description: In this chapter, we briefly review the history of X-ray astronomy through its missions. We follow a temporal development, from the first instruments onboard rockets and balloons to the most recent and complex space missions. We intend to provide the reader with detailed information and references on the many missions and instruments that have contributed to the success of the exploration of the X-ray universe. We have not included missions that are still operating, providing the worldwide community with high-quality observations. Specific chapters for these missions are included in a dedicated section of the handbook.

description: The Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) is a well established technique for position and velocity estimation. However, the performance of the EKF degrades considerably in highly non-linear system applications as it requires local linearisation in its prediction stage. The Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) was developed to address the non-linearity in the system by deterministic sampling. The UKF provides better estimation accuracy than the EKF for highly non-linear systems. However, the UKF requires multiple propagations of sampled state vectors in the measurement interval, which results in higher processing time than for the EKF. This paper proposes an application of two newly developed UKF variants in launch vehicle navigation. These two algorithms called the Single Propagation Unscented Kalman Filter (SPUKF) and the Extrapolated Single Propagation Unscented Kalman Filter (ESPUKF), reduce the processing time of the original UKF significantly and provide estimation accuracies comparable to the UKF. The estimation performance of the SPUKF and the ESPUKF is demonstrated using Falcon 9 V1.1 launch vehicle in CRS-5 mission scenario. The launch vehicle trajectory for the mission is generated using publicly available mission parameters. A SPIRENT GNSS simulator is used to generate the received GPS signal on the trajectory. Pseudo-range observations are used in the EKF, UKF, SPUKF and the ESPUKF separately and the estimation accuracies are compared. The results show that the estimation errors of the SPUKF and the ESPUKF are 15.44% and 10.52% higher than the UKF respectively. The processing time reduces by 83% for the SPUKF and 69.14% for the ESPUKF compared to the UKF.

description: The major aim of the study was to examine the effect of service quality on customer loyalty on commercial Banks in Ethiopia. Moreover, the study tries to investigate the relationship between service quality and customer loyalty. Bank service quality (BSQ) model of Bahia and Nantel,(2000) was used to evaluate overall level of service quality and its effect on customer loyalty. The model had six factors; effectiveness and assurance, price, Access, Tangibles, Service portfolio and Reliability. Descriptive and explanatory research approaches were used. Four commercial banks namely CBE, Dashen bank, united Bank and Wegagen banks were selected randomly and 384 questionnaires were administered to customers of all banks using convenience-sampling method and 300 responses were analyzed in to SPSS version24. The correlation result indicated that there is a positive and significant relationship between all BSQ dimensions and customer loyalty. Tangible dimension has the highest effect on customer loyalty. Moreover, the regression result indicated that effectiveness and assurance and reliability have a positive but insignificant effect on customer loyalty

description: We discuss the clusters of resources that emerge when upper-division students write about electromagnetic fields in linear materials. The data analyzed for this paper comes from students' written tests in an upper-division electricity and magnetism course. We examine how these clusters change with time and context. The evidence shows that students benefit from activating resources related to the internal structure of the atom when thinking about electric fields and their effect on materials. We argue that facilitating activation of certain resources by the instructor in the classroom can affect the plasticity of those resources in the student, making them more solid and easily activated. We find that the wording of the questions posed to students affects which resources are activated, and that students often fill in resources to link known phenomena to phenomena described by the question when lacking detailed mental models.

Work, work fluctuations, and the work distribution in a thermal non-equilibrium steady state

description: Long-ranged correlations generically exist in non-equilibrium fluid systems. In the case of a non-equilibrium steady state caused by a temperature gradient the correlations are especially long-ranged and strong. The anomalous light scattering predicted to exist in these systems is well-confirmed by numerous experiments. Recently the Casimir force or pressure due to these fluctuations or correlations have been discussed in great detail. In this paper the notion of a Casimir work is introduced and a novel way to measure the non-equilibrium Casimir force is suggested. In particular, the non-equilibrium Casimir force is related to a non-equilibrium heat and not, as in equilibrium, to a volume derivative of an average energy. The non-equilibrium work fluctuations are determined and shown to be very anomalous compared to equilibrium work fluctuations. The non-equilibrium work distribution is also computed, and contrasted to work distributions in systems with short-range correlations. Again, there is a striking difference in the two cases. Formal theories of work and work distributions in non-equilibrium steady states are not explicit enough to illustrate any of these interesting features.

