Toward the detection of gravitational waves
No full textDetection of the gravitational waves predicted by the theory of general relativity is still an open experimental venture. Several detectors designed for the frequency range between 10 Hz and 10 kHz are being built. Their expected sensitivity is near the required level for the detection of realistic astrophysical events. The expected signals and the main sources of noise are discussed together with perspectives in detector improvement. (C) 2000 Academie des sciences/Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS

No full textThe experimental situation on αs (M2Z) is reviewed. A good agreement between the different approaches L• observed with a combined value αs (M2Z) = 0.1192±0.0020. Particular emphasis is given to the very recent determination from hadronic T decays by ALEPH, yielding the most precise value to date: the low energy scale involved requires some care, but the approach is validated by tests on the data exploiting the information contained in the measured vector and axial-vector spectral functions. It turns out that these results have motivated a new approach to the calculations of hadronic vacuum polarisation, providing a significant improvement in their precision. The value found for the QED coupling at the Z scale α−1(M2z) = 128.933 ± 0.015exp ± 0.015,, allows the derivation of more stringent bounds on the Higgs mass MH=(83+61−38) GeV/c2 through the global electroweak fit. The new determination of the hadronic contribution to the muon magnetic anomaly ahadμ = (692.4 ± 5.6.,p ± 2.6,,) x 10−10 has a precision such that it does not prevent anymore the experimental investigation of the weak contribution to aµ
Studying indirect translation : a conversation with and between L. Davier, M. Marin-Lacarta and F. Pochhacker
No full textFocused on key issues in researching indirect translation, this article presents a dialogue with and between three scholars from different branches of Translation Studies: news translation, interpreting and literary translation. The aim of this dialogue is to address fundamental questions concerning the history of indirect translation studies, the methodological challenges faced by researchers investigating this practice, and the impact of English as a lingua franca and recent advancements in machine translation on the quality and future of indirect translations. This intra-disciplinary exchange allows us to identify unique perspectives and potential blind spots in approaches to indirect translation within specific branches of Translation Studies. At the same time, the dialogue sheds light on the various overlaps and complementarities between these approaches. We hope that the insights gained from this dialogue will not only deepen our understanding of indirect translation as a field of practice and research but also foster opportunities for future intra-disciplinary collaborations
