description: We report experimental studies of crystals of Mn12 molecular magnetic clusters in pulsed magnetic fields with sweep rates up to 4x10^3 T/s. The steps in the magnetization curve are observed at fields that are shifted with respect to the resonant field values. The shift systematically increases as the rate of the field sweep goes up. These data are consistent with the theory of the collective dipolar relaxation in molecular magnets.

description: The cationic gemini 1,3-bis-(1-tetradecylbenzimidazolium) propane bromide (BG14) surfactant has been synthesized and the influence of the levofloxacin (Lvf), a potential antibacterial drug on the micellar properties of BG14 surfactant was observed. Hence, it would be exciting to calculate the state of micelle-formation for designing a system that would be helpful in pharmaceutical formulations. Thus, various techniques like tensiometry, cyclic voltammetry, conductivity, UV-visible, fluorescence, and time-resolved fluorescence were utilized to investigate the interaction between BG14 surfactant with Lvf. In addition, Rubingh’s model was used to evaluate various mixed micellar parameters like X1, Xideal, cmc*, β, and GE. FTIR study confirmed the existence of inter-molecular interactions among Lvf+BG14 over the studied concentration range. Lastly, this study can prove to be impactful in measuring and developing gemini-surfactant immobilized Lvf for improved biological action.

description: Das Buch Älter werden. Gespräche über die Liebe, das Leben und das Loslassen der Chicagoer Rechtsphilosophin und Ethikerin Martha Nussbaum und des Juristen Saul Levmore von der gleichen Chicagoer School of Law nimmt seinen Ausgang an der Art des römischen Anwalts und Philosophen Marcus Tullius Cicero, dialektische Philosophie zu betreiben (De Senectute; Über das Alter; De Amicitia; Über die Freundschaft) (S. 76), mit einem Gesprächspartner in einen Dialog zu treten. Im Unterschied zu Ciceros fiktiven Gesprächen finden wir im vorliegenden Werk einen spannenden, aber auch bisweilen sehr akademisch-ambivalenten Dialog in 16 Essays, die die antike Philosophie und Dichtung (Aristoteles, Platon, Epikur, Lukrez, Euripides u.a.), christliche und jüdische Traditionen und Kommentierungen der Bibel über Shakespeare, Sartre, Beauvoir, Musik, Film und Kunst bis hin zu aktueller amerikanischer Politik (Donald Trump) durchstreifen und Antworten auf die Fragen menschlicher Endlichkeit und Sterblichkeit, Alter, Krankheit, Einschränkung der Fähigkeiten suchen, aber letztlich nicht aushalten. Im letzten (achten) Kapitel Großzügig sein diskutiert Martha Nussbaum Platons Symposion und fragt nach der Verbindung zwischen Altersweisheit – Großzügigkeit und Altruismus (S. 247ff), um »Gutes« zu tun (S. 250), was sprachlogisch ausgeführt wird. Letztlich muss das ganze Buch von hinten gelesen werden: Levmore erörtert die verschiedenen Phänomene der Paradoxie der Großzügigkeit und des Altruismus, und Nussbaum stellt die grundsätzliche Frage, wie Menschen mit ihrer Angst vor der Sterblichkeit, dem Sterben selbst und dem Tod umgehen (S. 251); sich jedoch von dieser Angst leiten und beeinflussen zu lassen, wäre im Duktus des Buches unredlich. In der stoischen, christlich-biblischen, jüdisch-biblischen Tradition und den entsprechenden Ethikmodellen geht es jedoch eher um eine Haltung der Selbstdisziplin und um ein »Streben, sich von Selbstbezogenheit und Gier zu lösen, was ständige Wachsamkeit und Meditation erfordern kann. Wenn alternde Menschen also vorbereitet sein wollen, wenn die Angst vor dem Tod zuschlägt, so sollten sie sich in diesem Streben üben.« (S. 254)Sich auf den Kontroll- und Mobilitätsverlust einzustellen, den eigenen Körper und die eigenen Fähigkeiten und Möglichkeiten loslassen und einschränken zu müssen, stellt die wesentliche Lernaufgabe des Menschen dar. Die Antwort der biblischen Traditionen wäre die Akzeptanz, auf den anderen Menschen angewiesen zu sein, weil Menschen soziale Wesen sind. Der Lebensmodus hieße, Alter, Sterben und Tod mit Humor und Selbstbescheidung zu ertragen (S. 257).

