description: Describing a comprehensive neurofunctional model of sentence comprehension has always been a complex challenge. On one hand, disentangling the subprocesses that are necessary for computing the meaning of a sentence and their neural underpinnings is insidious. Each subprocess is closely interconnected with the others, and isolating only one as if it were separable can undermine the investigation of the overall process above. On the other hand, available data on the neural basis of sentence processing are not straightforward. This thesis explores relevant contributions and attempts to highlight open questions regarding the neural basis of two key processes in sentence comprehension, namely morphosyntactic processing and thematic role assignment. It presents and discusses original data resulting from an experiment that, to our knowledge, represents the first investigation of the neural basis of these two processes in the same sentential context. Results demonstrate that morphosyntactic and thematic processing rely on functionally distinct neural correlates in the left hemisphere. Morphosyntactic aspects are mostly processed in a left prefrontal network including the left inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) and the middle frontal gyrus (MFG), whereas thematic role assignment correlates with a left parietal node including the left intraparietal sulcus (IPS). Moreover, it is argued that results support the view that these regions play a language-related rather than domain-general role in human cognition. Finally, two statistical approaches to the analysis of the same TMS language data (ANOVA and Linear Mixed Models – LMMs) are compared. Their outcomes are discussed and an attempt is made at accounting for similarities and differences. Results suggest that the two models should not be considered on a sort of quality hierarchy according to which one has greater or lesser explanatory power than the other. Rather, they both represent legitimate and reliable approaches to account for data variability.

description: In this work, we examine the effect of shear and bulk viscosities on elliptic flow by taking a realistic parameterization of the shear and bulk viscous coefficients, $η$ and $ζ$, and their respective relaxation times, $τ_π$ and $τ_Π$. We argue that the behaviors close to ideal fluid observed at RHIC energies may be related to non-trivial temperature dependence of these transport coefficients.

description: Abstract Der vorliegende Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit den Arbeitsbedingungen von Unternehmern. Grundlage des Berichtes sind die Daten des European Survey on Working Conditions aus den Jahren 2000 und 2005. Vorangegangene Analysen zeigten, dass es eine nicht unbeträchtliche Spannbreite in den Arbeitsbedingungen von Unternehmern gibt. Eine wesentliche Bestimmungsgröße für die Aufgaben von Unternehmern und für die daraus resultierenden Belastungen ist die Unternehmensgröße. Je kleiner das Unternehmen, umso stärker gleichen sich die Arbeitsbedingungen von Unternehmern und Arbeitnehmern. Mit zunehmender Unternehmensgröße steigt der intrinsische Gehalt der Arbeit, es deutet sich allerdings auch an, dass in größeren Unternehmen die intrinsischen Anreize für Unternehmer zurückgehen.

description: The construction of the new DAPHNE machine, at the Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati, addresses the question if competitive synchrotron radiation applications can be figured out for this non dedicated storage ring and which valuable or new research fields can be considered at least for the next five-ten years. Starting for the design parameters, some general considerations concerning the synchrotron radiation source requirements are outlined. Finallythe extraction of synchrotron radiation for experiments in the infrared energy range (5-5000 μm) is discussed in more detail.
title: Minimizing Non-Response in The Delphi Process: How to Respond to Non-Response
Creators: name: Hsu, Chia-Chien

Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2007

description: When using the Delphi process, investigators need not only to achieve a desirable response rate in the initial round but they must also concern themselves with maintaining high response rates in the following iterations. Due to the potential scarcity of qualified participants and the relatively small number of subjects used in a Delphi study, the ability to achieve and maintain an ideal response rate can either ensure or jeopardize the validity of a Delphi study. The purpose of this paper is to discuss possible options to achieve and maintain a desirable response rate when engaged in a Delphi research project. These possible options focus on the importance of seeking help from well recognized experts or endorsed individuals, the value in establishing the first contact with each participant, the option of utilizing different forms and formats of questions, the use of incentives to encourage response and finally, strategies for dealing with non-respondents.

