    Sakamoto Ryoma: the Nietzschean hero of the Meiji Restoration

    No full text
    This thesis is a Nietzschean analysis of Meiji Restoration hero Sakamoto Ryoma (1835 - 1867). It discusses the life and times of Sakamoto and basic theories of Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900). It argues that despite vastly different historical, cultural, and ideological backgrounds, Sakamoto and Nietzsche were modern men with similar ideas, and that Sakamoto lived those ideas. The author demonstrates that Sakamoto perceived Confucianism-based social and political systems under Tokugawa feudalism as threatening to Japan’s sovereignty in an age of Western imperialism, and that through a Nietzschean “will to power” and resolve to “live dangerously” he helped overthrow the Tokugawa Shogunate. The paper compares Sakamoto’s rejection of Confucian-samurai values with Nietzsche’s rejection of Christian values, and Nietzsche’s announcement of the death of God with Sakamoto’s heralding of the death of Tokugawa feudalism. Pointing out the importance that Sakamoto and Nietzsche placed on truth, individualism, self-reliance, and self-determination, the paper argues that Sakamoto, embodying Nietzsche’s “higher man,” created new values and embraced ideas resembling Nietzsche’s doctrine of free death to overcome chaos and create meaning through revolution

    Collective Thomson scattering diagnostic with in situ calibration system for velocity space analysis in large helical device

    0000-0002-2752-3333A collective Thomson scattering (CTS) diagnostic with a ±3 GHz band around a 77 GHz gyrotron probe beam was developed to measure the velocity distribution of bulk and fast ions in high-temperature plasmas. We propose a new in situ calibration method for a CTS diagnostic system combined with a raytracing code. The method is applied in two situations for electron cyclotron emission in plasmas and in a CTS diagnostic with a modulated probe beam. Experimental results highlight the importance of refraction correction in probe and receive beams. The CTS spectrum is measured with the in situ calibrated CTS receiver and responds to fast ions originating from a tangential neutral beam with an energy of 170 keV and from a perpendicular beam with an energy of 60 keV, both in the large helical device. From a velocity space analysis model, the results elucidate the measured anisotropic CTS spectrum caused by fast ions. The calibration methods and analyses demonstrated here are essential for CTS, millimeter-wave diagnostics, and electron cyclotron heating required under fusion reactor conditions.journal articl

    AN INFINITE PRESENTATION FOR THE MAPPING CLASS GROUP OF A NON-ORIENTABLE SURFACE WITH BOUNDARY

    No full text
    We give an infinite presentation for the mapping class group of a non-orientable surface with boundary components. The presentation is a generalization of the presentation given by the second author [16]. We also give a finite presentation for the mapping class group to obtain the infinite presentation

    Action of Alkylphosphates on the Function of the Circulatory System Part 2. Action of Alkylphosphates on the Heart of Experimental Frog

    No full text
    By studying the action of alkylposphates on the isolated frog heart (the Straub-Fuhner method) and on the frog heart in vivo (Engelmann's method), the author obtained the following results: 1. The auriculo-ventricular block occurs whan exposed to Parathion at a low concentration. 2. In the case of Parathion at a higher concentration there occurs a decrease in the amplitude of heart-beat, and further on brings about the diastolic cessation. 3. Such changes as mentioned above do not return to normal unless properly treated. 4. Atropine and interceptors of the autonomic nerves can well act antagonistically to the action of Parathion. 5. Epinephrine acts antagonistically against Parathion. 6. Acetylcholine and ergotamine act as to invigorate the action of Parathion. 7. Diazinon and Chlorthion act more or less in the same manner as Parathion

    Action of Alkylphosohates on the Function of the Circulatory System Part 1. Electrocardiographic Studies of Parathion Poisoning

    No full text
    By examining the electrocardiograms from the patients and experimental animals of Parathion poisoning, the author obtained the following results: 1. Out of six patients with acute (manifested) Parathion poisoning there one with a decrease in ST segment and with a complication of the Adams-Stokes syndrome due to the disturbances in the auriculo-ventricular conduction. 2. In the latent cases of poisoning an elevation in T-wave could be observed. 3. Of the acute cases of experimental animals with a sinus bradicardia, an elevation in T-wave, a prolongation of PQ interval and auriculo-ventricular blocking were observed. 4. In chronic cases of experimental rabbits an elevation in T-wave could be observed. 5. These pathological changes mentioned above appear to be due to the action of acetylcholine accumulated by Parathion poisoning