description: In the first essay, I consider the impact of tort liability on firms capital structure. Tort litigation is not only a substantial risk facing firms worldwide, but is also a unique form of risk, in that it can be exacerbated or mitigated by how firms adjust their debt-equity mix. I examine how firms ought to adjust their capital structure when faced with litigation, and consider various extensions to basic model. These include the interaction between capital structure, tort liability and insurance, how the problem changes when several firms face tort risk and are jointly and severally liable, and the implications that arise from moving from a one period to a two period setting. In the second essay, we develop and test a theory of insurers' choice of the mix of equity and liabilities. The role of equity in insurance markets and in our model is to back insurers' promises to pay claims when there is aggregate uncertainty, or dependence among risks. Depending on the nature of this aggregate uncertainty, the equity held by firms in a competitive insurance market may increase with rising uncertainty, or it may initially increase then decrease. The ratio of equity to revenue unambiguously increases with uncertainty. We test the model, as well as implications of recent models of insurance market dynamics, on a cross-section of U.S. property-liability insurers. In the third essay, I examine optimal contracting with risk averse managers. I start from the following observations: (1) managers select projects and exert effort; (2) risk averse managers make distorted project selection decisions, and this problem is increasing in risk aversion; (3) managers with low risk aversion are attracted to high-power compensation packages. I develop a model where high-power incentive contracts act as screening devices, helping firms attract less risk averse managers who will then make less distorted project selection decisions. Optimal contracts trade off the screening and effort-inducing benefits of incentive contracts against the deviation from optimal risk sharing. The resulting equilibrium provides a new perspective on why some managerial contracts feature such high-powered incentives, as well predictions for the cross-sectional variation in the power of incentive contracts.

Modeling and performance evaluations of teletraffic in cellular networks

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The growing interest for cellular technology has motivated operators to provide a wide variety of services from conventional circuit-switched voice to packet-switched data and multimedia applications. Providing these services anytime and anywhere is challenging due to not only frequent status changes in network connectivity, but also limited resources such as bandwidth. Different priorities are assigned to services to satisfy diverse QoS requirements. Call admission control schemes have been proposed to manage resources by selectively limiting the number of admitted calls to ensure that QoS measures such as call blocking/dropping probabilities stay within acceptable limits. Exact analysis methods based on multidimensional Markov chain models are used to evaluate performance of these schemes, yet they suffer from curse of dimensionality that results in very high computational cost. Large sets of equations are avoided using approximation methods based on one dimensional Markov chain models assuming that channel occupancy times are exponentially distributed with equal mean values and all calls require equal capacities. Existing approximation methods lead to significant discrepancies when average channel occupancy times differ. We propose a novel performance evaluation approximation method, effective holding time, with low computational complexity to relax this assumption. In multi-service networks, voice is accompanied by data and multimedia applications that require distinct capacities. When capacity requirements differ, existing approximation methods based on one dimensional Markov chain models become inaccurate if not obsolete. We propose a computationally efficient approximation method, state space decomposition, to relax this assumption. Numerical results show that the proposed method provide highly accurate results that match well with exact solutions. Traffic statistics are essential to understand the distribution of idle periods of voice channels to overlay packet-switched services on circuit-switched technology and to feed simulations with realistic data. Call holding and channel occupancy times are key elements for computing performance metrics such as call blocking/dropping probabilities. We present an empirical approach to determine the distribution of call holding and channel occupancy times. We show that lognormal distribution is the closest fitted candidate to approximate channel occupancy times and call holding times for stationary/mobile users along with the number of handoffs committed by a user.

description: The recent advances in language modeling significantly improved the generative capabilities of deep neural models: in 2019 OpenAI released GPT-2, a pre-trained language model that can autonomously generate coherent, non-trivial and human-like text samples. Since then, ever more powerful text generative models have been developed. Adversaries can exploit these tremendous generative capabilities to enhance social bots that will have the ability to write plausible deepfake messages, hoping to contaminate public debate. To prevent this, it is crucial to develop deepfake social media messages detection systems. However, to the best of our knowledge no one has ever addressed the detection of machine-generated texts on social networks like Twitter or Facebook. With the aim of helping the research in this detection field, we collected the first dataset of \real deepfake tweets, TweepFake. It is real in the sense that each deepfake tweet was actually posted on Twitter. We collected tweets from a total of 23 bots, imitating 17 human accounts. The bots are based on various generation techniques, i.e., Markov Chains, RNN, RNN+Markov, LSTM, GPT-2. We also randomly selected tweets from the humans imitated by the bots to have an overall balanced dataset of 25,572 tweets (half human and half bots generated). The dataset is publicly available on Kaggle. Lastly, we evaluated 13 deepfake text detection methods (based on various state-of-the-art approaches) to both demonstrate the challenges that Tweepfake poses and create a solid baseline of detection techniques. We hope that TweepFake can offer the opportunity to tackle the deepfake detection on social media messages as well.

