description: Das Angebot von Schulsozialarbeit ist an mehr als der Hälfte aller Leipziger Schulen imple-mentiert. Rechtliche Rahmenbedingungen, Finanzierung, Konzeption und Qualitätskon-trolle der Schulsozialarbeit werden von der Stadt Leipzig mit einem Konzept zur Steuerung von Schulsoziarbeit geregelt. Dieses sieht die Vergabe von Schulsozialarbeit anhand eines Rankings der Schulen auf Basis sozialindikativer Faktoren vor. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, das Steuerungskonzept Schulsozialarbeit der Stadt Leipzig zu analysieren und die sozialin-dikative Steuerung zu bewerten. Es wird die Frage untersucht, inwiefern die wesentlichen Inhalte des Steuerungskonzepts mit fachtheoretischen Erkenntnissen zur Schulsozialarbeit korrespondieren und die sozialindikative Steuerung schlüssig erscheint. Um die Forschungs-frage zu beantworten, wurde eine systematische Literaturrecherche hinsichtlich der fachthe-oretischen Befunde zu Definition, Zielgruppen, Zielen und Wirkungen von Schulsozialarbeit durchgeführt. Diese Arbeit zeigt bedeutende inhaltliche Übereinstimmungen zwischen den Beschreibungen der Schulsozialarbeit im Steuerungskonzept und denen im Fachdiskurs auf. Ebenso beschreibt diese Arbeit jedoch deutlich, dass sich problematische Aspekte wie Fo-kussierung der Schulsozialarbeit auf schulische Interessen, Stigmatisierung von Schüler*in-nen und Aspekte der Fachdiskussion über die Zielgruppen von Schulsozialarbeit im Steue-rungskonzept der Stadt identifizieren lassen. Es wird belegt, dass ein Sozialindex geeignet sein kann, um Ungleichheiten zwischen Schulen darzustellen, jedoch keine Ausreichende Grundlage für die Implementierung von Schulsozialarbeit bietet und durchaus Probleme birgt.

description: Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find out how the application of corporate social responsibility at Koja Container Terminal is in accordance with the standards listed in ISO 26000. The research technique used in this study is a qualitative technique with a case study method. Where the study spot was carried out at Koja Container Terminal. Data collection is carried out by interviewing the parties responsible for CSR activities and other related parties such as employees, company leaders and the surrounding community. In addition, the necessary documents were also collected to be processed, analyzed and described in the discussion. From the results of the analysis, it is known that Koja Container Terminal has a concept in implementing CSR with the Triple Bottom Line, namely the concept of sustainability where there are three important pillars that must be fulfilled in implementing CSR, namely people, profits and planet. Of the three concepts, Koja Container Terminal has implemented CSR by adopting ISO 26000 even though in its implementation the Container Terminal does not yet have ISO 26000 certification and the results of the CSR implementation are more targeted and in accordance with the principles of CSR standards in the world.
The Fate of the First Galaxies. II. Effects of Radiative Feedback

description: [abridged]We use 3D cosmological simulations with radiative transfer to study the formation and evolution of the first galaxies in a LCDM cosmology. We find that the first luminous objects ("small-halos") are characterized by a bursting star formation (SF) that is self-regulated by a feedback process acting on cosmological instead of galactic scales. The global star formation history is regulated by the mean number of ionizing photons that escape from each source, ε_{UV}\fesc. It is almost independent of the assumed star formation efficiency parameter, ε_*, and the intensity of the dissociating background. The main feedback process that regulates the SF is the re-formation of H_2 in front of HII regions and inside relic HII regions. The HII regions remain confined inside filaments, maximizing the production of H_2 in overdense regions through cyclic destruction/reformation of H_2. If ε_{UV}\fesc > 10^{-8}/ε_* the SF is self-regulated, photo-evaporation of "small-halo" objects dominate the metal pollution of the low density IGM, and the mass of produced metals depends only on \fesc. If ε_{UV}\fesc \simlt 10^{-8}/ε_*, positive feedback dominates, and "small-halo" objects constitute the bulk of the mass in stars and metals at least until redshift z \sim 10. "Small-halo" objects cannot reionize the universe because the feedback mechanism confines the HII regions inside the large scale structure filaments. In contrast to massive objects, which can reionize voids, "small-halo" objects partially ionize only the dense filaments while leaving the voids mostly neutral.

