Schwarz Dear Readers, This annual report is intended to bring you up to date with the progress of the construction of the European XFEL facility during 2014. We would also like to share with you the excitement and enthusiasm of our staff and of the community of potential users worldwide. An important achievement in 2014 was reaching the required assembly rate for the accelerator modules and the necessary production rate for the very important radio frequency (RF) couplers, which transport the power of the microwave field needed to accelerate the electrons to the cavities inside the modules. These achievements mitigated considerable schedule risks for the project and opened the way to strategies for accelerating the production and installation of the linear accelerator in the tunnel. The installation of the injector laser and of the accelerating structures for the injector also progressed well. Commissioning with beam is expected to start in mid-2015. By the end of 2014, eight of the total 100 accelerator modules had been installed in their final configuration in the tunnel. Infrastructure installation in the photon tunnels also made great progress and, in the last quarter of the year, the first components for the undulator systems that generate the X-ray flashes were lined up in the tunnel. The 91 undulator segments for all three undulators of the startup phase were in house by the end of the year. At the same time, a large fraction of the components for the intersections between two consecutive undulator segments were also delivered. 7 FOREWORD BY THE MANAGEMENT BOARD In 2014, the financial resources required to equip one of the hard X-ray undulators with the components needed for self-seeding became available. Self-seeding is a technique, invented by scientists from European XFEL and Deutsches Elektronen- Synchrotron (DESY), that greatly improves the quality and reproducibility of the pulses produced by X-ray free-electron lasers (FELs). The X-ray laser pulses generated in the undulators will be guided to the experiment hall by photon beam transport systems, which include appropriate diagnostic equipment. Developments for various diagnostic components were performed in house or in collaboration with other partners, and tests at existing FEL facilities were very successful. The most challenging parts of the photon beamlines are the mirrors, with properties that exceed the previous state of the art and require extremely sophisticated technologies. In 2014, the basic infrastructure for climate control, power distribution, and media in the experiment hall was completed and the first experiment enclosure, a very heavy concrete hutch for the High Energy Density Science (HED) instrument, was built. A major effort—undertaken with the help of specialized engineering companies and advisory committees—was made to optimize the experiment hutches, their technical systems, and the corresponding procurement strategies. The instruments are expected to receive beam in late 2016 or early 2017. The Femtosecond X-Ray Experiments (FXE) group started testing important pieces of instrumentation, including an X-ray emission spectrometer. It will adopt the 2D Large Pixel Detector (LPD), developed by a consortium led by the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom, on behalf of European XFEL. The Single Particles, Clusters, and Biomolecules and Serial Femtosecond Crystallography (SPB/SFX) instrument will adopt the Adaptive Gain Integrating Pixel Detector (AGIPD), also developed on behalf of European XFEL. The other instruments are also making progress. The Optical Lasers, Detector Development, and Sample Environment groups are closely collaborating with the instrument groups to produce the surrounding equipment needed for a world- class experimental programme. In collaboration with the University of Hamburg, theoretical support for the experiments at the European XFEL was started. The former Data Acquisition (DAQ) and Control Systems group was divided into three groups: Advanced Electronics, Control and Analysis Software, and IT and Data Management. This new structure is enabling European XFEL to perform the tasks of the former DAQ and Control Systems group more efficiently. 8 FOREWORD BY THE MANAGEMENT BOARD In May, construction started on the headquarters building, with laboratories and offices just above the experiment hall. Completion is expected in spring 2016. At the end of 2014, very positive news came from the United Kingdom: the decision of the government to join European XFEL as a full member, with a contribution of up to 30 million pounds for the construction of the facility. This is yet another sign of the confidence of the international scientific community in the bright future of the European XFEL. All the achievements of 2014 were the results of the efforts and competence of our staff and that of our partner institutions, to whom we wish to express our deep gratitude. We would also like to thank the Council and the members of our committees for their valuable advice as well as the governments of our partner countries for their ongoing support of the project. Together, we continue to build a leading new international research facility that will help take on some of society’s grand scientific challenges.

Schwarz Managing Directors Thomas Tschentscher Scientific Directors 9 FOREWORD BY THE EUROPEAN XFEL COUNCIL CHAIRMAN Martin Meedom Nielsen Dear Readers, It was a great honour for me to be appointed chairman of the European XFEL Council in 2014, together with Lars Börjesson as the new vice chairman. Although new in this position, I have had the pleasure of following this exciting project from the beginning—first out of scientific curiosity and then as a delegate to the council since 2010. As a scientist, I have had the pleasure to perform several experiments at the two operational hard X-ray free-electron lasers (FELs)— the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) in California and the SPring-8 Angstrom Compact Free Electron Laser (SACLA) in Japan—often in close collaboration with staff from European XFEL. If anything, this experience serves to underline the immense challenges and hard work involved in making an X-ray FEL facility capable of producing scientific results and, at the same time, enabling the truly marvellous range of new scientific discoveries still waiting to be made. Judging from the overflowing auditorium at the 2014 European XFEL Users’ Meeting, the user community shares the high expectations of the scientific possibilities and is eager to take advantage of the tremendous progress that is being made in X-ray science at FEL facilities. European XFEL is making every effort to build a world-class facility to meet these expectations and is actively incorporating developments based on the experience already gained as well as creating new solutions and ideas.

