    Hadronic processes after Fermi

    Full text link
    After more than 4 years of data taking, the Fermi-LAT has collected many evidences of hadronic accelerations in some galactic sites. Among the most promising sources are the remnants of Supernovae explosions. A first tentative of cataloging the gamma GeV-TeV emission from Supernovae Remnants (SNRs) is in progress, in terms of efficiency of the process, maximum energy available and spectral features, in dependence of the age of the remnant and its environment. Using Kamae et al 2006 [1] parametrization we have interpreted the observed gamma-ray emission as originated in hadronic scenario, estimating the neutrino flux from the most promising SNRs is estimated. © 2013 Elsevier B.V

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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
