Introduction: Urban agriculture is a low-input system, where the inputs of production are drawn from the urban wastestream. The use of wastewater is beneficial, providing perennial irrigation water and reducing the need ...

An der Elektronen-Stretcher-Anlage ELSA des Physikalischen Instituts der Universität Bonn werden Doppelpolarisationsexperimente zur Untersuchung der Struktur der Baryonen im Rahmen des transregionalen Sonderforschungsbereichs ...

Verschiedene Tierarten sind in der Lage mit hoher Präzision und Geschwindigkeit kurze, pulsartige Flüssigkeitsstrahlen zu erzeugen. Die Tiere nutzen zur Strahlerzeugung unterschiedliche Organe, Mechanismen und Flüssigkeiten. ......

In this thesis we present an analysis of several aspects of four-dimensional, non-perturbative N=1 compactifications of string theory. Our focus is on the study of brane dynamics and their effective physics as encoded in ...

Four case studies were performed on former continental margins and on a continental fragment inside an ophiolitic unit. The studies include Lu-Hf garnet dating, and garnet characterization by its chemical zoning. Lu zoning ...

During epileptogenesis multiple cellular and molecular changes occur in the brain resulting in the emergence of recurrent spontaneous seizures. One member of the Synaptotagmin (Syt) gene family that is rapidly and transiently ...

The theory of the strong interaction, Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), provides the generally accepted description of strongly interacting processes. Due to the confinement of the fundamental degrees of freedom of QCD, the ...

This work is devoted to the analysis of abstract metric measure spaces (M,d,m) satisfying the curvature-dimension condition CD(K,N) presented by Sturm and in a similar form by Lott and Villani.
In the first part, we ...

An der Elektronen-Stretcher-Anlage ELSA des Physikalischen Instituts der Universität Bonn werden derzeit hadronenphysikalische Doppelpolarisationsexperimente im Rahmen des transregionalen Sonderforschungsbereichs SFB/TR ...

In der mesozoischen Evolution der Säugetiere gilt die Entwicklung des tribosphenischen Molaren als ein Schlüssel zur Erschließung pflanzlicher Nahrungsressourcen. Während sich die Funktion des prätribosphenischen Molaren ......
The origin of the tribosphenic molar is treated as an evolutionary key innovation of mammals in the Mesozoic, allowing the exploitation of vegetation as a food resource. While the function of the praetribosphenic molar is ......