description: Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis provides one picture of thermalization in a quantum system by looking at individual eigenstates. However, it is also important to consider how local observables reach equilibrium values dynamically. Quench protocol is one of the settings to study such questions. A recent numerical study [Bañuls, Cirac, and Hastings, Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 050405 (2011)] of a nonintegrable quantum Ising model with longitudinal field under such quench setting found different behaviors for different initial quantum states. One particular case called "weak thermalization" regime showed apparently persistent oscillations of some observables. Here we provide an explanation of such oscillations. We note that the corresponding initial state has low energy density relative to the ground state of the model. We then use perturbation theory near the ground state and identify the oscillation frequency as essentially a quasiparticle gap. With this quasiparticle picture, we can then address the long-time behavior of the oscillations. Upon making additional approximations which intuitively should only make thermalization weaker, we argue that the oscillations nevertheless decay in the long time limit. As part of our arguments, we also consider a quench from a BEC to a hard-core boson model in one dimension. We find that the expectation value of a single-boson creation operator oscillates but decays exponentially in time, while a pair-boson creation operator has oscillations with a $t^{-3/2}$ decay in time. We also study dependence of the decay time on the density of bosons in the low-density regime and use this to estimate decay time for oscillations in the original spin model.

Year: 2018

description: The general objective of this study is to investigate the effect of positioning on customer loyalty Habesha Brewery. The research type is a casual research type. A total of 384 questionnaires were distributed from this 363 were collected and used for the analysis purpose. Deliberate or judgmental sampling was used for sampling procedure. Both primary and secondary data were the source of data collection. Data collection method took place in Addis Ababa specifically in Saris, Stadium, Piassa, Arat kilo, Gerji and 22 areas. The research instrument is structured questioner. The findings of the mean value revealed that positioning differentiation shows the lowest score (mean=3.72). The correlation analysis revealed that coefficients that show the five determinants measuring positioning are all positively related with customer loyalty within the range of 0.446-0.870, all are significant at p<0.01 level. A 90% change of the dependent variable (customer loyalty) on the Positioning is explained by the dependent variables which are included in the regression model. From the findings and conclusions of this study delivery, communication and relevance, durability and differentiation are the most important influencing factors of customer loyalty for consumers of Habesha beer. Habesha brewery Share Company should take into consideration that the important determinant of positioning for their consumers is delivery, communication and relevance. Therefore, in order to avoid easy switch of consumers between beer brands and build a strong customer loyalty Habesha Brewery should not only concentrate on creating highly differentiated product (i.e. differentiating their beer taste, pleasant experience and quality) but also consistency of the created uniqueness.

Creators: name: Lucidi  ,  Flavia
Publisher: name: Roma TrE-Press
Year: 2023

description: Protagoniste di questo saggio sono le donne migranti e il loro ruolo nei processi migratori: sono madri, mogli, figlie, sorelle che hanno lasciato il loro Paese e si sono stabilite a vivere altrove, spesso tendendo a mantenere continui e significativi legami con il Paese d’origine, malgrado le distanze e le frontiere. Le distanze a cui si fa riferimento non sono solo quelle del conteggio chilometrico e dei fusi orari, sono soprattutto distanze affettive ed emotive. L’intento di questo contributo, in particolar modo, è quello di analizzare la relazione genitoriale madri-figli “a distanza” in un’ottica socio-pedagogica e indagare l’impatto che il fenomeno dell’emigrazione esercita sia sul genitore che ha intrapreso il percorso migratorio sia sui figli minori rimasti in patria.

The protagonists of this essay are migrant women and their role in migratory processes: they are mothers, wives, daughters, sisters who have left their country and have settled to live elsewhere, often tending to maintain continuous and significant ties with the country of origin, despite distances and frontiers. The distances referred to are not only those of the kilometer count and time zones, but they are also above all affective and emotional distances. The intent of this contribution is to analyze the "remote" mother-child parental relationship from a sociopedagogical perspective and to investigate the impact that the phenomenon of emigration has on the parent who has undertaken the migration path and on the minor children who remained at home

description: Application of two new UKF based estimation techniques with reduced processing time in re-entry vehicle position and velocity estimation problem using ground-based range and elevation measurements is presented. The first method is called the Single Propagation Unscented Kalman Filter (SPUKF) where, the a postiriori state is propagated only once and then the sampled sigma points at the next time state are approximated by the first-order Taylor Series terms. In the second method called the Extrapolated Single Propagation Unscented Kalman Filter (ESPUKF), the sigma points are approximated to the second-order Taylor Series terms using the Richardson Extrapolation. The EKF, SPUKF, ESPUKF and the UKF are utilized in a re-entry vehicle navigation scenario using range and elevation measurements. The estimation accuracies and the processing times for different algorithms are compared for the scenario. The result demonstrates that the UKF provides better accuracy than the EKF but requires more processing time. The SPUKF accuracy is better than the EKF and the processing time is significantly less than the UKF. However, the accuracy of the SPUKF is less than the UKF. The ESPUKF provides estimation accuracy comparable to the UKF and the processing time is also significantly reduced.

