Reinventing personality from a Volterra nonlinear model of motivation
Authors: Kadri Faisal
Published: June 2022

Multidimensional Laplace Transforms (MLT) is a generalisation of the Laplace transforms widely used in the analysis of linear control systems. The use of MLT allows the response of continuous nonlinear systems to be expressed as a power series of the stimulus. MLT was used in modelling animal motivation. The two distinct motivational mechanisms of priming and homeostasis are combined in a single mathematically rigorous nonlinear dynamic model. Projecting the model to simulate human motivation led to an age-dependent cybernetic personality model. The model comprises four complex dimensions, where sentences are classified to reflect states of motivation. The Age Trend Classification (ATC) is based on empirical evaluation of funniness scores over adult age: a sentence is classified according to changes in its average scores, either as falling, rising, peaking or constant. In contrast, psychometric personality models assume stable human traits; age dependence in adulthood is often considered insignificant. In this respect the age dependent artificial personality is a re-invention of and radically different from current psychological models. This paper explains the nonlinear roots of the motivation model, how the complex motivational dimensions reconcile with psychological traits and suggests a cybernetic hypothesis of human aging. Statistical analysis compares the consistency of Big Five personality with ATC funniness scores, the analysis shows that Cronbach's Alpha coefficients of raw funniness scores are higher in value than Big Five traits, and that the correlation coefficients between raw ATC funniness and Big Five scores show that nearly all ATC correlations with Extroversion and Neuroticism are closely distributed. The high consistency of ATC scores supports the reliability of funniness score data as a source of personality measures, the nearly uniform correlation with two of five personality traits suggests the reliance on such empirical measures as a criterion to select sentences with strong links to personality.
Del autor del texto al sujeto de las prácticas: pensando antropologías y literatura desde la re-existencia
Authors: Romero Flores Javier Reynaldo
Published: June 2022

Tomando en cuenta que los temas antropológicos, como fuente de información para los antropólogos, han estado contenidos en los grandes relatos históricos, los informes de viajeros y las crónicas, recogidas antes del siglo XIX y conociendo que a partir del surgimiento de la antropología, denominada “científica” se han dado un momento y unascircunstancias en las que se ha pensado que la literatura y la antropología tienen mucho en común; entonces, el ensayo pretende distinguir a la antropología de la literatura desde aquellos énfasis que las diferencian. En el primer caso por su compromiso con la labor investigativa y en el segundo por su labor creativa. Sin negar que la literatura y la antropología puedan tener ciertas conexiones y estar bastante relacionadas en algunas dimensiones, desde nuestra búsqueda de una antropología para la re-existencia, se exploran estas posibles relaciones y se muestra cómo han sido constituidasambas, la literatura y la antropología.
Construir conocimiento desde los Estudios Artísticos, algunas propuestas decoloniales
Authors: González Vélez César Augusto
Published: June 2022

Este artículo propone algunos argumentos para dar una respuesta posible a la pregunta ¿cuáles son las características del conocimiento realizable en el campo de los estudios artísticos? La argumentación se organiza en tres ejes. En primer lugar, se reflexiona en torno a la relación de los estudios artísticos con la división occidental del conocimiento en disciplinas científicas y artísticas. En un segundo momento, el artículo aborda la necesidad de pensar el conocimiento propio a los estudios artísticos en el marco de una experiencia vital y significativa, así como en conexión con la historia.Por último, se hace una relación entre el conocimiento de lo artístico y un enfoque centrado en la vida, más allá de una perspectiva estrictamente antropocéntrica.

ANALISA INRUSH CURRENT DAN TRANSIENT OVERVOLTAGE TRANSFORMATOR 292 MVA DENGAN PENGUJIAN LINE CHARGING STUDI KASUS PADA PLTGU CILEGON
Authors: Prabowo Rizky Drajat , Badaruddin Badaruddin
Published: June 2022

Kehandalan sistem dan peralatan yang memberikan supply listrik kepada konsumen menjadi fokus utama dalam upaya penyediaan energi listrik. Untuk memastikan kehandalan tersebut dilakukan serangkaian pengujian dalam sistem kelistrikan, salah satu pengujian tersebut adalah pengujian line charging. Pengujian line charging adalah kondisi dimana mesin pembangkit beroperasi isolated untuk memberikan supply ke saluran transmisi, peralatan transmisi dan ke beban, dalam situasi yang dikondisikan. Peralatan penting yang memiliki kemungkinan  failure dalam pengujian tersebut adalah transformator. Dampak operasi transformator dalam pengujian line charging adalah terjadinya inrush current dan transient overvoltage. Hal tersebut memiliki potensi mengurangi kehandalan transformator. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui nilai inrush current, transient overvoltage dan mengetahui dampaknya terhadap transformator dari data hasil simulasi pemodelan dan data aktual pengujian line charging. Berdasarkan hasil analisa yang dilakukan inrush current dan transient overvoltage terbesar diperoleh dari pemodelan dengan metode switching pada 52L dengan nilai 6.56 kA dan  307.3 kV. Nilai transient overvoltage dari hasil simulasi menunjukkan hasil 2.5 kali dari tegangan nominalnya, hal ini jika dilakukan terus menerus akan menyebabkan kegagalan operasi transformator. Metode yang paling efektif untuk menurunkan inrush current adalah metode switching pda 52G dengan sequential switch, dengan metode ini didapatkan penurunan inrush current sebesar 83.6 % dari metode 52G.

