    Wolf-Rayet Stars

    No full text
    Nearly 150 years ago, the French astronomers Charles Wolf and Georges Rayet described stars with very conspicuous spectra that are dominated by bright and broad emission lines. Meanwhile termed Wolf-Rayet Stars after their discoverers, those objects turned out to represent important stages in the life of massive stars. As the first conference in a long time that was specifically dedicated to Wolf-Rayet stars, an international workshop was held in Potsdam, Germany, from 1.-5. June 2015. About 100 participants, comprising most of the leading experts in the field as well as as many young scientists, gathered for one week of extensive scientific exchange and discussions. Considerable progress has been reported throughout, e.g. on finding such stars, modeling and analyzing their spectra, understanding their evolutionary context, and studying their circumstellar nebulae. While some major questions regarding Wolf-Rayet stars still remain open 150 years after their discovery, it is clear today that these objects are not just interesting stars as such, but also keystones in the evolution of galaxies. These proceedings summarize the talks and posters presented at the Potsdam Wolf-Rayet workshop. Moreover, they also include the questions, comments, and discussions emerging after each talk, thereby giving a rare overview not only about the research, but also about the current debates and unknowns in the field. The Scientific Organizing Committee (SOC) included Alceste Bonanos (Athens), Paul Crowther (Sheffield), John Eldridge (Auckland), Wolf-Rainer Hamann (Potsdam, Chair), John Hillier (Pittsburgh), Claus Leitherer (Baltimore), Philip Massey (Flagstaff), George Meynet (Geneva), Tony Moffat (Montreal), Nicole St-Louis (Montreal), and Dany Vanbeveren (Brussels)

    Sich der Spaltung widersetzen. Von Geistern, Fiktionen und dokumentarischer Praxis bei Merle Kröger und Philip Scheffner.

    Grenzfälle, das hier vorliegende Buch, verfolgt das Anliegen, die ungemein vielschichtige und wegweisende gemeinsame Arbeit der Schriftstellerin, Drehbuchautorin und Dramaturgin Merle Kröger und des Künstlers und Filmemachers Philip Scheffner aufzufächern, ihren großzügigen Einladungen und Herausforderungen zu folgen, uns in den Räumen ihrer Grenzfälle aufzuhalten, darin und damit zu denken und zu agieren – um zu verlernen. Grenzfälle sind hier Orte des Verweilens. Grenzfälle sind Beziehungen, Verbindungslinien, komplexe Knotenpunkte, produktive Ränder. Grenzfälle werden grundlegend und bis ins Detail ob ihrer strukturellen Verwebungen, der ihnen eigenen Prozesse und materiellen und temporalen Eigenschaften befragt. Grenzfälle werden ungewöhnlich ernst genommen, sie entweichen zu keinem Moment der multisensorischen Aufmerksamkeit. Oft sind sie außergewöhnlich und werden genau dadurch Gegenstand der Arbeit an der Merkfähigkeit einer Gesellschaft. Oft spukt es, nachdem wir ihnen begegnet sind. Grenzfälle nehmen achtsam wahr, übernehmen Verantwortung. Sie untersuchen strukturelle Spaltung, deren Fiktion und deren oft tödliche Gewalt. Grenzfälle vergessen keine Form der Gewalt. Grenzfälle nehmen nichts so hin, ›wie es ist‹, und fordern ihre eigenen Grenzen heraus. Grenzfälle sind Handwerkszeug, Möglichkeit und Überlebensnotwendigkeit. Sie sind in diesem Sinne radikale Strukturbefragungen, die weitreichende Affekte auslösen

    Wolf Ride Overdrive

    No full text
    We are Dev Team 4 of the Information Systems division of Computer Science and our Project is Wolf Ride Overdrive. Wolf Ride is a way for students of Western Oregon University to request the service of a ride to any destination inside of Monmouth and Independence. It was created as a way for students who wouldn’t feel comfortable at night to be able to request a ride service that Western Oregon University operates. The current service of requesting a ride requires making a phone call to a number associated with the Service, our project sought to create a new way to be able for students of all needs to be able to request this service besides the use of a phone. Wolf Ride Overdrive was born from this Idea that all students of all needs should be able to access the Wolf Ride service. Wolf Ride Overdrive can allow all students a new way of requesting the Wolf Ride service. We have done this by creating an online service for requesting a ride from Wolf Ride. Wolf RIde Overdrive can have students create an account where they can input their contact information, email and phone number, as well as their home address. With their account created and information stored Students can use the Wolf Ride Overdrive site to request a ride. Wolf Ride Overdrive can offer students the option of visiting predetermined locations to visit such as Hamersly Library, Werner University Center, as well as the neighboring grocery stores in the town. This provides them quick access to anywhere they would like to get to or be picked up from. Wolf Ride Overdrive can also be used to store the students home address for fast selection by the students. Should the students like to go somewhere beside the predetermined locations then they simply need to select the custom options on Wolf Ride Overdrive and the system can take in these requests instead. Once the ride has been requested Wolf Ride Overdrive can quickly notify the student by email that their ride was successfully submitted and that Wolf Ride will be there shortly to take them to their destination. Wolf Ride Overdrive can also send an email to the driver on duty informing them of who is requesting the ride and where they will want to be picked up from and where they would like to go. Wolf Ride Overdrive can also store all the information about the use of the Wolf Ride so that later a deep dive can be done on the usage of the Wolf Ride system. Wolf Ride Overdrive was created to bring all the Wolf Ride services and system under one location to allow for automated delivery of ride requests as well as storage of the use of the system without requiring a physical tracking system so information can be sorted and gone through quicker for analytics of the Wolf Ride system