Shape optimization for low Neumann and Steklov eigenvalues

Subjects: subject: Spectral Theory (math.SP)

description: We give an overview of results on shape optimization for low eigenvalues of the Laplacian on bounded planar domains with Neumann and Steklov boundary conditions. These results share a common feature: they are proved using methods of complex analysis. In particular, we present modernized proofs of the classical inequalities due to Szego and Weinstock for the first nonzero Neumann and Steklov eigenvalues. We also extend the inequality for the second nonzero Neumann eigenvalue, obtained recently by Nadirashvili and the authors, to non-homogeneous membranes with log-subharmonic densities. In the homogeneous case, we show that this inequality is strict, which implies that the maximum of the second nonzero Neumann eigenvalue is not attained in the class of simply-connected membranes of a given mass. The same is true for the second nonzero Steklov eigenvalue, as follows from our results on the Hersch-Payne-Schiffer inequalities.

Publisher: name: INFN Open Access Repository
Year: 1995

description: We propose a modification of the equivalent photon approximation (EPA) for processes which involve the parton content of the photon, to take into account the suppression of the photonic parton fluxes due to the virtuality of the photon. We present simple, physically motivated ansatze to model this suppression and show that even though the parton content of the electron no longer factorizes into an electron flux function and photon structure function, it is still possible to express it as a single integral. We also show that for the TRISTAN experiments its effect can be numerically of the same size as that of the NLO corrections. Further, we discuss a possible measurement at HERA, which can provide an experimental handle on the effect we model through our ansatze.

description: Although they test somewhat different hypotheses, analysis of gain scores (or its repeated-measures analog) and analysis of covariance are both common methods that researchers use for pre-post data. The results of the two approaches yield non-comparable outcomes, but since the same generic data are used, it is possible to transform the test statistic of one into that of the other. We derive a formula that can be used to accomplish a conversion between the two and give an example. Such a result could be helpful to meta-analysts, where the outcomes in different research reports may be of either of the two types, yet need to be synthesized. Suggestions for additional research that can improve the usefulness of the formula are offered. Accessed 30,293 times on https://pareonline.net from March 20, 2009 to December 31, 2019.

description: An e^+e^- collider, christened DAFNE (Double Anular F factory for Nice Experiments), optimized for operation at a total energy of 1020 MeV, is under construction at the Frascati National Laboratories (LNF) of the National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN). The new machine will be placed into the extisting buildings which in the past housed the Linac-Adone complex, which definitively ceased operation April 26th 1993 and was at once decomissioned. The Linac-Adone complex has operated without stopping up to the 26th of April 1993 except for the ordinary maintenance periods. It was composed by a Linac, capable of accelerating 100mA of e- beam peak current to 400MeV and 1mA of e^+ peak current to 365 MeV, in operation since 1964, and by an e^+e^- storage ring capable of storing 2x1011 particles per beam at 1500 MeV, in opearation since 1967.

description: {Aims.} We present the main results of an imaging survey of possible young massive clusters (YMC) in M31 performed with the Wide Field and Planetary Camera2 (WFPC2) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). We present the images and color magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of all of our targets. {Methods.} The reddening, age and, metallicity of the clusters were estimated by comparing the observed CMDs and luminosity functions with theoretical models. Stellar masses were estimated by comparison with theoretical models in the log(Age) vs. absolute integrated magnitude plane. {Results.} Nineteen of the twenty surveyed candidates were confirmed to be real star clusters. Three of the clusters were found not to be good YMC candidates from newly available integrated spectroscopy and were in fact found to be old from their CMD. Of the remaining sixteen clusters, fourteen have ages between 25 Myr and 280 Myr, two have older ages than 500 Myr (lower limits). By including ten other YMC with HST photometry from the literature we have assembled a sample of 25 clusters younger than 1 Gyr, with mass ranging from 0.6 x 10^4 M_sun to 6 x 10^4 M_sun, with an average of ~ 3 x 10^4 M_sun. {Conclusions.} The clusters considered here are confirmed to have masses significantly higher than Galactic open clusters in the same age range. Our analysis indicates that YMCs are relatively common in all the largest star-forming galaxies of the Local Group.

