Overview: Instrumente zur Qualitätssteigerung und ihre Wirkung in journalistischen ZusammenhängenHarald Rau generiert mit einer theoriezentrierten Diskussion journalistischer Qualität und einer Auseinandersetzung mit der Medien innewohnenden Meritorik einen neuen Qualitätsbegriff. Auf dieser Basis gelingt ihm eine Übertragung von in monetär-gewinnmaximierenden Realitäten erprobten Verfahren auf die Publizistik. Dies wird für die beiden Arbeitstechniken Marketing - mit einer publizistischen Erweiterung in Richtung des in den Vereinigten Staaten entwickelten Ansatzes "Total Community Coverage" -

Overview: Overviews the simplifying molecular input-line entry system (SMILES).Presents a fresh extending of space for model design.Features contributions from leading experts in the fieldThis contributed volume overviews recently presented approaches for carrying out QSPR/QSAR analysis by using a simplifying molecular input-line entry system (SMILES) to represent the molecular structure. In contrast to traditional SMILES, quasi-SMILES is a sequence of special symbols-codes that reflect molecular features and codes of experimental conditions. SMILES and quasi-SMILES serve as a basis to develop

Overview: Nominated as an outstanding thesis by Peking University.Combines the high order QCD effect and search for the signal of new physics to provide more accurate predictions on the potential to discover neThis book mainly investigates the precision predictions on the signal of new physics at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) scheme. The potential of the LHC to discover the signal of dark matter associated production with a photon is studied after including next-to-leading order QCD corrections. The factorization and resummation of t-channel t

Overview: .Quantum dots, often denoted artificial atoms, are the exquisite tools by which quantum behavior can be probed on a scale appreciably larger than the atomic scale, that is on the nanometer scale. In this way, the physics of the devices is closer to classical physics than that of atomic physics but they are still sufficiently small to clearly exhibit quantum phenomena. The present volume is devoted to an introduction to some of these fascinating aspects, addressing in particular graduate students and young researchers in the field. In the first lecture by R. Shankar, the general theor

Overview: Comprehensive book on the traditional engineering, construction and maintenance of qanats.Explores the geographical diffusion of qanats across the world and its role in forming and nourishing human ci.This book offers a ready solution for those who wish to learn more about this fascinating part of our water history and makes accessible to the wider world the traditional knowledge gained from building and maintaining qanats for more than 2,500 years.  There is much more here than a summary of the nature and distribution of qanats, and a more extensive journey through the philosophy, m

Overview: Presents a new approach to a hot topic.Includes supplementary material: ."Quantum Interferometry in Phase Space" is primarily concerned with quantum-mechanical distribution functions and their applications in quantum optics and neutron interferometry. In the first part of the book, the author describes the phase-space representation of quantum optical phenomena such as coherent and squeezed states. Applications to interferometry, e.g. in beam splitters and fiber networks, are also presented. In the second part of the book, the theoretical formalism is applied to neutron interferometr

Overview: .In this book a hierarchy of macroscopic models for semiconductor devices is presented. Three classes of models are studied in detail: isentropic drift-diffusion equations, energy-transport models, and quantum hydrodynamic equations. The derivation of each of the models is shown, including physical discussions. Furthermore, the corresponding mathematical problems are analyzed, using modern techniques for nonlinear partial differential equations. The equations are discretized employing mixed finite-element methods. Also, numerical simulations for modern semiconductor devices are perfo

Overview: Queer criminological work is at the forefront of critical academic criminology, responding to the exclusion of queer communities from criminology, and the injustices that they experience through the criminal justice system. This volume draws together both theoretical and empirical contributions that develop the growing scholarship being produced at the intersection of ‘queer‘ and ‘criminology‘. .Reflecting the diversity of research that is undertaken at this intersection, the contributions to this volume offer a deeper theoretical and conceptual development of this field alongside em

Overview: Compact overview of quantum correlations and their impact on the efficiency of quantum computing.Authored by a young pioneer whose work was rewarded with the German Physical Society‘s 2014 DissertatioQuantum correlations are not restricted to the well known entanglement investigated in Bell-type experiments. Other forms of correlations, for example quantum discord, have recently been shown to play an important role in several aspects of quantum information theory. First experiments also support these findings. This book is an introduction into this up-and-coming research field and it

Overview: Kriterien für journalistische Qualität in Krisen und KriegenKriege sind zu globalen Medienereignissen geworden. Für den Journalismus hat das gravierende Konsequenzen: Wie kann er objektiv sein, wenn Information im Krieg immer auch ein militärischer Faktor ist? An welchen Kriterien misst sich journalistische Qualität in Krisenzeiten? Die Autorin beantwortet diese Fragen, indem sie Modelle für einen Friedensjournalismus und Qualitätskonzepte der Journalismustheorie kombiniert. So entwirft sie einen konfliktsensitiven Journalismus, der Objektivität und Qualität durch Multiperspektivität
