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
The synthesis and characterization of low dimensional molecule-based magnetic materials having a cyanido bridge between 3d and 4d/5d transition metal ions
No full textDans cette thèse, nous avons synthétisé de nouveaux matériaux moléculaires hétérométalliques pontés par des groupements cyanures en utilisant la chimie de coordination donneur-accepteur. Les précurseurs moléculaires basés sur un ion métallique 3d (MnII/III, FeII, NiII, CuII) agissent en tant qu’unités acceptrices, alors que les précurseurs 4d (RuIII) et 5d (ReIV) de type trans-cyanido ont été utilisés comme groupements donneurs. Le chapitre I présente une approche théorique avec quelques exemples des matériaux magnétiques de basse dimensionnalité : molécule et chaîne aimant qui illustrent le rôle du ligand cyanido pour concevoir les matériaux magnétiques. En outre, nous avons sélectionné des précurseurs cyanido à base de métaux 4d/5d pour leur anisotropie magnétique plus élevée par rapport aux ions de métaux 3d. Le choix des précurseurs moléculaires, leur synthèse et leur caractérisation ont été largement décrits dans le chapitre II. Au cours de ce travail de recherche, nous avons obtenu de nombreux systèmes moléculaires hétérométalliques mais également des systèmes unidimensionnels. Les chapitres III, IV et V décrivent la synthèse, la structure cristallographique et la caractérisation magnétique de tous les complexes synthétisés. L’empilement cristallin compact des molécules conduit à un état fondamental antiferromagnétique pour la plupart des complexes ce qui perturbe souvent les phénomènes de relaxation magnétique. Nous avons donc établi les diagrammes de phases magnétiques pour la plupart de ces systèmes. De plus, certaines des chaînes ReIV/MnIII et une chaîne ReIV/FeII présentent des comportements magnétiques de type "chaîne aimant" et donc une bistabilité magnétique.In this thesis, we have synthesised new cyanido bridged heterometallic molecule-based magnetic materials with the tool of simple donor-acceptor coordination chemistry. The 3d metal ion (MnII/III,FeII, NiII, CuII) based molecular precursors acted as acceptor building blocks, whereas the 4d (RuIII)and 5d (ReIV) trans-cyanido type molecular precursors were used as donor moieties.Chapter I contains a theoretical approach with examples of low dimensional magnetic materials:Single Molecule and Single Chain Magnets that illustrate the role of the cyanido ligand to design such magnetic materials. Furthermore, we emphasized the 4d/5d metal based cyanido precursors for their higher magnetic anisotropy over the 3d metal ions. The choice of molecular precursors, their synthesis and characterization were extensively described in chapter II. In this research work, we have obtained many heterometallic molecular complexes and also one dimensional systems. Chapter III, IV and V contain the synthesis, X-ray crystallographic and magnetic characterization of all the newly synthesized complexes. The close crystal packing of the molecules lead to an antiferromagnetic ground state for most of the complexes and this often perturbed the magnetic relaxation phenomena. As expected, we have found metamagnetic phase diagrams for most of these systems. Some of the ReIV/MnIII and a ReIV/FeII one dimensional compounds exhibited Single-Chain magnet like properties and thus magnetic bistability

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
