Rezeptive Mehrsprachigkeit ist eine der jüngsten Forderungen der EU-Kommission zum Erreichen einer realistischen Mehrsprachigkeit in Europa. Die maximalistischen Forderungen nach Perfektion in allen sprachlichen Kompetenzen haben sich in den nationalen Unterrichtswesen als illusionär erwiesen, da diese nirgendwo von statistisch nachvollziehbarem Erfolg gekrönt sind. Die sprachliche Diversität im multilingualen Europa findet sich nicht in der Realität der Bildungssysteme wieder. Zwar verfügen heute europaweit 26 % der Europäer über eine zweite und 8% über eine dritte Fremdsprache, in den einzelnen Ländern sieht es jedoch oft desolat aus. Während in den kleineren Unionsländern kaum jemand als nur monolingual gilt (Luxemburg 2%) ist die Krankheit der Einsprachigkeit in den großen EU-Staaten seuchenhaft verbreitet, etwa Großbritannien mit 66%. Dies hat in den neunziger Jahren in der Kommission zu den Postulaten geführt, die sich die Forschergruppe EuroCom als Programm gesetzt hat, nämlich Mehrsprachigkeit über den Einstieg in rezeptive Kompetenzen modularisiert und kognitiv über Transferbasen innerhalb von Sprachfamilien zu erreichen. EuroCom steht dabei als Kürzel für Eurocomprehension, ein Akronym für Europäische Interkomprehension in den drei großen Sprachengruppen Europas, der romanischen, slawischen und germanischen. Die Beschränkung auf rezeptive Kompetenzen ist dabei nur ein methodisches Ausgangsprinzip, das es ermöglicht, Mehrsprachigkeit besonders schnell über das Leseverständnis zu erreichen und modularisiert auf Hörverständnis und aktive Sprechkompetenz sukzessiv auszuweiten. Die Methode EuroCom arbeitet über die Aktivierung intralingualen Wissens mit linguistischem Transfermaterial in nahverwandten Sprachen, das als kognitives Potential den Erschließungsprozess optimiert und in kürzester Zeit ein Lese- und Hörverstehen in einer ganzen Sprachenfamilie erreichbar macht. ...
Accelerating cavities exchange HOM power through interconnecting beam pipes in case of signal frequencies above the cut-off of their propagating waveguide modes. This may lead either to improved HOM damping or - in the case most severe - to unwanted phase coherence of fields to the beam. Therefore the knowledge of the scattering properties of a cavity as a line element is needed to analyse all kinds of RF cavity-cavity interaction. Since there is a lack of measurement tools capable to provide a multidimensional scattering matrix at a given frequency point, we have been developing a method for this purpose. It uses a set of 2-port S-parameters of the device under test, embedded in a number of geometrically different RF environments. The application of the method is demonstrated with copper models of TESLA cavities.
Für Romanisten ist Interkomprehension seit der Begründung ihrer Disziplin ein Anliegen, für romanischsprachige Menschen ist sie meist ein persönliches Erlebnis der partiellen Entdeckung, vor 1500 Jahren war sie alltägliche Realität. Es geht um die Fähigkeit, in einer Gruppe von Sprachen, die einen gemeinsamen Ursprung haben, kommunizieren zu können.
Läßt man die Problematik der bei dieser Aussage verwendeten Ausdrücke außer Betracht und schränkt den Blickwinkel auf die Gruppe der romanischen Sprachen ein, so lassen sich eine Reihe von Aussagen über Interkomprehension machen.
Daß zwischen dem sechsten und achten Jahrhundert, also während der protoromanischen Phase, Interkomprehension zwischen entfernten Gegenden des niedergegangen Imperium Romanum möglich war, ist unstrittig, freilich gab es keine außersprachlichen Gründe, die das Faktum Interkomprehension in den Vordergrund hätten rücken können. Die einzig übriggebliebene Zentralmacht Kirche benutzte ihr eigenes Latein. ...
