No full textTitle: Measurement of Internal Field in Hafnium 177 in Gadolinium, Author: Fakhr-Un-Nisa Rafai, Location: ThodeAn alloy of 1% lutecium in 99% gadolinium was
made. The rotations of the angular correlation pattern
caused by the hyperfine fields acting on hafnium nuclei were
measured for the 208-113 keV and 71-250 keV cascades. Using
measured data the internal field acting on hafnium in
gadolinium and the g-factor for the 250 keV spin 11/2, second
excited state, were determined. The results are as follows:

Research output on terrorism by India and Pakistan: a bibliometric study
No full textPurposeThis study aims to explore the scholarly literature published on “Terrorism” by India and Pakistan and has an in-depth bibliometric analysis of its various facets.Design/methodology/approachData for the study were harvested from the “Web of Science” one of the widely used and trusted indexing and abstracting source used by research scholars all over the world. The search was confined to the literature published on “Terrorism” by India and Pakistan. A total of 125 results were retrieved and out of them 105 were found relevant. The data were later analyzed on different parameters.FindingsIndia and Pakistan have started to conduct and publish research on “Terrorism” since 1990. However, only five articles were published till 2000. Presently, out of total 105 publications, India contributed 57 (54 per cent) and Pakistan contributed 48 (46 per cent) articles on Terrorism. Majority of the articles (93 per cent) were contributed by the individual researchers without any financial support from the funding agencies. The authorship pattern of the articles revealed that 40.95 per cent (43) articles were contributed by single author, whereas 59.05 per cent (62) were authored in collaboration. In terms of research collaboration, Pakistani authors collaborated with authors of six nations of the world, whereas Indian authors collaborated only with researchers of three countries. Most of the research articles were published from the authors affiliated with universities and other higher educational institutions (64.76 per cent), followed by colleges (12.38 per cent) and other government departments. Most of the articles were published during last five years from 2011-2015 (52.38 per cent), followed by 2006-2010 (28.57 per cent). These articles were published in more than 80 journals and the majority were published from England (36, 34.29 per cent) followed by United States of America (26, 24.76 per cent) and Netherlands (13, 12.38 per cent) simultaneously.Research limitations/implicationsThe findings of the study need to be cautioned as the data were harvested from “Web of Science” only.Practical implicationsThe paper is useful for politicians, defense ministries, academicians, researchers and many other interested agencies such as human rights organizations or activists.Originality/valueThis is the first paper providing information on research output of India and Pakistan on Terrorism and will serve as bed rock for future research in the field.</jats:sec
Survey of the literature reading habits and preferences of adolescents : a study of a public school in India
No full textBackground. In the modern competitive age, reading is the cornerstone for success in all academic disciplines. Objective. The study sought to find out the literature reading habits and preferences of adolescent students, and the promotional tactics of authors to attract these students towards reading. Method. The data was collected in the Delhi Public School, Srinagar in India, from students of 11th and 12th classes (grades), aged between 14-16 years. A questionnaire survey was administered to 150 students who were systematically sampled. Results. The study found that adolescents of both genders like reading (69% of girls; 65% of boys) on electronic media. Adolescents have varied tastes in reading. Fiction is the most preferred genre of literature read by respondents, followed by non-fiction. However, girls have a greater preference for fiction compared to boys. Similarly boys have a greater preference for non-fiction compared to girls. Among the various genres of fiction, crime/detective is the most read genre, followed by realistic teen fiction. Romance and poetry are more popular among girls, whereas crime/detective, horror, and realistic teen fiction are more popular among boys. For non-fiction, the respondents generally read self-help/personality development books, followed by personalities and historical literature. Boys prefer to read about personalities whereas self-help/personality development is the first preference of girls. To attract adolescents, authors include aggression and violence, romantic language, explicit content (sexuality), and slang/crude language amongst other tactics in their writings (literature).Published versio
Celto-Iranica : The strange case of a carnyx in Parthian Nisa