description: The abuse of anaesthetic agent propofol is an increasing challenge in worldwide, therefore it is essential to develop simple and accurate methods for its detection. In the present study, a simple turn-off fluorescent sensing platform for the detection of propofol based on bovine serum albumin (BSA) stabilized gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) was developed. The fluorescent BSA-AuNCs were successfully prepared via previously reported microwave assisted method. The prepared red emitting BSA-AuNCs shows emission maximum at 685nm on excitation at 500nm. The fluorescence of the probe was quenched remarkably by the addition of propofol, due to electron transfer mechanism. The limit of detection (LoD) of propofol was found to be 0.12μM. This detection method has good selectivity towards propofol over other co-existing biomolecules and neurotransmitters. Moreover, this method was also utilized for the analysis of propofol spiked real samples (both blood serum & urine) and good recovery percentages were found. A paper strip assay was also successfully conducted for practical application.
Network dependence of strong reciprocity

description: Experimental evidence suggests that human decisions involve a mixture of self-interest and internalized social norms which cannot be accounted for by the Nash equilibrium behavior of Homo Oeconomicus. This led to the notion of strong reciprocity (or altruistic punishment) to capture the human trait leading an individual to punish norm violators at a cost to himself. For a population with small autonomous groups with collective monitoring, the interplay of intra- and intergroup dynamics shows this to be an adaptive trait, although not fully invasive of a selfish population. However, the absence of collective monitoring in a larger society changes the evolution dynamics. Clustering seems to be the network parameter that controls maintenance and evolution of the reciprocator trait.

description: There appears to exist strong similarities between the vēdar / vēḍā of Sri Lanka on one hand and the vēṭuvan and the irūlā on the other; the three could have arisen from the same ethnic stock. That is significant because according to Kulatilake, vēḍā or wanniya-laeto preserve a direct line of descent from the island's original Neolithic community dating between 26,000 and 5,000 BCE. [Kulatilake, 2016 : The Peopling of Sri Lanka from Prehistoric to Historic Times - Biological and Archaeological Evidence, in Companion to South Asia in the Past, 429] Kulatilake’s ‘original Neolithic community’ could mean the descendants of the earliest AMH that came to inhabit the region as they moved further to the east. It could therefore be reasonable to assume that the vēḍā in Sri Lanka along with the vēṭuvan and the irūlā in the Indian peninsula could be the real ‘aborigine’, the repository of the native Indian ancestry.

description: Selten ist eine historische Studie von derart politischer Relevanz wie dieser Band, den Susannah Heschel, Professorin für jüdische Studien am renommierten Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, soeben in der Reihe »Fröhliche Wissenschaft« vorgelegt hat. Denn in Zeiten populistischer Propaganda sowohl diesseits als auch jenseits des Atlantiks trägt diese Studie, die sich durch intellektuelle Aufklärung und historische Orientierung auszeichnet, zur Versachlichung der Diskurse über den Islam bei. Susannah Heschel zeichnet in acht Einzelportraits sowie einer thematischen Einleitung (S. 5-27) und einer kurzen Zusammenfassung (S. 94-110) das Bild von jüdischen Wissenschaftlern des 19. und der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts, die sich dem Islam und der Koranlektüre ebenso verpflichtet wussten wie dem Studium des Judentums. Von zentraler Bedeutung ist daher die Frage, der Susannah Heschel in ihrer Studie nachgeht, zu erkunden, »welchen Anteil […] der Islam bzw. die jüdische Vorstellung von ihm an der Herausbildung einer modern-jüdischen Gelehrsamkeit und Identität« hatte (S. 95).

