Quintessence Cosmology
… Fluktuationen her. Im Falle von 'tracking quintessence' gibt es keine zus\"atzliche Isocurvature Mode durch das Quintessenz Feld. Weiterhin diskutieren wir den Einfluss von 'fr\"uher Quintessenz' auf das CMB Spektrum und ver\-gleichen dies mit den Daten des WMAP Satelliten. Schliesslich …

Fluctuations in a Quintessence Universe
Wir diskutieren die Entwicklung und Effekte von Quintessenzfluktuationen in einem FRW und inflationaearem Universum. Nachdem wir die Prinzipien der kosmologischen Stoeorungstheorie eingefuehrt haben, geben wir Entwicklungsgleichungen fuer metrische, Materie- und Quintessenzfluktuationen an. Wir …

Theory and phenomenology of quintessence
We investigate cosmological models containing quintessence. Quintessence is a hypothetical form of energy distributed almost homogeneously throughout the Universe. We calculate cosmological perturbations and cosmic microwave background anisotropies using gauge-invariant variables. For many models, …

Obstacles to realizing Quintessence from String Theory
… master thesis we analyze the construction of quintessence models by flux compactification of type IIB string theory. We focus on Kähler moduli as candidates for the quintessence field and briefly comment on other approaches. The large hierarchies required for simultaneously describing …

Quintessence of faith: A mosque for Khayelitsha
Muhammad sat shivering as he told his wife about the revelation he had received. It was his habit to retreat to the Cave of Hira where he would meditate for days. It was on one of such meditations that the angel Gabriel came to him with Divine Revelation. This was the beginning of many more …

A disformally coupled quintessence mimicking the ΛCDM background
… thesis will be using a scalar field, namely the quintessence. Our studied cosmological model assumes that the quintessence is coupled with a generic fluid. It also assumes a theory of gravity with two geometries. The gravitational geometry describes the curvature of space-time while the physical …

Quintessence of Dust: Cognitive Neuroscience and an Actor's Process
<p>This thesis examines theories provided by cognitive neuroscience and applies them to an actor’s process. In particular, this research addresses the subjectivity and intentionality of our consciousness and special as-if states of consciousness, supported by the work of John Searle and Antonio …

A study of chameleon-photon mixing from pulsars
… thus dark energy is more generally modelled as a quintessence scalar field rolling down a flat potential.

ELECTRONIC WORD-OF-MOUTH: APPLICATIONS IN PRODUCT RECOMMENDATION AND CRISIS INFORMATION DISSEMINATION
… to social awareness, which is the quintessence of this thesis. It contains three essays. The first one aims to study how eWOM, in the form of user comments, is beneficial in recommendations of high-scale products like mobile applications. The other two essays investigate the role of …

How Visual Narrative Can Elevate Immigrant Food
… of belonging. For immigrant groups, Food is the quintessence of human existence, which is also political.</p> <p>In the post-pandemic period, the resumption of social order and the emphasis on immigrant groups also need to be achieved through visual narratives. I want to acknowledge people the …

Three tellings, four models and differing perceptions : the contruction of female sexuality in the Rāmāyaṇa
… Rama, the king of Ayodhya, is presented as the quintessence of ethical action. Although Sita, his wife, has been singled out as the representation of the pure woman, the Ramayan[dotbelow]a contains many characters that conform to or reject this notion of gender and sexuality. In this manner, …

The Way to True Excellence: The Spirituality of Samuel Pearce
… what extent Pearce’s spirituality captures the quintessence of late eighteenth-century Baptist spirituality.

Virginia Gravity Flow Winery: A Transformative Journey
… The winery at the heart of this thesis is the quintessence of these ideals. The architecture of this winery embraces the steps of gravity flow winemaking, which aims to preserve the integrity of the grapes by utilizing gravity instead of electric pumps. The design seeks to make these steps …

Data-Driven Deep Learning Methods for Physically-Based Simulations
… Machine Learning and Deep Neural Networks (the quintessence of Deep Learning). A numerical approach characterizes this new formalization of the learning problem; furthermore, we describe how the learning techniques evolved in history to reach the current state of the art. We test different kinds …

In Search of Marketing Management : A Study of Managing in Marketing.
… strands and threads of what is argued to be the quintessence of managerial behaviour, the forms and characteristics of organizational commitments, the character of their crafting and conducing, and the properties of the so-emerged commitment webs. The 'content' of the subject managers' work is …

Simulations of dark energy cosmologies
… spectrum in redshift space in $\Lambda$CDM and quintessence dark energy models and test predictions for the form of the redshift space distortions. An improved model for the redshift space power spectrum, including the non-linear velocity divergence power spectrum, is presented. We have found a …

Cosmological dynamics of exponential gravity
… acceleration problem. We then present the quintessence model, which as been proposed to address the coincidence and the magnitude problems. We conclude this chapter by a detailed discussion of the higher order theories of gravity with a particular we focus on f(R)-gravity, which is based on …

Engaging and Evading the Bard: Shakespeare, Nationalism, and British Theatrical Modernism, 1900-1964
… political aesthetic (set forth in The Quintessence of Ibsenism) motivates his condemnation of "Bardolatry" throughout his career, most notably in Caesar and Cleopatra. In stark contrast to Shakespeare, a high-church, conservative Christian religiosity and ideological investment in …

Types in Transition: The Evolution of the Working Man in New Hollywood Cinema
… terms, Types in Transition argues that the quintessence of New Hollywood cinema can be found in its treatment of character types. The notion of ‘types’ had been acknowledged in early film scholarship but not fully confronted until critics began to deconstruct them right as New Hollywood …
