Overview: Presents the first comprehensive review of jet substructure methods and their applications at the LHC.Comprises a complete toolkit for researchers analyzing LHC data with highly boosted final states.C.This book introduces the reader to the field of jet substructure, starting from the basic considerations for capturing decays of boosted particles in individual jets, to explaining state-of-the-art techniques. Jet substructure methods have become ubiquitous in data analyses at the LHC, with diverse applications stemming from the abundance of jets in proton-proton collisions, the presenc

Overview: Adds to the existing knowledge about great power politics and war.Develops a concept of the Vietnam Syndrome that can be applied to other wars.Puts America’s long military venture in the Greater MiddlGreat powers have often found that military adventurism to force their will in distant lands comes with the risk of spending excessive military, economic, and moral capital to the extent that war is no longer sustainable. Written by a former BBC Afghanistan correspondent who set up the corporation’s bureau in Kabul in the early 1990s, this book draws both from scholarly knowledge as well

Overview: The use of Arabidopsis in genetics and biology laboratories can be traced back to the beginning of the century, when the small size of this plant species, its short generation time, and the thousands of seeds produced by each plant attracted the interest of geneticists. In the middle of the century, this plant had already gained a place in several genetics laboratories both in Europe and the United States, being widely used in mutagenesis experiments. However, exponential growth in the use of Arabidopsis as a model system did not get started until the 1980s, when the small size of it

Overview: Includes supplementary material: This volume contains a selection of papers presented during the biennial meeting of the CLAssification and Data Analysis Group (CLADAG) of the Societa Italiana di Statistica which was orga­ nized by the Istituto di Statistica of the Universita degli Studi di Palermo and held in the Palazzo Steri in Palermo on July 5-6, 2001. For this conference, and after checking the submitted 4­ page abstracts, 54 papers were admitted for presentation. They covered a large range of topics from multivariate data analysis, with special emphasis on classification and c

Overview: Nominated as an outstanding thesis by University of California, Santa Barbara.Investigate basic surface interactions by mussels.Understand surface forces apparatus.Investigates adhesion for human mediWater and moisture undermine strong adhesion to polar surfaces. Marine mussels, however, achieve durable underwater adhesion using a suite of proteins that are peculiar in having high levels of 3, 4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (Dopa). Mussel adhesion has inspired numerous studies on developing the next generation of wet adhesives. This thesis presents recent progress in understanding the basi

Overview: Traces the development of academic identity in the modern university.Frames a person-focused, culturally aware pathway for career development that pushes back against neoliberalist practices.Weaves stThis book explores academic identity development in the 21st century university. Recognising dramatic shifts in academic practices and landscapes, the book pushes back on rising neoliberalism with a person-focused, culturally aware pathway for career development. Stories of the author’s own experiences intersect a solid grounding in educational literature, encouraging scholars to take an

Overview: First volume to focus on gender and genocide prevention.Provides new framework for policy-making with regard to genocide.Offers a combination of conceptual contributions and case studies. .This edited collection develops a gendered lens for genocide prevention by uncovering socially constructed gender roles which are crucial for the onset, form and prevention of genocide and mass atrocities. This volume draws on contemporary feminist theory, concepts of masculinity, critical discussions of international law, and in-depth case studies to provide a better understanding of the function

Overview: Presents a way of solving PDEs with very little theory.Provides required background knowledge in the appendix.Appeals to students and researchers alike.​This book presents a concise introduction to a unified Hilbert space approach to the mathematical modelling. .of physical phenomena which has been developed over recent years by Picard and his co-workers. The main focus is on time-dependent partial differential equations with a particular structure in the Hilbert space setting that ensures well-posedness and causality, two essential properties of any reasonable model in mathematical

Overview: In dynamischen Branchen ist in den vergangenen Jahren eine starke Zunahme an der Bildung und an der Bedeutung strategischer Allianzen zu beobachten. Bemerkenswert sind dabei die empirisch nachgewiesenen hohen Raten von gescheiterten Allianzen. Offensichtlich greifen Unternehmen in diesem Gebiet des strategischen Managements auf Instrumente zurück, die nicht adäquat eingesetzt werden, weil Erfahrungen in diesen Bereichen fehlen und Wissen in diesem Gebiet in Unternehmen nicht systematisch gesichert wird. An dieser gleichsam für die Wissenschaft und die Unternehmenspraxis relevanten Pr

Overview: Kinder verfügen am Schulbeginn über sehr heterogene mathematische Fähigkeiten, die einer individuellen Diagnose und Förderung bedürfen. Für die Planung und Durchführung eines auf ihre Fähigkeiten abgestimmten Anfangsunterrichts ist daher das Wissen über Kompetenzen und Vorgehensweisen der Kinder unabdingbar. Theresa Deutscher stellt die Lernstände von Schulanfängerinnen und Schulanfängern inhaltlich umfassend und detailliert für die Grundideen der Arithmetik und der Geometrie dar. Hierzu führt sie klinische Einzelinterviews mit 108 Kindern durch, welche sie sowohl qualitativ als auch
