Brigitte Hamann, Hitlers Edeljude: Das Leben des Armenarztes Eduard Bloch
No full textIn this extraordinary book, Brigitte Hamann recounts the life and times of Hitler’s Jewish childhood physician, Dr. Eduard Bloch (1872-1945). Relying on meticulous research in Austria, Germany, and the United States, the author provides insights into the ambiguous feelings of admiration and respect that characterized the relationship of the Jewish doctor and the Nazi dictator throughout their lives. Hamann not only sweeps away misconceptions about Hitler’s youth, but in lucid, often gripping,..

Motive und Motivationen als Grundlage menschlichen Verhaltens – Überlegungen zu einer integrativen Motivationstheorie
No full textDie Untersuchungen der Autorin zur Motivation führen zu dem Schluss, dass Grundmotive im Menschen genetisch angelegt sind. Diese sind implizit in seinem Menschen- und Weltbild vorhanden und werden in situativen Motivationsprozessen aktualisiert. Das Motiv der Hilfeleistung, das in therapeutischen oder beraterischen Prozessen beim Therapeuten aktiviert ist, findet ein Gegenüber im Motiv der Suche nach Hilfe beim Klienten. Beide Seiten folgen einem, von der Autorin dargestellten intersubjektiven Motivationsprozess.The author’s research focuses on the origin and development of motives and moti¬vation with special emphasis on the motive of helpfulness in therapy or consulting. Helpfulness is an essential of the human character. It determines our concepts of the world and of mankind. From an integrative point of view the author discusses the origins of motives in man and develops a structural model of the process of motivation and behaviour of both, client and therapist.https://www.fpi-publikation.de/polyloge/13-2012-jaekel-brigitte-motive-und-motivationen-als-grundlage-menschlichen-verhaltens/peerReviewedpublishedVersio

No full textThe Edgar and Brigitte Bodenheimer Collection documents the professional and personal life of law professor Edgar Bodenheimer as well as that of his wife, Brigitte Bodenheimer (née Levy). The collection contains documentation on their early legal work during the 1940s, Edgar's participation in the Nuremberg Trials, and postwar work as professors, as well as material on their daily lives and other family members. The collection includes a copious amount of correspondence, lecture texts, certificates and diplomas, diaries and notebooks, newspaper clippings, teaching material, poetry, a friendship album, and other papers.Original order in 5 boxes: Box 1: Edgar and Brigitte Bodenheimer: journals, poems, documents. Box 2: Edgar Bodenheimer: speeches & talks, CV, bibligraphies, teaching materials, reviews of E.B.'s books. Box 3: Edgar Bodenheimer professional correspondence. Box 4a: Edgar Bodenheimer personal correspondence. Box 4b: Edgar Bodenheimer personal correspondence.A book about Edgar and Brigitte Bodenheimer by their daughter Rosemarie Bodenheimer is available in the LBI Library: "Edgar and Brigitte: a German Jewish passage to America". This book was written using the documents in this collection.Two books by Edgar Bodenheimer with his extensive handwritten notes were removed to the LBI Library. Photocopies of these notes were retained in the collection and will be found in Series III.Edgar Bodenheimer was born in Berlin on March 14, 1908, the son of the bank director Siegmund Bodenheimer and his wife Rosa (called Rosi, née Maass). He studied law and political science at various German and Swiss universities, acquiring his Doctor of Laws from the University of Heidelberg in 1933. In 1934 Edgar Bodenheimer immigrated to the United States, where he found a position in a New York City law office.Brigitte M. Levy was the daughter of Ernst Levy, a professor and scholar of Roman Law at the University of Heidelberg, and Marie Levy (née Wolff). After studies at various German universities, she received her doctoral degree in jurisprudence from the University of Heidelberg in 1934 after have immigrating to New York, where she continued her studies at Columbia University. In 1935 Edgar Bodenheimer and Brigitte M. Levy married. (They eventually had three children: Peter became a professor of astrophysics at the University of California; Thomas became a physician; and Rosemarie became an author and professor of English literature at Boston College.In 1935 the couple moved to Seattle, Washington, where they