Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Study and characterization of mural paintings from XIX century in noble venetian (Italy) palace
No full textThe present paper describes the characterization carried out on the roof of a private palace located in the historical center of Venice (Italy). We focused our attention on the studies of original constituent materials (pigments and binders), in order to identify the pictorial technique of the artist and verify the stylistic attribution to Giuseppe Borsato, a Venetian painter operating between 18th and 19th century. Characterization of collected samples was carried on using both conventional and advanced analytical techniques, such as Optical Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy coupled with Energy Dispersive X-Ray (SEM-EDS) microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) coupled with photodiode array detection (DAD) and Mass Spectrometry (MS). The finding of dating pigments (such as Cobalt blue and Cu-As based green) and of a complex binding's mixture compatible with the considered supposed period, allowed us to confirm the attribution hypothesis.

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
An X-ray absorption spectroscopy investigation of the formation of FeCo alloy nanoparticles in Al2O3 xerogel and aerogel Matrixes
No full textExtended X-ray absorption fine structure and X-ray absorption near-edge structure techniques were used to study in detail the structural characteristics of FeCo-Al2O3 nanocomposite xerogels and aerogels. The fort-nation of bcc FeCo alloy, which cannot be assessed unambiguously by X-ray diffraction, dispersed within the alumina matrix was evidenced in the final samples obtained by heat treatment at 800 degrees C in reducing atmosphere. Aerogel samples reduced below 800 degrees C still present a fraction of oxidized metal together with the bcc alloy. The investigation of the xerogels and aerogels calcined at increasing temperature indicates that Fe(111) and Co(II) ions are present and they are located in the tetrahedral sites of the spinel structure of the matrix (gamma-Al2O3); moreover, the precursor of the spinel is more ordered in the aerogel sample than the xerogel sample
