Development of diagnostic and manipulation systems for space-charge dominated electron beams and confined electron plasmas in ELTRAP
No full textModifications have been implemented in the Penning-Malmberg device ELTRAP aimed
at performing studies on the dynamics of space-charge dominated nanosecond electron bunches traveling along the magnetic field. In particular, a Thomson backscattering apparatus has been developed where an infrared (IR) laser pulse collides with the bunched electron beam. The frequency-shifted
backscattered radiation, acquired by means of a photomultiplier (PMT), can be exploited to evaluate information on energy, energy spread and density of the bunch. The achievable sensitivity
of the diagnostics has been estimated, and valuable information on the main parameters affecting the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio has been obtained [B. Paroli, F. Cavaliere, M. Cavenago, F. De Luca, M. Ikram, G. Maero, C. Marini, R. Pozzoli, and M. Romé, JINST 7, P01008 (2012)]. A series of upgrades are under way, aimed at increasing the S/N ratio through the use of a new laser for the electron source, the insertion of a stray light shield, and the optimization of the detection electronics. Moreover, electromagnetic simulations relevant to the design and implementation of a microwave
heating system are presented. The generation of an electron plasma in ELTRAP by means of a low-power radio frequency (RF) drive in the MHz range applied on one of the trap electrodes and under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions has previously been demonstrated [B. Paroli, F. De Luca,
G. Maero, F. Pozzoli, and M. Romé, Plasma Sources Sci. Technol. 19, 045013 (2010)]. The new heating system will allow the extension of the RF studies to the GHz range and in particular the
production of a more energetic electron plasma via cyclotron resonant excitation

Nondestructive evaluation of residual stresses in nanostructured coatings by synchotron radiation:
No full textThis thesis presents a strain mapping in nanostructure Al2O3/TiO2 ceramic coatings on metallic Titanium substrates by synchrotron radiation. The mapping is obtained under various boundary conditions (tension/compression loads, four-point bending, etc.) and is accomplished using high energy (deeply penetrating) synchrotron white radiation with photon energies up to 200 keV to perform high precision x-ray diffraction on small volumes (1 µm to a few cm), which are then integrated into high resolution 3D maps of the strain fields. Strain mapping in conventional micro-size ceramic coatings are performed for comparison. The underlining structural and functional parameters in processing of these coatings, which result in dramatic improvements in their performance, are discussed. The thesis also presents mechanical properties such as elastic modulus, yield strength, etc., which are deduced from energy dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDXRD) strain mapping in conjunction with modeling.M.S.Includes bibliographical referencesby Nazia Ikram Ahmed
Pengalaman NGO ikram dalam pembangunan pendidikan Islam di Malaysia: Kajian konseptual
No full textKajian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pendekatan pendidikan yang dibawa oleh IKRAM Malaysia melalui analisis kandungan dokumen utama, penulisan watak dan laporan program pendidikan dari tahun 2020 hingga 2023. Lima tema utama telah dikenal pasti melalui analisis sepuluh sumber utama. Pertama, pendidikan IKRAM berteraskan konsep pendidikan Islam holistik yang menggabungkan aspek intelek, rohani, emosi dan sosial. Kedua, peranan guru dilihat bukan hanya sebagai pendidik, tetapi sebagai murabbi dan pemimpin nilai yang berperanan membentuk legitimasi pelajar. Ketiga, pendidikan dijadikan sebagai instrumen dakwah dan islah sosial melalui program kemasyarakatan khususnya dalam kalangan masyarakat B40. Keempat, sejak 2022, akan wujud integrasi nilai-nilai Madani seperti belas kasihan, hormat-menghormati dan amanah dalam kerangka pendidikan IKRAM, selaras dengan keperluan semasa masyarakat Malaysia. Kelima, pasca-pandemik menyaksikan peralihan dalam strategi ke arah pendidikan digital dan hibrid yang lebih fleksibel dan mampan. Kajian ini merumuskan bahawa pendekatan pendidikan IKRAM adalah dinamik, responsif dan berasaskan nilai, menjadikannya model pendidikan Islam kontemporari yang holistik dan relevan dengan kehendak zaman

No full textIMAM FADLI. 2017. Perencanaan Rekrutmen Tenaga Pendidik Di Yayasan
Pesantren Islam AL-Ikram Kecamatan Palangga Kabupaten Gowa. Skripsi. Di
bimbing oleh Drs. M. Bachtiar, M.Si Dr. Andi Nurohmah, M.Pd Jurusan
Administrasi Pendidikan, Fakultas Ilmu Pendidikan, Universitas Negeri Makassar.
Penelitian ini mengkaji tentang perencanaan rekrutmen tenaga pendidik di Yayasan
Pesantren Islam Al-Ikram Kab. Gowa. Fokus penelitian adalah bagaimana
perencanaan rekrutmen tenaga pendidik di Yayasan Pesantren Islam Al-Ikram
Keecamatan Pallangga Kabupaten Gowa. Berdasarkan fokus penelitian tersebut maka
penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperoleh gambaran umum perencanaan rekrutmen
tenaga pendidik di Yayasan Pesantren Al-Ikram Kab. Gowa. Pendekatan yang
digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan kualitatif yaitu menggambarkan
fenomena yang terjadi dalam bentuk deskriptif. Sumber informan dalam penelitian ini
adalah direktur yayasan, Kabag Humas Yayasan, Kepala Sekolah SD, Kepala
Sekolah SMP, Kepala Sekolah SMA. Teknik pengumpulan data berupa wawancara,
dokumentasi dan observasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: Perencanaan
rekrutmen tenaga pendidik di Yayasan Pesantren Islam Al-Ikram yaitu : mulai dari
analisis kebutuhan tenaga pendidik, kriteria dan persyaratan calon tenaga, kebijakan,
bentuk tes yang dilaksanakan, penjadwalan, kemudian anggaran. Calon tenaga
pendidik diyayasan ini juga di prioritaskan yang mampu baca tulis Al-Quran dan
mampu berbahasa inggris dan arab, kemudian bentuk tes yang diterapkan yaitu tes
baca tulis al-quran, tes potensi Kejuruan (TKP), computer based tes (CBT), micro
teaching (MT), dan wawancara. Dalam penerimaan tenaga pendidik juga
mempertimbangkan pengalaman kerja atau pengalaman mengajar minimal 2 tahun
