    Abstract Schätzungen zufolge leiden 10 % der Erwachsenen einmal in ihrem Leben an einem Fersensporn. Dabei ist zu Beginn oft nicht klar, ob die plötzlich auftretenden Schmerzen direkt von einem Fersensporn verursacht werden oder eher von einer Plantarfasziitis, einer Entzündung der Sehnenplatte der Fußsohle. Auch die Autorin musste bereits diese äußerst schmerzhafte Erfahrung machen. Für Ricarda Rapp waren als begeisterte Sportlerin passive Maßnahmen wie völlige Schonung und Medikamenteneinnahme keine...

    Abstract The hadrochemistry of bottom quarks (b) produced in hadronic collisions encodes valuable information on the mechanism of color neutralization in these reactions. Since the b-quark mass is much larger than the typical hadronic scale of ∼1  GeV, bb[over ¯] pair production is expected to be well separated from subsequent hadronization processes. A significantly larger fraction of b baryons has been observed in proton-proton (pp) and proton-antiproton (pp[over ¯]) reactions relative to e^{+}e^{-} collisions, challenging theoretical descriptions. We address this problem by employing a statistical hadronization approach with an augmented set of b-hadron states beyond currently measured ones, guided by the relativistic quark model and lattice-QCD computations. Assuming relative chemical equilibrium between different b-hadron yields, thermal densities are used as fragmentation weights of b quarks into various hadron species. With quark model estimates of the decay patterns of excited states, the fragmentation fractions of weakly decaying b hadrons are computed and found to agree with measurements in pp[over ¯] collisions at the Tevatron. By combining transverse-momentum (p_{T}) distributions of b quarks from perturbative QCD with thermal weights and independent fragmentation toward high p_{T}, a fair description of the p_{T}-dependent B[over ¯]_{s}^{0}/B^{-} and Λ_{b}^{0}/B^{-} ratios measured in pp collisions at the LHC is obtained. The observed enhancement of Λ_{b}^{0} production is attributed to the feeddown from thus far unobserved excited b baryons. Finally, we implement the hadrochemistry into a strongly coupled transport approach for b quarks in heavy-ion collisions, utilizing previously determined b-quark transport coefficients in the quark-gluon plasma, to highlight the modifications of hadrochemistry and collective behavior of b hadrons in Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC.

    Abstract This review reflects several artists and their artistic research in the field of hybrid art, bio art, or science art, working with Fungi as both subject matter and medium. The work of Saša Spačal, Tarsh Bates and Theresa Schubert is not representational in the manner of traditional fine art, but works rather through performative, multidisciplinary and research-based strategies to produce artwork through fungal material as such. My research results are based on the series "Nonhuman subjectivities" and "Nonhuman agents" that Christian de Lutz and I conceived and realized at Art Laboratory Berlin (2016-18) in various formats-exhibitions, workshops, lectures and a conference. The work of Saša Spačal and her colleagues involves creating interactive situations of symbiosis between the fungal and the human. An example of this is

    Abstract The production of J/ψ mesons in heavy-ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider is believed to be dominated by the recombination of charm and anticharm quarks in a hot QCD medium. However, measurements of the elliptic flow (v_{2}) of J/ψ mesons in these reactions are not well described by existing calculations of J/ψ recombination for transverse momenta p_{T}≳4  GeV. We revisit these calculations in two main aspects. Employing the resonance recombination model, we implement distribution functions of charm quarks transported through the quark-gluon plasma using state-of-the-art Langevin simulations and account for the space-momentum correlations of the diffusing charm and anticharm quarks in a hydrodynamically expanding fireball. This extends the relevance of the recombination processes to substantially larger momenta than before. We also revisit the suppression of primordially produced J/ψ's by propagating them through the same hydrodynamic medium, leading to a marked increase of their v_{2} over previous estimates. Combining these developments into a calculation of the p_{T}-dependent nuclear modification factor and v_{2} of inclusive J/ψ production in semicentral Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC, we find a good description of the experimental results by the ALICE Collaboration. Our results thus resolve the abovementioned v_{2} puzzle and imply the relevance of recombination processes for p_{T}'s of up to ∼8  GeV.

    Abstract Every year, around 14 million people become homeless worldwide due to natural disasters. Providing temporary housing for the affected people is considered a complex task as it is affected by numerous factors such as socioeconomic, logistics, and community characteristics of the region. Acknowledging and creating a balance between these needs by the agencies or contractors who provide accommodations to post-disaster victims is one of the main challenges that need to be addressed. Although many research efforts have been made regarding studying the factors, there is a lack of reviewing these factors in detail and how they can affect each other. This review paper studies the factors affecting the building process of temporary housings. It highlights the type and frequency of the factors that have been studied by different researchers and agencies in the past 20 years (1999-2019). The resources used for this research were "Academic Search Premier" and "Engineering Village" databases, as well as the gray literature. It also provides a comprehensive review of research and reports that have studied the combination of these factors and how they have covered many of them.

    Abstract How are we to understand the complexities of prenatal genetic testing across social and cultural worlds? Availability and uptake of this biotechnology is variable, deeply influenced not only by national frameworks but also by local regimes of value. We argue that these intersections of genetic testing and local cultural worlds must be understood as part of broader 'reproductive imaginaries', including everything from kinship, pregnancy and gender norms to children's links to specific community norms of national and cultural futures. In the USA, preconceptual/prenatal genetic testing is widely available, driven by a neoliberal market-based model of consumer choice. In contrast, such tests are far more restricted by bioethical laws and medical regulations in France. This article will examine how particular cultural and religious communities - primarily American orthodox Jewish communities - shape prenatal genetic testing in their own distinct ways.

    Abstract Understanding the hadronization of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) remains a challenging problem in the study of strong-interaction matter as produced in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions (URHICs). The large mass of heavy quarks renders them excellent tracers of the color neutralization process of the QGP when they convert into various heavy-flavor (HF) hadrons. We develop a 4-momentum conserving recombination model for HF mesons and baryons that recovers the thermal and chemical equilibrium limits and accounts for space-momentum correlations (SMCs) of heavy quarks with partons of the hydrodynamically expanding QGP, thereby resolving a long-standing problem in quark coalescence models. The SMCs enhance the recombination of fast-moving heavy quarks with high-flow thermal quarks in the outer regions of the fireball. We also improve the hadrochemistry with "missing" charm-baryon states, previously found to describe the large Λ_{c}/D^{0} ratio observed in proton-proton collisions. Both SMCs and hadrochemistry, as part of our HF hydro-Langevin-recombination model for the strongly coupled QGP, importantly figure in the description of recent data for the Λ_{c}/D^{0} ratio and D-meson elliptic flow in URHICs.
