Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) significantly impacts radiative forcing, climate, and human health. A key process in SOA formation is the production of highly oxygenated molecules (HOMs) through the atmospheric oxidation of volatile organic compounds. [...]

Under the influence of technological and societal factors, passenger transport in Germany is facing a comprehensive transformation towards an increasingly multimodal and greenhouse gas neutral system. The aim of this work is to describe the long-term changesin individual mobility behavior in the context of these transformation processes and in the time horizon up to the year 2050 in Germany..

Photochemical reactions with the reactive halogen atoms Cl and Br mostly cause stratospheric ozone depletion. The chlorine- and bromine-containing very short-lived species (VSLS), which have an atmospheric lifetime of less than six months, play an essentialrole in stratospheric total bromine loading [...]

Many scientific computing algorithms barely provide sufficient data-parallelism to exploit the ever-increasing hardware parallelism of today’s heterogeneous computing environments. The challenge is to fully exploit the parallelization potential of such algorithms. [...]

The share of imported energy in the European Union's primary energy consumption increased from 50 % in 1990 to over 60 % in 2019. Although the further extension of renewable energy production and the increasing electrification in every sector will reduce thisdependency, a European energy autarky based on renewable energies cannot be assured in the short timeframe given until 2045. [...]

ESS, the European Spallation Source, will be a major user facility at which researchers from academia and industry will investigate scientific questions using neutron beams. Neutron methods provide insights about the molecular building blocks of matter not available by other means. [...]

Bacteriophages, the viruses of bacteria, are ubiquitously found and represent the most abundant biological entities on the planet. Phage predation poses a constant threat to bacterial communities and results in an ongoing arms race characterized by continuousadaptation and counter-adaptation. [...]

Due to the steadily growing world population and mobility shift, more and more people are moving around in public spaces, such as in train stations or shopping arcades. This increased volume of people has led to restrictions on the functionality of traffic infrastructures [...]