both studied law at the University of Washington. Edgar Bodenheimer joined the Washington Bar Association in 1939 once he had become a citizen. The following year Edgar Bodenheimer received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Law Librarianship. His book ‘Jurisprudence’ was published in 1940; many other books followed until 1962. In 1942 the Bodenheimers moved to Washington, D.C., working in various official positions. In 1945 Edgar joined the prosecuting team at the Nuremberg Trials.In 1946 Edgar Bodenheimer took a position at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City; in 1951 he was made full professor and held the position until his departure in 1966. Brigitte Bodenheimer worked primarily in the fields of divorce, marriage, and juvenile court legislation. In 1964 she also became a full-time professor at the University of Utah.In 1966 Edgar Bodenheimer became professor of law at the University of California at Davis. In 1975 he became Professor Emeritus. Brigitte Bodenheimer became a full professor at Davis in 1972; in 1979 she became Professor Emeritus. She died in 1981 at the age of 69.Edgar Bodenheimer held visiting professorships at several universities in Germany and in the U.S. In 1975 he was named an Outstanding Educator of America. He died in 1991 in Davis, California, survived by his second wife, Brigitte née Schoenberg.Finding aid available onlineProcesseddigitize
Mathematical modeling and numerical analysis of Bloch model for quantum dots
No full textLes boîtes quantiques sont les nanostructures confinées suivant les trois directions de l'espace. Depuis quelques décennies, de nombreuses études sont consacrées à des boîtes pour leurs propriétés électroniques et optiques intéressantes.Dans cette thèse, nous modélisons le comportement électronique de boîtes quantiques par un modèle de type Bloch dérivé dans le formalisme de Heisenberg. La fermeture des équations du modèle aboutit à un modèle non-linéaire issu des interactions coulombiennes et des interactions entre les électrons et les phonons. Nous étudions les propriétés qualitatives de la solution des modèles de Bloch obtenus (trace, hermicité, positivité) ainsi que le problème de Cauchy associé au couplage semi-couplage avec les équations de Maxwell. Nous dérivons également formellement des équations de taux à partir des modèles de Bloch non-linéaires. La discrétisation des modèles unidimensionnels de Maxwell--Bloch fait appel à une méthode de splitting (méthode par pas fractionnaires) pour les équations de Bloch préservant les propriétés qualitatives du modèle continu. La validation du modèle et l'étude de pertinence de certaines simplifications sont effectuées grâce à des cas tests de transparence auto-induite et de transfert de cohérence.Quantum dots are nanostructures confined in the three space directions. Since many decades, numerous studies have been devoted to these structures for their interesting electronic and optical properties.In this thesis, we model the electronic behaviour of quantums dots thanks to a type Bloch model derived il the Heisenberg formalism. The closure of equations leads to a non linear model stemming from Coulomb and electron--phonon interactions. We study the qualitative properties of the obtained Bloch models (trace, hermicity, positivitiveness) and the Cauchy problem for the semi-classical model coupling Bloch and Maxwell equations to describe laser--quantum dot interaction. We derive also formally rate equations from the non-linear Bloch equations. The discretizations of one-dimensionnal Maxwell--Bloch equations involve splitting methods for the Bloch equations, which enable the preservation of the qualitative properties of the continuous model. The validation of the model and the study of the relevancy of some simplification is performed thanks to self-induced transparency and coherence-transfert test cases
Time Discretizations for Maxwell-Bloch Equations
No full textInternational audienceIn this article we derive new time discretizations for the numerical simulation of Maxwell-Bloch equations. These discretizations decouple the equations, thus leading to improved efficiency. This approach may be combined with the fulfilment of physical properties, such as positiveness properties, which are not accounted for by classical schemes. Our time discretizations are moreover proved to be nonlinearly stable
