According to Wehrl one associates to every state of a quantum system characterized by a density matrix o a “classical entropy” build up with help of the probability measure (zlwz)dz. Here (zl denotes the coherent state labelled by the point z of the phase space, and dz is the Liouville measure. In [l] and [2] Wehrl stated a number of interesting properties of this classical entropy and its rela...

low back pain (lbp) is the most common type of musculoskeletal disorder (msds) in transfer tasks such as nursing personnel. financial and economic costs expended for these disorders affect not only the individual, but the organization and society as well. the aim of this study was to evaluate associated factors in the incidence of lbp among nursing personnel according to risk assessment methods...

We study the impact of loss-aversion and the threat of catastrophic damages, which we jointly call threshold concerns, on international environmental agreements. We aim to understand whether a threshold for dangerous climate change is as an effective coordination device for countries to overcome the global free-riding problem and abate sufficiently to avoid disaster. We focus on loss-averse cou...
