Im Valenz- und Rumpfelektronenbereich werden kondensationsinduzierte Änderungen elektronischer Zustände inklusive ihrer Energie, Symmetrie und ihres Zerfalls sowie durch elektronische Anregung stimulierte Reaktionen an Oberflächen untersucht, um ein detailliertes Bild der mikroskopischen Prozesse zu erlangen, insbesondere der Kopplung von elektronischer und nuklearer Dynamik. Dazu sind hochempfindliche Detektionsverfahren für Elektronen, Ionen und neutrale Teilchen entwickelt und auf Chemisorbate (zweiatomige Moleküle auf Übergangs- und Edelmetallen), Physisorbate (Edelgase auf Metallen) und Kondensate (Edelgase, Wasser, Ammoniak) angewendet worden. Erstmals wurde nachgewiesen, dass auch bei Photodissoziation von Chemisorbaten durch Innerschalenanregung neutrale Reaktionsprodukte dominieren. Einige Reaktionen zeigen sehr starke Selektivität bzgl. des Anregungsortes ("site selective bond breaking"), was durch eine Kombination von Molekül- und Oberflächenkopplung-Eigenschaften erklärt wird. Mittels ionischer Produkte als Sonden werden anderweitig schwer zu detektierende Anregungen kleiner Querschnitte wie Mehrelektronenzustände und Biexzitonen untersucht. Bei Physisorbaten werden mit 2-D-Elektronenspektroskopie erstmals kondensationsinduzierte Änderungen der Postcollision-Wechselwirkung für Innerschalen- Ionisation nachgewiesen und erklärt.

    The Access of Microenterprises to Commercial Microcredit in Aceh Besar: Closing the Gap Juanda1, Stefan Schwarze2, Stephan von Cramon-Taubadel3 1. Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Tropical and International Agriculture, Germany; 2. Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Department of Agricultural Economics and Rural Development, Germany; 3. Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Department of Agricultural Economics and Rural Development, Germany Introduction . Reducing poverty has become an essential part of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) and need to achieve. Microenterprises (MEs) have played an important role in rural developmental activities and were long recognized as vital in poverty alleviation in Indonesia. The developing world has in fact led the way in promoting the importance of rural finance. Access to commercial services is restricted in rural areas and the services can not meet the demand for financial services by rural households. Many microenterprises belong to poor and they are unable to provide collateral. Objectives Credit Limit There were two objectives formulated in this research: . In Indonesia, the official definition of microcredit covers all loans under IDR 50 million 1. To provide a review for the gap between the number of microenterprises (approximately US$5,500). being assisted and the overall number who might need assistance. Only seven percent of microenterprises have credit limit above IDR 50 million (Figure 4). 2. To determine effect of determinant factors which were found in research Figure 4.

  • Ronald C. Wornick an Oral History
    Regional Oral History Office University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Ronald C. Wornick An Oral History Interviews conducted by Richard Cándida Smith in 2011 Copyright © 2013 by The Regents of the University of California ii Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Ronald C. Wornick, dated March 6, 2012. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley. Excerpts up to 1000 words from this interview may be quoted for publication without seeking permission as long as the use is non-commercial and properly cited.

  • The Neuberg Formula
    Match-pointing boards with an unequal number of scores The Neuberg formula 1. Introduction Consider the following situation. The last table to finish play for the evening are just about to start their final board. Everyone else has finished, and the scoring has been completed save for the final board. Pair ‘X’ currently have a top on the final board – but there is still one result to come. What do you think the chances are that Pair ‘X’ will still have a top once the last table have finished? Well, there are three possibilities. Let us say that it is an 11-table complete movement, so a top on a board is 20 match-points. The three possibilities are:- • the final table will beat pair ‘X’s result, so pair ‘X’ will score only 18 points out of 20. • The final table will get the same result, so pair ‘X’ will score 19 points. • The final table will get a worse result, so pair ‘X’ will indeed score their complete top and get 20 points. So, if all three outcomes are equally likely, pair ‘X’ would have a normal expectancy of 19 points out of 20 in such a situation (the average of 18, 19 and 20). However, demonstrably not all three outcomes are equally likely. After all, pair ‘X’ have already beaten 9 out of 9 other results, so it must be heavily odds-on that they will beat the 10th and final result as well – not certain, but very likely. So, their normal expectancy in such a situation must be closer to 20 points than it is to 19.

  • On Neuberg Ian Mckinnon, September 2019
    On Neuberg Ian McKinnon, September 2019 Introduction Bridge players are probably not aware of the way in which their matchpoint scores are calculated for boards that are not played as many times as others in many events. This may occur where a board has been fouled, an average is awarded by the director or a player becomes ill and has to leave the movement for a round or two. At the club level it is more often due to the movement dictating the situation where some boards are played a different number of times. In these cases the results of all the players in the section are impacted significantly. This is unreasonable and completely unnecessary. The important and overriding requirement of any bridge tournament is that all boards in the event should be of equal value. Therefore where some results are missing from a board, a method must be adopted to estimate the scores achieved by the players that is fair and equitable. It must be fair to the pairs that played the board and those that did not. In 1991 the WBF, ACBL and others chose to adopt a method using the Neuberg formula. Myself and other scoring program writers at the time were not aware of, disagreed with or chose to ignore this arbitrary decision. It seems to be clear that the mathematics of this decision was not extensively debated by the administrators and they chose to ignore those that disagreed with their decision. The mathematics of this issue are not simple and generally is not understood by most people.

  • Guidelines for Playing at Farnborough on BBO We Are Trying to Make
    Guidelines for playing at Farnborough on BBO We are trying to make Farnborough Bridge Club a friendly and pleasant environment in which to play online. The following guidelines have been built up from experience and feedback over the past few months and are an attempt to make our tournaments an enjoyable experience for all involved. Please feel free to send feedback so we can continue to adapt and improve. General etiquette Be friendly to your opponents, your partner and the Director. Familiarise yourself with how to communicate via Table Chat and Private Chat. If someone asks you a question in chat, please do your best to answer. A bit of table chat / banter is great, and actively encouraged where both pairs are happy to engage in it (this is a social gathering, after all). However, please don’t chat excessively with your partner at the table whilst the opposition are bidding the hand. A detailed post-mortem of the previous hand can be quite distracting for the opposition whilst they are trying to bid the current hand! A “well played opponents” or “wpo” is a really nice message to the table if you feel it’s something they’ve deserved! Obviously, “wpp” is good, too. But try to avoid any criticism or over-analysis during the round, as this only slows things down and can detract from the enjoyment of the session for others.