description: We study the quantum and classical scattering of Hamiltonian systems whose chaotic saddle is described by binary or ternary horseshoes. We are interested in parameters of the system for which a stable island, associated with the inner fundamental periodic orbit of the system exists and is large, but chaos around this island is well developed. In this situation, in classical systems, decay from the interaction region is algebraic, while in quantum systems it is exponential due to tunneling. In both cases, the most surprising effect is a periodic response to an incoming wave packet. The period of this self-pulsing effect or scattering echoes coincides with the mean period, by which the scattering trajectories rotate around the stable orbit. This period of rotation is directly related to the development stage of the underlying horseshoe. Therefore the predicted echoes will provide experimental access to topological information. We numerically test these results in kicked one dimensional models and in open billiards.

description: Cross-nucleation between different crystal polymorphs is a particular, self-seed assisted type of heterogeneous nucleation, where a fast-growing polymorph nucleates at a pre-existing crystal surface of another polymorph. Here, we present a study on cross-nucleation between different crystalline phases of poly(butylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PBN), employing hotstage polarized-light optical microscopy and temperature-resolved wide-angle X-ray scattering as analysis tools. PBN forms α-crystals at relatively low temperature and β′-crystals at rather high temperature, with cross-nucleation experiments designed such to first obtain few α- or β′-seed crystals (mother phase) which then are transferred to higher or lower temperature, respectively, to monitor the continuation of the crystallization process and possible growth of the other polymorph. In case of cooling β′-crystals to lower temperature where typically α-crystals form in the non-seeded isotropic melt, β′-crystals nucleate growth of α-crystals, following many examples of cross-nucleation in the literature. In contrast, if low-temperature-generated α-crystals are heated to a temperature where β′-crystals form in a non-seeded melt, the cross-nucleation efficacy is reduced as, beside growth of cross-nucleated β′-crystals, also growth of the mother phase is observed. This unexpected result demonstrates the importance of the structure of the nucleating substrate and the interplay between kinetic and thermodynamic aspects of crystal growth.

description: A notion of quantum natural evolution strategies is introduced, which provides a geometric synthesis of a number of known quantum/classical algorithms for performing classical black-box optimization. Recent work of Gomes et al. [2019] on heuristic combinatorial optimization using neural quantum states is pedagogically reviewed in this context, emphasizing the connection with natural evolution strategies. The algorithmic framework is illustrated for approximate combinatorial optimization problems, and a systematic strategy is found for improving the approximation ratios. In particular it is found that natural evolution strategies can achieve approximation ratios competitive with widely used heuristic algorithms for Max-Cut, at the expense of increased computation time.

description: Series of experimental runs were carried out using a pilot scale spray drying unit to produce starch molecular inclusion complexes with fatty acids. Native normal maize and tapioca starch suspensions with added myristic or palmitic acid were employed at various concentrations and feed rates whereas the spray drier was operated at various drying air inlet temperatures. The products were examined using X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, Confocal laser scanning microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, Laser diffraction particle size analysis. Experimental data analysis of process parameters was carried out to determine the main variables which affect the performance of the spray drying process. The critical factors were found to be the material feed flow rate in relation to the temperature difference existing in the spray drying chamber between the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature of the drying air. The results revealed that all spray dried products had the same morphological characteristics regardless the type of starch or fatty acid employed and desirable functional properties e.g., low tapped density, uniformity in size, low crystallinity and hollow porous structure. It is concluded that, spray drying is an appropriate technique for the industrial production of starch molecular inclusion complexes in powder form.

It certainly demonstrates a fact that environment coupling terms are unavoidable for the revision of the Ozawa's inequality under the perspective of the quantum geomertainty relation. More importantly, the modified Ozawa's inequality can greatly improve the quantum experimental precision, in this way, we can test and verify the validity of the quantum geomertainty relation.

