Modernizem v Faulknerjevem romanu V smrtni uri
No full textV diplomski nalogi obravnavam modernistični roman ameriškega pisatelja Williama Faulknerja z naslovom V smrtni uri (As I Lay Dying, 1930). Avtor je eden glavnih predstavnikov modernizma v Ameriki. Poleg obsežnega literarnega opusa in delovanja v filmski industriji je pomembno tudi njegovo javno zavzemanje za enakopravnost črne rase in boljše razumevanje problematike ameriškega Juga nasploh. V ozadju dogajanja je predstavljena problematika ameriškega Juga v začetku 20. stoletja, ko se je belopolto podeželsko prebivalstvo soočalo z revščino, v družbi pa je bilo ves čas prisotno trenje med belo in črno raso, ki je kasneje vodilo v upor. Vsakdanje življenje je bilo poleg soočanja s težko ekonomsko situacijo ves čas prepleteno še z globoko protestantsko religioznostjo. Roman toka zavesti temelji na številnih notranjih monologih glavnih akterjev, ki so bolj ali manj vpleteni v predstavljeno dogajanje. Njihovi opisi so z rašomonsko tehniko povezani v celoto, katere sporočilo je večkrat težko razbrati zaradi nenehnega spreminjanja perspektive, časovnih preskokov in nekontroliranega, asociativnega nizanja misli. Jezik se giblje od visokih liričnih tonov, ki spominjajo na jezik Biblije, do pogovornega jezika ameriškega Juga.In diploma thesis I deal with a modernistic novel titled As I Lay Dying written in 1930 by American author William Faulkner. Faulkner is one of the main representatives of modernism in the USA. Besides his extensive opus and participation in the film industry, his public fighting for equal rights of black people and better understanding of the American South\u27s problematic is also important. The problematic of the American South in the 20th century is described in the background - white country people were facing poverty and the conflicts between white and black people were omnipresent and later led to revolt. Everyday life was interlaced with profound Protestant religiousness. People were dealing with a difficult economic situation. The stream-of-consciousness novel is based on numerous inner monologues of main characters, who are more or less involved with presented actions. Their descriptions are tied in a whole with Rashomon effect. The message of the whole is frequently hard to decipher due to the constant changes of perspective, time leaps and uncontrolled associative stringing of thoughts. The language of the novel moves between the elevated lyrical tones, which resemble Biblical language, and the spoken language of the American South. Key words: modernistic novel, stream of consciousness, interior monologue, American South, religion
Sports themed youth literature between 2000 and 2020
No full textMagistrska naloga izhaja iz seznama mladinske literature s športno vsebino, izdane med letoma 2000 in 2020, ki je bil oblikovan s pomočjo arhiva Priročnikov za branje kakovostnih mladinskih knjig, Cobissa in izbora otroških in mladinskih knjig ter strokovne literature na temo športa in gibanja, ki nastaja v okviru projekta Kulturni bazar. Prikazana je produkcija mladinske literature, ki tematizira šport in gibanje, in pregled naslovnikov, ki jim je taka literatura namenjana. Ugotovila sem, da na leto nastane približno deset besedil s športno tematiko, ki so najpogosteje namenjena osnovnošolcem. Na podlagi teorije o zvrsteh in vrstah v mladinski književnosti sem ugotovila, da je šport prisoten predvsem v realistični prozi, in sicer kratki prozi, slikanicah in mladinskih romanih. Poleg tega vsako leto nastane nekaj poučnih knjig o tej tematiki. Športna tematika prevladuje predvsem v tujih, prevedenih delih. V slovenski mladinski književnosti pa je najbolj ploden pisec del s športno tematiko Primož Suhodolčan. V mladinskem leposlovju in strokovnih knjigah so predstavljeni različni športi, vendar je nogomet šport, ki je največkrat tematiziran. Namen branja tovrstnih besedil je različen, in sicer sprostitev, učenje ter zgled in spodbuda za športne dejavnosti. V nadaljevanju sem opozorila, kako pomembni in podobni dejavnosti sta branje in gibanje ter kako ju lahko združimo v predšolskem in šolskem obdobju, da ustvarimo spodbudno okolje za njuno uresničevanje. V empiričnem delu sem s pomočjo ankete raziskovala, kakšen je odnos dijakov športnikov do branja literature s športno vsebino in njihov pogled na morebitne podobnosti med branjem in gibanjem. Ugotovila sem, da dijaki na splošno redko berejo leposlovje. Čeprav ima šport pomembno mesto v njihovem življenju, literaturo o njem berejo občasno, kljub temu da je to tematika, ki jo imajo v leposlovju najraje. Pogosteje o športu, športnikih in tekmovanjih berejo na spletu. Dijaki si želijo, da bi učitelji v pouk književnosti pogosteje vključevali literaturo, povezano s športom, saj so rezultati pokazali, da se v praksi to ne dogaja pogosto. Podobnost in povezanost med branjem in treniranjem so potrdili tudi dijaki. Čeprav branje razumejo kot eno izmed možnosti priprave na tekmo ali trening, se tega ne poslužujejo. Najpogosteje berejo biografije znanih športnikov, ki imajo nanje pozitiven vpliv in delujejo motivacijsko.This master\u27s thesis is based on the list of youth literature with sports themes published between 2000 and 2020. The list has been designed with the help of yearly Manuals for reading quality youth literature, Cobiss Platform and the selection of children and young adult literature as well as scientific literature concerning sports and activities, made under the patronage of Cultural Bazaar, a national cross-sectoral project aimed at promoting arts