Julian, the last pagan emperor of the Roman empire, died in war in 363. In the Byzantine (that is, the Eastern Roman) empire, the figure of Julian aroused conflicting reactions: antipathy towards his apostasy but also admiration for his accomplishments, particularly as an author writing in Greek. Julian died young, and his attempt to reinstate paganism was a failure, but, paradoxically, his brief and unsuccessful policy resonated for centuries. This book analyses Julian from the perspectives of Byzantine Culture. The history of his posthumous reputation reveals differences in cultural perspectives and it is most intriguing with regard to the Eastern Roman empire which survived for almost a m...
Der Bauraum im automobilen Scheinwerfer ist stark begrenzt. Daher wäre eine Entkopplung und Zentralisierung der Lichtquelleneinheit vorteilhaft. Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es, die Eigenschaften von Laserstrahlung zu nutzen, um eine effiziente Entkopplung der Lichtquelle vom hochaufgelösten Scheinwerfersystem mit Hilfe von Glasfasertechnologie zu realisieren. Für die Umsetzung dieser Remote-Laser-Lichtquelle werden zwei Ansätze geprüft, welche, aufgrund ihres aktuellen Forschungsstandes, eine unterschiedliche Eignung für eine Anwendung im automobilen Scheinwerfer aufweisen. Zunächst wird ein Pr:YLF Festkörperlaser entwickelt, welcher aus einem einzigen Resonatoraufbau simultan d...
This monograph is devoted to the practice of BIG, a Copenhagen-based group of architects, designers, and thinkers operating within the fields of architecture, urbanism, research, and development.
This 20th volume in the series contains 16 invited reviews and highlight contributions presented during the 2007 International Scientific Conference of the German Astronomical Society on the topic of "Cosmic Matter", held in Würzburg, Germany. The papers published here discuss a wide range of hot topics, including cosmology, high-energy astrophysics, astroparticle physics gravitational waves, extragalactic and stellar astronomy -- together representing the roadmap for astroparticle physics in Europe.
It is a pleasure to present you the proceedings of the 12th International Symposium on Automotive Lighting, which takes place in Darmstadt on September 25-27, 2017. This conference is the document of a series of successful conferences since the first PAL-conference in 1995 and shows the latest innovative potentials of the automotive industry in the application of lighting technologies.
