title: Oman. Quality Culture in Higher Education A Good-Practice Example
Creators: name: Huson, Nicola
Publisher: name: Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Darmstadt
Year: 2023

description: Quality culture in higher education goes beyond the establishment of Quality Assurance processes and systems. The concept of quality culture in Higher Educational Institutions is being discussed widely in the professional literature as to its defining characteristics and forms of implementation. A new era in quality management is developing which “is moving away from a mechanistic to a holistic and cultural view of quality in education” (Ehlers 2009: 343). Following this line of thought the case presented here reflects on the evolution of a teaching initiative launched at the German University of Technology in Oman and provides a good-practice example for an higher education institutional enhancement of quality culture with consideration of its environmental setting, institutional and initiative factors and its verification in the framework of a theoretical concept of quality culture.
Dynamics of Bound State Populations for Channeled Electrons/Positrons

Publisher: name: INFN Open Access Repository
Year: 2009

description: When electrons or positrons are planar channeled through a crystal, the spectrum of bound energy states forms and one can observe so-called channeling radiation. The intensity of channeling radiation depends on populations of bound energy levels. These populations change during projectiles motion through a crystal that, in turn, influences the CR intensity. In this manuscript we present theoretical model and computer codes to investigate the bound energy spectra of planar-channeled electrons and positrons and to obtain the initial populations of bound states. Solving the kinetic equations and using some approximations we explore the dynamics of bound state populations. In the future taking into account the dechanneling processes more realistic picture of evolution of bound state populations will be giving.

description: The material that formed the present-day Solar System originated in feeding zones in the inner Solar Nebula located at distances within ~20 AU from the Sun, known as the planet-forming zone. Meteoritic and cometary material contain abundant evidence for the presence of a rich and active chemistry in the planet-forming zone during the gas-rich phase of Solar System formation. It is a natural conjecture that analogs can be found amoung the zoo of protoplanetary disks around nearby young stars. The study of the chemistry and dynamics of planet formation requires: 1) tracers of dense gas at 100-1000 K and 2) imaging capabilities of such tracers with 5-100 (0.5-20 AU) milli-arcsec resolution, corresponding to the planet-forming zone at the distance of the closest star-forming regions. Recognizing that the rich infrared (2-200 micron) molecular spectrum recently discovered to be common in protoplanetary disks represents such a tracer, we present a new general raytracing code, RADLite, that is optimized for producing infrared line spectra and images from axisymmetric structures. RADLite can consistently deal with a wide range of velocity gradients, such as those typical for the inner regions of protoplanetary disks. The code is intended as a backend for chemical and excitation codes, and can rapidly produce spectra of thousands of lines for grids of models for comparison with observations. Such radiative transfer tools will be crucial for constraining both the structure and chemistry of planet-forming regions, including data from current infrared imaging spectrometers and extending to the Atacama Large Millimeter Array and the next generation of Extremely Large Telescopes, the James Webb Space Telescope and beyond.

description: Tim Buchen's prize-crowned work casts bright light on a massive wave of anti-Jewish violence inflicted in summer 1898 on West Galician rural and shtetl Jewry by Polish villagers. The broad European literature, focused on the contemporaneous Dreyfus Affair, has taken little notice of this first widespread storm of anti-Jewish violence to engulf the Polish lands since the Ukrainian peasant revolts of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Preceded during the 1897 Reichsrat elections by lesser but myriad anti-Jewish tumults, the rioters' aims were mainly plunder and property-destruction, especially of Jewish-operated taverns and attached dwellings, not maiming and murder. Comprehensive statistics are lacking. By Buchen's count, some four hundred villages and small towns witnessed violence; thousands were arrested, of whom 962 had been pronounced guilty by February 1899 and sentenced, on average, to one month jail terms (pp. 48, 183). During the imposition of martial law to quell the tumults Austrian soldiers killed twelve rioters. Marcin Soboń's archival data from eight of the eleven judicial districts prosecuting rioters identify 3816 defendants, among whom 2328 were convicted and sentenced to jail-terms of up to six months.

