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
Recent Belle II results on BSM physics
Get PDFWe report on recent results obtained by the Belle II experiment related to
searches for beyond-the-standard-model physics. The meson decay data sample
used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of fb. In recent
years, discrepancies from standard-model predictions, which suggest violation
of lepton-flavor universality, have emerged in multiple measurements of
-meson decays. In this document two analyses aimed to search for violation
of the light-lepton universality are reported: the inclusive
measurement and an angular analysis of the , with
, decays. In addition, beyond-the-standard-model physics can manifests
itself with the production of new particles. The search for a long-lived spin-0
particle in transitions, and its interpretation in two dark sector
models, is reported.Comment: Presented at DIS2023: XXX International Workshop on Deep-Inelastic

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
Rare Decays of Heavy Baryons using Soft Collinear Effective Theory
Get PDFIn the era of high-luminosity hadronic colliders, the rare heavy-to-light decay Lambda_b to Lambda l+ l- receives increasing research attention in both experimental and theoretical particle phenomenology. This flavour-changing neutral-current decay is a potential window for the discovery of new Physics beyond the Standard Model through its helicity-sensitive nature, complementing past and ongoing searches and calculations related to the B meson.
In this work the universal soft form factor in the heavy-quark and large-recoil limits is calculated using light-cone sum rules in the framework of soft-collinear effective theory, as is the O(alpha_s) correction from hard-collinear gluon exchange.
Numerical estimates on form-factor ratios and experimental observables are presented. Related issues, including baryonic transition form factors and in particular light-cone distribution amplitudes for the heavy baryon Lambda_b, are also discussed
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
