Thin-Film Growth and Oxidation of Surfaces Under Relevant Pressure Conditions

The growth of oxides and thin films is important in a wide range of applications, including coating technology, production of solar cell materials, and formation of dielectric layers in the semiconductor industry. These growth processes necessitate the interaction of a solid surface with a gas/vapor or liquid phase. The chemical processes that take place during the interaction of the solid with th

Sharing brand ideologies : A cultural analysis of startup brand failure

The concept of sharing is commonly employed in brand narratives of platform-based start-ups to recruit users. This paper examines sharing as a brand ideology and how it is enacted by companies in the startup phase of business. As the sharing start-ups’ business model is dependent on transaction fees generated on the platforms, traction (i.e. a high volume of users) is critical for success. By anal

Measurement of parity-violating spin asymmetries in W ± production at midrapidity in longitudinally polarized p +p collisions

We present midrapidity measurements from the PHENIX experiment of large parity-violating single-spin asymmetries of high transverse momentum electrons and positrons from W±/Z decays, produced in longitudinally polarized p+p collisions at center of mass energies of s=500 and 510 GeV. These asymmetries allow direct access to the antiquark polarized parton distribution functions due to the parity-vio

Christianity and Crisis : Uses and Abuses of Religion in Modern Europe

The article examines how European narratives of crisis have been related to religion in different eras by different factions and with varying intentions. In the first section, I offer some examples from the interwar era, in which religion was used as part both of a conservative nationalistic narrative of crisis and a progressive liberal one. Secondly, I revisit some of the post-war debates, in whi

Idealism Turned against Itself : From Hegel to Rosenzweig

This article was originally given as a key note at the conference Critique, Protest and Reform (Oslo, 2017), aimed at exploring the rich and complex philosophical, political and religious traditions that the Reformation gave rise to. Within this framework, I consider a philosophical example of this complexity. More specifically, I describe how the anti-Jewish strand of Protestant theology became p
