Time Operator, Real Tunneling Time in Strong Field Interaction and the Attoclock
(2020-04-07)
Attosecond science, beyond its importance from application point of view, is of a fundamental interest in physics. The measurement of tunneling time in attosecond experiments offers a fruitful opportunity to understand the role of time in quantum mechanics. In the present work, we show that our real T-time relation derived in earlier works can be derived from an observable or a time operator, which obeys an ordinary commutation relation. Moreover, we show that our real T-time can also be constructed, inter alia, from ...

Effects and Prerequisites of Self-Generation in Inquiry-Based Learning
(2020-10-10)
The goal of this study is to investigate the effect of self-generation in inquiry-based learning and to identify the role of feedback. While open-ended inquiry-based learning with a high degree of self-generation requirements has long been considered optimal for facilitating effective learning, its long-run effects have been critically challenged. This study employed a 3 (learning condition) × 2 (retention interval) mixed factorial design (N = 98). An inquiry activity involving the self-generation of content knowledge ...

Improving Vertical Wind Speed Extrapolation Using Short-Term Lidar Measurements
(2020-03-29)
This study investigates how short-term lidar measurements can be used in combination with a mast measurement to improve vertical extrapolation of wind speed. Several methods are developed and analyzed for their performance in estimating the mean wind speed, the wind speed distribution, and the energy yield of an idealized wind turbine at the target height of the extrapolation. These methods range from directly using the wind shear of the short-term measurement to a classification approach based on commonly available ...

Die Wahlmüdigkeit der Studierenden
(2020-09-05)
Die Wahlbeteiligung für die studentische Selbstverwaltung liegt meist knapp über zehn Prozent. Dies wird u. a. mit der großen Belastung durch das Studium erklärt und mit der Aussichts-losigkeit, gegen die Stimmen der Professorinnen und Professoren überhaupt etwas ausrichten zu können.
Aber sind Millionenbeträge für den Allgemeinen Studierenden-ausschuss (AStA) gerechtfertigt, wenn eine winzige Minderheit der Studierenden eine noch winzigere Zahl von politischen Aktivisten wählt, von denen dann gut die Hälfte, mehr ...

Morphologically similar but not closely related: the long-sporedspecies of Subulicystidium (Trechisporales, Basidiomycota)
(2020-06-06)
Species boundaries and geographic distribution of corticioid fungi (resupinate Basidiomycota) are often poorly known. Ourrecent study onSubulicystidiumshowed that species diversity in this genus is at least twice as high as previously recognized. Thisre-estimation of the species diversity was based on a study of only a part of the genus. The present study sheds light on molecularand morphological diversity of three more species. We generated 27 ITS and 24 28S nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences from 49specimens labelled ...

Examining the relevance of cultural ecosystem services in forest management in Europe
(2020)
The ecosystem services framework has become one of the most important paradigms in forest planning and management as a way to link the multiple provisioning, regulating, and cultural services derived from ecosystems and their benefits to human well-being. Recently, there have been multiple efforts in emphasizing the importance of cultural ecosystem services (CES). However, the consideration of CES in management models remains a challenge. In the current context of increased demand for the joint supply of multiple ...

Impact of Pus1 Pseudouridine Synthase on Specific Decoding Events in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(2020-05-07)
Pus1-dependent pseudouridylation occurs in many tRNAs and at multiple positions, yet the functional impact of this modification is incompletely understood. We analyzed the consequences of PUS1 deletion on the essential decoding of CAG (Gln) codons by tRNAGlnCUG in yeast. Synthetic lethality was observed upon combining the modification defect with destabilized variants of tRNAGlnCUG, pointing to a severe CAG-decoding defect of the hypomodified tRNA. In addition, we demonstrated that misreading of UAG stop codons by a ...

Social Sustainability Empowering the Economic Sustainability in the Global Apparel Supply Chain
(2020-03-25)
Scholarly discussion on the amalgamation of sustainability and supply chain management has been growing in the last decade. However, an integrated social and economic sustainability performance measurement in supply chains is an emerging avenue in the Sustainable Supply Chain Management discourse. Hence, the purpose of this study is to understand how socially sustainable practices affect economic sustainability performances in supply chains. A survey questionnaire and a conceptual framework were developed to explore ...

On Multivariate Bernstein Polynomials
(2020-08-21)
In this paper, we first revisit and bring together as a sort of survey, properties of Bernstein polynomials of one variable. Secondly, we extend the results from one variable to several ones, namely—uniform convergence, uniform convergence of the derivatives, order of convergence, monotonicity, fixed sign for the p-th derivative, and deduction of the upper and lower bounds of Bernstein polynomials from those of the corresponding functions.

Comparison between Hyperspectral Imaging and Chemical Analysis of Polyphenol Oxidase Activity on Fresh-Cut Apple Slices
(2020-06-29)
The assessment of the quality of fresh-cut apple slices is important for processing, storage, market value, and consumption. Determination of polyphenol oxidase activity (PPO) in apples is critical for controlling the quality of the final product (i.e., dried apples and juices). Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a nondestructive, noncontact, and rapid food quality assessment technique. It has the potential to detect physical and chemical quality attributes of foods such as PPO of apple. The aim of this study was to ...