Refleksje nad modelem rozpoznawania przez sądy spraw cywilnych z zakresu prawa rolnego
Authors: Mucha Joanna
Published: June 2022

Celem rozważań – wobec braku w kodeksie postępowania cywilnego zunifikowanej regulacji poświęconej rozpoznawaniu przez sądy spraw z zakresu prawa rolnego – jest ustalenie, czy w świetle obowiązujących przepisów, a także utrwalonych poglądów doktryny istnieją przesłanki do wyodrębnienia procesowego modelu załatwiania tego rodzaju spraw. W artykule przeanalizowano dwie niewykluczające się wzajemnie opcje: dopuszczalność utworzenia postępowania odrębnego w sprawach z zakresu prawa rolnego oraz poddanie ich rozpoznawania sądownictwu wyspecjalizowanemu. W konkluzji rozważań przyjęto, że ze względu na trudność w realizacji kluczowego dla kwalifikacji spraw do postępowań odrębnych kryterium przedmiotowego, odnoszącego się do specyfiki spraw, a nie właściwości podmiotów, pierwszą koncepcję należy odrzucić. Takie rozwiązanie nie ma oparcia także w argumentach historycznych. Bardziej realne wydaje się rozwiązanie oparte na utworzeniu wyspecjalizowanych wydziałów lub składów orzekających w ramach funkcjonującej struktury sądownictwa.

Männer in der Krise
Authors: Amlinger Carolin
Published: June 2022

In contemporary German literature, diagnoses of the times can be observed that interpret social modernization processes as alienation and loss of meaning. The article examines whether the selected novels tie in with the culture-critical crisis consciousness of the turn of the century around 1900. This article develops the thesis that in Der Eisvogel by Uwe Tellkamp and Sieben Nächte by Simon Strauß, men appear as figures of crisis through which socio-pathological side effects of modern progress are articulated.
Thesen und Fragen zur Historizität und Aktualität der Ideologiekritik
Authors: Schmieder Falko
Published: June 2022

The essay ties in with current attempts at systematic reconstruction and reappropriation of the method of ideology critique. It argues that such attempts should not be satisfied with the reconstruction of an alleged core or basic essence, but should additionally address both the reasons for the historical decline of ideology critique and the new phenomena that lead to tensions with classical approaches to it.
Die sinnlichen Enden der Ideologie
Authors: Schildmann Mareike
Published: June 2022

This essay inquires into the historical background, the analytical function, and the political implications of Georg Büchner’s materialism. Büchner’s revolutionary drama Danton’s Tod (1835) is situated at an interface between the French sensualist school of the idéologues and a modern concept of ideology in Marx. In Büchner’s drama, the senso-materialist concept of idea and sensation is related to the constitution of political bodies, which reveals an intimate nexus of imagination and sensation, ideology and affect.
Lichtbilder der Ideologie: Von Marx zu Fontane
Authors: Breyer Till
Published: June 2022

The article investigates the role metaphors of optical media and projection have played within the conceptual and literary history of ideology. Starting with the figure of the camera obscura in Marx, Fontane, and other contemporaries, it is shown that the ambiguous concept of Lichtbild (slide, photography) gains significance in social thought and literature as a metaphor for false perception. Subsequently, the analysis of Theodor Fontane’s novel Effi Briest (1895) shows how optical media are turned into figures of narration that generate a critical perspective on bourgeois ideology and its affect structure.
Vorbehalt
Authors: Hohlweck Patrick
Published: June 2022

The essay draws out a conversation between Louis Althusser’s theory of ideology and his often-misunderstood notion of »symptomatic reading.« This conversation is staged by examining three pillars of Althusser’s theoretical intervention: the problem of humanism, Spinoza’s materialism of the imaginary, and Spinoza’s Biblical criticism. In doing so, the essay identifies a temporal logic of retention in the Spinozism of Althusser and the Althusser school, the productivity of which for a renewed, praxeologically informed materialist theory of reading is finally discussed.
Identification of the main causes of risks in engineering procurement construction projects
Authors: Khairullah Noor Hussein , Hilal Mustafa Abdullah , Mohammed Abbas
Published: June 2022

