to provide a working alternative to the "concordance" LCDM model.

description: Der umstrittene Heidelberger Physiker und Nobelpreisträger Philipp Lenard agierte in fachlichen Kontroversen, vor allem im Streit um Albert Einsteins Relativitätstheorie, mit einer absoluten Selbsteinkapselung. Dies machte ihm auch in seiner politischen Haltung relative – das heißt: die Existenz unterschiedlicher Perspektiven anerkennende – Wahrnehmungen unmöglich.