description: Many-body localised phases of disordered, interacting quantum systems allow for exotic localisation protected quantum order in eigenstates at arbitrarily high energy densities. In this work, we analyse the manifestation of such order on the Hilbert-space anatomy of eigenstates. Quantified in terms of non-local Hilbert-spatial correlations of eigenstate amplitudes, we find that the spread of the eigenstates on the Hilbert-space graph is directly related to the order parameters which characterise the localisation protected order, and hence these correlations, in turn, characterise the order or lack thereof. Higher-point eigenstate correlations also characterise the different entanglement structures in the many-body localised phases, with and without order, as well as in the ergodic phase. The results pave the way for characterising the transitions between many-body localised phases and the ergodic phase in terms of scaling of emergent correlation lengthscales on the Hilbert-space graph.

description: Most large molecules are chiral in their structure: they exist as two enantiomers, which are mirror images of each other. Whereas the rovibronic sublevels of two enantiomers are almost identical, it turns out that the photoelectric effect is sensitive to the absolute configuration of the ionized enantiomer - an effect termed Photoelectron Circular Dichroism (PECD). Our comprehensive study demonstrates that the origin of PECD can be found in the molecular frame electron emission pattern connecting PECD to other fundamental photophysical effects as the circular dichroism in angular distributions (CDAD). Accordingly, orienting a chiral molecule in space enhances the PECD by a factor of about 10.

The study made use of both primary and secondary data and analyzed by using SPSS version 20.By using Descriptive statistics methods as frequencies, percentages, mean and standard deviations. major finding of the study, revealed that the agency have highly influenced by factors that time management, performance appraisal systems, employee benefit, Organizational policies, effective leadership and efficiency and effectiveness. The study recommends that Performance is the true litmus test for survival in the organization work flow. Effective system should encourage collaboration, teamwork, and communication must be needed. Performance appraisal can have significant positive impacts on employee performance and organizational effectiveness if it is organized and manage according to the standard. Governmental organization should come up with more effective strategies for ensuring effective implementation of result based performance evaluation systems in organizations. This can be done by identifying the results being sought in clear and measurable terms and developing a conceptual framework for how the results will be achieved.
title: Decision-Making in Serious Violence and Offence-Related Shame and/or Guilt
Creators: name: Mottershead, Trixie
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2525

description: Objectives: To date, psychological theories of aggression have shown limited applicability to the first-hand experience of real-world violence. Examining the experiences of those directly involved in violent offending, may enable professionals to develop a strengthened and more refined understanding. The current study aimed to develop a theoretical model of offender experiences of decision-making, during the commission of a violent offence. 

Methods: The Critical Decision Method (CDM) for cognitive task analysis was conducted within a British prison, with nine participants who had been convicted of a serious violent offence. Interview transcripts were analysed using constructivist Grounded Theory (CGT). 

Results: Seven themes were interpreted from participant narratives: (i) predisposing influences, (ii) environment, (iii) emotion, (iv) triggering events, (v) decision to act, (vi) identity and (vii) severity of harm caused to the victim. Participants’ narratives were found to focus upon a process of decision-making which followed a sequence of events, from the impact of early experiences, through to the in-the-moment decisions, that led to acting in a violent manner. 

Conclusion: This study provides novel insights into the experience of violent decision-making. Participants emphasised the role of emotion and identity. A range of clinical implications are discussed which highlight the important role of emotion regulation and identity transformation in the rehabilitation of violent offenders.

