    Tyt. z nagłówka.Pozostali autorzy artykuł: M. K. Aouf, A. A. M. Hassan, A. H. Hassan.Bibliogr. s. 280.In this paper we introduce a unified representation of starlike and convex harmonic functions with negative coefficients, related to uniformly starlike and uniformly convex analytic functions. We obtain extreme points, distortion bounds, convolution conditions and convex combinations for this family.Dostępny również w formie drukowanej.KEYWORDS: harmonic, analytic, univalent, sense-preserving, extreme points

    Natural radiological characterization at the Gabal El Seila region (Egypt)

    Stream sediment is a useful raw material used for building construction, mostly used in the desert parts of the world. Such sediment is a Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM), and, hence, it requires a radiological characterization to be used. This work aims to study the natural radioactivity in fifty points distributed in surface of stream sediments in the area of Gabal El Seila region, south-eastern desert of Egypt, since there is a lack of information about the radioactivity levels of the sediment samples from such recent growing interest area. The activity concentration of 238U, 232Th and 4 K natural radionuclides using a portable RS-230 γ-ray spectrometer were determined. Mean values are 38.51 ± 10.83, 33.35 ± 8.82, 659.18 ± 110.87 Bq/kg for 238U, 232Th, 4 K respectively. Radiological hazard indexes were computed and compared with the UNSCEAR and other worldwide ranges. All the results are statistically presented and discussed. They show that no significant radiation hazard coming from the studied area, with the most values lower than international recommended limits. The achievements of the present study fall within the measurements of natural environmental radiation in an unexplored area of great interest being a desert. The obtained results can be used as database for future research, and as tool for radiological awareness in the use of sediments as raw material

    Cataglyphis laylae Collingwood nov. spec. Plates 96–103 Cataglyphis desertorum Forel, 1894, teste Collingwood, 1985; unavailable name according to Agosti (1990). Specimens examined: Holotype: 1 ☿, United Arab Emirates, al-Ain [24°13'N 55°46'E], iii.1995, leg. C.A. Collingwood (MHNG). Paratypes: 3 ☿, al-Ain zoo, 13.iii.2005, CAC. 1 ☿, Remah, 9.iii.1995, CCA. 3 ☿, Remah, resthouse, 250 m, irrigated sand dune [24°10'37"N 55°18'6"E], 18.iii.1995, leg. D. Agosti. 6 ☿, Remah, resthouse, 250 m, irrigated sand dune, nest with one entrance, [24°10'37"N, 55°18'6"E], 18.iii.1995, leg. D. Agosti. 1 ☿, Sharjah Desert Park, 5–6.x.2004, AvH; 1 ☿, 3.iii.2005, CAC. 1 ☿, al- Za'aba, 100 m, sandy soil with Rhaisa stricta [23°43'20"N, 55°33'49"E], 22.iii.1995, leg. D. Agosti. Description: A large worker from al-Ain was selected as holotype. The measurements are as follows: total length 8.40; head width 3.60; head length 4.20; scape length 3.84; funicular segment I 0.40; funicular segment II 0.23; petiole length 1.10; petiole width 0.72. Colour dark reddish brown. There are no exterior hairs on the scapes or hind tibia. The gaster, petiole and propodeum have dorsal hairs. Remarks: This species thought to correspond with C. desertorum has to be described as a new species. In fact it is one of the commonest Cataglyphis in southern Arabia. The main distinguishing feature compared with other dark Cataglyphis is the slender petiole, which has the anterior face more sloped than in other similar species such as C. niger (André, 1882) and C. savignyi (Dufour, 1862). Biology: Cataglyphus laylae nov. spec. does not appear to occur in open sandy desert and is most abundant in disturbed habitats such as man-developed plantations and open cultivated fields. Distribution: This species was recorded by Collingwood (1985) as C. desertorum from Saudi Arabia and Oman and as Cataglyphis spec. by Collingwood & Agosti (1996). Etymology: The new species is named after a village settlement called “Layla”, just north of Riyadh (Saudi Arabia) in the area where the author (CAC) first encountered it in numbers in an Acacia plantation.Published as part of Cedric A.

    L’islam in Italia e le carceri

    No full text
    Esiste un islam europeo? Larga parte dell’opinione pubblica in Europa ha una percezione negativa dei musulmani, dovuta alla paura per gli attacchi terroristici e al racconto allarmista dell’immigrazione islamica, considerati così due fenomeni correlati. Tutto ciò genera forme di islamofobia con ricadute dagli alti costi sociali, sia per quel che riguarda il processo di integrazione sia – paradossalmente – per la stessa lotta alla radicalizzazione. L’Europa ha la storia e le risorse per produrre modelli di inclusione capaci di disinnescare questa spirale di conflitti sociali interconnessi. Le voci autorevoli raccolte nel volume mostrano la realtà poco conosciuta dei “musulmani d’Europa” e indicano la strada di un’integrazione possibile
