Diese Arbeit behandelt ein Thema griechischer Zeitgeschichte aus dem Bereich der Politikgeschichte. Sie leistet einen Beitrag zur Autoritarismusforschung jenseits von links- und rechtspolitischen Stereotypisierungen. Auf der Makroebene steht das griechische Offizierskorps des 20. Jahrhunderts im Fokus, auf der Mikroebene die bislang unerforschte Zivilianisierung des griechischen Regimes nach 1967. Das Regime erreichte die Konsolidierung durch den repressiven Apparat der Militärs und durch die repressiven ideologischen Apparate der Zivilisten. Die Frage nach der Legitimation hing jedoch nur mit den Zivilisten und ihren Zivilianisierungsbestrebungen zusammen. Doch die Heterogenität ihrer Konzepte sowie das Misstrauen der Militärs machte aus der Zivilianisierung ein realitätsfremdes Projekt

The exploitation of forest and agricultural biomass residues for energy production may offer significant advantages to the energy policy of the relevant country, but it strongly depends on a number of financial, technological and political factors. The work in hand focuses on the investigation of the energy, environmental and financial benefits, resulting from the exploitation of forest and agricultural biomass residues, fully substituting the conventional fuel (diesel oil) for building space heating in Greece. For this investigation, the energy needs of a representative building are determined using the EnergyPlus software, assuming that the building is located across the various climate zones of Greece. Based on the resulting thermal energy needs, the primary energy consumption and the corresponding emissions are determined, while an elementary fiscal analysis is also performed. The results show that significant financial benefits for the end-user are associated with the substitution examined, even though increased emissions and primary energy consumption have been derived.

The amount of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) generated mostly in large urban centers is a major problem. For a modern society, the proper management and treatment of MSW is imperative and necessary. However, each community has organized and installed different waste treatment methods based on environmental, social and economic criteria. In this paper, a comparative analysis of waste treatment methods that countries in EU28 have adopted based on economic factors for a time period of 2008–2017, is presented. Power Purchase Parity (PPP), production of MSW and population growth have been considered as to identify how these factors may influence or determine the selected waste management methods. From the results obtained, what should be highlighted is the decrease of MSW in the majority of countries in EU28, regardless of population growth. PPP seems to have no correlation with more ecofriendly waste treatment methods such as recycling and composting, while countries that started to invest in waste-to-energy in the initial years of the examined period (2008–2017), increased their confidence in this technology up until the present day, regardless of PPP formulation.

AbstractCarbon nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted interest for optoelectronic applications due to their unique electronic and optoelectronic properties. In particular, multiwall (MW) CNTs film acts as perfect photo‐collector surface with the possibility to tune the absorbance by controlling the film thickness. In this work, we demonstrate two types of hybrid Si‐MWCNTs photodetectors. The MWCNTs are solution‐processed and deposited on n‐silicon substrate covered by two different dielectrics (Si3N4or SiO2). The MWCNTs/SiO2/n‐Si device is used here as reference, since the SiO2/Si system is the most widely investigated structure in microelectronics. The electrical and optical characteristics of the reference device are compared with the corresponding of our basic MWCNTs/Si3N4/n‐Si device. The MWCNTs are deposited on the substrate with the drop casting technique. Optical performance of the SiO2device is comparable to the Si3N4device thus revealing a quite interesting response under UV illumination. The Si3N4device exhibited a peak equivalent quantum efficiency (EQE) of 57% at 3 μW of source illumination power, thus demonstrating a superior performance as compared to the SiO2device (EQE of up to 55%, which is also promising for future applications). This performance can be attributed to the great absorption in UV region of CNTs layer. Apart from this technological goal, we also investigated how MWCNTs/Si3N4or MWCNTs/SiO2heterojunctions perform using standard electrical characterization techniques and how the presence of the CNTs change the dielectric characteristics of both substrates.

