Previously, harmonic Franck-Condon calculations for this transition were . The present calculations allow for anharmonicity in the ground state, although the upper-state potential is still assumed to be . The transition moment is taken to be proportional to the bending coordinate. For the calculation of the dispersed fluorescence it is found that the global potential surface of Halonen, Child and gives the best qualitative agreement for the intensities, but could be improved for the energies of high bending states
Elaboration on Kwapien's theorem: Representing bounded mean zero functions f as coboundary f = g ◦ T − g
No full textIn [8] Kwapien proved that every mean zero function f ∈ L∞[0, 1] we can write as f = g ◦ T − g for some g ∈ L∞[0, 1] and some measure preserving transformation T of [0, 1]. However, as was discovered in [4] there is a gap in the proof for the case that f is not continuous. The aim of this bachelor thesis is filling in that gap in the proof. We first extend Kwapien’s proof for continuous functions to certain other measure spaces. Thereafter, we use the method of proof suggested by Kwapien, to proof the theorem for mean zero function f ∈ L∞[0, 1] for which λ(f−1({x})) = 0 for all x ∈ R. Using this result we then proof that every mean zero function f ∈ L∞[0, 1] can be written as a sum f =(g1 ◦ T1 − g1) + (g2 ◦ T2 − g2) where g1, g2 ∈ L∞[0, 1] and where T1, T2 are measure preserving transformations of [0, 1]. We finish this thesis with an application of Kwapien’s theorem in the study to singular traces Applied Mathematic

Visual marking and change blindness : moving occluders and transient masks neutralize shape changes to ignored objects
No full textVisual search efficiency improves by presenting (previewing) one set of distractors before the target and remaining distractor items (D. G. Watson & G. W. Humphreys, 1997). Previous work has shown that this preview benefit is abolished if the old items change their shape when the new items are added (e.g., D. G. Watson & G. W. Humphreys, 2002). Here we present 5 experiments that examined whether such object changes are still effective in recapturing attention if the changes occur while the previewed objects are occluded or masked. Overall, the findings suggest that masking transients are effective in preventing both object changes and the presentation of new objects from capturing attention in time-based visual search conditions. The findings are discussed in relation to theories of change blindness, new object capture, and the ecological properties of time-based visual selection.

Return on Investment in Public Relations: A critical assessment of concepts used by practitioners from the perspectives of communication and management sciences
No full textReturn on Investment (ROI) is a term commonly and non-specifically used by public relations practitioners when discussing the value to be created from communication activities. It mimics business language, particularly from business administration and financial management, but does not figure widely in academic discourse (Watson, 2005).
Although the Institute for Public Relations [now CIPR] undertook a review of ROI practice in the United Kingdom (IPR/CDF 2004) and Likely, Rockland & Weiner (2006) proposed variations of ROI as alternatives to the discredited Advertising Value Equivalence (AVEs) measure of value creation, there has been little discussion other than Macnamara (2007) and Gregory and Watson (2008).
This paper gives an overview on the views of ROI in public relations literature and concepts used by agencies and providers of measurement services. It reports on survey research amongst practitioners in several European countries on identifying the economic value of public relations. The findings are compared with the concepts of ROI used in business and accounting literature (Weber and Schäffer, 2006; Drury, 2007).
Applied theory and parameters for the development of measurement and evaluation techniques are proposed. The paper concludes that the use of the term ROI in public relations needs a proper foundation in overriding management theory; otherwise PR theory and practice will discredit themselves
TWO-PHOTON SPECTROSCOPY OF THE AND STATES OF

The laser source for these measurements is an excimer-pumped dye laser operating with PBBO dye at 415 nm. This light is doubled in a crystal and focused into a cell containing a mixture of in He. The uv wavelengths were calibrated against the (3.0) band in NO, which was calibrated against in the visible. Vibrational levels were observed in the state and in the state, based on the previous electron-impact , and partially resolved rotationally (the effective excitation linewidth is ). These assignments are supported by simulations of the two-photon excitation spectra. Although the fluorescence has not yet been spectrally resolved, we believe that it arises predominantly from the triplet state even when the singlet is initially excited. In the latter case, the fluorescence is temporally delayed, and increases in intensity as the He density is increased. The two-phonon excitation scheme we have developed should be useful in investigating the kinetics of the 158 nm laser, which is believed to arise from a transition from the outer well of the state to a weakly bound state correlating to ground state atoms.$^{2}
