    CONSTRAINING THE INFLATIONARY ENERGY SCALE FROM AXION COSMOLOGY

    No full text
    If the temperature after inflation is below the Peccei-Quinn energy scale f(a), the microwave background constraint on the spectrum P(a) of the primeval isocurvature axion density inhomogeneity can provide an upper bound on the inflationary potential V1 (the subscript 1 denotes the epoch when the observable universe leaves the horizon ). Recent work evaluates this bound for the entire regime of parameter space and the essential results are reported here. The crucial new finding is that during inflation the PQ field may be kicked out of the vacuum by its quantum fluctuation. leading to the production of strings which remove the bound. This typically happens if H-1 greater than or similar to f(a) where H-1 is the Hubble parameter. In the opposite case. the only degree of freedom during inflation is the axion field, whose quantum fluctuation is Gaussian. In that case the bound on P(a) is evaluated, taking into account the non-gaussian part of the density inhomogeneity (quadratic in the field) as well as the gaussian part (linear in the field).

    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