description: We study the stability of solid- and supersolid (SS) phases of a three-dimensional spin- and a hardcore-Bose-Hubbard models on a body-centered cubic lattice. To see the quantum effects on the stability of the SS phase, we model the vacancies (interstitials) introduced in the solid, which are believed responsible for the appearance of the SS phase, by spinwave bosons and adopt the interaction between the condensed bosons as a criterion. A repulsive nature of the low-energy effective interaction is the necessary condition for a second-order solid-SS transition and, when this condition is met, normally the SS phase is expected. In calculating the effective interaction, we use expansions from the semiclassical- (i.e. large-S) and the Ising limit combined with the ladder approximation. The impact of quantum fluctuations crucially depends on the energy of the solid phase and that of the superfluid phase at half filling. As an application to 4He, we study the parameter region in the vicinity of the fitting parameter set given by Liu and Fisher. For this parameters set, quantum fluctuations at the second order in 1/S destabilize the solid phase, which is supposed to be stable within the mean field theory.

title: Practicum Students' Beliefs About Developmentally Appropriate Practice for Infants and Toddlers
Creators: name: Olsen, Kaelin
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2004

description: This study examined practicum students ' beliefs and experiences about developmentally appropriate practice (DAP) prior to a practicum experience and following it. Another goal was to examine differences between the practicum students' majors and their pre- and posttest DAP beliefs and experiences scores. Finally, this investigation sought to determine the differences between practicum students' DAP beliefs and experiences and the amount of time they spent in a practicum setting.
A total of 95 students completing a practicum in the Adele and Dale Young Child Development Laboratory in the infant (Group I) or the 2-year-old classroom (Group 2) participated in the study. The students completed the Teacher Beliefs and Practices Survey: Infants and Toddlers, as well as the Teacher Beliefs and Practices Survey: Infants if they were in Group I, or the Teacher Beliefs and Practices Survey:
Toddlers, if they worked with Group 2. The questionnaire consisted of two sections. The items on the first part were designed to assess the practicum students' beliefs about DAP. The second part of the questionnaire measured practicum students' experiences and activities in the infant or toddler classroom.
Findings from the infants and toddlers measure indicate that the practicum students did show a statistically significant increase from pretest to posttest in their DAP beliefs, and a statistically significant decrease in DAP experiences. This might suggest that the students were able to understand the theories and philosophies of DAP; however, interpreting the guidelines of DAP into classroom practice in the short time associated with the practicum was a difficult task.
Results also showed a statistically significant difference between practicum students of different majors and their DAP beliefs and experiences prior to the practicum experience as compared to after. Practicum students with majors in family, consumer, and human development with an emphasis in human development showed the greatest increases in their DAP beliefs over time. Students majoring the early childhood education and related majors showed a statistically significant increase in their DAP experiences between pre- and posttest.
Finally, analyses to determine the relationship between practicum students' DAP beliefs and experiences and the amount of time they spent in a practicum setting showed that Group I (infants) had a statistically significant increase in DAP belief scores, even though they spent less time in the practicum setting. Group II (toddlers), who spent a longer time in the practicum selling, had a statistically significant increase in DAP experience scores.
Implications of these findings for teacher educators and students are presented. Recommendations for future research are also included.

title: Autonomes und interkulturelles Lernen im Fremdsprachenunterricht – unvereinbar oder untrennbar?
Creators: name: Boeckmann, Klaus-Börge
Publisher: name: Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Darmstadt
Year: 2023

description: In der in den letzten beiden Jahrzehnten erheblich intensivierten Diskussion zur Lernendenautonomie ist autonomes Lernen im interkulturellen Bereich eher ein Randthema. Dieser Beitrag stellt die Frage der Vereinbarkeit von interkulturellem und autonomem Lernen und präsentiert zunächst zwei Zugänge, die zu gegensätzlichen Ergebnissen kommen. Die These von der Vereinbarkeit, ja Untrennbarkeit, der beiden Lernbereiche scheint jedoch überzeugender und weiter verbreitet. Angesichts der Breite der Autonomiediskussion wird in der Folge der Fokus auf Lernendenzentrierung als wichtiges Element von Autonomie gelegt und untersucht, welche Grundlagen es für eine lerndendenzentrierte Unterrichtskonzeption gibt und welche Vorteile sie hat. Bei den Überlegungen zur Anwendung lernendenzentrierter Konzepte im Bereich der interkulturellen Kompetenz wird der Schwerpunkt auf den Kompetenzbereich der Einstellungen gelegt und an einigen Beispielen illustriert, wie autonomes und interkulturelles Lernen in projektförmigen Lernaufgaben verschränkt werden können.