No full textThe author discusses the frieze of an ivory rhyton among the 50 specimens found in Parthian Nisa in 1948. He particularly draws attention on the elder satyr playing a carnyx in the vicinity of a low hill where a goat flees, while a younger satyr is falling in the attempt to catch it, and two satyrs are menacing it by keeping a mastiff dog on leash. The author interprets the scene as a simulated hunt, by virtue of the exaggerated means employed, and suggests reading it as a ceremonial hunt in the context of Cybele’s cult, namely a criobolium, the earliest mentions of which are to be found in Pergamon during the third quarter of the 2nd century BC. This event fits in the likely chronology of the frieze at issue, and moreover points to the depiction of carnyces in Pergamon as a possible source for the knowledge of such instruments in Asia. In effect, carnyces are just exceptionally witnessed in Inner Asia, as they are allegedly Celtic instruments ; therefore, the Nisean depiction calls for further considerations on the provenance of the whole corpus of the ivory rhyta. This leads the author to deal with another delicate topic, the name of Cybele’s priests, the γάλλοι : the author supports the idea that they were thus called after the ethnonym of Gaulish people, who gained an eminent role in Cybele’s temple-town, Pessinous. The reading of the Nisean frieze may therefore provide a new glimpse onto a longstanding matter.Celto-Iranica : le cas étrange du carnyx de Nisa (pays des Parthes).
L’auteur analyse la frise d’un des 50 rhytons en ivoire découvertes à Nisa en 1948. Il examine particulièrement la figure du satyre âgé jouant du carnyx près d’un rocher où une chèvre s’est retirée, tandis qu’un jeune satyre trébuche en essayant de l’attraper et deux autres le menacent avec un gros chien en laisse. L’auteur interprète la scène comme une simulation de chasse en vertu des moyens excessifs qui sont employés, et suggère de le lire comme une chasse rituelle en rapport avec le culte de Cybèle, le criobolium, qui est mentionné la première fois à Pergame au troisième quart du
IIe siècle av. J. C. Cela s’accorde avec la datation possible du rhyton en question, et cela indique en outre Pergame comme une source probable pour la connaissance des carnyces
en Asie. Effectivement, les carnyces ne sont qu’exceptionnellement représentés en Asie Intérieure, comme il est normal pour des instruments typiquement celtiques. Par conséquent, la représentation de Nisa se prête à des considérations sur la provenance du répertoire entier des rhyta en ivoire. Ce qui conduit l’auteur à aborder un autre sujet très délicat, c’est-à-dire le titre des prêtres de Cybèle, les γάλλοι : l’auteur soutient l’hypothèse qu’ils sont ainsi appelés d’après l’ethnonyme des Gaulois, qui ont acquis un rôle éminent dans la ville-temple de Cybèle, Pessinonte. La lecture de la frise de Nisa peut donc donner un nouvel éclairage sur un ancien débat.Manassero Niccolò. Celto-Iranica : The strange case of a carnyx in Parthian Nisa.

The Politics of Global Governance in UN Peacekeeping
No full textThis article examines the allocation of roles and responsibilities in the construction of UN peacekeeping. The case is made that decision making in UN peacekeeping is not only fragmented between various states and institutional actors, but also critically lopsided, with an uneven distribution of responsibilities and the majority of political, military and strategic risks falling upon those countries least able to bear them – poor and weak states. States that hold decision-making power are not the states that have to implement those decisions. The article concludes by arguing that this governance structure is not a symptom of organizational dysfunction, but that it serves a political function by allowing influence to be wielded without risk
An Introduction to the Day-Trading of Equity Investment by Using Information Literacy
No full text単純な「局所的な極小値で買い、極大値で売る」手法のみを用いてNISAの初心者が株式投資するための売買タイミングについて調査した。その結果、NISAの初心者でも、どのようなタイミングで売買をしても平均的には1～3%程度の成功率を得られる事が解った。また、この手法では、最大で25.5%の成功率を得ることが出来るが、最悪の場合は4.9%の損をすることが解った。しかし、この結果が東京証券取引所に上場している全ての企業について同様に当てはまるかどうかは、別途、調査が必要である。この結果は、筆者が既に発表している3本の論文(川本勝2014、2015、2016)の結果とも矛盾しない。It was investigated about a "buying and selling timing" of equity investments for beginners of NISA by using only a simple "to buy in the local minimum value, to sell at themaximum value" method.As a result, it was found that even a beginner of NISA can obtain a success rate ofabout 1 to 3 % on average even if the buying and selling in any timing.Furthermore, in this method, it was found that although it is possible to obtain a successrate of 25.5% at the maximum, the worst case loss 4.9%.However, another inspection is necessary separately whether this finding comes underequally about all companies listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange.This result is consistent with the results of the three papers that the author already published(Kawamoto 2014, 2015,2016).3KJ00010289599論文Articledepartmental bulletin pape

Thesis, Departement of Japanese, Faculty of Humanities, Diponegoro University, Semarang. Advisor lecturer Zaki Ainul Fadli, SS, M.Hum.
