Zum Verhältnis von Harmonik und Instrumentation ›vor Wagner‹ by Michael Polth

“…Already in compositions from the mid-eighteenth-century, chords can be found whose harmonic function is not just founded by characteristics stemming from the area of tonal categories (type of chords, relation of scale degree, relatedness to a tonal center), but also by such which are based on composers’ decisions regarding instrumentation and dynamics. …”

Residue-resolved insights into the stabilization of therapeutic proteins by excipients: A case study of two monoclonal antibodies with arginine and glutamate by Tobias M. Prass, Patrick Garidel, Lars V. Schäfer, Michaela Blech

“…Here, we describe a combined experimental and computational approach for investigating the effect of protein–excipient interactions on formulation stability, which allows the identification of preferential interaction sites and thus can aid in the selection of excipients to be experimentally screened. Model systems composed of two marketed therapeutic IgG1 monoclonal antibodies with identical Fc domain sequences, trastuzumab and omalizumab, were investigated with commonly used excipients arginine, glutamate, and equimolar arginine/glutamate mixtures. …”

Process-Parameter-Dependent Structural, Electrical, and Optical Properties of Reactive Magnetron Sputtered Ag-Cu-O Films by P. Narayana Reddy, A. Sreedhar, M. Hari Prasad Reddy, S. Uthanna, J. F. Pierson

“…The Ag-Cu-O films formed at room temperature (303 K) and at low oxygen partial pressure of 5 × 10−3 Pa were mixed phase of Ag2Cu2O3 and Ag, while those deposited at 2 × 10−2 Pa were composed of Ag2Cu2O4 and Ag2Cu2O3 phases. The crystallinity of the films formed at oxygen partial pressure of 2 × 10−2 Pa increased with the increase of substrate temperature from 303 to 423 K. …”

From Book to Playlist: How Open-Access Audio Archives are Renewing the Poetry Collection by Abigail Lang

“…Listening closely to two 1972 readings and examining a reading program for a 1941 reading at the YMHA preserved in the Zukofsky archives, I establish that such sources offer valuable insights into the work, expose a series of criteria used by poets to compose their readings, show how a poet can repurpose old poems in renewed contextures, and ultimately observe that approaching Zukofsky through his audiotexts tilts his work decisively toward song. …”

The Behavioral Mechanism and Forecasting of Beijing Housing Prices from a Multiscale Perspective by Yan Li, Zhaoyang Xiang, Tao Xiong

“…Specifically, the monthly house price in Beijing over the period January 2005 to November 2018 is first decomposed into several different time-scale intrinsic-mode functions (IMFs) and a residual via EEMD, revealing some interesting characteristics in house price volatility. Then, we compose the IMFs and residual into three components caused by normal market disequilibrium, extreme events, and the economic environment using the fine-to-coarse reconstruction algorithm. …”