description: Vera Trappmann stawia sobie za zadanie krytyczną analizę przemian gospodarczych i społecznych w Polsce w ciągu ostatniego ćwierćwiecza. Skupia się przy tym na jednym tylko, lecz ważnym przypadku: hutnictwie, a dokładnie na losach zakładów w Nowej Hucie. Autorka „Fallen Heroes" stara się odpowiedzieć na dwa blisko związane ze sobą pytania: „co wpłynęło na przebieg restrukturyzacji hutnictwa w Polsce?" oraz „jakie konsekwencje dla samych robotników miały te przemiany?" (s. 7). Dodatkowe, ogólniejsze cele książki Trappmann są również dwa: sproblematyzować przebieg transformacji ustrojowej jako sukcesu całego społeczeństwa oraz równie krytycznie ocenić wpływ integracji z Unią Europejską (UE) na stan polskiej gospodarki. O ile ten pierwszy temat coraz częściej pojawia się w publicznych dyskusjach (wraz z książkami Jane Hardy, Naomi Klein, Tadeusza Kowalika czy Rafała Wosia), to UE przedstawiana jest zwykle w jednoznacznie pozytywnym świetle. Trappmann pokazuje, że UE nie jest jednolitym aktorem, lecz raczej wypadkową sił: Komisji, państw piętnastki („starej UE"), korporacji, banków, związków zawodowych i tak dalej. Co istotne, pokazuje również, że rozszerzenie Unii o kraje Europy Środko-Wschodniej miało dla nich wymiar dyscyplinujący oraz podporządkowujący, co widać nawet w losach poszczególnych hutników.
DI Her as a test of internal stellar structure and General Relativity: New apsidal motion rate and evolutionary models

description: For the past three decades, and until recently, there has been a serious discrepancy between the observed and theoretical values of the apsidal motion rate dw/dt of the eccentric eclipsing binary DI Her, which has even been interpreted occasionally as a possible failure of General Relativity (GR). Recent observations of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect have shown convincingly that the reason for the anomaly is that the rotational axes of the stars and the orbital axis are misaligned, which changes the predicted rate of precession significantly. Although as a result of those measurements the disagreement is now drastically smaller, it remains formally at the level of 50%, possibly due to errors in the measured apsidal motion rate, outdated stellar models, or inaccuracies in the stellar parameters. Here we address each of these issues in order to improve the agreement further. New times of minimum have been collected in order to redetermine the apsidal motion rate. We have computed new stellar evolution models with updated physical inputs, and derived improved apsidal motion constants for the components. We have performed Monte Carlo simulations to infer the theoretical distribution of dw/dt, including the contributions from GR as well as tidal and rotational distortions. All observational errors have been accounted for. Our simulations yield a retrograde apsidal motion rate due to the rotationally-induced oblateness of -0.00056 deg/cycle (mode of the distribution), a GR contribution of +0.00068 deg/cycle, and a tidal contribution of +0.00034 deg/cycle, leading to a total predicted rate of +0.00046 deg/cycle. This is in excellent agreement with the newly measured value of +0.00042 deg/cycle. The formal difference is now reduced to 10%, a small fraction of the observational uncertainties. (abridged)

description: The mechanism of emplacement of ultramafic intrusions has been a controversial subject for many years. This thesis summarizes evidence favoring the intrusion of ultramafic rocks as magmas. Experiments were conducted to study the effect on the melting behavior or ultramafic rocks of carbon dioxide, sodium, sulphur and water at temperatures up to 925°C. and pressures up to 2125 atmospheres. No melts were produced but it is felt that the evidence presented justifies further work on the problem.

description: Aktuelle Diskussionen zum studienbegleitenden Deutschunterricht verdeutlichen die Notwendigkeit danach, sich bei curricularen Überlegungen sowohl an institutionellen Rahmenbedingungen als auch an spezifischen Bedürfnissen der Studierenden zu orientieren. Da Lehrwerke den damit einhergehenden Anforderungen nach Offenheit und Adaptierbarkeit nicht gerecht werden können, sind mittelfristig alternative Konzepte gefragt, die es ermöglichen, im Zuge curricularer Überlegungen die notwendige Kohärenz zwischen einzelnen Unterrichtseinheiten herzustellen und dennoch eine flexible Anpassung an konkrete Lernkontexte zu erlauben. Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt ein solches Konzept vor. Ausgehend von der Arbeit am Tatort werden drei Lernbereiche vorgestellt, die neben der Arbeit am Film auch die Arbeit an angrenzenden Themen und Texten sowie darauf aufbauend die Entwicklung studienbegleitender kommunikativer Handlungskompetenz vorsehen.
Beyond Sexual Politics and Sexual Communities: Unlikely Spaces for Queer Identity in the Postwar United States
Creators: name: Ferrara, David G.
Publisher: name: Essays in History
Year: 2022