  • Hans Herbert Von Arnim Academic Career and Professional Activities of a “Critical Analyst of the Party System”
    Hans Herbert von Arnim Academic Career and Professional Activities of a “Critical Analyst of the Party System” Upon graduating from high school in 1958, Hans Herbert von Arnim was caught between the wish to study either classical philology or physics, but since he did not want to limit his professional choices too early, he decided to study law in Heidelberg. Having successfully completed his first state legal exam and taking up the mandatory legal traineeship in Mannheim, his idealistic notions of justice were harshly brought down to a more realistic level by two of his instructors at the courts of Mannheim. During the then three-year period of legal traineeship Arnim took up economic studies and – with the support of a scholarship from the Volkswagen Foundation – obtained his diploma with a thesis on quasi-agreements among oligopolistic firms. After having completed his second state legal exam, he wrote his dissertation within eight months while acting as academic assistant for Professor Hermann Weitnauer, a specialist in Heidelberg on labour legislation. The topic of his thesis The Forfeiture of Enterprise-based Pension Entitlements, 19701 was at that point relevant for more than half of Germany’s employees, who lost any entitlements to a pension if they quitted their job or were fired before reaching the required age. As such this was a glaring injustice, which contemporary social policy could do nothing about since employers and unions had agreed – out of short-sighted self-interest - to maintain the status quo. Therefore it was a minor sensation, when in March 1972 the Federal Labour Court passed a landmark decision which confirmed Arnim’s conclusions and enforced the non-forfeiture of enterprise-based pension entitlements.

Maull (Universität Trier) Second examiner: Prof. Dr. Christopher W. Hughes (University of Warwick) Date of viva: April 11, 2011 ABSTRACT Germany and Japan as Regional Actors in the Post-Cold War Era: A Role Theoretical Comparison Recent non-comparative studies diverge in their assessments of the extent to which German and Japanese post-Cold War foreign policies are characterized by continuity or change. While the majority of analyses on Germany find overall continuity in policies and guiding principles, prominent works on Japan see the country undergoing drastic and fundamental change. Using an explicitly comparative framework for analysis based on a role theoretical approach, this study reevaluates the question of change and continuity in the two countries‘ regional foreign policies, focusing on the time period from 1990 to 2010. Through a qualitative content analysis of key foreign policy speeches, this dissertation traces and compares German and Japanese national role conceptions (NRCs) by identifying policymakers‘ perceived duties and responsibilities of their country in international politics. Furthermore, it investigates actual foreign policy behavior in two case studies about German and Japanese policies on missile defense and on textbook disputes.

Wahlperiode 31.01.96 Entschließungsantrag der Abgeordneten Steffi Lemke, Ulrike Höfken, Michaele Hustedt und der Fraktion BÜNDNIS 90/DIE GRÜNEN zu der Großen Anfrage der Abgeordneten Peter Harry Carstensen (Nordstrand), Renate Blank, Peter Bleser, weiterer Abgeordneter und der Fraktion der CDU/CSU sowie der Abgeordneten Dr. Hermann Otto Solms, Günther Bredehorn, Ulrich Heinrich, weiterer Abgeordneter und der Fraktion der F.D.P. — Drucksachen 13/1633, 13/2583, 13/3044 (Berichtigung) — Lage der Fischerei Der Bundestag wolle beschließen: I. Der Deutsche Bundestag stellt fest: Die Entwicklung der Fischbestände in Nordwest-Atlantik, im Nordost-Atlantik sowie in der Nord- und Ostsee ist seit Jahren rückläufig. Neben der jahrzehntelang überhöhten Schadstoff- einleitung in die Meere trägt die Fischereiwirtschaft die Haupt- verantwortung am rapiden Schrumpfen der Fischbestände und am ökologischen Ausverkauf der Meere. Aus der Nordsee werden seit langem mehr Fische entnommen als nachwachsen können. Dabei wird ein Drittel der Gesamtfangmenge als Abfall ins Meer zurückgeworfen (Discard), ein Viertel wird zu Fischöl oder Fischmehl verarbeitet (Industriefischerei). Die wichtigsten Speisefischarten Kabeljau, Schellfisch, Seelachs, Scholle, Seezunge und Makrele sind in der Nordsee bis zur biologisch kritischen Grenze dezimiert. Die Erholung der Be- stände ist akut gefährdet, da immer mehr Fische entnommen werden, bevor sie geschlechtsreif sind. Da das Durchschnitts- gewicht der Fische stetig abnimmt, verschlechtert sich auch das wirtschaftliche Ergebnis der Fischer. Die Fischereiwirt- schaft steht ökonomisch vor dem Aus, da sie sich selbst ihre Wirtschaftsgrundlage entzieht. Die deutsche Große Hochsee- fischerei ist aufgrund des massiven Ertragrückgangs bereits völlig eingestellt worden. Die Europäische Kommission erkennt an, daß die intensive Fischerei zur Überfischung geführt und sich das Verhältnis der Arten zueinander drastisch geändert hat.
