Nematic-like band splitting and crystal field splitting in newly discovered hybrid 12442 iron-based superconductors
No full textWe present theoretical results of crystal field splitting and nematic-like band splitting based on density functional theory first principles electronic structure and Wannier fitted tight binding calculations on the newly discovered quasi two-dimensional (where A = K, Rb, Cs) i.e., 12442 iron-based superconductors. The orbital selective anisotropy of band structures as well as Fermi surfaces are discussed through electronic structure calculations. The degeneracy of and orbitals are lifted in 12442 compounds due to the reduction of local symmetry to of Fe-site. This degeneracy lifting of and cause band reconstruction which in turn induce emergence of nematic-like splitting of some bands in these compounds. This splitting is maximum at the electron bands near the Brillouin zone corner. The details of band reconstruction and band splittings are explored using relativistic pseudopotential including spin orbit coupling. To verify the degeneracy lifting of level in 12442 compounds, crystal field splitting is calculated with tight binding fitting using maximally localized Wannier functions. In contrary to its parent 1111 and 122 compounds, the degeneracy lifting of may be responsible for intrinsic band splitting in tetragonal phase of these compounds
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Spectroscopic studies of the superconducting gap in the 12442 family of iron-based compounds
Get PDFThe iron-based compounds of the so-called 12442 family are very peculiar in
various respects. They originate from the intergrowth of 122 and 1111 building
blocks, display a large in-plane vs. out-of-plane anisotropy, possess double
layers of FeAs separated by insulating layers, and are generally very similar
to double-layer cuprates. Moreover, they are stoichiometric superconductors
because of an intrinsic hole doping. Establishing their superconducting
properties, and in particular the symmetry of the order parameter, is thus
particularly relevant in order to understand to what extent these compounds can
be considered as the iron-based counterpart of cuprates. In this work we review
the results of various techniques from the current literature and compare them
with ours, obtained in Rb-12442 by combining point-contact Andreev-reflection
spectroscopy and coplanar waveguide resonator measurements of the superfluid
density. It turns out that the compound possesses at least two gaps, one of
which is certainly nodal. The compatibility of this result with the
theoretically allowed gap structures, as well as with the other results in
literature, is discussed in detail.Comment: 16 pages, 12 figure
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
