Wang Shuo and the commercialisation of contemporary Chinese culture
Full text linkThis thesis examines the commercialisation of Chinese culture that has taken place over the past twenty years in mainland China. It explores the contribution of Wang Shuo, a cultural figure who straddles different fields of culture, moving from literature to the ultimate mass culture medium of television, this study plots Wang Shuo' s development from educational failure, to business failure, to fiction writer, film & TV editor, film director and cultural critic and analyst. His stories, films, TV series and articles have caused shock-waves throughout national cultural circles as he has transformed the terms of the debate from academic discourse to a validation of the role of the market in the culture field. Although Wang Shuo has not been labelled as a dissident, his approach to the culture market has had a more subversive effect on official ideology that those overt dissidents who have had to live in exile or have been imprisoned. He has utilised the language of official ideology to satirise the authorities, turning the ideology and its supporters into figures of fun. Yet his own goals have been strictly personal and economic ones. The authorities recognize the value of Wang Shuo's work in the cultural market but at the same time distrust his works and place him under strict censorship. Examining the way Wang Shuo and people surround him have succeeded in different fields of cultural achievement is a mirror to understanding the process of the transformation of contemporary Chinese culture from a socialist state-controlled culture to a market-oriented mass culture industry
Wang Meng and contemporary Chinese literature: the vicissitudes of a committed writer
Full text linkThis thesis examines the way Wang Meng has developed as a writer from the 1950s to the 1990s in the context of New China's political and literary background. It looks at the compromises he was forced to make between his political beliefs in the Communist Party and his chosen role as a professional writer. After his disastrous early foray into what was deemed to be unacceptable political criticism with The Young Newcomer in the Organisation Department in the 1950s, when the opportunity came to start publishing again in the late 1970s he was boldly innovative in style, helping to transform New Period literature, but conservative in content, sticking to politically acceptable topics. It was only with Hard Porridge in 1989 that he ventured again, and very successfully, into political comment. There is no outstanding leading writer in contemporary China, but Wang Meng is a leading contender for the title
Oceanogaphical and geological background
No full textThe South China Sea (SCS) embraces an area of about 3.5 x 106 km2 and extends from the Tropic of Cancer to the Equator, across over 20 degrees of latitude in the west Pacific. Since the last decade, the SCS has become the focus in studying the East Asian monsoon, like the Arabian Sea for the Indian monsoon (Wang B. et al. 2003). The SCS offers an ideal locality for high-resolution paleoceanographic researches in the low-latitude western Pacific because its hemipelagic sediments often register higher deposition rates and its carbonate compensation depth (CCD) is generally deeper than neighboring sea basins (Wang P. 1999).Pinxian Wang and Qianyu L

Embedded Data Librarianship: A Case Study of Providing Data Management Support for a Science Department
No full textThis case study details how a data services librarian and a science librarian collaborate to provide embedded data management support for the research-oriented Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at Rutgers University–Newark. Combining their familiarity with emerging professional practices and resources, their efforts to gain a deeper understanding of the specific data management needs of researchers in the department, and their research into the evolving research data infrastructure in that particular discipline, the two are able to successfully connect researchers with the best practices in data management, suitable data repositories, and experts in the campus’ Computing Services unit.This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis in Science & Technology Libraries, published online on 24 September 2015, available online: http://www.tandfonline.com/10.1080/0194262X.2015.1085348.Peer reviewe

Measurements of K S 0 - K L 0 asymmetries in the decays Λ c + → p K L , S 0 , p K L , S 0 π + π − and p K L , S 0 π 0
No full textAbstract Using e + e − annihilation data sets corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.5 fb −1, collected with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.600 and 4.699 GeV, we report the first measurements of the absolute branching fractions B Λ c + → p K L 0 = (1.67 ± 0.06 ± 0.04)%, B Λ c + → p K L 0 π + π − = (1.69 ± 0.10 ± 0.05)%, and B Λ c + → p K L 0 π 0 = (2.02 ± 0.13 ± 0.05)%, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. Combining with the known branching fractions of Λ c + → p K S 0 , Λ c + → p K S 0 π + π − , and Λ c + → p K S 0 π 0 , we present the first measurements of the K S 0 - K L 0 asymmetries R Λ c + K S , L 0 X = B Λ c + → K S 0 X − B Λ c + → K L 0 X B Λ c + → K S 0 X + B Λ c + → K L 0 X in charmed baryon decays: R Λ c + p K S , L 0 = − 0.025 ± 0.031 , R Λ c + p K S , L 0 π + π − = − 0.027 ± 0.048 and R Λ c + p K S , L 0 π 0 = − 0.015 ± 0.046 . No significant asymmetries with statistical significance are observed
