    induced quasielastic production of hyperons leading to pions

    The quasielastic production cross sections and polarizations of the hyperons induced by νˉμ{{{\bar{\nu }}}}_\mu on the free nucleon as well as from 40^{40}Ar in the sub-GeV energy region has been reviewed (Fatima et al., Front Phys 7:13, 2019; Fatima et al., Phys Rev D 98:033005, 2018; Akbar et al., Phys Rev D 94:114031, 2016; Fatima et al., Eur Phys J A 54:95, 2018; Akbar et al., Eur Phys J A 53:154, 2017). The effects of the second class currents in the axial vector sector with and without T-invariance as well as the effect of SU(3) symmetry breaking are also studied. We find that the cross sections and the various polarization components can effectively be used to determine the axial vector transition form factors in the strangeness sector and to test the validity of various symmetries of the weak hadronic currents like G-invariance, T-invariance and SU(3) symmetry. These hyperons decay dominantly into pions giving an additional contribution to the weak pion production induced by the antineutrinos. In the case of nuclear targets like 40^{40}Ar, this contribution is shown to be significant when compared with the pion production by the Δ\varDelta excitations in the energy range of Eνˉμ0.7E_{{\bar{\nu }}_{\mu }} \le 0.7 GeV (Fatima et al., Front Phys 7:13, 2019). This study could be useful for the DUNE experiment where argon will be used as the target material and the electronic imaging of particles is possible and the particle tracks can be identified

    سجاد ظہیر کے ناولٹ ”لندن کی ایک رات“ کا ما بعد نو آبادیاتی جائزہ: A POST-COLONIAL REVIEW OF SAJJAD ZAHEER'S NOVELETTE "LONDON KI EK RAAT"

    No full text
    “London ki Ek Raat”is a famous novel by Sajjad Zaheer. In this novel, he has thoroughly reviewed the poor patriotism of the people of India. In this novel, the elements of post-colonialism have been reviewed. Creation relates differently to a creator. I think it is not fair to deny the author. The characters contribute according to the author's intention and move the story till the end. The feelings and emotions of the audience and viewers come out as the feelings and emotions of the characters and the pain and difficulty of the character becomes the difficulty of the reader and he feels sympathy for him. Even in "London Ki Ek Raat" where five, six stories are going on simultaneously. The purpose of Sajjad Zaheer himself to write this novelette is a different story, as every writer has a specific mindset. In the same way, those goals also enter into the creation even if the creator does not want it, and their reflections can be mixed up. Sajjad Zaheer has also given the most suitable role to the characters in the background and foreground of the world and the subcontinent in "London Ki Ek Raat

    Pakistan Journal of Library and Information Science (PJLIS) is an HEC recognized journal published by the Department of Library and Informat ion Science, University of the Punjab, Lahore. A total of 111 publications from 11 issues of PJLIS were pu blished during 1995 to 2010. It has outstanding contribution in the dissemination of LIS research on national and international level as it publishes both in print and electronic format. A bibliometric analysis of contributions published in the PJLIS from 1995 to 2010 has been presented in this paper. Attempt has been made to study all 11 issues of this journal on the basis of different parameters, viz., author productivity, extent of authors’ collaboration, authors’ institutional affiliation, authors’ geographic affiliation, type of publication, language of papers, number of citations used per article, length of papers, and year-wise distribution of papers

    De-radicalizing Pakistani society: The receptivity of youth to a liberal religious worldview

    No full text
    The reported rise in radicalism among youth in Pakistan since 9/11/2001 has been attributed to religious education in madrasas and schools. However, education in Pakistan is only part of the historical and contemporary forces that contribute to the prevailing exclusivist religio-political discourse. Although most policy papers have recommended a secularization of public education, such efforts by the Pakistani government have been counterproductive. These efforts by the Pakistani government to reshape education, with massive funding from international donors, have faced strong opposition and there are signs of psychological reactance as evidenced by even greater levels of religious radicalism among Pakistani youth. The current study suggests a viable alternative for reshaping education in Pakistan. A nationwide survey of educated urban youth (N = 386) conducted by the first author, revealed that when considering radical religious, Western secular and liberal religious ideas, Pakistani youth were overwhelmingly supportive of a liberal religious approach to education that highlights an inclusive Islam emphasizing freedom and compassion. Findings have implications for government reforms, peace education initiatives, and long-term conflict transformation in Pakistan
