The creation of an efficient public transport system requires collaborations between formal independent organizations. This paper examines collaborations between public and private organizations and passengers, with the aim of contributing to the conceptual understanding of collaborations on public transport. The study begins by describing previous research on collaboration in the public transport
The inclusive gluon production at midrapidities is described in the color glass condensate formalism using the kT-factorization formula, which was derived at fixed coupling constant considering the scattering of a dilute system of partons with a dense one. Recent analysis demonstrated that this approach provides a satisfactory description of the experimental data for the inclusive hadron productio
In this paper we study the propagation problem of a time harmonic electro- magnetic field inside a cavity filled with a generic bianisotropic medium. We define the concepts of eigenfrequencies and modes of the cavity and we prove their existence and countability. We extend, in this respect, the theory for the isotropic, homogeneous, lossless cavity.

High resolution photoemission applied to the C 1s and Rh 3d core levels has been used to investigate the adsorption sites at low temperature of CO on the Rh(111) single crystal surface as a function of CO coverage. Two different sites are found to be occupied by the CO molecules. At coverages up to 0.5 monolayers the majority of the molecules are found to adsorb in on-top sites whereas at higher c

The basic ideas of k(t)-factorization and CCFM parton evolution is discussed. The unintegrated gluon densities, obtained from CCFM fits to the proton structure function data at HERA are used to predict hadronic final state cross-sections like jet production at HERA, but also comparisons with recent measurements of heavy quark production at the Tevatron are presented. Finally, the k(t)-factorizatio
This master thesis maps and discusses the current and future needs, wishes and challenges of office workers. The resultant contextual knowledge is utilized to develop a concept of an office chair. The work followed an exploratory design process. Initially, literature and data on various topics were researched to form an understanding of the current and future working conditions of office workers.
Theorists of late modernity are discussing the effects of individualization on heterosexual couples. Processes of individualization are understood in terms of the individualized framework of thinking about self and others permeating Western societies. Sociological analyses of therapeutic manuals appoint them both as a symptom and as an effect of individualization processes. In popular therapy, Bec
Rapid control of bleeding is the key to reducing bleeding complications and thereby preserving joint and musculoskeletal function in haemophilia patients with inhibitors. However, this requires early diagnosis following the onset of bleeding and strategies for rapid treatment in an outpatient setting. Overarching themes on the need for speed in managing bleeds in haemophilia patients were examined
Background: Birthweight and gestational age are key indicators for perinatal health obtained through the birth certificate. Knowing the validity of birth certificate data is crucial when identifying needs and evaluating birth outcomes. In Spain, vital information is reported by parents and is not checked for consistency with any hospital document. Therefore, to perform a validation study and descr
This thesis examines a local low-carbon energy transition in an urban context with regard to energy justice. It takes the Vauban district in Freiburg (Germany) as a case study which has been described as a successful case of energy transition and a model for sustainable urban development. From a theoretical point of view, energy justice encompasses a fair distribution of costs and benefits of an e
LICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is studying the physics of strongly interacting matter, and in particular the properties of the Quark–Gluon Plasma (QGP), using proton–proton, proton–nucleus and nucleus–nucleus collisions at the CERN LHC (Large Hadron Collider). The ALICE Collaboration is preparing a major upgrade of the experimental apparatus, planned for installation in the second long LHC
We show theoretically that the poor can benefit from price changes induced by higher income inequality. As the number of poor increases, the market for products aimed toward the poor grows, and such products become more profitable. As a result, there are circumstances where an increase in income inequality associates with higher purchasing power of the poor. Using cross-country data on the price o
Implicit figuration and subjective interpretation make up the conventional basis of the classical discussion of the omprehensiveness and aesthetic quality of the metaphor.Its function and use in Social Science is illustrated as a background to a radical different methodological approach. By means of Perspective Text Analysis it is demonstrated that the metaphor has to be conceived as the Re-naming
Let $H^2_m$ be the Hilbert function space on the unit ball in $\C{m}$ defined by the kernel $k(z,w) = (1-\langle z,w \rangle)^{-1}$. For any weak zero set of the multiplier algebra of $H^2_m$, we study a natural extremal function, $E$. We investigate the properties of $E$ and show, for example, that $E$ tends to $0$ at almost every boundary point. We also give several explicit examples of the extr