description: This article evaluates the recent works of historians Lauren Jae Gutterman and David K. Johnson. The article summarizes the arguments of the two works, evaluates their historiographical significance, and suggests their possible impact on future scholarship. Diverging from most LGBTQ histories of the period, Gutterman and Johnson study the postwar period outside of organizational politics or subcultural communities. The two monographs upend assumptions about the homophile era by emphasizing the construction of queer identities outside of traditional LGBTQ networks. Gutterman's study of lesbian desire within marriage and Johnson's work on physique magazines take a national scope in a field otherwise dominated by local community studies. Most importantly, the scholarship highlights the role of ostensibly heterosexual social institutions in the development of queer identity networks and politics in the postwar U.S.

title: The physics of defect chemistry and the chemistry of defect physics
Creators: name: Klein, Andreas
name: Sudarikov, Denis
Publisher: name: The Royal Society of Chemistry
Year: 2025

description: Defect chemistry is the classical approach to evaluate point-defect concentrations in solids depending on the chemical activity of the (n−1) of n constituents by evaluating the mass action laws of a number of defect reactions conserving species, lattice sites, and charge. In an alternative approach, formation energies of individual defects can be calculated to determine the dependence on the Fermi level and on the chemical potentials of the reservoirs. This contribution provides the quantitative relationship between the two approaches, offering the opportunity to compare calculated defect formation energies with experimentally determined quantities. As an example, the application of the two approaches to the comparison of electronic and ionic compensation of doping and the influence of the band edge energies on it is given. This example demonstrates that the Gibbs energy of reduction and oxidation are essentially aligning the energy axis of ionic defects relative to that of electronic defects. In conjunction with the dependence of the valence band maximum and conduction band minimum energies on material composition, this offers the opportunity to tune the preference for electronic, ionic or mixed compensation of doping by two independent quantities.
Friendly Enemies: Soldier Fraternization Throughout the American Civil War. By Lauren K. Thompson. (Lincoln, NB: University of Nebraska Press, 2020) Pp. 240. Hardcover, $55.
Creators: name: Valimont, Brian
Publisher: name: Essays in History
Year: 2022

description: Thompson’s book Friendly Enemies examines the occurrence of fraternization between Union and Confederate soldiers over the course of the American Civil War. She provides evidence from soldier’s letters and diaries on the numerous instances when soldiers from opposing armies crossed the picket lines and shared coffee, meals and other comfort items like tobacco, alcohol and newspapers. Soldiers did so knowingly risking arrest. They did it because, Thompson argues, it was beneficial and enjoyable to do so. It brought them moments of escape, peace and the ability to assert their individual will and freedom in the otherwise controlled subordination of military regime. Thompson argues that it was a means of providing mental escape from the hardships of war by providing an opportunity to commiserate about their hardships. Thompson found that the majority of fraternizers were ideologically committed to the war’s conclusion, that they were not noncommittal resisters. Thompson also observes that fraternization exclusively took place between white soldiers. Confederate soldier’s with beliefs in white supremacy did not fraternize with black Union soldiers.

description: Dealing with large-scale application of semiconductor detectors, one of the keystones is to ensure the robustness and long-term electrical stability. A phenomenon that can compromise the performance of a system based on these detectors is the dependence of the punch-through effect on the environmental conditions. In this paper we investigated the influence of humidity on the punch-through in microstrip and drift silicon detectors. Simulations and laboratory measurements on different prototypes were performed. Data analysis allowed to determine a special solution for the design of the cathode metallisation mask that reduces in a substantial way the evolution of the punch-through voltage due to humidity influence.

description: Deutschland ist nach wie vor das beliebteste Zielland finnischer Studierender, und das wichtigste Motiv für die Wahl eines deutschsprachigen Gastlandes ist, Deutsch zu lernen. In diesem Beitrag soll das Konzept eines Blended-Learning-Kurses zur Vorbereitung auf ein Austauschstudium in einem deutschsprachigen Land vorgestellt werden. Der Kurs war handlungs- und textsortenorientiert auf den Erwerb mündlicher studienbezogener Fertigkeiten ausgerichtet. Für das E-Learning wurde das deutsche EUROMOBIL-Programm (Euromobil o.J.) verwendet. In den Präsenzphasen hielten die Studierenden mündliche Referate, die im Kurs diskutiert und von den Lehrenden und Vortragenden selbst evaluiert wurden. Im empirischen Teil des Beitrags soll anhand einer Fallstudie untersucht werden, mit welchen Erwartungen die Studierenden den Kurs belegten und wie sie ihn abschließend beurteilten. Schlussfolgerungen zur Planung und Durchführung studienvorbereitender Kurse schließen den Beitrag ab.