Horizontal symmetry in Higgs sector of GUT with U(1)_A symmetry

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: In a series of papers, we pointed out that an anomalous $U(1)_A$ gauge symmetry naturally solves various problems in grand unified theories (GUTs) and that a horizontal gauge symmetry, $SU(2)_H$ or $SU(3)_H$, not only realizes the unification of three generation quarks and leptons in fewer multiplets but also solves the supersymmetric flavor problem. In this paper, we examine the possibility that the Higgs sectors of the GUT symmetry and of the horizontal symmetry are unified, that is, there are some Higgs fields whose vacuum expectation values (VEVs) break both the GUT gauge symmetry and the horizontal symmetry at the same time. Although the scale of the VEVs become too large to suppress the flavor changing neutral current processes sufficiently, the unification is possible. In addition, for the $SU(3)_H$ models, the $SU(3)_H$ gauge anomaly is cancelled in the unified models without introducing additional fields in contrast with the previous models in which the Higgs sectors are not unified.

title: On the Irish Clachan settlement Pattern and the Authority of Order and Form
Creators: name: Dorrian, Mark Woodburne
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1995

description: The Irish clachan is a settlement form, a grouping of houses and related out-buildings, that has been associated with the 'Rundale' agricultural system. Study of it has proceeded largely within the discipline of Geography, and has been coordinated primarily by questions such as those of the antiquity and distribution of the type. The morphology of the built form has been commented on, but in a limited and highly circumscribed way; to date it has received little sustained attention. This is the focus of the present study - the spatial formation of the clusters, their 'architectural' quality, and specifically how that was and is interpreted and understood. Following an introductory critical review of recent academic treatment of the subject, a brief history is sketched of ways in which the clusters have been described. Close attention is paid to the categories which relate to their spatial qualities, categories which, it is recognized, passed over into the documents of the human sciences and which problematize the latters' project of understanding. It is thus argued, with reference to Heidegger's thinking, that scholarship on the clusters has conceptually mis-sited them. The hermeneutic position of the investigator has not been thematized. By situating the commentaries on native settlement within the development of the expansive, and far from uncommitted, discourse on Ireland the operation of the notion of disorder is examined. Here it is seen to be structurally related to a series of privileged and abject categories strategically organized around a master duality of civility and savagery. The suggestion that geometrically structured space, as the space of authority, was importantly linked with the privileged categories is investigated and the relationship between the clusters and the categories of the 'monstrous' and the 'grotesque' considered.

description: Self-compassion means being supportive and kind to oneself when experiencing failure or inadequacies. It is associated with adaptive intrapersonal and relational outcomes for individuals. This evidence was extended by using an Actor-Partner Interdependence framework. Other-sex couples (N = 209) completed measures of self-compassion, relationship-specific self-compassion, and relationship satisfaction. Both self-compassion measures were related to global relationship satisfaction and facets thereof (e.g., sexuality, engagement, trust) for actors. Relationship-specific self-compassion was also positively related to the partner's relationship satisfaction (particularly for men). It is suggested that researchers (a) consider the interdependence of the partners when analyzing self-compassion in relationships and test for partner effects and (b) use fine-grained and domain-specific measures to develop a more complete understanding of self-compassion's associations with criterion variables.

description: Interaktives Projekt Jewish Places online Jewish Places stellt ausführliche Informationen zu Orten jüdischen Lebens in Deutschland auf einer interaktiven Karte dar. Besucher_innen können aktuelle und historische jüdische Orte entdecken. Die auf der Website gebündelten Informationen umfassen Angaben zu den Gemeindeeinrichtungen (Synagogen, Bethäuser, Friedhöfe, Mikwaot u.A.). Zudem finden säkulare Einrichtungen wie Sportvereine, jüdische Salons oder Cafés Eingang in die Karte. Virtuell geführte Spaziergänge bieten einen Überblick über die jüdischen Orte in verschiedenen Städten. Ebenso kann man den Spuren historischer Persönlichkeiten folgen und nachvollziehen, um welche Orte ihre Biografien kreisten. Gleichzeitig bündelt und vernetzt Jewish Places zahlreiche Webangebote zu jüdischer Regionalgeschichte und verhilft diesen Internetprojekten so zu mehr Sichtbarkeit. • www.jewish-places.de Jerusalem: Neues Museum zum Leben Jesu Die Franziskaner haben in einem Neubau auf ihrem Gelände in der Altstadt Jerusalems an der Via Dolorosa ein neues Museum zum alltäglichen Leben der Zeit Jesu eröffnet. So wie andere Rabbiner, erklärte der Direktor des Museums, Eugenio Alliata, habe Jesu »tägliches Leben gelehrt, wie man das tägliche Leben meistern soll«. Seine Lehre »ist stark mit dem normalen Leben der Leute verbunden«. Deswegen sei es wichtig, dieses tägliche Leben den Besuchern näher zu bringen. Der offizielle Name des Museums lautet Das Haus des Herodes. Leben und Macht zur Zeit des Neuen Testaments. Der Franziskaner-Orden ist vom Vatikan für die Verwaltung des katholischen Besitzes und der heiligen Stätten beauftragt. Die Franziskaner gehören zu den frühesten Ausgräbern antiker Stätten im Heiligen Land. Sehr viele der gefundenen Objekte haben ihren Platz im neuen Museum gefunden. Zahlreiche Ausstellungsstücke werden erstmals einer breiten Öffentlichkeit präsentiert.