description: Tactile texture refers to the tangible feel of a surface and visual texture refers to see the shape or contents of the image. In the image processing, the texture can be defined as a function of spatial variation of the brightness intensity of the pixels. Texture is the main term used to define objects or concepts of a given image. Texture analysis plays an important role in computer vision cases such as object recognition, surface defect detection, pattern recognition, medical image analysis, etc. Since now many approaches have been proposed to describe texture images accurately. Texture analysis methods usually are classified into four categories: statistical methods, structural, model-based and transform- based methods. This paper discusses the various methods used for texture or analysis in details. New researches shows the power of combinational methods for texture analysis, which can't be in specific category. This paper provides a review on well known combination methods in a specific section with details. This paper counts advantages and disadvantages of well-known texture image descriptors in the result part. Main focus in all of the survived methods is on discrimination performance, computational complexity and resistance to challenges such as noise, rotation, etc. A brief review is also made on the common classifiers used for texture image classification. Also, a survey on texture image benchmark datasets is included.

title: A Framework for Performance-Based Facade Design: Approach for Multi-Objective and Automated Simulation and Optimization
Creators: name: Minaei, Mahsa

Publisher: name: University of Mass Amherst
Year: 2019

description: Buildings have a considerable impact on the environment, and it is crucial to consider environmental and energy performance in building design. In this regard, decision-makers are required to establish an optimal solution, considering multi-objective problems that are usually competitive and nonlinear, such as energy consumption, financial costs, environmental performance, occupant comfort, etc. Sustainable building design requires considerations of a large number of design variables and multiple, often conflicting objectives, such as the initial construction cost, energy cost, energy consumption and occupant satisfaction. One approach to address these issues is the use of building performance simulations and optimization methods.

This paper presents a novel method for improving building facade performance, taking into consideration occupant comfort, energy consumption and energy costs. The paper discusses development of a framework, which is based on multi-objective optimization and uses the genetic algorithm in combination with building performance simulations. The framework utilizes EnergyPlus simulation engine and Python programming to implement optimization algorithm analysis and decision support. The framework enhances the process of performance-based facade design, couples simulation and optimization packages, and provides flexible and fast supplement in facade design process by rapid generation of design alternatives.
Reheating Temperature and Gauge Mediation Models of Supersymmetry Breaking

description: For supersymmetric theories with gravitino dark matter, the maximal reheating temperature consistent with big bang nucleosynthesis bounds arises when the physical gaugino masses are degenerate. We consider the cases of a stau or sneutrino next-to-lightest superpartner, which have relatively less constraint from big bang nucleosynthesis. The resulting parameter space is consistent with leptogenesis requirements, and can be reached in generalized gauge mediation models. Such models illustrate a class of theories that overcome the well-known tension between big bang nucleosynthesis and leptogenesis.

Three essays on disequilibrium dynamics and the evolution of macroeconomics in the '50s and '60s
Creators: name: GALEOTTI, ANDREA
Publisher: name: Universit� di Siena
Year: 2021

description: The work reappraises an extremely relevant debate in economic theory, as the current state of the dominant theory in its Neo-Walrasian reformulation; especially, its incapability to offer a proper discussion of disequilibrium dynamics. The candidate does so by critically examining some of the contributions that, since the middle of the last century, allowed the consolidation of this version of the theory, as the works of Clower (1965, 1969) and Patinkin ([1956] 1965). Furthermore, through an exam of one of the most influential marginalist authors of the XX century, such as J.R. Hicks, the work also contributes to clarifying the conditions that allowed the marginalist theory in its traditional version (long-period version) to study the working of real economies.