description: A search for the direct production of a pair of $\tau$ sleptons, the supersymmetric partners of $\tau$ leptons, is presented. Each $\tau$ slepton is assumed to decay to a $\tau$ lepton and the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP), which is assumed to be stable and to not interact in the detector, leading to an imbalance in the total reconstructed transverse momentum. The search is carried out in events identified as containing two $\tau$ leptons, each decaying to one or more hadrons and a neutrino, and significant transverse momentum imbalance. In addition to scenarios in which the $\tau$ sleptons decay promptly, the search also addresses scenarios in which the $\tau$ sleptons have sufficiently long lifetimes to give rise to nonprompt $\tau$ leptons. The data were collected in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV at the CERN LHC with the CMS detector in 2016-2018, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. No significant excess is seen with respect to standard model expectations. Upper limits on cross sections for the pair production of $\tau$ sleptons are obtained in the framework of simplified models. In a scenario in which the $\tau$ sleptons are superpartners of left-handed $\tau$ leptons, and each undergoes a prompt decay to a $\tau$ lepton and a nearly massless LSP, $\tau$ slepton masses between 115 and 340 GeV are excluded. In a scenario in which the lifetime of the $\tau$ sleptons corresponds to $c\tau_0$ = 0.1 mm, where $\tau_{0}$ represents the mean proper lifetime of the $\tau$ slepton, masses between 150 and 220 GeV are excluded.

The project Smart Cities aNd Digital Twins in Lower Austria (SCiNDTiLA) extends the state of the art of research in several contributing disciplines and uses the foundations of complexity theory and computational social science methods to develop a digital-twin-based smart city model. The project will also apply a novel transdisciplinary process to conceptualise sustainable smart cities and validate the smart city generic model. The outcomes will be translated into a roadmap highlighting methodologies, guidelines and policy recommendations for tackling societal challenges in smart cities with a focus on rescaling the entire framework to be transferred to regions, smaller towns and non-urban environments, such as rural areas and smart villages, in ways that fit the respective local governance, ethical and operational capacity context.

AML/CFT is a global issue, all regimes in the world are required to cooperate with each other to apply FATF's Recommendation's which are endorsed by UN and criminalize ML/TF, Ethiopia has started practicing AML/CFT in its banks and insurances, many progresses are made in the country within these few years. Based on the respondents from both FIC and commercial banks have been discharging their responsibilities by implementing and practicing AML/CFT at a moderate level, the finding show that both FIC staffs and risk and compliance department staffs in commercial banks have knowledge and awareness about the AML/CFT regime and they took adequate and basic training concerning of the preventive measurement of money laundering and terrorist financing offence. However, AML/CFT regime practice revealed that the existence of informal sector and cash based economy has exacerbating the money laundering offences, further, the finding confirmed that political Exposed Persons, Corruption and implementing Customer Due Diligence (CDD) & Know Your Customer (KYC) are serious challenges for banks. AML/CFT benefits measures confirmed that commercial banks understand the benefits of practicing the regime, the mean score in this regard is very high and above average.

description: Motivated by experiments performed by Landig et al. [Nature 532, 476-479], we consider a two dimensional Bose gas in an optical lattice, trapped inside a single mode superradiant Fabry Perot cavity. The cavity mediates infinite range checkerboard interactions between the atoms, which produces competition between Mott insulator, charge density wave, superfluid and supersolid phases. We calculate the phase diagram of this Bose gas in a homogeneous system and in the presence of a harmonic trap.

title:  Donne migranti: badanti o leader? Dalle strategie individuali per ostacolare la caduta della traiettoria dei migranti alle soluzioni collettive per superare la badantizzazione del welfare e promuovere lo spazio etico-politico della cura

description: A partire dalla seconda metà del ‘900 la femminilizzazione della sfera pubblica, le trasformazioni legate al mercato del lavoro e i cambiamenti demografici hanno ridisegnato i tempi di vita dei singoli, delle famiglie e delle città, hanno decostruito i tradizionali ruoli di genere rimettendo in discussione gli equilibri tra sfera pubblica e privata, tra pubblico e domestico, tra cura e lavoro di cura. Il saggio parte da queste premesse e, prendendo spunto da quanto emerso nell’ambito della ricerca empirica sull'associazionismo delle donne migranti, indaga le strategie messe in campo dalle donne migranti per contenere il processo di caduta della traiettoria individuale in un contesto economico-sociale caratterizzato dalla badantizzazione del welfare. Traccia, poi, un nuovo scenario epistemologico e politico, caratterizzato da un’idea di cura ancorata a una visione comunitaria e di interdipendenza, solidale.

Since the second half of the 20th century, the feminization of the public sphere, transformations related to the labor market and demographic changes have reshaped the life times of individuals, families and cities, deconstructed traditional gender roles and called into question the balance between public and private spheres, public and domestic, care and care work. The essay starts from these premises and, taking its cue from the findings of empirical research on migrant women's associationism, investigates the strategies deployed by migrant women to contain the process of the fall of the individual trajectory in an economic-social context characterized by the caregiving of welfare. It then traces a new epistemological and political scenario, characterized by an idea of care anchored in a communitarian and interdependent, solidary vision.