description: This paper explores the relationship be­tween food expenditures and consumption patterns and families' socioeconomic status in the Onited States. Three themes follow through the paper. One is that as income rises over time and across socioeconomic groups, a smaller percent of that income is spent of food. Simultaneously, a larger percent of the food dollar buys services and food preparation moves farther away from the home. Second, characteristics of people like age and ethnicity contribute to diversity in food con­sumption but labor force participation by women has led the trend in away-from-home-food preparation. New scientific information and technology have changed at­titudes about nutrition and food safety and their link­ages to health. Finally, the continuous introduction of affordable new foods into the diet and culture of families in all socioeconomic groups has been a quiet evolution. Trying to differentiate socioeconomic groups in the United States by their food and nutritional status is almost a nonstory except for fascinating intragroup diversities that change rapidly in the postmodern society.

description: Marine fishery plays an essential role in promoting the employment of labor force, ensuring food safety, promoting the construction of ecological civilization and safeguarding the maritime rights and interests. The development of marine fishery is of great significance. This paper analyzed the current situation and existing problems of marine fishery in China and came up with some pertinent recommendations and measures. The area of marine fishery with authentic right is increasing year by year, and pelagic fishery constantly grows and the industrial structure is becoming more and more reasonable. However, there are still problems such as serious pollution of marine environment, frequent occurrence of marine disasters, shrinking space of fishery development, which seriously affect healthy development of the marine fishery. In this situation, it came up with recommendations including strengthening monitoring of marine fishery resources and protection of marine environment, optimizing the industrial structure, and raising the scientific and technological level of marine fisheries, to protect the sustainable development of marine fishery. It is expected to provide references for the development of marine fishery in China.
Vom Antijudaismus zum Antisemitismus. Zwei Unterrichtseinheiten zur Thematisierung des Judentums im Religionsunterricht

description: Die Grundlage für den Religionsunterricht in der Sekundarstufe bildet folgender Satz, der aus dem Bildungsplan 2016 entnommen wurde: »Der Evangelische Religionsunterricht bringt den christlichen Glauben und seine Tradition ins Gespräch und unterstützt die Heranwachsenden dabei, den Glauben als Möglichkeit zu entdecken, die Wirklichkeit zu deuten und ihr Leben zu gestalten. « 2 Darüber hinaus gilt es den Blick zu weiten und einen sensiblen Umgang mit anderen Glaubensgemeinschaften einzuüben. Die Schüler_innen nehmen dadurch die Vielfalt gelebten Glaubens wahr, und »die Bereitschaft und die Fähigkeit, andere Auffassungen zu verstehen« wird gefördert. 3 Im Anschluss finden sich zwei Unterrichtsentwürfe, die sich den Themenfeldern Antijudaismus und Antisemitismus zuwenden. Beide Entwürfe wurden im Rahmen des Hospitationspraktikums des Studiums Religionspädagogik/Gemeindediakonie in einer 9. Klasse des Gymnasiums durchgeführt. Sie sollten den Schüler_innen einen historischen Verlauf der Judenfeindschaft von der Antike (zum Beispiel des Antijudaismus) bis zu gegenwärtigen Formen des Antisemitismus ermöglichen. Die Schüler_innen wurden durch die Unterrichtseinheiten befähigt, sich eine eigene Meinung über das geschichtliche Verhältnis von Juden und Christen zu bilden. Sie konnten lernen, gegenwärtige Positionen zum Antisemitismus kritisch zu hinterfragen, wenn möglich eine eigene Position dazu zu entwickeln und schließlich zu vertreten. Erster Unterrichtsentwurf Unterrichtsthema »Wer ist schuld am Tode Jesu? – Dem Antijudaismus auf der Spur…« In Anlehnung an den Bildungsplan 2016 werden in der folgenden Unterrichtsstunde die sozialkommunikative, kognitive und methodische Er - schließungsdimension bedient. Die Schüler_innen4 können die biblische wie auch die historische Verantwortung für die Kreuzigung Jesu deuten. Damit wird einerseits die theologische, andererseits die inhaltliche Kompetenz der SuS geschult. In der Kategorie der Prozesskompetenzen können die SuS den Antijudaismus im Neuen Testament wahrnehmen und belegen, dass nicht die Juden schuld am Tode Jesu sind. Für die Unterrichtseinheit ist folgendes Stundenziel vorgesehen: Die Sus können die Gründe für den Antijudaismus anhand einer Gruppenarbeit nennen. Durch die Auseinandersetzung mit den historischen wie biblischen Zusammenhängen können sie am Ende eine begründete Gegenrede entweder formulieren oder darstellen.