description: Die Ergebnisse über die berichtet wird, wurden im Rahmen einer Studie über die Wettbewerbssituation der Arbeitnehmer ermittelt, die im April 2009 durchgeführt wurde. In dem hier vorliegenden Kurzbericht wird sich mit der etwas spezielleren Frage befasst, wie die Arbeitnehmer die augenblickliche Krisenlage beurteilen. Insgesamt zeigt sich eine nicht unbeträchtliche Verunsicherung. Optimismus ist eher selten, viele Arbeitnehmer berichten über eine Verschlechterung des Betriebsklimas, fast jeder zweite der Befragten ist nicht sicher, ob er seinen Arbeitsplatz behalten kann, etwa jeder achte geht sogar fest davon aus, ihn zu verlieren. Die Kommunikationspolitik der Arbeitgeber wird vielfach als unbefriedigend wahrgenommen, und fast die Hälfte der Befragten hat den Eindruck, dass ihr Arbeitgeber bei Maßnahmen der Krisenbewältigung wenig Rücksicht auf die Interessen seiner Arbeitnehmer nimmt. Zu einem vollständigen Bild gehört allerdings auch die Feststellung, dass die Arbeitnehmer – was ihre persönliche berufliche Zukunft angeht - insgesamt durchaus zuversichtlich bleiben.

description: Measurements of coherent diffraction radiation from a slit of a variable width generated by short electron bunches were performed in millimeter and submillimeter range. Experimental data are compared with transition radiation case and theoretical predictions. More realistic description, than the conventional theory does, is necessary to correctly account for the data. No noticeable difference in the bunch length value was observed between the diffraction radiation mode in a wide range of the slit widths and transition radiation one in the bunch length evaluation.

description: There has been much talk of governance in the South Pacific in the past few years. Indeed, it seems that governance has become the political and economic message of the late 1990s, much as ‘sustainable development’ was that of the early 1990s. The messengers are the premier international organisations such as the World Bank, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development, the United Nations and the International Monetary Fund relayed in the South Pacific by prominent bilateral donors, such as Australia, New Zealand and Great Britain. Although the message of governance is relevant globally, it has been essentially directed at the developing world. It is, as such, currently having an impact on the Pacific islands. Like many new and widespread concepts before it, governance will be absorbed and ‘recycled’ by Pacific island governments and administrations. It may prove to be only an empty, ‘flavour of the month’ (Williams and Young 1994) expression used by Pacific officials as and when deemed necessary to satisfy aid donors. In this case governance will have an effect only in the context of Pacific island countries’ relations with larger powers and will not provoke fundamental or far-reaching changes on how Pacific societies actually govern themselves. On the other hand, should the idea come to take on meaning to the people it could be of benefit to the Pacific island countries. For the latter to happen, governance will need to be transformed into an adapted-to-the-Pacific concept, and not remain a ‘message from the cold’. Indeed, for governance to become truly relevant to the Pacific, people in the region must create their own definition and understanding of the concept. The objective of this paper is therefore to try to understand what governance means or can potentially come to mean, in one South Pacific country, Vanuatu.

description: An anomalous Hall effect and rectification of a Hall voltage are observed by applying a radio-frequency (rf) current through a single-layered ferromagnetic wire located on a coplanar waveguide. The components of the magnetization precession, both in and perpendicular to the plane, can be detected via the Hall voltage rectification of the rf current by incorporating an additional direct (dc) current. In this paper, we propose a phenomenological model, which describes the time-dependent anisotropic magnetoresistance and time-dependent planer Hall effect. The nonlinearity of the spin dynamics accompanied by spin-waves as functions of rf and dc currents is also studied, as well as those of the magnitude and orientation of the external magnetic field.

description: We consider pyramids made of one-dimensional pieces of fixed integer length a and which may have pairwise overlaps of integer length from 1 to a. We prove that the number of pyramids of size m, i.e. consisting of m pieces, equals (am-1,m-1) for each a >= 2. This generalises a well known result for a = 2. A bijective correspondence between so-called right (or left) pyramids and a-ary trees is pointed out, and it is shown that asymptotically the average width of pyramids is proportional to the square root of the size.

description: Zielsetzung der Studie Kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen (KMU) gelten als notorisch strategieabstinent. So ermittelte in den 80er Jahren beispielsweise die Stratos-Forschergruppe nur bei einer kleinen Minderheit von KMU (nämlich bei etwa 11%) die Existenz einer „strategischen Planung“(Bamberger u.a. 1990, 88). Wesentlich günstiger fallen dagegen die Ergebnisse einer neueren Umfrage des Instituts für Mittelstandsforschung Bonn aus. Danach verfügen immerhin 54% der befragten mittelständischen Industrieunternehmen über eine schriftlich fixierte Unternehmensstrategie(Kayser/Wallau 2003, 88. Eine frühere Studie des Instituts für Mittelstandsforschung Lüneburg kommt zu einer ähnlichen positiven Einschätzung. Die Mehrheit der befragten Industrieunternehmen erarbeitet durchaus Strategien, die „…als Grundlage des Alltagsgeschäfts“ dienen.

