20 Jahre in die Zukunft: Eine Zeitreise zu Trends und Entwicklungen auf dem Ökomarkt
Die vorgestellte Untersuchung ist ein kleiner Teil des Forschungsprojektes OMIaRD (Organic Marketing Initiatives and Rural Development), das innerhalb des fünften Rahmenprogramms der EU für Forschung und technologische Entwicklung finanziert wird. Teams von Universitäten und Instituten aus Großbritannien, Italien, Frankreich, der Schweiz, Finnland, Dänemark, Österreich und Deutschland bilden die Projektgruppe. Untersucht werden Aspekte der Vermarktung von Öko-Lebensmitteln in Europa. Der Schwerpunkt liegt hierbei auf Entwicklungspotentialen des ländlichen Raumes. OMIaRD verbindet zwei politische Hauptziele der EU: “nachhaltige Landwirtschaft” und “ländliche Entwicklung”. Abgeleitet werden praktische Vorschläge für Marketing- Initiativen und Daten zur Steuerung der Aktivitäten der Öffentlichen Verwaltungen im Bereich der Entwicklung des Ökomarkts als auch der Regionalentwicklung. Die Aufgabe des Teams der HAW Hamburg ist die europaweite Koordination und nationale Durchführung von Gruppendiskussionen zu Trends und Entwicklungen des Verbraucherverhaltens in Bezug auf Öko-Lebensmittel.
Die Teilnehmer prognostizieren der 'Öko-Welt' keinen kühnen Aufbruch zu neuen Ufern, sondern einen mühsamen, steinigen Weg, allerdings mit leichtem Aufwärtstrend. Denn: Öko kann nicht schneller wachsen, als sich Verbraucher ändern
The H1 Forward Proton Spectrometer at HERA
The forward proton spectrometer is part of the H1 detector at the HERA
collider. Protons with energies above 500 GeV and polar angles below 1 mrad can
be detected by this spectrometer. The main detector components are
scintillating fiber detectors read out by position-sensitive photo-multipliers.
These detectors are housed in so-called Roman Pots which allow them to be moved
close to the circulating proton beam. Four Roman Pot stations are located at
distances between 60 m and 90 m from the interaction point.Comment: 20 pages, 10 figures, submitted to Nucl.Instr.and Method
Prototype design of a timing and fast control system in the CBM experiment
The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment is designed to handle interaction rates of up to 10 MHz and up to 1 TB/s of raw data generated. With triggerless streaming data acquisition in the experiment and beam intensity fluctuations, it is expected that occasional data bursts will surpass bandwidth capabilities of the Data Acquisition System (DAQ) system. In order to preserve integrity of event data, the bandwidth of DAQ must be throttled in an organised way with minimum information loss. The Timing and Fast Control (TFC) system provides a latency-optimised datapath for throttling commands and distributes a system clock together with a global timestamp. This paper describes a prototype design of the system with focus on synchronisation and its evaluation

SUSY parameter determination at the LHC using cross sections and kinematic edges
We study the determination of supersymmetric parameters at the LHC from a
global fit including cross sections and edges of kinematic distributions. For
illustration, we focus on a minimal supergravity scenario and discuss how well
it can be constrained at the LHC operating at 7 and 14 TeV collision energy,
respectively. We find that the inclusion of cross sections greatly improves the
accuracy of the SUSY parameter determination, and allows to reliably extract
model parameters even in the initial phase of LHC data taking with 7 TeV
collision energy and 1/fb integrated luminosity. Moreover, cross section
information may be essential to study more general scenarios, such as those
with non-universal gaugino masses, and distinguish them from minimal,
universal, models.Comment: 22 pages, 8 figure
QCD Coherence and the Top Quark Asymmetry
Coherent QCD radiation in the hadroproduction of top quark pairs leads to a
forward--backward asymmetry that grows more negative with increasing transverse
momentum of the pair. This feature is present in Monte Carlo event generators
with coherent parton showering, even though the production process is treated
at leading order and has no intrinsic asymmetry before showering. In addition,
depending on the treatment of recoils, showering can produce a positive
contribution to the inclusive asymmetry. We explain the origin of these
features, compare them in fixed-order calculations and the Herwig++, Pythia and
Sherpa event generators, and discuss their implications.Comment: 28 pages, 11 figures, 2 table
Low Q^2 Jet Production at HERA and Virtual Photon Structure
The transition between photoproduction and deep-inelastic scattering is
investigated in jet production at the HERA ep collider, using data collected by
the H1 experiment. Measurements of the differential inclusive jet
cross-sections dsigep/dEt* and dsigmep/deta*, where Et* and eta* are the
transverse energy and the pseudorapidity of the jets in the virtual
photon-proton centre of mass frame, are presented for 0 < Q2 < 49 GeV2 and 0.3
< y < 0.6. The interpretation of the results in terms of the structure of the
virtual photon is discussed. The data are best described by QCD calculations
which include a partonic structure of the virtual photon that evolves with Q2.Comment: 20 pages, 5 Figure
Hadron Production in Diffractive Deep-Inelastic Scattering
Characteristics of hadron production in diffractive deep-inelastic
positron-proton scattering are studied using data collected in 1994 by the H1
experiment at HERA. The following distributions are measured in the
centre-of-mass frame of the photon dissociation system: the hadronic energy
flow, the Feynman-x (x_F) variable for charged particles, the squared
transverse momentum of charged particles (p_T^{*2}), and the mean p_T^{*2} as a
function of x_F. These distributions are compared with results in the gamma^* p
centre-of-mass frame from inclusive deep-inelastic scattering in the
fixed-target experiment EMC, and also with the predictions of several Monte
Carlo calculations. The data are consistent with a picture in which the
partonic structure of the diffractive exchange is dominated at low Q^2 by hard
gluons.Comment: 16 pages, 6 figures, submitted to Phys. Lett.
