The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of organizational culture that fosters entrepreneurship in family firms. The entrepreneurial process is viewed as radical change in family firms due to emotions related to change in this kind of organization, which are more intense than nonfamily firms and makes the organization behaves the same way of previous generation. The culture of family firm Alfa is analyzed through the model of Hall, Melin and Nordqvist (2001) which classifies family business culture according to the fact that it is dominated by one or several family memb

More efficient and stable far ultraviolet (FUV) mirrors will enable future space observatories. Traditional FUV mirrors are based on MgF2-protected Al. AlF3 has been identified as a promising substitute for MgF2 to prevent Al oxidation. Hence, the reflectivity, stability, and morphology of AlF3-protected Al mirrors have been investigated as a function of deposition temperature of the AlF3 film. In this work, it is shown how AlF3 deposition temperature is an important parameter whose optimization ultimately yields valuable throughput enhancement and improved endurance to large storage periods.

Abstract:
Thirty-three pear cultivars and selections of potential interest to pear producers and plant breeders in the Czech Republic were tested for relative field susceptibility to the fire blight (Erwinia amylovora) over five years. Level of fire blight susceptibility was evaluated according to the extent of lesion development on the shoot tips after artificial inoculation in experimental plots under insect proof nets. Old cvs Alexander Lucas (as resistant standard), Conference (as moderately resistant standard) and Beurr&amp;eacute; Bosc (as susceptible standard) were included in the tests. The 33 p

Abstract:
This paper proposes a design scheme for a deep ultraviolet anti-reflective film, with a substrate material of JGS1, and high and low refractive index materials of Al2O3 and AlF3, respectively. The Essential Macleod optical thin film design software was used to simulate the 222nm deep ultraviolet anti-reflective film. The simulation results show a transmission rate of 99.99%at 222nm. However, due to the presence of scattering and absorption, the actual experimental transmission rate is 99.2%. Although the actual transmission rate is 0.79%lower than the theoretical value, it still meets the appl

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to present the intraspecific differentiation of the curly silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) by the wood structure growing in the Ukrainian Carpathians. To find the morphological distinctions by using the silvicultural and biometric methods, 50 silver fir trees with anomalous wavy-relief stemwood formations were investigated. The trees aged from 94 to 132 years were characterised by the diameter at breast height of 32–59 cm. The length of the wave-grained stemwood varied from 6 to 11.5 m. The amplitude of the wood fibre waves varied from 4.4 to 24.1 mm. The smallest values

This study is a part of a larger ongoing investigation into the cinema of Gutiérrez Alea, in which the researcher is looking at the various techniques he utilizes across his films to generate a social dialectic. The study is located in the skopos defined by Gutiérrez Alea – diminishing the role of the cultural archetypes such as patriarchy and identification with the colonizer that were dee

Abstract We manipulated arthropod and mammalian herbivory levels on white oak seedlings using a combination of insecticide applications and fencing and employed a split-split-plot design to assess the impact of single- and multiple-year burns on seedling growth over a 2 yr period. Herbivory levels increased over time on all sites, but there was no significant difference in herbivore pressure on seedlings in single-year burned, multiple-year burned, and nonburned plots. Insecticide-treated seedlings suffered less herbivore pressure than did noninsecticide treated seedlings, and mammalian herbiv

Abstract:
It’s easy to be discouraged by the apparently grim state of science communication. Politicians and charlatans are promoting conspiracy theories about everything from COVID-19 to climate change. Scientists are ignored by friends and relatives who would rather believe the pseudoscientific claims of a huckster with a podcast. Experts who enter the political and public milieu sometimes find themselves unable to communicate clearly, creating confusion and disdain. In the midst of this angst, Alan Alda has emerged as an unassailable voice of hope and optimism, firm in the belief that better science

Further confirmation came from provenance trials, which selected provenances for cultivation in Denmark and showed provenance-dependent genetic variability even within a relatively small area such as the Czech Republic. The Polish trial, started in 1960, compared 6 provenances from the West and Central Carpathian region (4 from Poland, 2 from Slovakia) and 3 from the Hercinic region (Czech Republic). The trial w
