Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
Measurement of the ratio of branching fractions B(B0→K∗0γ )/B(B0s→φγ ) and the directCP asymmetry inB 0→K∗0γ
No full textThe ratio of branching fractions of the radiative B decays B0→K⁎0γ and B0s→ϕγ has been measured using an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb−1 of pp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of s√=7TeV. The value obtained is
B(B0→K⁎0γ)B(B0s→ϕγ)=1.23±0.06(stat.)±0.04(syst.)±0.10(fs/fd),
where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is the experimental systematic uncertainty and the third is associated with the ratio of fragmentation fractions fs/fd. Using the world average value for B(B0→K⁎0γ), the branching fraction B(B0s→ϕγ) is measured to be (3.5±0.4)×10−5.
The direct CP asymmetry in B0→K⁎0γ decays has also been measured with the same data and found to be
ACP(B0→K⁎0γ)=(0.8±1.7(stat.)±0.9(syst.))%.
Both measurements are the most precise to date and are in agreement with the previous experimental results and theoretical expectations
Voice Compression and Communications: Principles and Applications for Fixes and Wireless Channels
No full textUp-to-date, expert coverage of topics in wireless voice communications Voice communication is the most important facet of mobile radio service. Even when the predicted surge of wireless data and Internet services becomes a reality, voice will remain the most natural means of human communication. Voice Compression and Communications details issues in wireless voice communications and treats compression, channel coding, and wireless transmission as a joint subject. Part I covers background material, whereas Part II provides detailed information on both proprietary and standardized analysis-by-synthesis codecs, including the speech codecs of virtually all existing wireline-based and wireless systems. Parts III and IV discuss mainly research-based wideband, audio, as well as very low-rate schemes likely to find their way into future standards. Voice Compression and Communications describes fundamental concepts in a non-mathematical way early in the book for those with only a background knowledge of signal processing and communications. More advanced readers will find detailed discussions of theoretical principles, future concepts, and solutions to various specific wireless voice communications problems
Uncertainty principles for the Weinstein transform
No full textsummary:The Weinstein transform satisfies some uncertainty principles similar to the Euclidean Fourier transform. A generalization and a variant of Cowling-Price theorem, Miyachi's theorem, Beurling's theorem, and Donoho-Stark's uncertainty principle are obtained for the Weinstein transform

Many-electron theory of resonant charge transfer: Role of surface states in He and He+ scattering off Si(100)
No full textA many-electron theory of resonant charge transfer, originally formulated for the scattering of an atom with an empty valence orbital from a surface, is extended to treat the case where the valence orbital is initially occupied by one or two electrons. The scattering of He and He+ from the Si(001) surface is investigated. The interaction is assumed to be with the narrow band of surface states, and not the much wider bulk band. As a result, considerable oscillations are found in the ionization and/or neutralization probabilities as a function of the incident energy.PT: J; CR: AMOS AT, 1989, ADV CHEM PHYS, V76, P335 AMOS AT, 1989, SOLID STATE COMMUN, V71, P449 BLOSS W, 1978, SURF SCI, V72, P277 BRAKO R, 1981, SURF SCI, V108, P253 BURROWS BL, 1984, Q APPL MATH, V42, P73 BURROWS BL, 1990, J PHYS A-MATH GEN, V23, P1101 BURROWS BL, 1991, SURF SCI, V253, P365 CHADI DJ, 1975, PHYS STATUS SOLIDI B, V68, P405 HAGSTRUM HD, 1954, PHYS REV, V96, P336 HAGSTRUM HD, 1961, PHYS REV, V122, P83 HERMAN F, 1963, ATOMIC STRUCTURE CAL IHM J, 1980, PHYS REV B, V21, P4592 MUDA Y, 1980, SURF SCI, V97, P283 MUDA Y, 1988, NUCL INSTRUM METH B, V33, P388 MUDA Y, 1988, PHYS REV B, V37, P7048 PAULING L, 1935, INTRO QUANTUM MECHAN ROBERTS N, 1990, SURF SCI, V236, P112 SOUDA R, 1985, SURF SCI, V150, L59 SOUDA R, 1986, NUCL INSTRUM METH B, V15, P114 SOUDA R, 1986, NUCL INSTRUM METH B, V15, P138 SOUDA R, 1986, SURF SCI, V176, P657 SULSTON KW, 1988, PHYS REV B, V37, P9121 SULSTON KW, 1988, SURF SCI, V197, P555 SULSTON KW, 1989, SURF SCI, V244, P543 WEAKLIEM PC, 1990, SURF SCI, V232, L219 WEISENDANGER R, 1990, SURF SCI, V232, P1; NR: 26; TC: 4; J9: PHYS REV B; PG: 11; GA: HZ245Source type: Electronic(1
