Overview: Wer sich etwas gründlicher mit denjenigen Vorschriften innerhalb der Steuergesetze beschäf­ tigt, die die Regelung des Steuersatzes zum Inhalt haben, stellt sehr bald fest, daß sie sich von den Vorschriften allen sonstigen Inhalts auf zumindest zweifache Art und Weise abheben. Gehört ein steuergesetzlicher Rechtssatz dem Steuersatz- oder, wie man es in etwa genauso auch ausdrücken kann, dem Steuertarifrecht an, so zeichnet er sich nämlich einmal dadurch aus, daß seine juristische Existenz eher eine solche "am Rande" des Notwendigen ist, er sei­ nen Platz im Gesetzestext nicht ein ein

Overview: The emergence over the past several years of space plasma simula­ tions as a distinct field of endeavor, rather than simply the somewhat startling offspring of plasma physics, computer simulations and space observations, has necessitated a concentrated effort at interdigitat­ ing its parent and component fields. After several years of working the benefits of a well-defined interactive community of those without working in the field, a group of those who had gained greatly from setting up joint research projects and other lines of communication, arranged to further these gains by sett