The issue of gender injustice is interesting to be appointed because the problems involving women often occur in the community. The author wants to analyze how the struggle of female characters in gender inequality in the short story.
The purpose of this study is to reveal a form of gender injustice against women, revealing women's struggles and explaining the educational value that can be taken in this story. The author uses the theory of feminism to find gender inequalities that occur in the story and structural theory to examine the educational value contained in this story.
The results of research based on the theory of feminism, there are gender inequalities such as system marginalization, subordination and streotipe. Then, the form of women's resistance in the form, become independent women, and dare to refuse
FEM and fatigue life calculation using the PC-based NISA II/ENDURE -software package
No full textThe fatigue life prediction capability of the NISA II / ENDURE -software package is studied. The software is used to calculate the fatigue life of three types of specimens, which were all previously fatigue-tested in the laboratory. The overall properties of the NISA II finite element program are introduced. The fatigue analysis program ENDURE is introduced more comprehensively. ENDURE can be used for fatigue calculation with the FEM stress results or as a stand-alone program. The crack initiation calculation is based on the local strain approach, and crack propagation is predicted using fracture mechanics. The crack initiation calculation was tested in this context. The main reason for choosing the NISA II / ENDURE -program was that at the time of writing it was, as far as the author could tell, the only FEM-integrated fatigue life calculation program on the market. This is a very interesting feature and some other vendors have launched their own FEM-integrated fatigue programs during 1990. The other reason for choosing the program was the load description capabilities of ENDURE. Loads can be applied to a structure in various ways. Two main categories of loads are used: deterministic and stochastic loading. These are briefly dealt with in the report
El misterio de Dios: Su comunicación gratuita según «In Canticum Canticorum» de San Gregorio de Nisa
No full textThe question about the mystery of God and the form in which this mystery is communicated to man is the backbone of this brief study on one of the most emblematic works of San Gregorio de Nisa. After doing one succinct consideration on the notions of «mystery» and «mystic», the author dedicates himself to the study of the mystery of God in three moments: as concealment, as sacrament and as an event of salvation. More ahead the communication of the mystery of God is approached. In this part of the investigation the author speaks, on one hand, about the revelation of the mystery and, on another hand, about the teaching of it. Finally, he refers to mysticalness as an access road to the knowledge of the mystery of God.La pregunta por el misterio de Dios y la forma en que dicho misterio es comunicado al hombre es la columna vertebral de este breve estudio sobre una de las obras más emblemáticas de San Gregorio de Nisa. Después de hacer una sucinta consideración sobre las nociones de «misterio» y «místico», el autor se dedica estudiar el misterio de Dios en tres momentos: como ocultamiento, como sacramento y como acontecimiento de salvífico. Más adelante aborda la comunicación del misterio de Dios. En esta parte de la investigación el autor se refiere, por una parte, a la revelación del misterio y, por otra, a la enseñanza del mismo. Finalmente se refiere a la mística como vía de acceso al conocimiento del misterio de Dios