and cultural education. The thesis shows the production of youth literature with sports themes, also presenting an overview of the target audience. Based on the theory about genres of youth literature, I concluded that sports themes are present mainly in realistic literature, e.g. short stories, picture books and young adult novels. Approximatelly ten works of literature with sports themes are created annually, mostly targeting primary school audience. Every year few new popular science books about sports emerge on the bookshelves too. Majority of these books are translated. The most prolific Slovene author of this genre and category is Primož Suhodolčan.In the literature mentioned above, various sports are presented, with football leading the way. The purpose of reading books with sports themes is diverse, ranging from relaxation to learning and encouragement for becoming physically active. I wanted to focus on how essential reading and physical activity are and how much in common they have, especially in the preschool and school periods. That is why it is so crucial creating a stimulating environment for children, pupils and students. In the empirical part of the thesis, I presented the attitude of student-athletes towards reading sports literature and their view on the similarities between reading and physical activity. I found out that pupils rarely read fiction. Although sport has an integral part in their lives, they do not read sports literature very often. Most information about sports, athletes and competitions they get from the internet. It is also not very often that teachers would incorporate sports literature into the curriculum, although pupils expressed affinity towards it. The relationship between reading and physical activity was also recognized among students themselves. They understand the link and view the reading as one option for preparing for training but they usually skip it. But when they have time, they most often read biographies of famous athletes that have a positive and motivational impact
Frame-level intermodular configuration scrubbing of on-detector FPGAs for the Arich at Belle II
No full textOn-detector digital electronics in high-energy physics (HEP) experiments is increasingly being implemented by means of static random access memory (SRAM)-based field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), due to their reconfigurability, fast data processing, and transfer. Radiation-induced single-event upsets (SEUs) in the configuration hinder the correct operation, since they may alter the programmed routing paths and logic functions. In most data acquisition systems, data from clustered front-end modules are aggregated by a single board, which then transmits data to off-detector electronics for acquisition and triggering. In this work, we present a novel scrubber capable of correcting radiation-induced upsets in the configuration of SRAM-based FPGAs by majority voting across clustered modules. We designed it for the Aerogel Ring Imaging CHerenkov (ARICH) counter of the Belle II experiment at the KEK Laboratory, Tsukuba, Japan. We discuss the architecture of the system and its implementation in a Virtex-5 FPGA, in the aggregator board, for correcting the configuration of up to six Spartan-6 LX45 FPGAs, on pertaining front-end modules. We discuss results from neutron irradiation tests at the TRIGA reactor of the Jožef Stefan Institute, Ljubljana, Slovenia, which show that our solution corrects an average of 6.2 k upsets in each target FPGA before the failure of the scrubber. Moreover, with respect to the Xilinx soft error mitigation (SEM) controller, our design improved the mean time before failure of data readout by 30%

Use of Cherenkov light in TOF-PET
No full textThe time-of-flight resolution of PET scanners is limited by the timing spread due to delayed scintillation emission. By using prompt Cherenkov photons instead, the coincidence timing resolution can be improved. The improvement is limited by the photon travel time spread in the crystals. By segmenting the crystals, the remaining contribution is due to the intrinsic time resolution of the photosensors. In this contribution, we evaluate the feasibility of using lead fluoride in Cherenkov-light–based PET scanner with silicon photomultipliers. Due to a significantly lower price of lead fluoride compared to an L(Y)SO scintillator, such a scanner is a competitive option already with the use of current silicon photomultipliers which have a single photon time spread of around 100 ps
Measurement of and with a semileptonic tagging method
No full textInternational audienceThe experimental results on the ratios of branching fractions and , where denotes an electron or a muon, show a long-standing discrepancy with the Standard Model predictions, and might hint to a violation of lepton flavor universality. We report a new simultaneous measurement of and , based on a data sample containing events recorded at the resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB collider. In this analysis the tag-side meson is reconstructed in a semileptonic decay mode and the signal-side is reconstructed in a purely leptonic decay. The measured values are and , where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. These results are in agreement with the Standard Model predictions within , and standard deviations for , and their combination, respectively. This work constitutes the most precise measurements of and performed to date as well as the first result for based on a semileptonic tagging method
