Railways and Nation Building: Continued Legacies
By Shraddha Bhatawadekar “It is not uncommon for a country to create a railway, but it is uncommon for a railway to create a country”. – Sir Charles Eliot The railway history is deeply intertwined with the discourses of nation building. The beginning of railways in the 19th century overlapped with the emergence of nation states. The railways also contributed significantly to their realisation as tools of development and unification. In the colonial context, the role of railways was rather co..

Here, I will focus on a specific type of Hamiltonian engineering technique based on the spectroscopic coupling of atomic states. I will describe how we use two-photon Bragg resonances to couple discrete momentum states of our BEC, forming a synthetic lattice of momentum states in one dimension. Taking advantage of the site-resolved control afforded by our synthetic lattice technique, I will show some experimental results regarding transport in a one-dimensional quasiperiodic mosaic lattice. I will then discuss two-dimensional momentum state lattices. Finally, I will offer prospective directions in leveraging atomic interactions to probe many-body topological physics and squeezed states in our experimental platform
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
Ahmedabad, Theory and city form
Thesis (M.S.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1987.MICROFICHE COPY AVAILABLE IN ARCHIVES AND ROTCH.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 89-91).The thesis seeks to formulate an approach to urban design intervention in the walled city of Ahmedabad, by first developing an understanding of the context. This is to be undertaken by applying the methodological tools suggested by two theories of city form, those of Kevin Lynch's "Theory of Good City Form" and N.J. Habraken's "Concept of Territory" which forms part of the book, "Transformations of the Site." In applying two different theories together to the city, the study endeavors to develop a more comprehensive understanding of the city. The exercise of applying theories to the city, also provides way of evaluating the theories, and their efficacy as methods for observing cities. The observations derived from the application of the theories, may be helpful as a basis for formulating strategies for urban design intervention in the walled city of Ahmedabad.by Shraddha Sejpal.M.S
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
