The wide and increasing range of screen sizes between Android devices makes consumers use them very differently. Large devices (like televisions) are more suitable to view content and smaller devices (like smart watches) are to be used more as a quick controller of the main application. Distributed user interfaces is the concept of utilizing several of these de- vices in one application, so that e
The main aim of the current study was to explore the association between self-leadership strategies and organisational commitment dimensions whilst focusing on work arrangement flexibility. The final study sample included 102 employees that worked in various work arrangements that differed in degree of flexibility (i.e., office, remote, hybrid by personal choice, or hybrid by company policy). The
Cryptochromes have been suggested to be the primary magnetoreceptor molecules underlying light-dependent magnetic compass detection in migratory birds. Here we review and evaluate (i) what is known about these candidate magnetoreceptor molecules, (ii) what characteristics cryptochrome molecules must fulfil to possibly underlie light-dependent, radical pair based magnetoreception, (iii) what eviden
Low-mass dwarf galaxies are expected to reside within dark matter haloes that have a pristine, ‘cuspy’ density profile within their stellar half-light radii. This is because they form too few stars to significantly drive dark matter heating through supernova-driven outflows. Here, we study such simulated faint systems (104 ≤ M* ≤ 2 × 106 M) drawn from high-resolution (3 pc) cosmological simulation
We introduce a new method to calculate dark matter halo density profiles from simulations. Each particle is ‘smeared’ over its orbit to obtain a dynamical profile that is averaged over a dynamical time, in contrast to the traditional approach of binning particles based on their instantaneous positions. The dynamical and binned profiles are in good agreement, with the dynamical approach showing a s
Web 2.0 is a debatable term and draws much argument. In spite of one’s opinion towards the term, Web 2.0 tools such as blogs, wikis, podcasts and RSS feeds are enormously used in learning environments. In this sense, the overall purpose of this research was to investigate potential of using different Web 2.0 tools in collaborative learning as well as their advantage. Four interviews have been cond
Web breaks in the dryer section of a paper machine cause loss of production and quality problems. After a web break, the steam pressure in the cylinders must be reduced to avoid overheating. The goal of this project is to determine optimal steam pressure trajectories during web breaks, so that the production is restarted with the same drying properties of the cylinder as before the break. A detail
The Virus-X-Viral Metagenomics for Innovation Value-project was a scientific expedition to explore and exploit uncharted territory of genetic diversity in extreme natural environments such as geothermal hot springs and deep-sea ocean ecosystems. Specifically, the project was set to analyse and exploit viral metagenomes with the ultimate goal of developing new gene products with high innovation val
Using a Laclauian discourse approach this paper challenges the hegemony of articulations framing creativity as good, necessary, and as a source of valuable outcomes for organizations and individuals. Instead, this paper argues that creativity has a ‘dark side’, referring to that which is harmful and may result in pain, loss or suffering. We analyze and expose the hegemonic positivity of the creati
Empathy is fundamental to social cognition and societal values. Empathy is theorized as having both the ability as well as the disposition to imagine the content of other people's minds. We tested whether the notorious low empathy in dark personalities (Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and narcissism; the Dark Triad) is best characterized by a lack of capacity (ability) or lack of disposition (trait
This study has focused on how Web 2.0 tools may affect the company collaboration process. Those tools which are used internally by organizations for messaging, chatting, online meetings, weekly reports, online video lecture base, bugs/error reporting, working monthly hours reporting etc. are studied. The employees have been studying organizations from the perspective of collaboration. We have inte
In this study the relationship between spa visiting and health aspects was investigated. An Internet survey was developed and out of 152 participants a group of 54 non-spa visitors who had never been to a spa before were compared to a group of 38 spa visitors who frequently had attended a spa. The results showed that spa visitors had significantly higher levels of well-being and nature connectedne

Due to a vanishing dipole moment, radial breathing modes in small flat plasmonic nanoparticles do not couple to light and have to be probed with a near-field source, as in electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS). With increasing particle size, retardation gives rise to light coupling, enabling probing breathing modes optically or by cathodoluminescence (CL). Here, we investigate single silver nan
It was previously found that the density profile of dark matter halos is well-fit by a universal, smooth function over a vast range of masses and redshifts, named the Navarro-Frenk-White (NFW) profile after its discoverers. Despite its impressive goodness of fit, the NFW model remains an approximation of the density profile of realistic halos. In the literature, this model has been used for fittin
Research in personality psychology has shown that individuals choose careers led by their personality. More specifically, dark personality traits seem to drive people towards specific environments—with detrimental effects in the workplace. This study investigated whether individuals who selectively choose a job in particular organizations possess dispositions associated with behaving abusively and
Adopting the hypothesis about the exact cancellation of vacuum condensates contributions to the ground state energy in particle physics to the leading order in graviton-mediated interactions, we argue that the observable cosmological constant can be dynamically induced by an uncompensated quantum gravity correction to them after the QCD phase transition epoch. To start with, we demonstrate a possi
Two-dimensional semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides are promising materials for optoelectronic applications due to their strongly bound excitons. While bright excitons have been thoroughly scrutinized, dark excitons have been much less investigated, as they are not directly observable with far-field spectroscopy. However, with their nonzero momenta, dark excitons are significant for ap
Due to the on-going discussion regarding the OECD/G20 BEPS project and its particular actions it is an important task for the EU legislator to establish a reasonable and functional legal framework in order to ensure a certain degree of uniformity of Anti-BEPS measures within the European Union. In doing so, the protagonists must respect the boundaries set to domestic law as well as to measures of