Flow Equation of Quantum Einstein Gravity in a Higher-Derivative Truncation

description: Motivated by recent evidence indicating that Quantum Einstein Gravity (QEG) might be nonperturbatively renormalizable, the exact renormalization group equation of QEG is evaluated in a truncation of theory space which generalizes the Einstein-Hilbert truncation by the inclusion of a higher-derivative term $(R^2)$. The beta-functions describing the renormalization group flow of the cosmological constant, Newton's constant, and the $R^2$-coupling are computed explicitly. The fixed point (FP) properties of the 3-dimensional flow are investigated, and they are confronted with those of the 2-dimensional Einstein-Hilbert flow. The non-Gaussian FP predicted by the latter is found to generalize to a FP on the enlarged theory space. In order to test the reliability of the $R^2$-truncation near this FP we analyze the residual scheme dependence of various universal quantities; it turns out to be very weak. The two truncations are compared in detail, and their numerical predictions are found to agree with a suprisingly high precision. Due to the consistency of the results it appears increasingly unlikely that the non-Gaussian FP is an artifact of the truncation. If it is present in the exact theory QEG is probably nonperturbatively renormalizable and ``asymptotically safe''. We discuss how the conformal factor problem of Euclidean gravity manifests itself in the exact renormalization group approach and show that, in the $R^2$-truncation, the investigation of the FP is not afflicted with this problem. Also the Gaussian FP of the Einstein-Hilbert truncation is analyzed; it turns out that it does not generalize to a corresponding FP on the enlarged theory space.

description: The media is constructed and interpreted through what people 'know'. That knowledge is, forthe most part, created through day to day experiences. In Pakistan, Islam and nationalism aretwo components of this social knowledge which are intrinsically tied to the experiences of thePakistani people. Censorship and selection are means through which this knowledge isarticulated and interpreted.General conceptions of partially shared large scale bodies of knowledge and ideas reinforce,and are reinforced by, general medium of mass communication: the print and electronic media.Focusing on the govermnent, media institutions and Pakistani elites, I describe and analyse thedifferent, sometimes conflicting, interpretations of Islam and Pakistani nationalism manifest inand through media productions presented in Pakistan.The media means many things, not least of which is power. It is the media as a source ofpower that is so frequently controlled, directed and manipulated. The terminology may beslightly different according to the context within which one is talking - propaganda, selection,etc. - but ultimately it comes down to the same thing - censorship. Each of the three groups:government, media institutions and Pakistani elites - have the power to interpret and censormedia content and consideration must be taken of each of the other power holders consequentlyrestricting the power of each group in relation to the other two. The processes of thismanipulation and their consequences form the major themes of this thesis.

description: The aim of this paper is to present a possible framework for incorporating a superspace formulation of supersymmetry into the formalism of noncommutative geometry à la Alain Connes. In analogy with the almost-commutative (AC) manifold construction of field theory, a base space is taken to be the superspace $\mathbb{R}^{3 | 2}$, with associated 2-point (Grassmann valued) finite space. The data of the spectral triple is explored, including decorations, i.e. algebra, Hilbert space, grading, real structure, and Dirac operator. The gauge fields arising from the inner fluctuations of the Dirac operator are computed. And both the SUSY invariant spectral action and fermionic actions are calculated.

description: The electrodynamic response of the spin-ladder compound Sr$_{14-x}$Ca$_x$Cu$_{24}$O$_{41}$ ($x=0, 3, 9$) has been studied from radiofrequencies up to the infrared. At temperatures below 250 K a pronounced absorption peak appears around 12 cm$^{-1}$ in Sr$_{14}$Cu$_{24}$O$_{41}$ for the radiation polarized along the chains/ladders (${\bf E}\parallel {\bf c}$). In addition a strongly temperature dependent dielectric relaxation is observed in the kHz - MHz range. We explain this behavior by a charge density wave which develops in the ladders sub-system and produces a mode pinned at 12 cm$^{-1}$. With increasing Ca doping the mode shifts up in frequency and eventually disappears for $x=9$ because the dimensionality of the system crosses over from one to two dimensions, giving way to the superconducting ground state under pressure.

