Azimuthal anisotropy of charged jet production in √sNN = 2.76 TeV Pb–Pb collisions

2016

We present measurements of the azimuthal dependence of charged jet production in central and semicentral √sNN = 2.76 TeV Pb–Pb collisions with respect to the second harmonic event plane, quantified as vch jet 2 . Jet finding is performed employing the anti-kT algorithm with a resolution parameter R = 0.2 using charged tracks from the ALICE tracking system. The contribution of the azimuthal anisotropy of the underlying event is taken into account…

Evolving city governance – toward smart maturity

The research group is focusing on interdiscplinary concepts of Industry 4.0/in interaction with smart city. This group is engaged in looking for a universal model of smart city maturity. The MModel4SmartCity will provide specific analysis of best practices of smart cities based on measure of level smartness, business solutions and technologies to achieve a really smart city in all dimensions. The goal is to increase knowledge on the smart city maturity measurement. The research will also contribute to the development of strategic management theory, especially in research results and tools that can support the development of smart cities in particular dimensions. The proposed concept will co…

Chiaromonte Palace, known as “Steri”, is one of the iconic places of the city of Palermo. It holds seven centuries of art and history of Sicily. It is the first example of the new architectural style, that appeared in Sicily at the beginning of the 14th century, the style precisely called “chiaromontano”. The palace, after several uses, is now the seat of the Rectorate.

Miten henkilökohtaiset työtavoitteet ovat yhteydessä työn intohimoon

2017

Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastelimme toimihenkilöiden henkilökohtaisia työtavoitteita sekä niiden yhteyttä harmoniseen ja pakonomaiseen työn intohimoon. Tutkimme suomalaisia toimihenkilöitä (n = 266, keski-ikä 39, kh = 3,3, vaihteluväli 31 – 44), jotka osallistuivat poikkileikkaustutkimukseen vuonna 2014. Tutkittavista 80,5 % oli miehiä ja esimiesasemassa työskenteli 70,7 %. Henkilökohtaisia työtavoitteita kartoitettiin avoimella kysymyksellä, ja t…

Ethnographic Collection

The department’s ethnographic collection cares for about 2,700 ethnographic objects, mainly from Central and West Africa, but also from Australia, Papua New Guinea and other parts of Oceania. They represent the areas of technology and material culture, and a range of activities including religious practices, hunting and warfare, music, art, and household. This diverse and striking collection is comprised of a wide range of objects, including weapons, basket, musical instruments, textiles and religious objects, such as the outstanding power figure from the Chiloango River collected by R. Visser in the late 19th century.\nThe collection was started in 1950 by Erika Sulzmann, who, in 1948, bec…

40.000 Years of Human Challenges: Perception, Conceptualization and Coping in Premodern Societies

Challenges can be/form/represent starting points of development and change, stagnation and progress as well as success and failure. At least since the appearance of anatomically modern humans in Western Eurasia about 40,000 years ago, both individuals and communities have developed practices to overcome various forms of challenges, challenges we still face today. For a better/deeper understanding of present as well as future challenges and possible solutions, the diachronic and cross-cultural study of short- and long-term developments over the aforementioned time period offers promising data that have so far been ignored in the discussion. Only such a long-term perspective makes it possible…

Laboratory for the Study of Learning and Development

The LEAD is a cognitive psychology laboratory that studies the modifications of information processing processes following learning (implicit, didactic and professional) and development. The theoretical originality of the unit is to defend a parsimonious approach to cognition that differs from the dominant theoretical models. Basic research is complemented by research with direct implications in the field of health, and to a lesser extent, education and business. An increasing place is given to interdisciplinary studies. LEAD studies the mental activities that regulate our behavioural interactions with the environment. The development of these mental activities as well as their dysfunctions…

A Dialysis Photocatalytic Reactor for the Green Production of Vanillin

2020

In the present work, dialysis was used to recover vanillin while being produced by partial photocatalytic oxidation of ferulic acid in an aqueous solution at ambient temperature. The relatively high value of the permeate flux through a dense polyether-block amide membrane allowed continuously extracting vanillin from the reacting solution, thus avoiding its successive oxidation. The rate of vanillin formation was improved, compared to other reac…

The historical building of the University of Latvia

Building of the Riga Polytechnic (1862-1896) and Riga Polytechnic Institute (1896-1918). The architect of the main building is Gustav Hilbig. A particularly interesting object of interest is the Student Punishment Cell/Detention Center, which allows an insight into the life of students of the Riga Polytechnic and the Riga Polytechnic Institute (circa 1875-1905) in the Russian Empire (1721-1918). The cell has a historical but also a legendary aura. The pen writings on the walls preserve the authentic historical evidence of student life in the 19th and 20th centuries. These testimonies were left by students and members of German-Baltic, Polish, Russian and Latvian student corporations who onc…
