Electrical conductivities of pyrope-almandine garnets up to 19 Gpa and 1700°C
Electrical conductivities of polycrystalline garnets ranging in chemical composition from almandine
(Fe3Al2Si3O12) to pyrope (Mg3Al2Si3O12) were measured at 10 GPa and 19 GPa at temperatures ranging from 300 to 1700 °C using complex impedance spectroscopy in a multianvil device. Mössbauer
spectroscopy of each sample was carried out both before and after the electrical measurements to characterize the oxidation state of Fe in the almandine bearing garnets. Similar to the behavior of other ferromagnesian silicates, the substitution of Fe for Mg along this compositional join dramatically increases electrical conductivity, but this compositional effect is reduced with increasing temperature. Conductivities increase with increasing total Fe content, as the average Fe2+-Fe3+ distance decreases. At 10 GPa, activation energies for conductivity vary smoothly with composition and increase rapidly toward the pyrope end-member composition, where it reaches a value of 2.5 eV. The results are consistent
with an electrical conductivity mechanism involving small polaron mobility in the Fe-bearing
garnets at 10 GPa. At 19 GPa, however, there is virtually no change in the activation energy as a function
of Fe-Mg substitution for the pyrope-rich garnets. These higher pressure measurements reflect a mechanism involving oxygen related point defects, as conductivities increase with pressure at constant
T for each garnet, and the effect of pressure is greater for the more Mg-rich garnets. The data also allow for a more quantitative evaluation of the effect of chemical composition, specifically Fe-Mg substitution, on the electrical conductivity profi le of the mantle, using a recently developed laboratory-
derived model. We apply the model using these data to a portion of the transition zone between 520 and 660 km, in which we vary the garnet composition from Py100 to Py85Alm15. Although only
a minor effect on bulk mantle conductivity results, we conclude that the overall garnet composition may, however, be important in characterizing the magnitude of any EC discontinuity with respect to the above-lying mantle

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
Variations on the Author
“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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We 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