There is a clean break in the EW period-luminosity relation at $\rm \log (\rm P/d){\simeq}-0.30$, separating the longer period early-type EW binaries from the shorter period, late-type systems. The two populations are even more cleanly separated in the space of period and effective temperature, by $\rm T_{eff}=6710\,K-1760\,K\,\log(P/0.5\,d)$. Early-type and late-type EW binaries follow opposite trends in $\rm T_{eff}$ with orbital period. For longer periods, early-type EW binaries are cooler, while late-type systems are hotter. We derive period-luminosity relationships (PLRs) in the $W_{JK}$, $V$, Gaia DR2 $G$, $J$, $H$, $K_s$ and $W_1$ bands for the late-type and early-type EW binaries separated both by period and effective temperature, and by period alone. The dichotomy of contact binaries is almost certainly related to the Kraft break and the related changes in envelope structure, winds and angular momentum loss.

description: This paper analyzes the impact of a merger in the French retail sector on food prices, using a consumer panel data. We perform a difference-in-differences analysis by comparing price changes in stores for which the local market structure is affected by the merger to unaffected stores. In addition, we empirically investigate economic forces behind the observed price changes. On average, we find that the merger significantly raised competitors' prices contemporaneously with merging firms' price increases. Further, we show that competitor prices increase more in local markets that experience larger structural changes in concentration and chain differentiation.

description: Three simple idealised models are studied in order to develop some intuition about the leading order effect of non-sphericity on the maximum turnaround size $R_{\rm TA,max}$ of large scale bound cosmic structures. Two of them describe intrinsically axisymmetric static mass distributions whereas the other is the Kerr-de Sitter metric where the axisymmetry is generated due to the rotation of the structure. In all the cases the fractional change $δR_{\rm TA,max}(θ)/R^{(0)}_{\rm TA,max}$ of $R_{\rm TA,max}$ of a given structure, compared to a spherical one with the same mass $M$, depends on the polar angle $θ$ and is proportional to the product of the relevant eccentricity parameter, times the square of a small quantity. This quantity in the static examples is the ratio of two characteristic length scales, while in the spinning case it is the ratio $v_{\rm out}/c$ of the azimuthal speed of the outmost members of the structure, over the speed of light. Furthermore, the angular average $\langle δR_{\rm TA,max}(θ)/R^{(0)}_{\rm TA,max}\rangle$ is zero in the two static cases, while it is negative and proportional to ${\cal O}(v^2_{\rm out}/c^2)$ for the Kerr-de Sitter. Thus, $δR_{\rm TA,max}(θ)/R^{(0)}_{\rm TA,max}$ for an axisymmetric structure is very small for practically any value of the eccentricity parameter. We speculate about some possible further implications of our result on the maximum turn around radius of realistic cosmic structures.

Diagnostic testing uptake rates in fragile x premutation carriers and couples at risk for an autosomal recessive condition in their offspring
Creators: name: Snyder, Kendall
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: Expanded Carrier Screening (ECS) is a blood test designed to identify carrier status for hundreds of recessive some X-linked conditions. This allows identification of carrier couples and female X-linked recessive carriers at risk to have an affected child. Very little research has been done to assess the reproductive decision-making process in at-risk pregnancies. Our goal was to investigate whether patients, whose fetus is at risk, undergo diagnostic, invasive testing and when affected, if they opt for termination of pregnancy. This study was a retrospective chart review. A total of 116 at-risk pregnancies were reviewed, of which 73/116 (63%) were at risk for an autosomal recessive condition. Of these patients 41/73 (56%) chose to undergo invasive testing. Those that chose diagnostic testing, 7/41 (17%) had an affected fetus and the majority, 6/7 (86%), opted for termination of pregnancy. A total of 43 female Fragile X premutation carriers, of which 18/43 (42%) opted for invasive diagnostic testing. Of these, three were confirmed to have a fetus with >200 CGG repeats and all three opted for termination of pregnancy. Increasing CGG repeats in premutation carriers correlated with higher invasive testing uptake rates. Our study demonstrates that more than half of patients at-risk for a fetus with a single gene disorder will undergo diagnostic fetal testing and when affected, the majority chose termination of pregnancy.