Η ελληνική χοιροτροφία στις αρχές του 21ου αιώνα καλείται να αντιμετωπίσει νέες προκλήσεις. Η σημερινή δυσχερής θέση στην οποία έχει περιέλθει οφείλεται στην έλλειψη προγραμματισμού και στόχων, ως συνέπεια της λήψης λανθασμένων αποφάσεων από όλους σχεδόν τους εμπλεκόμενους φορείς. Παράλληλα, οι απαιτήσεις του συγχρόνου καταναλωτή για άριστης υγειονομικά ποιότητας χοίρειο κρέας και οι ιδιαίτερα ανταγωνιστικές συνθήκες της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης, καθιστούν αναγκαία τη λήψη μέτρων για την επιβίωση της ελληνικής χοιροτροφίας. Εκείνο που απαιτείται είναι η εφαρμογή νομοθετικά κατοχυρωμένου προγράμματος κτηνιατρικής διαχείρισης στις ελληνικές χοιροτροφικές εκμεταλλεύσεις, συμφωνά με τις οδηγίες του υπευθύνου κτηνιάτρου της εκτροφής. Για την ορθή λειτουργία του προγράμματος είναι απαραίτητη η τήρηση των κανόνων κτηνιατρικής προστασίας βιοασφάλειας και η εφαρμογή συστημάτων συμβατών με τοHACCP σε επίπεδο εκτροφής. Έτσι θα υπάρξει η δυνατότητα παραγωγής χοίρων σφαγής υψηλού επιπέδου υγείας. Το πρόγραμμα κτηνιατρικής διαχείρισης θα συμβάλει καθοριστικά και σε συνεργασία με τους περαιτέρω υπευθύνους φορείς (υγιεινολόγοι κτηνίατροι,κρεοσκόποι κτηνίατροι κ.λπ.), στην παραγωγή υψηλής ποιότητας υγειονομικά πιστοποιημένου χοίρειου κρέατος, το οποίο αποδεδειγμένα προτιμά ο Έλληνας και κάθε Ευρωπαίος καταναλωτής. Παράλληλα, η εφαρμογή ενός τέτοιου προγράμματος στις ελληνικές χοιροτροφικές εκμεταλλεύσεις θα οδηγήσει στη βελτίωση της ανταγωνιστικότητας και της παραγωγικότητας της ελληνικής χοιροτροφίας παράλληλα με την προστασία της δημόσιας υγείας και του περιβάλλοντος. Εάν ληφθούν όλα τα απαραίτητα μέτρα από τους υπευθύνους φορείς, θα υπάρξει τελικά δυνατότητα επιβίωσης για την ελληνική χοιροτροφία συμφωνά με τα σημερινά δεδομένα.Έτσι θα καλυφθούν οι ανάγκες του καταναλωτή για υψηλής ποιότητας υγειονομικά πιστοποιημένο χοίρειο κρέας με την εφαρμογήόλων των απαραίτητων μέτρων που θα προστατεύουν την παραγωγική διαδικασία από το «στάβλο έως το πιάτο». ; At the beginning of the 21st century the greek pig industry has to face new challenges. Its frustrating position today is the result of lack of programming and clear targets, as a consequence of false decisions by almost all implicated authorities. Moreover, modern consumer's demand for high quality hygienically certified pork meat and the extremely competitive environment of the European Union necessitate the uptake of measures for the survival of the greek pig industry. It is essential to implement a legislatively consolidated on farm veterinary management programme in all greek industrial pig farms under full supervision and responsibility of the authorized veterinarian of every farm. As support to this programme, it is also important to follow the rules of a veterinary protection-biosecurity programme and to use an on farm HACCP compatible system. In this way it will be possible to produce high health status slaughter pigs. The on farm veterinary management programme will significantly contribute, in coordination with all the other responsible authorities (meat inspectors, public health veterinarians etc.), to the production of high quality hygienically certified pork meat, which is mostly preferred by Greek and European consumers. Furthermore, the implementation of an on farm veterinary management programme in all greek industrial pig farms will extensively assist to the improvement of the greek pig industry's competitiveness and productivity, the protection of public health and of the environment. If all responsible authorities take the appropriate actions, there will be an opportunity for the greek pig industry to survive under the current conditions. Finally, the consumer will see his demands for high quality hygienically certified pork meat to fulfilled after the application of all appropriate measures that will secure the production procedures of pork meat from «the stable to the table».

Main issues regulated by the above legislation are the license procedure for the use of laboratory animals, the registration of breeding, supplying and experimental establishments, the implementation of guidelines for the appropriate care and use of the animals, the collection of statistical information and the promotion of alternative to animal experimentation methods. The veterinarian plays an important role for the protection, the health and the welfare of laboratory animals. This role is well defined within the existing legislation. The supervision of the veterinarian guarantees also the quality of the obtained results from animal experimentations. After twenty years, the scientific community and the animal welfare associations recognized the need for the revision of the existing European legal framework under the new obtained scientific knowledge. The Council of Europe has recently revised the Appendix A of the European Convention ETS 123 and the Commission of the European Union initiated the process for the revision of the European Directive 86/609. Ethical evaluation, authorization procedures and registration of establishments are, also, expected to be revised.

We review top quark physics, and discuss the flavor aspects of several extensions of the standard model, such as supersymmetry, little Higgs models or models with extra dimensions. This includes discovery aspects, as well as the measurement of several properties of these heavy states. We also present publicly available computational tools related to this topic.

How can we explain that some Popular education militants are also referring to the Information Society and thus seem to join this plan, carried to a great extent by merchants and the authorities ? Which are the stakes at work in this "meeting" ? Popular education, in addition to a long and plural history, is not homogeneous. However, Popular education is marked by a common philosophy aiming at developing social, cultural and political people's emancipation. In the mean time, political and economic authorities need to get the support of social actors to carry out the Information Society. Within this framework, associations would be the relay of the development of this society ; the necessary social mediator of this plan. Meanwhile, Popular education movements are seeking ways to appropriate this concept in order to make it able to serve the interests of Popular education. But they also question the specific purposes of this model. Indeed, the reference to the Information Society allows the militants of Popular education to update their traditional matters, and also to come out of the crisis they are facing. Lastly, if this meeting seems, at first sight, to generate consensus, the inherent conflicts in the confrontation of the values and identities do not therefore disappear and question the real stakes at work.
