Treaty shopping : la fin d'un problème fiscal international? / Treaty shopping: the end of an international tax issue?Dhoukar, Malek. January 1999 (has links)
Treaty Shopping can be defined as the "abuse" of tax conventions; it is a major international taxation topic. Its importance is increasing since the beginning of the 80's and the enactment of specific anti treaty shopping measures. / Those specific measures are the purpose of this thesis. Is treaty shopping a solved problem? Are those measures, taken principally by the undisputed leader of this policy, the United States, entirely efficient? / In order to answer those questions, a brief study of the phenomenon of treaty shopping is needed. The first part of this thesis deals with this issue. / The measures themselves are analyzed in the second part. Basically, we can classify them in two categories, the national and the limitation on benefits incorporated in tax conventions. Both of them present weaknesses and approximations. In those circumstances, it would be difficult to admit the end of treaty shopping. Moreover, those measures have raised new problems that must be addressed firstly in order to envisage an end to the practice of treaty shopping.

Forgotten dreams : an electro-acoustic composition for double bass, eight-channel digital audio, and interactive electronicsBolte, Jason L. January 2003 (has links)
This creative project explores the technical and musical possibilities associated with the composition of an electro-acoustic work, scored for double bass, eight-channel digital audio, and interactive electronics, that integrates the uniqueness and spontaneity of live performance with the textural, timbral, and spatial complexity that can be achieved through the use of prerecorded digital audio. The most significant compositional idea that is explored in this work is the interactions between the double bass, digital audio, and interactive electronics. These three components interact with one another on several levels. This is not limited to harmonic, melodic, or rhythmic components, but also includes such attributes as timbre, texture, dynamics, timing, improvisation, and sound projection. To create this interaction, several computer applications are used for the realization of the digital audio and score notation, and in live performance. / School of Music

Contemporary etudes for the double bassValk, Alexis January 1978 (has links)
Contemporary literature for the double bass includes a large body of new techniques of double bass playing. Though these techniques are not included on any didactic materials for the double bass, they are frequently found in contemporary compositions. The only work which enumerates these new techniques is Bertram Turetsky's book, The Contemporary Contrabass.This dissertation is intended to close the gap between composer and double bass performer by presenting ten etudes which systematically cover the most important of these techniques as outlined in Turetsky's work. The categories in which these new techniques have arisen are those of arco performance, pizzicato performance, harmonics, percussion sounds, and vocal and speech sounds. In addition to these categories, two which pose performance difficulties unique to contemporary music, but not unique to double bass performance, have been considered in this dissertation. These are changing meters and new notation systems. These seven categories of double bass performance techniques, then, form the essential content of the ten etudes, which are composed so that they present these techniques in their typical musical context.The first four etudes are concerned with changing meters, one of the most basic performance problems in contemporary music. The first etude is in quintuple meters only, but the metrical complexity of the first four etudes gradually increases to encompass rapidly changing meters and metric modulations. Etudes V and VI continue to use changing meters, but they are primarily concerned with contemporary pizzicato techniques. Etudes VII through X are concerned with new notational systems, including proportional notation, frame notation, and graphic notation. These latter etudes also present other contemporary techniques in conjunction with the study of notation. Etude VII introduces proportional notation, as well as the various types of harmonics common in contemporary literature. Etude VIII continues the study of proportional notation, but introduces percussion sounds. Etude IX continues the study of percussion sounds, but places them in the context of frame notation, thereby also introducing classical improvisation. Etude X uses percussive and speech sounds in the framework of a simple graphic notational system. Each of these ten etudes is preceded by a text which fully explains the new techniques used.Each etude has been written to approximate the musical styles in which these contemporary techniques are used. These etudes can be performed in concert, as well as in lessons and in practice sessions. It is hoped that these etudes will further enlighten double bass players in the use of new contemporary techniques and contribute to the increased performance of the contemporary works in which they are found.

Precise determination of the 136Xe – 136Ba atomic mass difference and related mass differences in Ba and CdMcCowan, Peter 13 January 2010 (has links)
In light of present (EXO) and future (BOREXINO & XMASS) projects searching for evidence of the, as yet, unobserved double-beta decay of 136Xe, an atomic mass difference of 136Xe – 136Ba was determined using the high-precision Manitoba II mass spectrometer at the University of Manitoba. The Q-value for this difference was determined to be 2458.72(56) keV.
The double-beta decay mode can be either neutrino (ββ2υ) or neutrinoless (ββ0υ), where the latter would be proof of the Majorana nature of neutrinos. A ββ0υ decay, which violates several principles of the Standard Model of particle physics, would emit only electrons and would provide a defined peak at the Q-value for the decay. This decay would also require the Majorana neutrino to have a non-zero rest mass and be its own antiparticle.
Results of mass measurements on mass doublets of 135Ba, 136Ba, 137Ba, and 138Ba will be given. An improved measurement of the 116Cd35Cl - 114Cd37Cl doublet, previously done by Meredith et al. in 1973, will also be given.