Das sprachheilpädagogische Arbeitsfeld im Wechsel der politischen Systeme 1929 - 1949

description: Die vorliegende Untersuchung ist im Nahtbereich von Sprachheilpädagogik und Geschichtswissenschaft angesiedelt. Ausgehend von der Tatsache, dass sich die Sprachheilpädagogik als Anwendungswissenschaft nur unzureichend mit ihrer historischen Entwicklung, gerade in der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus, auseinandergesetzt hat, wurde in der Dissertation der Frage nachgegangen, inwieweit sich die politischen Wechsel im Zeitraum von 1929-1949 und die mit ihnen verbundenen ideologisch-weltanschaulichen Entwicklungen auf die Arbeit mit Kindern mit Sprachstörungen ausgewirkt haben. Dabei war im Falle des Nationalsozialismus besonders von der rassenideologischer und erbgesundheitlicher Zielsetzung auszugehen. Von maßgeblichen Interesse war außerdem, inwiefern personelle, inhaltliche und strukturelle Kontinuitäten in beiden deutschen Staaten zu erkennen sind. Somit leistet die historische Untersuchung der Sprachheilpädagogik im Untersuchungszeitraum sogleich einen Beitrag zu heutigen Standortbestimmung. Die Untersuchung konnte belegen, dass das sprachheilpädagogische Arbeitsfeld nach 1933 keinen Niedergang erfuhr, sondern sich in einigen Bereichen weiter entwickeln konnte. Das sprachheilpädagogische Arbeitsfeld verlagerte sein Betätigungsfeld vermehrt in die Sprachheilschule. Nur im Ansatz lassen sich Versuche einer Verwissenschaftlichung zugunsten einer ns.Wissenschaftsdisziplin feststellen. Der Stillstand durch die Kriegssituation ab 1940 steht der Entwicklung der Sprachheilpädagogik als eigene Fachdisziplin nach 1945 nicht hemmend gegenüber. Es gibt nach 1945 keinen Neuanfang in der Sprachheilpädagogik.

description: A weak invariant of a stochastic system is defined in such a way that its expectation value with respect to the distribution function as a solution of the associated Fokker-Planck equation is constant in time. A general formula is given for time evolution of fluctuations of the invariants. An application to the problem of share price in finance is illustrated. It is shown how this theory makes it possible to reduce the growth rate of the fluctuations.

description: A quantum scalar field in a patch of a fixed, topology-changing, $1+1$ dimensional "trousers" spacetime is studied using the Sorkin-Johnston formalism. The isometry group of the patch is the dihedral group, the symmetry group of the square. The theory is shown to be pathological in a way that can be interpreted as the topology change giving rise to a divergent energy, in agreement with previous results. In contrast to previous results, it is shown that the infinite energy is localised not only on the future light cone of the topology changing singularity, but also on the past cone, due to the time reversal symmetry of the Sorkin-Johnston state.

description: In the last decades, leadership research has favored transformational leadership to describe effective leadership behavior in organizations. In order to fill some troublesome research gaps around this demonstrably effective leadership process three empirical studies were conducted that shed light on transformational leadership from different angles. On the one hand, transformational leadership is investigated within a comprehensive process model of leadership that incorporates personality traits of the leader as antecedents, transactional leadership as a related leadership style, and different outcome criteria as consequences of transformationale leadership. On the other hand, this dissertation focuses on the methods of measurement that are typically applied. Drawing on methodological assumptions about the interplay of trait and method components in the measurement of constructs, confirmatory factor analyses of multitrait-multimethod data are applied to control for the method effects of supervisors’ self-ratings and followers’ other ratings. By this means, the discriminant validity of transformational and transactional leadership could be empirically confirmed for the first time in Study 1. Likewise, the subscales of transformational and transactional leadership were found to be distinguishable when method effects of rating perspectives were partialled out. In Study 2, three personality traits (achievement, extraversion, and emotional stability) showed substantial true-score correlations with transformational leadership, affirming its dispositional basis in contrast to previous research relying on cross-method zero-order correlations. Again, very strong method effects could be revealed that accounted for almost one half of the indicators’ variance. In Study 3, the latent factor scores for the personality traits and for transformational leadership were entered in a mediator model. Achievement and extraversion, as distal predictors, directly predicted transformational leadership and indirectly predicted followers’ job satisfaction and, particularly achievement, the objective criterion of a unit’s achieved sales profit. Transformational leadership, as a proximal predictor, fully mediated these relations between personality traits and leadership effectiveness. Implications for leadership research and HR practice are discussed.