Der sprachfamilienbezogene Erwerb einer L3 bis Lx hat durch die jüngeren sprachpolitischen Forderungen der Europäischen Kommission 1997 entscheidenden Auftrieb erhalten. Im Livre Blanc sur l´éducation et la formation von 1995 bilanziert die Europäische Kommission das Ergebnis der fremdsprachlichen Bemühungen der großen Flächenstaaten der Union als eher kümmerlich und fordert eine Wende. Künftig soll eine Europäische Mehrsprachigkeit drei Perspektiven aufweisen: eine differenzierte Betrachtung von Kompetenzen (rezeptive Mehrsprachigkeit), die Ermöglichung des gezielten Erwerbs von Teilkompetenzen mit modularen Aufbaumöglichkeiten (fachsprachlicher approach zur rezeptiven Lesekompetenz) und das Nutzen der Verwandtschaftsbeziehungen zwischen Sprachen (u.a. romanische Interkomprehensionsforschung). Diese drei Perspektiven werden in dem dreigliedrigen Projekt zur "Eurocomprehension" der Universität Frankfurt zusammengefaßt. Der Frankfurter Beitrag bezieht sich auf die Gruppe der romanischen Sprachen. ...
Der Begriff Eurocomprehension steht für Europäische Interkomprehension in den drei großen Sprachengruppen Europas, der romanischen, slawischen und germanischen. Es geht der Eurocomprehension darum, unter EU-konformen sprachpolitischen Zielsetzungen Mehrsprachigkeit über den Einstieg in rezeptive Kompetenzen modularisiert zu erreichen. Dabei liefert die linguistische Interkomprehensionsforschung die interlingualen Transferbasen zur kognitiven Nutzung von Verwandtschaftsbeziehungen in Sprachgruppen, die eine Mehrsprachigkeitsdidaktik umsetzt. ...
A new method for the determination of S-matrices of devices in multimoded waveguides and first experimental experiences are presented. The theoretical foundations are given. The scattering matrix of a TESLA copper cavity at a frequency above the cut-off of the second waveguide mode has been measured.
Due to the additional need of very short bunches for the FEL operation with the TESLA-machine strong wakefield effects are expected. One third of the total wakefield energy per bunch is radiated into the frequency region above the energy gap of Cooper pairs in superconducting niobium. The energy of the cooper pairs in superconducting niobium at 2 K corresponds to a frequency of 700 GHz. An analytical and experimental estimation for the overall energy loss of the FEL bunch above energy gap is presented. The analytical method is based on a study from R. B. Palmer [1]. The results of the wakefield estimations are used to calculate possible quality factor reduction of the TESLA cavities during FEL operation. Results are presented.
The operation of a Free Electron Laser (FEL) in the ultraviolet or in the X-ray regime requires the acceleration of electron bunches with an rms length of 25 to 50 mikrometer. The wakefields generated by these sub picosecond bunches extend into the frequency range well beyond the threshold for Cooper pair breakup (about 750 GHz) in superconducting niobium at 2 K. It is shown, that the superconducting cavities can indeed be operated with 25 mikrometer bunches without suffering a breakdown of superconductivity (quench), however at the price of a reduced quality factor and an increased heat transfer to the superfluid helium bath. This was first shown by wakefield calculations based on the diffraction model [1]. In the meantime a more conventional method of computing wake fields in the time domain by numerical methods was developed and used for the wakefield calculations [2]. Both methods lead to comparable results: the operation of TESLA with 25 mikrometer bunches is possible but leads to an additional heat load due to the higher order modes (HOMs). Therefore HOM dampers for these high frequencies are under construction [3]. These dampers are located in the beam pipes between the 9-cell cavities. So it is of interest, if there are trapped modes in the cavity due to closed photon orbits. In this paper we investigate the existence of trapped modes and the distribution of heat load over the surface of the TESLA cavity by numerical photon tracking.
The effect of a single HOM-damper cell within a channel of undamped cells is described theoretically using an equivalent circuit model. From this a simple equation can be derived which relates the Q-value of the single damping-cell, the bandwidth of the passband under consideration, and the additional phase shift which is introduced by the damper cell to provide energy flow into the damper cell. This equation immediately shows the limitations of such single cell damping systems. Comparisons with experimental results are shown.
By replacing the irises in an electron linac by a slit one gets a structure capable of focussing/defocussing an electron beam (rf-quadrupoles). Therefore one can think of a combination of rf- and conventional magnetic quadrupoles for transversal focussing in linear-colliders. Furthermore they can meet the demands of BNS-damping without initial energy spread. Considering multibunch-operation of a collider, the long-range wake behaviour of this kind of structure has to be investigated. A three-cell structure has been built and investigated for dipole-type transversal long-range wakes. The experimental results are compared to numerical simulations done with MAFIA.
