Domain names in the Czech legal system

Domain names in the Czech legal system The aim of this work is to introduce readers to the topic of domain names themselves with a necessary technical overlap, their legal regulation in the Czech legal framework, including a general analysis of particular legal institutes used for their protection (namely trademarks, unfair competition, name of an individual and name of a legal entity), and finally to outline the ways and development of the settlement of disputes arising from them before the judicial and extrajudicial bodies. The first chapter of the thesis covers the concept of domain names as such from a technical point of view. There is described the domain name function in the Internet and the domain name system as well, consisting of top level domains of different types with their specifics. Consequently are there through domain name registration covered domain name disputes in a global context, including the individual causes (types) of these disputes, and finally concludes with the description of a specific form of alternative dispute resolution called UDRP. The second, most extensive chapter is dedicated to the legal regulation of domain names in the Czech legal framework itself. The chapter begins with theoretical concept of domain names from the legal point of view and its historical..

Etude expérimentale et théorique des lasers X pompés par une impulsion laser ultra-brève (pompage transitoire des ions d'argent nickeloïde)

Dans cette thèse nous étudions expérimentalement et théoriquement un nouveau type de lasers X, dits " collisionnels transitoires ". Ces lasers sont pompés par la combinaison d'une impulsion laser 'longue' (-500 ps) et d'une impulsion courte ( 1 ps ou moins). Ce schéma permet de réduire drastiquement l'énergie nécessaire pour la création du milieu amplificateur et donc de diminuer le laser de pompe à l'échelle " table-top ". Notre travail avait pour but notamment de (1) développer et créer en routine un laser transitoire à 13.9 nm (transition 4d-4p dans l'argent nickeloïde) ; (2) caractériser en détail, temporellement et spatialement, le faisceau émis (3) démontrer son potentiel pour des applications. Trois campagnes expérimentales ont été effectuées sur trois installations de laser de puissance. Dans la première expérience, une amélioration partielle des caractéristiques du faisceau du laser X à l'argent nickeloïde, en particulier sa divergence horizontale, a été obtenue par un pompage à deux couleurs, dans lequel l'impulsion longue est doublée en fréquence (2w). Une nouvelle raie laser, émise à 16 nm, a été observée pour la première fois et a été attribuée à une transition 4f-4d dans l'argent nickeloïde. Nous avons observé que l'irradiation par une onde progressive a réduit considérablement la durée de l'impulsion laser X, ce qui est expliqué par notre modèle théorique. Dans l'expérience suivante une durée du laser transitoire à 13.9 nm de 1.9 ps a été mesurée. C'est l'impulsion laser X la plus brève jamais démontrée. Ces résultats ont été expliqués par notre modèle et une simulation numérique par le code EHYBRID. Enfin, dans la troisième expérience le faisceau laser X a été envoyé dans un interféromètre à bi-miroir de Fresnel et des franges d'un bon contraste ont été obtenues. Ces résultats préliminaires constituent un premier pas vers des applications interférometriques avec une resolution ps.The objective of this thesis was to investigate both experimentally and theoretically a new type of X-ray lasers, the so-called transient collisional X-ray lasers. These lasers are pumped by a combination of a 'long' (500 ps) and a 'short' (- 1 ps or less) driving laser pulses. This pumping scheme reduces dramatically the energy required to create the amplifying medium and hence allows to reduce the scale of the X-ray laser driver to a "table-top" class. Our work was mainly devoted to (1) the development and routine generation of a transient X-ray laser, emitting at 13.9 nm (4d-4p transition in Ni-like Ag); (2) the detailed spatial and temporal characterisation of the emitted beam, and (3) a demonstration of its potential for applications. Three experimental campaigns were carried out at three different high-power laser facilities. In the first experiment, a partial improvement of the Ni-like silver X-ray laser beam characteristics, especially its horizontal divergence, was obtained by using a "two-colour" irradiation, in which the long pulse is frequency-doubled (2w). A new lasing line, emitted at 16 nm, was observed for the first time and attributed to a 4f-4d transition in Ni-like silver. When a travelling-wave irradiation was applied, a significant shortening of the X-ray laser pulse duration was demonstrated and explained by our model. In a subsequent experiment using a high-resolution streak camera, the duration of the 13.9 nm transient X-ray laser was measured to be of 1.9 ps. This is the shortest X-ray laser pulse ever demonstrated to-date. The results obtained were compared to analytical and quasi-analytical model calculations, as well as to a numerical simulation using a 1.5D hydrocode. Finally in the third experiment, the X-ray laser beam was sent to a Fresnel bi-mirror interferometer and fringes with a good visibility were obtained. These preliminary results represent the first step towards interferometric applications with ps resolution.ORSAY-PARIS 11-BU Sciences (914712101) / SudocSudocFranceF

Rhesus-minus phenotype as a predictor of sexual desire and behavior, wellbeing, mental health, and fecundity.

BackgroundSince its discovery in the 1930s, the effects of Rh phenotype on human health and wellbeing, with the exception of the effects of Rh-negativity of a mother on the risk of hemolytic anemia of Rh-positive children, has only rarely been studied. In the last few years, however, several studies have shown that Rh-negative subjects have worse health and performance in certain tests than their Rh-positive peers. Nothing is known about the effect of Rh phenotype on the quality of life of subjects as measured by a standard instrument.MethodsWe hereby analyzed the data of 1768 male (24% Rh-negative) and 3759 female participants (23% Rh-negative) of an anonymous internet study using the partial Kendall test with the age and the population of the hometown of subjects controlled.ResultsThe results showed that the Rh-negative women, but not men, scored worse in wellbeing measured with the WHO-BREFF. The Rh-negative men scored worse in mental health-related variables and in their reported economic situation and the Rh-negative women scored better in physical health-related variables. Both the Rh-negative men and women reported higher sexual activity than their Rh-positive peers.ConclusionsThe effects of the Rh phenotype were significant after the correction for multiple tests. However, they were usually weaker and less numerous than those of smoking, consuming alcohol, and high body mass index, which were used as a sort of internal control

Calculation of an Average Vehicle’s Sideways Acceleration on Small Roundabouts

The calculation of the average sideways acceleration, based on speed and angular velocity on small roundabouts for a vehicle of up to 3.5 t gross vehicle mass, is described in this paper. Calculations of the turning radius are derived from angular velocity and an automatic selection of events, based on the lateral acceleration of the coefficient of variation within a defined time window. The calculation of the turning radius based on speed and angular velocity yields almost identical results to the calculation of the turning radius by the three-point method using GPS coordinates, as described in previous research. This means that the calculation of the turning radius, derived from the speed of GNSS/INS dual-antenna sensor and gyroscope data, yields similar results to those from the computation of the turning radius derived from the coordinates of a GNSS/INS dual-antenna sensor. The research results can be used in the development of sensors to improve road safety
