    Digital transformation of the Pharmaceutical Industry: A future research agenda for management studies

    No full text
    Despite the widespread attention given to Digital Transformation (DT), there is a notable lack of comprehensive knowledge concerning its implications within the Pharmaceutical Industry (PI), particularly from a Management Studies perspective. This research employs a Systematic Literature Review approach, utilizing an initial review of 404 articles (which resulted in the identification of 35 relevant papers) to propose a comprehensive Future Research Agenda focusing on key technologies driving PI-DT and addressing the major gaps in current literature. Specifically, four primary research directions are delineated in the areas of (I) Operations Management, (II) Strategic Management, (III) Organization's Theory, and (IV) Stakeholder's Theory. In conclusion, the Literature Review addresses the underdeveloped field of PI-DT in Management Studies, offering the theoretical foundation for further scholarly inquiry and knowledge development in this field

    Charged pion albedo induced by cosmic antiproton interactions with the lunar surface

    No full text
    We report the calculations of the energy spectra and fluxes of single and double albedo charged pions generated by cosmic proton and antiproton interactions with the lunar surface. Properties of such spectra and related fluxes are investigated in order to clarify some important facets of the antiproton detection via charged pion albedo flux from the lunar surface. Pion albedo measurement may represent a novel approach for the identification of cosmic antiprotons using the lunar surface as a calorimeter. Future scientific programs on the Moon designed to measure antiproton flux may benefit from the results of these calculations

    Performance of a time-of-flight silicon strip telescope in the temperature range 20oC20^{o}C to 55oC-55^{o}C

    A cold silicon strip telescope for time-of-flight determination at −55°C has been tested using a hadron beam at Saturne II. Saclay. We present performance tests of the telescope, the time-of-flight distributions between pairs of silicon hodoscopes and their dependence on temperature. A detailed description of the apparatus, the refrigerator system and the calibration procedures is also reported. A linear relationships between the time resolution and the temperature of the apparatus is measured. An improvement of a factor 2 in the time-of-flight resolution is observed when the temperature decreases from +20°C to −55°

    Cold silicon detectors for time-of-flight measurements

    The advantages of using cold silicon detectors and cold electronic readout for time-of-flight measurements are presented. We show how the operation of silicon strip detectors and associated electronic readout at low temperature (−55°C) allows the reduction of several noise components with respect to the operation at room temperature. Measurements are reported for single silicon strip detectors displaying the compression of the rise time of charge pulse at low temperature. A noise reduction with temperature of a cold silicon detector was also measured in a testing device operated at −20°C. The measured width of the energy loss distribution of90Sr electrons traversing 300 μm silicon detector thickness improves by 10% for temperature variations from +20°C to −20°C

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    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