description: This research focuses on estimating and understanding the costs and causes of transportation related supply chain disruptions. In-depth interviews with logistics managers were undertaken to investigate how companies perceive transportation related supply chain disruptions and what they are doing to respond and address them. Stated choice experiments were designed to estimate the cost of disruptions for containers in international maritime trade. The results of the discrete choice models indicate that disruption costs are several times larger than traditional values of freight travel time and reliability.

description: A recent breakthrough by Tang (STOC 2019) showed how to "dequantize" the quantum algorithm for recommendation systems by Kerenidis and Prakash (ITCS 2017). The resulting algorithm, classical but "quantum-inspired", efficiently computes a low-rank approximation of the users' preference matrix. Subsequent works have shown how to construct efficient quantum-inspired algorithms for approximating the pseudo-inverse of a low-rank matrix as well, which can be used to (approximately) solve low-rank linear systems of equations. In the present paper, we pursue this line of research and develop quantum-inspired algorithms for a large class of matrix transformations that are defined via the singular value decomposition of the matrix. In particular, we obtain classical algorithms with complexity polynomially related (in most parameters) to the complexity of the best quantum algorithms for singular value transformation recently developed by Chakraborty, Gilyén and Jeffery (ICALP 2019) and Gilyén, Su, Low and Wiebe (STOC19).

description: Consider a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $α\binom{n}{2}$ edges which does not contain an induced $K_{2, t}$ ($t \geqslant 2$). How large does $α$ have to be to ensure that $G$ contains, say, a large clique or some fixed subgraph $H$? We give results for two regimes: for $α$ bounded away from zero and for $α= o(1)$. Our results for $α= o(1)$ are strongly related to the Induced Turán numbers which were recently introduced by Loh, Tait, Timmons and Zhou. For $α$ bounded away from zero, our results can be seen as a generalisation of a result of Gyárfás, Hubenko and Solymosi and more recently Holmsen (whose argument inspired ours).

description: The correspondence between del Pezzo surfaces and field theory models over the complex numbers or for split real forms is extended to other real forms, in particular to those compatible with supersymmetry. Specifically, all theories of the Magic triangle that reduce to the pure supergravities in four dimensions correspond to singular real del Pezzo surfaces and the same is true for the Magic square of N=2 SUGRAS. A real del Pezzo surface is the invariant set under an antilinear involution of a complex one. This conjugation induces an involution of the Picard group that preserves the anticanonical class and the intersection form. The known non-split U-duality algebras are embedded into superBorcherds algebras defined by their Cartan matrix (minus the intersection form) and fixed by the anti-involution. These data may be described by Tits-Satake bicoloured diagrams. As in the split case, oxidation results from blowing down disjoint real P^1's of self-intersection -1. The singular del Pezzo surfaces of interest are obtained by degenerating regular surfaces upon contraction of real curves of self-intersection -2. We use the finite classification of real simple singularities to exhibit the relevant normal surfaces. We also give a general construction of more magic triangles like a type I split magic triangle and prove their (approximate) symmetry with respect to their diagonal, this symmetry argument was announced in our previous paper for the split case.

description: Supplementary Fig. 3. Foraminifera stable isotopes across the NKK-1 borehole EOT succession on the depth scale. The zone of faded isotopic data points highlights where extensive infilling with sparry calcite is associated with isotopically depleted ε18O and ε13C values even in separated test fragments (c. 53–47 mbs), masking the primary foraminiferal/ocean signal. The dashed vertical pale blue and pale grey lines (planktonic and benthic respectively) represent late Eocene ‘base-line’ ‘unaltered values’ used as a threshold for determining which data points contain significant diagenetic calcite bias and, thus, should be excluded from our interpretation (see Supplementary Fig. 3).

