No full textThe single-spaced paragraph on the “About the Author” page of R.J. Sommers’ latest novel says she lives in a one-story house on the edge of a city. It says she is renowned for writing relatable characters and compelling relationships. It says nothing about her own friends.
Gazing from a photo at the top of the page, R.J. Sommers appears to point a camera toward her readers..

No full textMeasurement of the spectra of multiply-scattered radiation in a medium irradiated with Co60 gamma rays
No full textA knowledge of the spectral distribution of scattered
radiation at a point is of value in planning effective radiation
therapy and adequate personnel protection. Some spectra have been
calculated theoretically or measured experimentally for a few
particular irradiation conditions.
In this investigation, the spectral distributions of multiply-scattered
Co60 radiation were measured at depths of 2 cm., 5 cm.,
10 cm. and 15 cm. in tissue-equivalent material with beam areas of
25 cm.2 and 100 cm.2. Total-scatter spectra, including both singly- and
multiply-scattered radiation, were measured at various angles.
Then, upon subtraction of the single-scatter spectra contribution
from the total-scatter spectra, multiple-scatter spectra were obtained.
The integrated and corrected multiple-scatter spectra were compared
to corresponding spectra derived from data calculated by Bruce using
the Monte Carlo method.
The shapes of the experimental multiple-scatter spectra show
fair agreement with Bruce's theoretical spectra. The greatest discrepancy
between the spectra occurs in the low-energy end of the spectra.
For all measured depths and beam areas the theoretical low-energy peaks
appear at an energy from 10 to 30 KeV higher than that of the experimental
peaks
Author Co-Citation Analysis (ACA): a powerful tool for representing implicit knowledge of scholar knowledge workers
No full textIn the last decade, knowledge has emerged as one of the most important and valuable organizational assets. Gradually this importance caused to emergence of new discipline entitled ―knowledge management‖. However one of the major challenges of knowledge management is conversion implicit or tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge. Thus Making knowledge visible so that it can be better accessed, discussed, valued or generally managed is a long-standing objective in knowledge management. Accordingly in this paper author co- citation analysis (ACA) will be proposed as an efficient technique of knowledge visualization in academia (Scholar knowledge workers)
