    Alexander Newski. Russlands unsterblicher Held

    No full text
    Im Jahr 2008 wählte das russische Fernsehpublikum Alexander Newski zur wichtigsten Figur der Geschichte Russlands. Wer war dieser sagenumwobene Held von der Newa, der als Fürst von Nowgorod im 13. Jahrhundert mehrere legendäre Schlachten gewann? Wie verlief seine Karriere an die Spitze des russischen Heldenpantheons? Wie lässt sich die Popularität des Fürsten im heutigen Russland erklären? Frithjof Benjamin Schenk sucht in seinem Beitrag nach Antworten auf diese Fragen

    Der Beitrag von Thorsten Hens und Klaus Reiner Schenk-Hoppé liefert eine quantitative Analyse der evolutionären Dynamik von Finanzmärkten. Die evolutionäre Finanzmarkttheorie beruht auf einer konsequenten Weiterentwicklung des in letzter Zeit entstandenen verhaltenswissenschaftlich orientierten Ansatzes, der die traditionelle Finanzmarkttheorie ergänzt. Hens und Schenk-Hoppé stellen ein evolutionäres Simulationsmodell vor, bei dem der Aktienmarkt als heterogene Population von häufig interagierenden Portfolio-Strategien im Wettbewerb um Marktkapital verstanden wird. Dabei wenden sie eine an Darwinschen Ideen orientierte Theorie der Portfolio-Selektion auf Aktien des Dow Jones Industrial Average an. Sie analysieren die Vermögensdynamik zwischen unterschiedlichen Portfolio-Strategien in einem Aktienmarktmodell mit tatsächlich gezahlten Dividenden. Die evolutionäre stabile Portfolio-Strategie, deren Budgetanteile proportional zu den erwarteten relativen Dividenden der Aktien sind, erzielt dabei langfristig das höchste Anlagevermögen imWettbewerb mit anderen Strategien. Und sie ist zudem die einzige Strategie mit dieser Eigenschaft

    Studies with a liquid argon time projection chamber: addressing technological challenges of large-scale detectors

    No full text
    Michael Schenk evaluates new technologies and methods, such as cryogenic read-out electronics and a UV laser system, developed to optimise the performance of large liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPC). Amongst others, the author studies the uniformity of the electric field produced by a Greinacher high-voltage generator operating at cryogenic temperatures, measures the linear energy transfer (LET) of muons and the longitudinal diffusion coefficient of electrons in liquid argon. The results are obtained by analysing events induced by cosmic-ray muons and UV laser beams. The studies are carried out with ARGONTUBE, a prototype LArTPC in operation at the University of Bern, Switzerland, designed to investigate the feasibility of drift distances of up to five metres for electrons in liquid argon. Contents The ARGONTUBE detector The Greinacher high-voltage generator Linear energy transfer of muons in liquid argon UV laser methods and measurements Target Groups Lecturers and students of applied physics specialising in particle detector technologies Researchers developing liquid argon time projection chambers for rare event detection, e.g. in the field of neutrino physics or astrophysics About the Author Michael Schenk obtained his master’s degree in Applied / Experimental Physics from the University of Bern, Switzerland, and is currently doing an internship at CERN, Geneva, Switzerland in the fields of collective effects and beam instabilities in particle accelerators

    Prosopocoilus similis Schenk, 2009 (Figs 39–42, 49–51) Prosopocoilus similis Schenk, 2009. Beetles World, 3: 2. Length 23.0–57.0 mm. Width 8.5–15.6 mm. Color. Reddish to dark brown (Figs 39–42). Head. Almost trapezoidal, 1.7 times wider than long. Anterior margin at middle strongly concaved, with forming a large, deep, triangularly frontal depression in males. Vertex strongly raised, almost V-shaped. Male mandibles. Relatively long, about 1.1–1.4 times as long as the total length of head and pronotum in large and medium-sized males. Mandibles of large males curved inwards. The apex sharp with a marked sub-apical tooth. An internally large triangular tooth situated anteriorly (about at 1/3 position on each mandible); at the front of this tooth, 3–5 denticles sparsely ranged to the sub-apical one; behind it, 4–7 denticles regularly serrated to the mandibular base. Mentum. Almost trapezoidal, front angles quite rounded, scattered with small punctures. Pronotum. 2.0 times wider than long, almost as wide as that of head. Front angles acute. Lateral margins slightly curved, little divergent on anterior 2/3, then convergent on posterior 1/3. Hind angles obtusely rounded. Elytra. 1.2–1.4 times longer than wide, almost as wide as that of pronotum. Disc dim and reddish. Punctures presented densely along the elytra suture. Legs. Front tibiae slender, laterally serrated with 5–7 small teeth in males. Middle and hind tibiae simply with a small spine. Aedeagus (Figs 49–51). Stout, the ventrally triangular teeth of PA presented near the apex, quite large, long (about 1.5 mm from the point angle to outer margin of PA) and sharply-curved. PES about 2.3 times the length of Tegmen. BP about 1.5 times the length of PA. Female genitalia. Unknown, no female specimen examined. Material examined. China, Guangxi, Baise, 21 July 2010, 8♂, Ying-Bin Li leg. (in MAHU). Distribution. China (Yunnan, Guangxi). Remarks. This species is similar to P. gracilis, but there are differences between them. Remarkably, males of P. gracilis slender and narrower in body shape; sub-apical tooth absent or like a very small knob; the ventrally triangular tooth of PA small, short and blunt. On the contrary, male body relatively stout and broad in P. similis, sub-apical tooth very marked and the tooth of PA large, long and sharply. Also, aedeagus of P. similis is similar to that of P. piceipennis, especially the tooth of PA. But they can be differed with frontal depression, male mandibles and pronotum as figures showed (Figs 18–21, 39–42).

    3-color global integrated mosaic of Europa featuring all resolved images of the surface using Galileo and Voyager images.A new global 3-color base map mosaic of Europa has been produced by Dr. Paul Schenk at the Lunar and Planetary Institute, using Galileo and Voyager images. Geographic control uses updated image camera kernels for all Galileo, Voyager and New Horizons images produced but he author. A final version will be posted late in 2020 which will incorporate any final minor adjustments to the control information