description: Sommer 2018: Der Sommer, der nicht enden will – wie wird er in die Geschichte eingehen? Sommer 2018: ein Sommer der Extreme – kaum Niederschlag, Hitzerekorde, letzter Vorbote des Klimawandels? Klimawandel im meteorologischen Sinn und im übertragenen Sinn. Sommer 2018: Auf den Straßen von Chemnitz und anderswo werden Menschen gejagt. Gleichzeitig kommt es zu zahlreichen antisemitischen Vorfällen an Schulen und in der gesellschaftlichen Öffentlichkeit. Sommer 2018: Es naht das 80-jährige Gedenken an die Reichspogromnacht im November. Der pädagogische Leiter des Museums zur Geschichte von Juden und Christen in Laupheim, Dr. Michael Koch, überlegt, wie man dieses Jubiläum begehen kann. Es entsteht der Gedanke, dass jede Schule ein Modell der großen Laupheimer Synagoge erstellt. Der Kunstlehrer des Carl-Laemmle-Gymnasiums, Tobias Wedler, ein wahrer Künstler, hat noch kein rundum gutes Gefühl dabei. So gut die Ideen der verschiedenen Schul-Synagogen auch sein mögen, ihm fehlt noch ein Baustein, damit es für ihn ein rundes, gelungenes Projekt sein kann. Sommer 2018: Der Sommer ist so trocken, dass sich die verborgenen, unsichtbaren Fundamente der Synagoge im trockenen Rasen abzeichnen – von unten meldet sich die Synagoge wieder. Dieses Phänomen bringt Tobias Wedler auf den Gedanken, das 80 Jahre lang unsichtbare Fundament des Synagogenturmes wieder sichtbar werden zu lassen. Er macht sich daran, ein Modell für Lehmziegel zu konstruieren mit dem Maß des Württembergischen Ziegels, aus dem die Synagoge 1871 erbaut wurde. Gesagt, getan. Von da an ergibt eines das andere: Wie komme ich an den Lehm? Eine Anfrage beim regionalen Ziegelsteinhersteller, der in seinen Ziegelsteinen auch Lehmanteile verarbeitet, stößt auf offene Ohren: Der Lehm ist versetzt mit Zeitungspapierresten und Textilfasern, die zum einen zur Armierung dienen, zum anderen beim Brennvorgang bei der industriellen Herstellung der Ziegel Luftbläschen bewirken, die die Dämmeigenschaften verbessern. Dieser Lehm wird aus der industriellen Fördermaschine heraus geholt. Ein örtliches Bauunternehmen bietet an, kostenlos den Transport des Lehms an die Schule zu organisieren (welch schöner Zufall: Dieses Unternehmen hat auch die neue Ulmer Synagoge wieder aufgebaut.). Die Idee entsteht, dass jede Schülerin und jeder Schüler seinen eigenen Laupheimer Ziegel entweder während des Kunstunterrichts, in einer Pause oder im Laufe eines Schultages herstellt: Der Lehm wird in die Hand genommen, zerbröselt, geknetet und mit einem Stößel verdichtet.

description: With the non-universal validity of the QPB that has been replaced by the complete QCPB theory. In order to be self-consistent with QCPB theory, it is necessary to extend the Hermitian operator to the non-Hermitian operator generally. In such universal case, the G-dynamics contained in the QCHS theory has played a critical role in the whole QCPB theory. It legitimately proves the Hilbert-P\'{o}lya conjecture and then the Riemann hypothesis as a byproduct becomes a direct inference, the G-dynamics as a bridge successfully connects quantum mechanics with general relativity which directly leads to the quantum gravity.