Mode propagation in an iris type accelerator section loaded with single heavily HOM-damped cells
(1994)
The wakefield effects in accelerator sections for future linear colliders will be reduced either by damping by detuning or by a combination of both. For the DESY/THD linac [1] it is forseen to employ heavily HOM-damped cells to provide a strong coupling to the TE/TM11-dipole passband as well as to the TM/TE11-dipole passband. For our experiments we have used wall-slotted damping cells. This leads to several problems concerning the propagation of fundamental and HOM-modes. Experimental investigations have been done. Results are presented.
To reach high luminosities in future linear colliders short range wakes havea to be controlled in the range of X-band frequencies or higher. Rectangular irises can be used to introduce strong focusing quadrupole-like rf-fields. Even circular irises in iris-loaded accelarator structures have the capability of focusing if the particle velocity differs from phase velocity. Theoretical investigations concerning the focusing strength to be expected are presented. Their applicability for linear colliders is discussed.
A new method for measuring quality factors in cavities is presented. This method is capable of measuring Q-factors in heavily damped as well as in undamped cavities. In addition, the possibility of separating overlapping modes and measuring their Q-factors is provided. Measurements on HOM (higher order mode) damped cavities for the DESY/THD linear collider project are presented
"Eurocomprehension" is the term used to describe European intercomprehension in Europe’s three major language families, the Romance, the Slavic and the Germanic. The aim of eurocomprehension is to achieve multilingualism conforming to EU language policy goals through the entry-point of receptive competence in a modular structure. Linguistic intercomprehension research forms the transfer bases for the cognitive use of relations between the language groups which didactics of multilingualism implement. ...
To preserve the required beam quality in an e+/e- collider it is necessary to have a very precise beam position control at each accelerating cavity. An elegant method to avoid additional length and beam disturbance is the usage of signals from existing HOM-dampers. The magnitude of the displacement is derived from the amplitude of a dipole mode whereas the sign follows from the phase comparison of a dipole and a monopole HOM. To check the performance of the system, a measurement setup has been built with an antenna which can be moved with micrometer resolution to simulate the beam. Furthermore we have developed a signal processing to determine the absolute beam displacement. Measurements on the HOM-damper cell can be done in the frequency domain using a network analyser. Final measurements with the nonlinear time dependent signal processing circuit has to be done with very short electric pulses simulating electron bunches. Thus, we have designed a sub nanosecond pulse generator using a clipping line and the step recovery effect of a diode. The measurement can be done with a resolution of about 10 micrometers. Measurements and numerical calculations concerning the monitor design and the pulse generator are presented.

Zwei Konstruktionsbeispiele für kontinuierlichen und gepulsten Betrieb werden näher ausgeführt.
Aims: Carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) predicts cardiovascular (CVD) events, but the predictive value of CIMT change is debated. We assessed the relation between CIMT change and events in individuals at high cardiovascular risk.
Methods and results: From 31 cohorts with two CIMT scans (total n = 89070) on average 3.6 years apart and clinical follow-up, subcohorts were drawn: (A) individuals with at least 3 cardiovascular risk factors without previous CVD events, (B) individuals with carotid plaques without previous CVD events, and (C) individuals with previous CVD events. Cox regression models were fit to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) of the combined endpoint (myocardial infarction, stroke or vascular death) per standard deviation (SD) of CIMT change, adjusted for CVD risk factors. These HRs were pooled across studies.
In groups A, B and C we observed 3483, 2845 and 1165 endpoint events, respectively. Average common CIMT was 0.79mm (SD 0.16mm), and annual common CIMT change was 0.01mm (SD 0.07mm), both in group A. The pooled HR per SD of annual common CIMT change (0.02 to 0.43mm) was 0.99 (95% confidence interval: 0.95–1.02) in group A, 0.98 (0.93–1.04) in group B, and 0.95 (0.89–1.04) in group C. The HR per SD of common CIMT (average of the first and the second CIMT scan, 0.09 to 0.75mm) was 1.15 (1.07–1.23) in group A, 1.13 (1.05–1.22) in group B, and 1.12 (1.05–1.20) in group C.
Conclusions: We confirm that common CIMT is associated with future CVD events in individuals at high risk. CIMT change does not relate to future event risk in high-risk individuals.
