Business Model of Sustainable Robo-Advisors: Empirical Insights for Practical Implementation
The given research paper examines the characteristics of German private investors regarding the probability of using robo-advisory-services. The used data set was gathered for this purpose (N = 305) to address the research question by using a logistic regression approach. The presented logit regression model results indicate that the awareness of sustainable aspects make a significant difference in the probability of using a sustainable robo-service. Additionally, our findings show that being male and cost-aware are positively associated with the use of a sustainable robo-advisor. Furthermore, the probability of use is 1.53 times higher among young and experienced investors. The findings in this paper provide relevant research findings for banks, asset managers, FinTechs, policy makers and financial practitioners to increase the adoption rate of robo-advice by introducing a sustainable offering
Sinn - Teilhabe - Lebensbejahung: das MĂŒnchner Modell der Biografiearbeit; eine pĂ€dagogische Handlungskonzeption
Das in diesem Beitrag beschriebene "MĂŒnchner Modell der Biografiearbeit" ist im Rahmen der Persönlichkeitsbildung katholischer Erwachsenenbildung entwickelt worden. Der Erfolg in der Anwendung hat zu unterschiedlichen Angeboten der Weiterbildung gefĂŒhrt, und die Anwendungsfelder haben sich auf andere Bereiche wie Ehe-, Familien-, Lebensberatung; Arbeit mit Migrant/ -innen; Familienhilfe; offene Altenarbeit, Pastoral u.a. erweitert. Heute stellt das Modell eine Handlungskonzeption dar, die die aktuelle gesellschaftliche Wirklichkeit (Pluralismus, Individualismus) aufgreift und in der professionellen Beziehungsarbeit unterschiedlicher beruflicher Felder einzusetzen ist

Josephson effect in a microbridge
We report DC Josephson effects observed in a microbridge prepared from an
individual crystalline growth domain of thin film. Josephson effects
were observed by periodic voltage modulations under external magnetic field
with the expected periodicity and by the temperature dependence
of the Josephson critical current . The shape of was
found to be asymmetric, as it is expected for microbridges. The dependence
follows the Ambegaokar-Baratoff relation, which is unexpected for
microbridges. Features in the dynamical resistance curves were attributed to
the periodic motion of Abricosov vortices within the microbridge.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figures, submitted to Physica
A Tunable Strain Sensor Using Nanogranular Metals
This paper introduces a new methodology for the fabrication of strain-sensor elements for MEMS and NEMS applications based on the tunneling effect in nano-granular metals. The strain-sensor elements are prepared by the maskless lithography technique of focused electron-beam-induced deposition (FEBID) employing the precursor trimethylmethylcyclopentadienyl platinum [MeCpPt(Me)3]. We use a cantilever-based deflection technique to determine the sensitivity (gauge factor) of the sensor element. We find that its sensitivity depends on the electrical conductivity and can be continuously tuned, either by the thickness of the deposit or by electron-beam irradiation leading to a distinct maximum in the sensitivity. This maximum finds a theoretical rationale in recent advances in the understanding of electronic charge transport in nano-granular metals