description: Hinter dem nicht gerade einsichtigen Titel‚Wissen und nach-industrielle Produktion' verbirgt sich ein neues Werk zur niederschlesischen Geschichte, das sich dem Problemkomplex Vertreibung – staatliche Neuordnung – Aneignung zuweisen lässt. Yaman Kouli wählt für die Geschichte Niederschlesiens nach dem 2. Weltkrieg aber einen wirtschaftshistorischen Zugang mit einem makroökonomischen Interesse. [1] Dieses Forschungsdesign ist gut gewählt, weil bisher nur eine kleine Zahl wirtschaftshistorischer Arbeiten zu diesem Thema vorliegen. [2] Die deutschsprachige Forschungslandschaft ist maßgeblich von einer Aneignungsgeschichte [3] geprägt, und in der polnischsprachigen herrscht weiterhin ein eher klassisch politikgeschichtlicher Ansatz vor. [4] Hingegen interessiert man sich in der englischsprachigen Forschung zumeist für den Zusammenhang der Vertreibung und dem Aufbau einer homogenen Staatsbevölkerung. [5] Vor diesem Hintergrund verspricht Koulis Studie ein neues Licht auf das Problem zu werfen.

description: Starting from a covariant formalism of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect for the thermal and non-thermal distributions, we derive the frequency redistribution function identical to Wright's method assuming the smallness of the photon energy (in the Thomson limit). We also derive the redistribution function in the covariant formalism in the Thomson limit. We show that two redistribution functions are mathematically equivalent in the Thomson limit which is fully valid for the cosmic microwave background photon energies. We will also extend the formalism to the kinematical Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect. With the present formalism we will clarify the situation for the discrepancy existed in the higher order terms of the kinematical Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect.

description: This secondary analysis employed data from portions of the Spanish and English versions of the RELATionship Evaluation inventory, a self-report questionnaire (RELATE) The present research analyzed conflict resolution types, communication styles, and relationship satisfaction and stability among Latino men and women compared to Caucasian men and women. Multiple linear regression analysis was used for analyzing the data.
Communication styles and conflict resolution types were more different than similar among Latino males and females in predicting relationship satisfaction and relationship stability; however, they were more similar than different among Caucasian males and females. The communication style of love was the only statistically significant predictor of relationship satisfaction that was common across gender and ethnicity in this study. Implications for the practice of marriage and family therapy and for research are discussed.

description: Christine Czinglar greift in ihrer Dissertation die seit Jahrzehnten vielseitig diskutierte Frage (vgl. Pagonis 2009a) nach der Bedeutung des Alters für den Verlauf und den Erfolg von Fremdsprachenlernen bzw. Zweitspracherwerb (vgl. Grotjahn, Schlak & Berndt 2010) auf und befasst sich mit dem Erwerb der Verbstellung im Deutschen. Sie verweist auf die Alltagsvermutung, die „je jünger desto besser“ behauptet (6), um Alterseffekte, die sich auch in verschiedenen Bereichen der Grammatik unterscheiden (13), zu untersuchen. Sie geht davon aus, dass sich in Longitudinalstudien der Einfluss des Alters eher beobachten lässt als in den meist vorhandenen Querschnittsstudien, die sich auf einzelne Aspekte des Erwerbsverlaufes bzw. einen festgelegten Endzustand beziehen (7). Dazu untersucht sie die über eine Spanne von 18 Monaten aufgezeichneten spontansprachlichen Daten von zwei Mädchen russischer Herkunftssprache aus dem Korpus des DFG-Projekts „Der Altersfaktor im Erwerb des Deutschen als Zweitsprache (DaZ-AF)“ unter der Leitung von Ursula Stephany (Universität Köln).

