    At this work is conducted an experimental study of dc magnetometry and ac electrical resistivity about the effects of substitution of Y for Ca up to 10% in YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-δ structure on the magnetic irreversibility, T (H) and zero electric resistance, T 0 (H) temperatures. The Y 1-x Ca x Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7-δ irr (x = 0, 0,01 e 0,1) single crystals were prepared by self flux technique and the dc magnetization and magnetoresistance measurements were conducted respectively with a SQUID and a PPMS measurement systems. Magnetic fields up to 50kOe were applied parallel to the c axis of single crystals. The magnetoresistance transition of the McCa1% sample displayed a strong inhomogeneous character which was not reproduced to the McCa10% sample. The observation of this particular character to the McCa1% sample was attributed to the possible underdoped oxygen level of its structure. The magnetic irreversibility line (MIL) behavior of doped samples at the H-T diagram was characterized by predominance of the Josephson vortices dynamic to H ≤ 1kOe and to H > 1kOe the MIL was ruled by the Abrikosov vortices dynamic. In this scenario the MIL behavior to H ≤ 1kOe is interpreted by the superconducting glass model take into account the spin glass magnetic irreversibility analogy. In contrast, the MIL behavior to H > 1kOe is described by the giant flux creep (gfc) model. The gfc model was applied to the MIL interpretation of the YBa 2 Cu 3 O (McY) singlecrystal in its H-T diagram entirety. In the doped samples the T 7-δ irr (H) and T (H) correlation has been shown discordant to H ≤ 5kOe. This particular behavior suggests that these temperatures depend of different parts of sample as could be expected to a granular superconductor when the T irr 0 (H) is ruled by the interconnectivity established between the superconducting regions (grains) of the sample and the T (H) is ruled by the percolation of superconducting grains arrays over of cross section area of the sample. In contrast, the T 0 irr (H) and T (H) are identical to H > 5kOe what agrees to Abrikosov vortices dynamics preponderance on the high magnetic field regime.A presente dissertação consiste na realização um estudo experimental de magnetometria DC e resistividade elétrica AC sobre os efeitos da substituição de até 10% do Y por Ca no sistema YBa 2 Cu sobre a correlação entre as temperaturas de irreversibilidade magnética, T (H) e resistência elétrica nula, T 0 (H). Os monocristais de Y 1-x Ca x Ba 2 3 O Cu (x = 0, 0,01 e 0,1) foram crescidos pela técnica de auto-fluxo e as medidas de magnetização DC e magnetoresistência AC foram realizadas com os auxílios de um SQUID e de um PPMS onde H ≤ 50kOe foram aplicados paralelamente ao eixo cristalográfico c dos monocristais. A transição magnetoresistiva da amostra McCa1% exibiu um caráter fortemente inomogêneo o qual não se mostrou tão intenso para a amostra McCa10%, sendo esta diferença atribuída ao caráter subdopado em oxigênio da amostra McCa1%. A linha de irreversibilidade magnética (LIM) das amostras dopadas mostraram-se dominadas pela dinâmica de vórtices de Josephson para H ≤ 1kOe e pela dinâmica de vórtices de Abrikosov quando H > 1kOe foram aplicados. Desta forma, o comportamento da LIM para H ≤ 1kOe é interpretado pelo modelo de vidro supercondutor levando em consideração a analogia com a irreversibilidade magnética dos vidro de spin. Por outro lado, para H > 1kOe o comportamento da LIM passa a ser descrito pelo modelo “flux creep” gigante comportamento esse que foi reproduzido de todo o diagrama H-T do monocristal de YBa 2 Cu 3 O (McY). Nas amostras dopadas a correlação entre T irr (H) e T 0 7-δ (H) mostrou-se discordante para H ≤ 5kOe. Este comportamento sugere que estas temperaturas dependam de diferentes partes da amostra, ou seja, enquanto T (H) depende da interconectividade dos anéis de regiões supercondutoras, T irr (H), por sua vez, depende da percolação das estruturas anteriores ao longo da seção transversal dos monocristais. Por outro lado, T irr (H) e T 0 0 (H) mostram-se coincidentes para H > 5kOe o que está de acordo com a preponderância da dinâmica de Abrikosov para este patamar de campo magnético aplicado

    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
