Self-determination and persistence in a real-life setting: Toward a motivational model of high school dropout.
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,
, 1997
"... The purpose of this study was to propose and test a motivational model of high school dropout. The model posits that teachers, parents, and the school administration's behaviors toward students influence students' perceptions of competence and autonomy. The less autonomy supportive the so ..."

"... mcmxciv This thesis deals with combinatorics in connection with Coxeter groups, finitely generated but not necessarily finite. The representation theory of groups as nonsingular matrices over a field is of immense theoretical importance, but also basic for computational group theory, where the group ..."
Abstract

the group elements are data structures in a computer. Matrices are unnecessarily large structures, and part of this thesis is concerned with small and efficient representations of a large class of Coxeter groups (including most Coxeter groups that anyone ever payed any attention to.)

33ND INTERNATIONAL COSMIC RAY CONFERENCE, RIO DE JANEIRO 2013 THE ASTROPARTICLE PHYSICS CONFERENCE TA
"... Abstract: The Telescope Array experiment has collected 5 years of data and accumulated the largest to date UHECR data set in the Northern hemisphere. We make use of this data set to search for large- and small-scale anisotropy of UHECR. We begin by testing the previously existing claims of anisotrop ..."

. We also present the results of the search for point-like sources of neutral particles and for a large-scale anisotropy at energies around 1 EeV. While low-energy sets are compatible with isotropy, the highest-energy set with E> 57 EeV shows deviations from isotropy in most of the tests at 2−3σ C

Universität Oldenburg, D-26111 OldenburgClimate Policy with Technology Transfers and Permit Trading
, 2011
"... In this paper, we analyze technology transfers (TT) and tradable emission rights, which are core issues of the ongoing climate negotiations. Subsidizing TT leads to the adoption of better abatement technologies in developing countries, thereby reducing the international permit price. This is benefic ..."

Nonlinear eects in two-layer large-amplitude
, 1999
"... Baroclinic large-amplitude geostrophic (LAG) models, which assume a leading-order geostrophic balance but allow for large-amplitude isopycnal deflections, provide a suitable framework to model the large-amplitude motions exhibited in frontal regions. The qualitative dynamical characterization of LAG ..."

COSMOLOGICAL MODELS OF MODIFIED GRAVITY
, 2013
"... The recent discovery of dark energy has prompted an investigation of ways in which the accelerated expansion of the universe can be realized. In this dissertation, we present two separate projects related to dark energy. The first project analyzes a class of braneworld models in which multiple brane ..."
Abstract
- Add to MetaCart
branes float in a five-dimensional anti-de Sitter bulk, while the second investigates a class of dark energy models from an effective field theory perspective. Investigations of models including extra dimensions have led to modifications of gravity involving a number of interesting features

"... We examine the late time behavior of the Bunch-Davies wavefunction for interacting light fields in a de Sitter background. We use perturbative techniques developed in the framework of AdS/CFT, and analytically continue to compute tree and loop level contributions to the Bunch-Davies wavefunction. We ..."