description: Der Grund dafür, eine neue Stelle in einem Unternehmen zu suchen und anzunehmen, ist selten darin zu finden, dass man sich über seinen zukünftigen Vorgesetzten Gedanken gemacht hat, häufig ist es allerdings dann der im Arbeitsalltag erlebte Vorgesetzte, der den Grund dafür liefert, das Unternehmen wieder zu verlassen. Unsere Studie befasst sich mit der Qualität der Vorgesetzten-Mitarbeiter-Beziehung. Eine gute Vorgesetzten-Mitarbeiter-Beziehung lebt davon, dass sich die Beteiligten gegenseitig unterstützen, dass sie fair miteinander umgehen und davon, dass sie sich um das zwischenmenschliche Klima bemühen. Eine schlechte Führungsbeziehung beeinträchtigt nachhaltig die Stimmung bei der Arbeit, erzeugt Stress und beschädigt vor allem auch die Beziehung des Arbeitnehmers zu seinem Arbeitgeber. Die Beurteilung der Führungsqualität bestimmt sich aber nicht nur am unmittelbaren Verhalten des Vorgesetzten gegenüber seinen Mitarbeitern, große Bedeutung für die Wertschätzung der Führungskraft durch die Mitarbeiter hat die Frage, ob der Vorgesetzte als fachlich kompetent erlebt wird. Dabei ist zu beachten, dass die Beurteilung des Vorgesetzten nicht in jeder Hinsicht objektiv ist, sie ist nicht selten Ergebnis einer „Projektion“, die dazu dient, einer konkreten Person (berechtigt oder nicht) die Verantwortung für eine unbefriedigende Arbeitssituation zuzuweisen.

description: There is an ongoing debate in the literature concerning the effects of averaging out inhomogeneities (``backreaction'') in cosmology. In particular, some simple models of structure formation studied in the literature seem to indicate that the backreaction can play a significant role at late times, and it has also been suggested that the standard perturbed FLRW framework is no longer a good approximation during structure formation, when the density contrast becomes nonlinear. In this work we use Zalaletdinov's covariant averaging scheme (macroscopic gravity or MG) to show that as long as the metric of the Universe can be described by the perturbed FLRW form, the corrections due to averaging remain negligibly small. Further, using a fully relativistic and reasonably generic model of pressureless spherical collapse, we show that as long as matter velocities remain small (which is true in our model), the perturbed FLRW form of the metric can be explicitly recovered. Together, these results imply that the backreaction remains small even during nonlinear structure formation, and we confirm this within the toy model with a numerical calculation.

description: Measurements of magnetic fields in the prototype of the OPERA spectrometer are re-ported. Both the magnetic flux B in the iron and the fringe field in air have been measured by means of pick up coils and Hall probes. These measurements are aimed to the deter-mination of the value of B in the bulk of the spectrometer for different currents and test the magnetic properties of the material in a full-scale prototype. Moreover, comparisons with simulations based on finite-element analysis have been carried out.

description: In this paper we study a novel means of coupling neutrinos to a Lorentz violating background k-essence field. We first look into the effect that k-essence has on the neutrino dispersion relation and derive a general formula for the neutrino velocity in the presence on a k-essence background. The influence of k-essence coupling on neutrino oscillations is then considered. It is found that a non-diagonal k-essence coupling leads to an oscillation length that goes like λ\sim E^{-1} where E is the energy. This should be contrasted with the λ\sim E dependence seen in the standard mass-induced mechanism of neutrino oscillations. While such a scenario is not favored experimentally, it places constraints on the interactions of the neutrino with a cosmological k-essence scalar background by requiring it to be flavor diagonal. All non-trivial physical effects discussed here require the speed of sound to be different from the speed of light and hence are primarily a consequence of Lorentz violation.

