text: 'The digital transformation of organizations in the industrial sector is primarily
driven by the opportunity to increase productivity while simultaneously reducing
costs through integration into a cyber-physical system. One way to fully tap the
potential of a cyber-physical system is the concept of the digital twin, i.e.,
the real-time digital representation of machines and resources involved – including
human resources. The vision of representing humans by digital twins primarily
aims at increasing economic benefits. The digital twin of a human, however, cannot
be designed in a similar way to that of a machine. The human digital twin shall
rather enable humans to act within the cyber-physical system. It therefore offers
humans a power of control and the opportunity to provide feedback. The concept
of the digital twin is still in its infancy and raises many questions in particular
from an educational perspective. The contribution aims at answering the following
questions and refers to the example of team learning: Which and how much data
should and may the digital twin contain in order to support humans in their learning?
To what extent will humans be able to control and design their own learning? How
may skills, experiences, and social interactions of humans be represented in the
digital twin; their growth and further development, respectively? With cyber-physical
systems transcending corporate, national, and legal boundaries, what learning
culture will be the frame of reference for the involved organizations?'

text: How is merger and acquisition (M&A) success associated with firm internal
M&A process organization? The literature thus far acknowledges that unobservable
internal firm characteristics are at least as important as observable firm- and
deal-specific characteristics in regard to explaining M&A success. Thus, this
paper directly asks M&A experts around the globe to shed more light on this important
issue. We investigate three indices, capturing the degree of M&A 1) process standardization,
2) process duration, and 3) process attention. Next, we analyze the process participation
among four organizational layers, i.e., the functional involvement of the a) top
management team, b) headquarters, c) business unit management, and d) business
unit functions. We predict and find that all three indices are positively associated
with M&A success, while process standardization and attention to deal strategy
are of particular importance. Turning to the four organizational layers, a textured
analysis shows that, for instance, target valuation should be performed by the
headquarters functions but not by the top management team or the business unit.
Overall, our findings are important to better understand unexplored M&A success
drivers and provide directions for future research. Finally, our results might
help practitioners adjust their M&A process organization to further improve their
M&A success.

text: The utilization and preparation of functional hybrid films for optical sensing
applications and membranes is of utmost importance. In this work, we report the
convenient and scalable preparation of self-crosslinking particle-based films
derived by directed self-assembly of alkoxysilane-based cross-linkers as part
of a core-shell particle architecture. The synthesis of well-designed monodisperse
core-shell particles by emulsion polymerization is the basic prerequisite for
subsequent particle processing via the melt-shear organization technique. In more
detail, the core particles consist of polystyrene (PS) or poly(methyl methacrylate)
(PMMA), while the comparably soft particle shell consists of poly(ethyl acrylate)
(PEA) and different alkoxysilane-based poly(methacrylate)s. For hybrid film formation
and convenient self-cross-linking, different alkyl groups at the siloxane moieties
were investigated in detail by solid-state Magic-Angle Spinning Nuclear Magnetic
Resonance (MAS, NMR) spectroscopy revealing different crosslinking capabilities,
which strongly influence the properties of the core or shell particle films with
respect to transparency and iridescent reflection colors. Furthermore, solid-state
NMR spectroscopy and investigation of the thermal properties by differential scanning
calorimetry (DSC) measurements allow for insights into the cross-linking capabilities
prior to and after synthesis, as well as after the thermally and pressure-induced
processing steps. Subsequently, free-standing and self-crosslinked particle-based
films featuring excellent particle order are obtained by application of the melt-shear
organization technique, as shown by microscopy (TEM, SEM).

text: The spatial distribution of visual attention is a yet unresolved question.
One of the main topics is whether attention is distributed in a graded fashion
around an attended location (e.g., Downing, 1988; Zimba & Hughes, 1987). The present
experiments explore whether, and on which conditions, gradients of attention arise
and contribute to perceptual facilitation. A masked or unmasked prime precedes
one of two targets whose temporal order has to be judged. The prime captures attention,
which shortens the perceptual latency of the primed target (perceptual latency
priming; Scharlau & Neumann, 2003a; Shore, Spence, & Klein, 2001). No strong evidence
for an attentional gradient was found. (1) Accuracy of temporal order judgements
was independent of the distance between the two targets that were judged. That
is, facilitation of the second target by the first target was spatially invariant.
(2) With targets of short duration, facilitation was independent of prime-target
distance. (3) With ta
