High-temperature magnetisation behaviour of rapidly solidified Cu(100-x)Co(x) alloys
Melt-spun granular alloys, consisting of nanosized magnetic particles dispersed in a nonmagnetic matrix have been extensively investigated due to the presence of a relevant resistance variation under an applied magnetic field (GMR). The GMR intensity measured in rapidly solidified Cu(100-x)Co(x) ribbons (x = 5 to 25%) depends not only on the nominal composition of the alloy but also on microstructural parameters. In this work, the magnetisation behavior of Cu(100-x)Co(x) melt-spun ribbons has been studied as a function of temperature in tempering condition. A different magnetisation behavior has been identified as a function of Co content. The deviations from the low-temperature Langevin law are investigated for all the studied alloys
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
Nanostructured Materials For Soft-magnetic Applications Produced By Fast Dc Joule Heating
Amorphous Fe73.5Nb3Cu1Si13.5B9 ribbons were submitted to fast direct current (dc) Joule-heating treatment in vacuum. The electrical resistance in the course of fast Joule heating displays distinctive features during the development of the nanocrystalline phase, which are explained using a recently developed theoretical model. The experimental parameters of the current annealing were optimized in order to obtain ductile soft magnetic materials using very high heating rates
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
Correlation effects among nanometre-sized clusters in Cu-Co melt-spun alloys with giant magnetoresistance
Magnetic correlation effects in nearly superparamagnetic granular Cu100-xCox systems exhibiting giant magnetoresistance (GMR) are studied by analysing the flat-top parabolae obtained when the GMR is plotted as a function of reduced magnetization. The nature of GMR in granular metallic systems is discussed in detail, taking into account the typical time constants involved in the short-time dynamics of magnetic moments in a local magnetic field. An outline of a theory providing the first quantitative explanation of the effect of magnetic correlation on GMR is given. The role of Co content in the sizes and distances of Co particles and in their degree of magnetic correlation are discussed, examining, for studied composition each, the samples characterized by the best GMR values
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
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