Measurement of heat transfer coefficient in concentric and eccentric annuli
Creators: name: Choudhury, Wasiuddin
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Heat transfer coefficients were measured at the inner wall of smooth concentric and eccentric annuli. The annuli were formed by an outer plastic tube of 3 in. inside diameter and an inner core cylinder of 1 in outside diameter. Air at room temperature was allowed to flow through the annuli at a Reynolds number range from 15,000 to 65,000. The measurement of heat transfer coefficient was made by a transient heat transfer test technique. The method consisted in establishing an initial temperature gradient between the fluid and a solid body mounted on the core cylinder by heating, then observing and recording the temperature-time history of the body as it returned to equilibrium condition with the fluid stream. The heat transfer coefficient was calculated from this record. The final results were presented in graphical form showing variations of Nusselt number with Reynolds number. The results of the concentric annulus tests agreed favourably with those predicted by Wiegand (2) and Monrad and Pelton (3). The effect of eccentricity was to reduce the heat transfer coefficient although the general trend was identical to that in the concentric annulus case. It was observed that the decrease of heat transfer coefficient was not linearly related to the eccentricity of the core cylinder. The effect of eccentricity was more pronounced in the range 0 ≤ e ≤ 0.5 where the value of heat transfer coefficient decreased considerably.

description: Inclusive electron-proton and electron-deuteron inelastic cross sections have been measured at Jefferson Lab (JLab) in the resonance region, at large Bjorken x, up to 0.92, and four-momentum transfer squared Q2 up to 7.5 GeV2 in the experiment E00-116. These measurements are used to extend to larger x and Q2 precision, quantitative, studies of the phenomenon of quark-hadron duality. Our analysis confirms, both globally and locally, the apparent violation of quark-hadron duality previously observed at a Q2 of 3.5 GeV2 when resonance data are compared to structure function data created from CTEQ6M and MRST2004 parton distribution functions (PDFs). More importantly, our new data show that this discrepancy saturates by Q2 ~ 4 Gev2, becoming Q2 independent. This suggests only small violations of Q2 evolution by contributions from the higher-twist terms in the resonance region which is confirmed by our comparisons to ALEKHIN and ALLM97.We conclude that the unconstrained strength of the CTEQ6M and MRST2004 PDFs at large x is the major source of the disagreement between data and these parameterizations in the kinematic regime we study and that, in view of quark-hadron duality, properly averaged resonance region data could be used in global QCD fits to reduce PDF uncertainties at large x.

description: After the high-luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, the ATLAS muon spectrometer is expected to work at 10 times increased background rates of gammas and neutrons. This is challenging as the momentum resolution of the spectrometer is expected to be 10 %. This requires a single tube resolution of the muon drift tubes of 80 mum. At background rates around 1000 Hz/cm2 space charge effects will lead in the slow and non-linear AR:CO2 = 93:7 gas mixture to a degradation of the drift-tube spatial resolution. This was studied before experimentally for gammas and low energetic neutrons. Almost no information exists for fast neutrons. Therefore, we organized our studies under the following aspects: - We investigated the influence of 11 MeV neutrons on the position resolution of ATLAS MDT chambers. At flux densities between 4 and 16 kHz/cm2, almost no influence on the position resolution was found, it degrades by only 10 mum at a detection efficiency of only 4*10-4. - We investigated inert gas mixtures on fastness and linearity of their position-drifttime (r-t) relation. At a reduction of the maximum drift time by a factor of 2, the use of the present hardware and electronics might be possible. For our experimental studies we used our Munich cosmic ray facility. Two gas mixtures show almost identical position resolution as the standard gas. - For spectrometer regions of highest background rates we contributed to the investigation of newly developed 15 mm drift tubes. Position resolutions have been measured as a function of gamma background rates between 0 and 1400 Hz/cm2. - Garfield simulations have been performed to simulate space charge effects due to gamma irradiation. Results will be presented for the standard geometry as well as for the new 15 mm drift tubes.
