    Padova marchesca: precisazioni e aggiunte al 'corpus' dei leoni veneti

    No full text
    Per molte ragioni legate alla sua posizione geografica, alle vicende storiche e alle funzioni assegnatele dalla Dominante, Padova ha sempre avuto una posizione di preminenza nell'ambito dello 'Stato da terra', da cui è conseguita una pervasiva presenza in città del simbolo marciano, tanto da farne il centro urbano figurativamente più marchesco, dopo Venezia, dell'intero territorio della Repubblica. La sistematica ricerca sviluppata dagli autori nel corso degli anni ha condotto all'identificazione di numerosi esemplari, sia antichi (ancora esistenti o semplicemente documentati) che moderni, del leone marciano, che erano finora sfuggiti alla catalogazione, tanto che le addizioni che si presentano in questa sede costituiscono, rispetto al corpus padovano pubblicato in Rizzi 2001, un incremento di quasi il 56% delle opere antiche e dell'80% esatto delle opere moderne, con manufatti in molti casi ascrivibili a tipologie iconografiche assai rare o del tutto sconosciute o, nel caso delle opere moderne, frutto di originali reinterpretazioni di modelli antichi. Il contributo è arricchito da due appendici, dedicate rispettivamente a una prima catalogazione dei vessilli marciani conservati presso il Museo Bottacin di Padova e alla trascrizione e sintetico commento di un documento del 1729 che getta nuova luce su una particolare classe di 'moleche' padovane (i civici delle case di proprietà pubblica), ora superstiti in pochi esemplari ma originariamente presenti in città in almeno una quarantina di pezzi

    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

    2.Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of the mixed-ligand complex [Gd(F3CCO2)3(phen)2(H2O)]

    The mononuclear gadolinium mixed-ligand complex [Gd(CF3CO2)3(phen)2(H2O)] has been prepared and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Two complex molecules are doubly bridged by H bonds between carboxylate and aqua ligands with a Gd−Gd separation of 7.16(1) Å. Magnetic susceptibility and EPR measurements showed weak magnetic exchange coupling of the 3D type.Fil: Rizzi, Alberto Claudio. Universidad Nacional del Litoral.

    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
