Overview: The study of water stress is one of the most interesting subjects in. the investigation of water relations in plants. From the theoretical point of view it is concerned with investigating the mechanisms of the distribution and movement of water in the plant organism and the way in which physiolo­ gical processes are influenced by water deficiency. From the practical point of view, water deficiency is a major factor limiting plant production. It has been progressively shown that water deficiency is not by far· only a factor in plant life in dry climates, that obvious wilting is not th

Overview: Nominated as an outstanding PhD thesis by Oxford University, Oxford, UK.Offers a detailed description of the weak-coupling method, enabling readers to easily adapt it to other superconductors.ProvidesThis thesis sheds important new light on the puzzling properties of Strontium Ruthenate. Using a sophisticated weak-coupling approach, exact within certain limits, it shows that proper treatment of spin-orbit and multi-band effects is crucial to the physics. Based on the results of these calculations, it resolves a crucial, long-standing puzzle in the field: It demonstrates why the exper

Overview: Devisenoptionen wurden in der Literatur in den siebziger Jahren kaum erwähnt, in den achtziger Jahren erlangten sie zunehmend praktische Bedeutung. Sie sind seither immer mehr zum Gegenstand der wissenschaftlichen Diskussion geworden, in der - wie es die Einsatzmöglichkeiten von Devisenoptionen nahelegen - Fragen der Kurssicherung, des Risikomanagements und der Spekulation im Vordergrund stehen. Ein kleinerer Teil der einschlägigen Literatur widmet sich theoretischen Themen und stützt sich dabei auf die Erkenntnisse, die mit einigen Jahren Vorlauf zu Aktienoptionen gewonnen wurden. I