description: In this paper we have developed a Geographic Information Systems based model to support cellulosic ethanol plant least-cost location decisions by integrating geographic distribution of biomass in the study area with associated transportation costs. As an initial step of a multi-factor spatial optimization problem, including both feedstock transportation and ethanol distribution cost, the study investigated the influence of feedstock transportation costs on optimal location decisions. To achieve that purpose, the feedstock resources, in this analysis forest biomass and agricultural crop residue, were spatially investigated relative to the road network and potential cellulosic ethanol plant locations in the state of Washington. The flexibility of the model allows spatial manipulation of the data for the least-cost location identifications considering both cumulative and separate types of feedstock utilization scenarios. Study results show that the ethanol plant transportation cost-minimizing location decisions are significantly influenced by the type of the feedstock utilized, and vary depending on the processing plant capacities.
What has happened to airline operating expenses Since deregulation?

description: When airline deregulation was adopted in October 1978, the performance of the regulated trunk, local service and Alaskan/Hawaiian airlines (the original carriers) differed substantially from that of the four intrastate carriers whose operations solely within California, Florida or Texas had not been subject to the regulation of interstate air transportation by the Civil Aeronautics Board. One of these differences was the substantially lower total operating expenses per revenue ton-mile (RTM) of the intrastate carriers compared with that of the original carriers after adjusting for the effects of distance. Proponents of deregulation predicted that without regulation a number of new low-cost carriers would enter the interstate industry and the resulting competition would motivate the original carriers to reduce their operating expenses per RTM. This paper examines what actually happened in this regard between 1978 and 2005. There are three parts to this issue. First, did the original carriers’ distance-adjusted total operating expenses per RTM (measured in constant 1978 dollars) decrease after 1978? Second, were most of the 133 new airlines that entered the industry actually low-cost operators relative to the original carriers, or were many relatively high-cost operators? Third, in general, did the differences in distance-adjusted operating expenses per RTM between the two groups become smaller or larger over time? That is, did their operating expenses per RTM converge or diverge under deregulation? The evidence in this paper supports the prediction that the original carriers’ operating expenses per RTM did decrease. However, while most of the new carriers were low-cost carriers, many proved to be relatively high cost – some by design and others unintentionally. Finally, while the evidence is not clear-cut, it does imply that there has been some convergence in the operating expenses per RTM of the original carriers and the new-independent carriers.

description: This paper examines the methods by which a regional transportation agency, the Ada County Highway District (ACHD), has diversified its funding programs and created new initiatives to address the growing funding gap for transportation infrastructure that has proliferated at national, state and local levels. ACHD is a unique agency in that it has jurisdiction over the local public highway system within six cities and the county in Ada County, Idaho, and manages aspects of the state highway system within its jurisdiction. The multi-jurisdictional role of ACHD has fostered numerous financing strategies and partnerships among state and local government entities, as well as the private sector, to address local transportation needs in an innovative and productive manner. A series of policy statements developed by ACHD in the mid-1990s serve as the impetus for these programs, which locally projects the philosophy and intent of innovative financing programs established through Federal transportation bills.

description: Deuteron two-body photodisintegration is analysed within the framework of the Quark-Gluon Strings Model. The model describes fairly well the recent experimental data from TJNAF in the few GeV region. Angular distributions at different $γ$-energies are presented and the effect of a forward-backward asymmetry is discussed. New results from the QGSM for polarization observables from 1.5 -- 6 GeV are presented and compared with the available data.

description: This paper examines risks affecting Private-Public Partnership (PPP) projects in road infrastructure and the ways of sharing risk between the two partners. It provides a comprehensive typology of risks and, most importantly, attempts to identify PPP-specific risks or risks more likely to arise under a PPP arrangement than under traditional financing or complete privatization. The paper assesses the U.S. experience in the use of PPPs for road infrastructure and identifies the most important risk-factors.
