Life as a Game With no Rules in Tom Stoppard’s "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" and Samuel Beckett’s "Waiting for Godot"
No full textSemjuela Beketa luga „Gaidot Godo” bieži tiek izcelta kā absurda teātra centrālais darbs. Savukārt Toms Stopards, rakstot „Rozenkrancs un Gildenšterns ir miruši”, ir ļoti ietekmējies no iepriekšminētās īru dramaturga lugas. Tas, ka tiek pievērsta uzmanība absurda teātrim ļoti svarīgu darbu analīzei, palielina pētījuma nozīmīgumu un vērtību.
Šī bakalaura darba mērķis ir analizēt tos elementus, kas attēlo dzīvi kā eksistenci bez noteikumiem S. Beketa lugā „Gaidot Godo” un T. Stoparda lugā „Rozenkrancs un Gildenšterns ir miruši”. Pētījums galvenokārt koncentrējas uz to, kā šī ideja ir attīstījusies T. Stoparda darbā salīdzinājumā ar S. Beketa lugu.
Bakalaura darbs sastāv no 5 nodaļām. Pirmajā tiek apkopota teorētiskā literatūra par absurda teātra svarīgākajām iezīmēm, tā attīstības vēsturi, kā arī Semjuelu Beketu un Tomu Stopardu kā spilgtiem šī žanra pārstāvjiem. Otrā nodaļa satur teorētiskos materiālus par eksistenciālismu – filozofijas virzienu, kas visvairāk ietekmēja absurda teātra dramaturgu pausto dzīves uztveri. Trešajā nodaļā ir apskatīta Albēra Kamī absurda filozofija, kā arī šīs filozofijas izpausmes absurda teātra darbos. Visbeidzot ceturtā un piektā nodaļa ir veltīta divu izvēlēto lugu analīzei, pētot dzīvi kā spēli bez stingriem priekšrakstiem.Samuel Beckett’s “Waiting for Godot” is widely perceived as the “definition” of the theatre of the absurd, while Tom Stoppard’s “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead” draws very much from the above-mentioned work of the Irish playwright. So, by choosing these plays, two very important and central writings of the theatre of the absurd come under examination. It, in turn, increases the significance and the value of the research.
The paper provides the analysis of the elements shaping the perception of life as possessing no regulations in Samuel Beckett’s “Waiting for Godot” and Tom Stoppard’s “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead”. The analysis mainly focuses on revealing the evolution of the abovementioned concept in “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead” as compared to “Waiting for Godot”.
The paper consists of five chapters, and the first one presents the survey of theoretical literature on the main aspects of the theatre of the absurd as well as its roots and philosophical influences, and Samuel Beckett and Tom Stoppard as prominent representatives of the genre. Chapter two contains material on existentialism in general, and the third chapter deals with Albert Camus’ absurd thought and its influence on the theatre of the absurd. Chapters four and five comprise the analysis of the elements revealing life as having no strict guidelines, as well as the comparative analysis of the two plays
Etude de modes de désintegration non charmée du méson B et recherche de la violation de la symétrie CP
No full textL'expérience BABAR a pour objectif de rechercher et de mesurer la violation de CP dans le secteur des mésons B et de contraindre les paramètres du modèle standard. Une des originalités de son dispositif expérimental est le DIRC, le détecteur à effet Cerenkov utilisé pour distinguer les pions des kaons chargés. Une table de correction est se en place pour corriger ses défauts d'alignement, et permet au DIRC d'atteindre ses performances nominales, c'est à dire une séparation entre kaon et pion de 4*(sigma) pour une quantité de mouvement de 3 GeV/c. La recherche de violation de CP dans le canal de désintégration du B^0 en pp devrait permettre de contraindre l'angle a du triangle d'unitarité, un des paramètres du modèle standard. L'objectif de cette analyse est de mesurer les paramètres de violation de CP ainsi que les autres paramètres entrant dans la description de la distribution de probabilité du temps de désintégration. Une méthode de maximum de vraisemblance combine l'information temporelle et des variables discriminantes du bruit de fond du continuum e+e->qq', dont certaines sont résumées dans un réseau de neurones. L'autre bruit de fond, constitué des autres modes de désintégration du B, est pris en compte par des termes correctifs dans l'ajustement. Cette analyse présente à ce jour les meilleures mesures pour ce canal, et semble donner une indication de la violation directe de CP. Pour interpréter ces mesures en termes de contraintes sur les paramètres du modèle standard, il est nécessaire d'utiliser un modèle pour prédire la contribution à longue distance des amplitudes de désintégration. Pour un exemple de tel modèle, la "factorisation QCD", un test de validation compare les prédictions aux données expérimentales sur les désintégrations non charmées du méson B. Ce test semble indiquer un désaccord, qui pourrait être réduit dans l'avenir par une meilleure connaissance expérimentale et théorique des désintégrations du B.The goal of the BABAR experiment is to search and measure CP violation in the sector of the B mesons et constrain the parameters of the standard model. One of the original features of its experimental design is the DIRC, the Cerenkov detector used to separate charged pions and kaons. A look-up table is implemented to correct for its alignment, and allows the DIRC to reach its design performance, a pion versus kaon separation power of 4*(sigma) at a momentum of 3 GeV/c. The search for CP violation in the decay channel B^0 to pp should result in constraints on the angle a of the unitarity triangle, one of the parameters of the standard model. The goal of this analysis is to measure CP violating parameters along with the other parameters entering the description of the decay time probability distribution function. A maximum likelihood method combines the time information with e+e-> qq' continuum background discriminating variables, some of which are summarized in a neural network. The other background, constituted of the other decay modes of the B, is taken into account with corrective terms in the fit. This analysis yields the best measurements for this channel up to date, and results in an indication of direct CP violation. In order to use these measurements to constrain the parameters of the standard model, the long distance contribution of the decay amplitudes has to be extracted from a model. For one such model, "QCD factorisation", a validation test confronts the model predictions with the experimental data on the charmless decays of the B mesons. The present status seems to be a disagreement, which could be reduced in the future with better experimental and theoretical knowledge of B decays.ORSAY-PARIS 11-BU Sciences (914712101) / SudocSudocFranceF
CP violation in the B meson system and prospects at an asymmetric B meson factory
No full text17 páginas, 12 figuras, 8 tablas.-- Comunicación presentada al 4º ECFA workshop on a European B-meson factory celebrado del 29 al 30 de Octubre de 1992 en Hamburgo (Alemania).We present an overview of tlie expected plienomenology of CP violation in the B system. The
prospects for observing CP-violating signals at an asymmetric B-Factory are analyzed. We
discuss how these phenomena can be used to test the unitarity of the Cahibbo-Kobayashi-
Maskawa matrix, and to either verify the Standard Model mechanism of CP violation or
provide clear evidence for new physics.The vork of A.P. has been supportcd in part by CYCIT, Spain. under grant No.

No full textDarba mērķis bija noskaidrot, kāda saistība pastāv starp indivīda nenoteiktības nenoturību un elektrodermālo aktivitāti1) noteiktā un nenoteiktā situācijā, 2) neitrālu un negatīvu audiālo stimulu gadījumā, 3) gaidot situācijas iznākumu un pēc tās. Pētījumā piedalījās 25 dalībnieki, ar vidējo vecumu M = 24,62, SD = 4,42 gadi. Tika demonstrēta attēlu un skaņas signālu sērija, paralēli mērot elektrodermālo aktivitāti. Tika izmantota Nenoteiktības nenoturības 12 pantu skalu un DASS-21. Nenoteiktības nenoturības 12 pantu skalas iekšējā saskaņotība bija laba, bet konverģentā validitāte bija vāja. Tika secināts, ka indivīdiem ar augstāku nenoteiktības nenoturību, bija lielāka elektrodermālā aktivitāte gan negatīva, gan neitrāla stimula atskaņošanas laikā, tādējādi apstiprinot, ka indivīdiem ar augstāku nenoteiktības nenoturību, negatīvas reakcijas tiek vispārinātas uz citām situācijām.The aim of this study was to measure correlation between the intolerance of uncertainty and electrodermal activity 1) in a certain and uncertain situation, 2) in the case of neutral and negative auditory stimuli, 3) during cue demonstration and after stimulus. In this study 25 participants with an average age of M = 24,62, SD = 4,42 took part. A series of images and sound signals were shown while measuring electrodermal activity. The Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale - Short Form and DASS-21 were used. The internal consistency of Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale was good, but convergent validity was weak. It was concluded that individuals with higher intolerance of uncertainty had higher electrodermal activity during both negative and neutral stimulus presentation, thus confirming that individuals with higher intolerance of uncertainty generalize negative reactivity to other situations