description: We propose a five-dimensional framework for modeling the background geometry associated to ordinary Yang-Mills (YM) as well as to nonsupersymmetric gauge theories possessing an infrared fixed point with fermions in various representations of the underlying gauge group. The model is based on the improved holographic approach, on the string theory side, and on the conjectured all-orders beta function for the gauge theory one. We first analyze the YM gauge theory. We then investigate the effects of adding flavors and show that, in the holographic description of the conformal window, the geometry becomes AdS when approaching the ultraviolet and the infrared regimes. As the number of flavors increases within the conformal window we observe that the geometry becomes more and more of AdS type over the entire energy range.

description: Tomasz Zarycki ist Direktor des Instituts für Sozialwissenschaftlichen Studien an der Universität Warschau. Seine Publikationstätigkeit fokussiert sich u.a. auf Wissenschaftssoziologie, politische Geografie und Geopolitik. Seinem neusten Buch Ideologies of Eastness in Central and Eastern Europe kommt zugute, dass er in Westeuropa (in den Niederlanden, USA, England, Schweden) und auch in Russland (an der MGIMO) geforscht hat. So geht Zarycki von einer vielschichtigen, in sich widersprüchlichen Situation Zentral- und Osteuropas aus, und er geht multiperspektivisch heran. Diese Studie ist mutig. Das betreffende Gebiet sei ein Opfer der Orientalisierung – im Sinne Edward Saids – von außen, insbesondere seitens Westeuropas. Es produziere aber auch selbst aktiv orientalisierende Diskurse, vor allem gegenüber der Ukraine und Russland. Dadurch sei Polen sowohl in der Opfer- als auch in der Täterrolle zu sehen. Leidenswettbewerbe, kultureller Reduktionismus und kompensatorisches Verhalten treten dabei in all ihrer Paradoxie bis Absurdität hervor. Die Selbstdefinition mittels Verneinung des eigenen ,Ostseins' und die grundsätzliche Ablehnung ,des Ostens' nebenan können nach dieser Lektüre nicht anders als fantasmatische, aber politisch sehr wirksame Denkkonstrukte erscheinen.

description: In order to enhance the output of highly charged ions from an electron cyclotron resonance ion source (ECRIS), several techniques like wall coating, biased disk, electron gun have been proposed and are meanwhile employed as standard tools at most of the existing installations. Although the detailed mechanisms are not clear, it has become evident that the additional injection of electrons into the plasma chamber of an ECRIS considerably improves its performances. Depending on the special conditions of the source these additional electrons can either compensate for losses of plasma electrons or even may change global plasma parameters (e.g. plasma potential) and hence positively influence the extraction at high rates of highly charged ions. The first experiments on biased disk were carried out at CEA, Grenoble and KVI, Groningen in 1990-91 and since then, this method is used by almost any ECRIS in the world. Wall coating is not so widely used but it has been proved to be effective not only for ECRIS but also for microwave discharge ion source (MDIS). Other methods to provide electrons to the plasma will be described in the following. In particular, at the Institute of Physics and Nuclear Engineering (IFIN-HH), Bucharest, special metal-dielectric (MD) structures of Al-Al2O3 have been developed. They are characterized by their very high secondary electron emission coefficients and therefore they seem to be ideal to be used in an ECRIS. Preliminary tests at IK in Frankfurt and at KVI have given interesting results. In the following an analysis of the possibilities opened by this method and other methods involving electron donors in ECRIS and MDIS field is carried out.

description: In The Howling Storm, Kenneth Noe seeks to assert the important role that climate and weather played as a variable in the outcomes of American Civil War campaigns. Yet, The Howling Storm is not an environmental history that would place climate and weather at the forefront of explanation. This book does not examine the environmental impacts of the Civil War. Rather, it elucidates environmental conditions as a critically important variable in how the various military encounters unfolded, climaxed, terminated and their aftermath. Noe does not seek to upend the interpretations of other historians, nor does he seek to proffer revelatory explanations about the performances of particular military units or commanders. Noe generally accepts prior historian’s interpretations of various Civil War engagements. Instead, he seeks to emphasize and illuminate how climate and weather prove to be as important a variable as political pressure, strategy and tactics, command decisions, and situational circumstances.

description: In a simple extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model, out-of-equilibrium decays of TeV scale exotic vector-like squarks may generate the baryon asymmetry of the universe. Baryon number and CP violation are present in the superpotential, so this mechanism does not rely on CP violation in supersymmetry breaking parameters. We discuss phenomenological constraints on the model as well as potential signals for the Large Hadron Collider and electronic dipole moment experiments. A variation on the TeV scale model allows the exotic squarks to be the messengers of gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking.
