Project Diane: Women's Foundation of Greater Kansas City Final Report
Women's Foundation partnered with the University of Kansas researchers and included a large-scale survey and analyzed 24 focus groups with 198 Special Forces men and women in order to identify potential barriers and benefits to female integration in Special Forces. The findings can also be applied in other male-dominated professions in the civilian workforce
Suitability of Mobile Communication Techniques for the Business Processes of Intervention Forces
Intervention forces are special, often state-run organizations that are in charge of surveillance and intervention tasks. Examples are police, medical emergency services, civil defense, and security firms. From a business processes view, intervention forces are a subset of organizations whose operational business is mobile. The contribution analyzes the potentials and limits of mobile business processes for intervention forces. It proposes first approaches in the direction of a fully-integrated process chain for these organizations with regard to the special rules of mobile business.
Meson-like Baryons and the Spin-Orbit Puzzle
I describe a special class of meson-like \Lambda_Q excited states and present
evidence supporting the similarity of their spin-independent spectra to those
of mesons. I then examine spin-dependent forces in these baryons, showing that
predicted effects of spin-orbit forces are small for them for the same reason
they are small for the analogous mesons: a fortuitous cancellation between
large spin-orbit forces due to one-gluon-exchange and equally large inverted
spin-orbit forces due to Thomas precession in the confining potential. In
addition to eliminating the baryon spin-orbit puzzle in these states, this
solution provides a new perspective on spin-orbit forces in all baryons.Comment: 24 pages, 4 figure