Many risks have adverse consequences for construction projects’ objectives such as quality, schedule, and cost. As engineering procurement construction (EPC) contracts gradually become one of the most common types used in implementing major large-scale construction projects, identifying common risk types and analyzing their root causes is important for developing measures to decrease and eliminate future risks in these types of contracts. The information about the main causes of risks was collected via well-structured questionnaires addressed to construction sector professionals and preparing lists of main potential risks in EPC/construction projects through reviewing literature studies, books, and articles related to this topic. The findings indicate that several causes of risks are more critical for the project including causes related to contract, design and execution, subcontractors, systems, and equipment. The study’s results revealed that the absence of risk management implementation in the EPC construction project is a root cause of the lack of planning and control of the project.
Cranial osteopathic techniques and electroencephalogram (EEG) alpha power: a controlled crossover trial
Authors: Cella Mattia , Acella Eric , Aquino Alessandro , Pisa Viviana
Published: June 2022

Context

Osteopathic tradition in the cranial field (OCF) stated that the primary respiratory mechanism (PRM) relies on the anatomical links between the occiput and sacrum. Few studies investigated this relationship with inconsistent results. No studies investigated the occiput–sacrum connection from a neurophysiological perspective.

Objectives

This study aims to determine whether the sacral technique (ST), compared to the compression of the fourth ventricle (CV4) technique, can affect brain alpha-band power (AABP) as an indicator of a neurophysiological connection between the occiput and sacrum.

Methods

Healthy students, 22–30 years old for men and 20–30 years old for women, were enrolled in the study and randomized into eight interventions groups. Each group received a combination of active techniques (CV4 or ST) and the corresponding sham techniques (sham compression of the fourth ventricle [sCV4] or sham sacral technique [sST] ), organized in two experimental sessions divided by a 4 h washout period. AABP was continuously recorded by electroencephalogram (EEG) of the occipital area in the first 10 min of resting state, during each intervention (active technique time) and after 10 min (post-active technique time), for a total of approximately 50 min per session. Analysis was carried out utilizing a repeated-measure ANOVA within the linear general model framework, consisting of a within-subject factor of time and a within-subject factor of treatment (CV4/ST).

Results

Forty healthy volunteers (mean age ± SD, 23.73±1.43 years; range, 21–26 years; 16 male and 24 female) were enrolled in the study and completed the study protocol. ANOVA revealed a time × treatment interaction effect statistically significant (F=791.4; p<0.001). A particularly high increase in mean AABP magnitude was recorded during the 10 min post-CV4, compared to both the CV4 and post-sCV4 application (p<0.001). During all the times analyzed for ST and sST application, no statistically significant differences were registered with respect to the resting state.

Conclusions

The ST does not produce immediate changes on occipital AABP brain activity. CV4, as previous evidence supported, generates immediate effects, suggesting that a different biological basis for OCF therapy’s connection between the head and sacrum should be explored.
Colloidal photonic crystals formation studied by real-time light diffraction
Authors: Pariente Jose Ángel , Blanco Álvaro , López Cefe
Published: June 2022

Colloidal suspensions crystallize by a natural sedimentation process under certain conditions, the initial volume fraction being one of the parameters that govern this process. Here, we have developed a simple in-situ, real-time, optical characterization technique to study silica colloidal suspensions during natural sedimentation in order to shed new light on this crystallization process. This technique monitors small variations in the wavelength of the reflectance features, allowing the analysis of the formation of the first layers of the crystal with sub-nanometer precision, and their dynamics, which is crucial to ensure a high quality in the final sample. The experimental results indicate that, in certain range of volume fraction, spontaneous crystallization of a colloidal fluid occurs at the bottom of the suspension, as a phase change, then through evaporation of the water it compacts to near close-packed and, eventually, dries. Understanding self-assembly at these scales is paramount in materials science and our results will contribute to improve and characterize the quality and crystallinity of the materials used in this process.
Unveiling atom-photon quasi-bound states in hybrid plasmonic-photonic cavity
Authors: Lu Yu-Wei , Zhou Wen-Jie , Li Yongyao , Li Runhua , Liu Jing-Feng , Wu Lin , Tan Haishu
Published: June 2022

Dissipation, often associated with plasmons, leads to decoherence and is generally considered fatal for quantum nonlinearities and entanglement. Counterintuitively, by introducing a dissipative plasmonic nanoantenna into a typical cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) system, we unveil the wide existence of the atom-photon quasi-bound state (qBS), a kind of exotic eigenstate with anomalously small decay, in the hybrid plasmonic-photonic cavity. To derive the analytical condition of atom-photon qBS, we formulate a quantized two-mode model of the local density of states by connecting the interacting uncoupled cavity modes to the macroscopic QED. With resonant plasmon-photon coupling, we showcase the single-atom qBS that improves the efficiency of single-photon generation over one order of magnitude; and the two-atom qBS that significantly enhances spontaneous entanglement generation compared with a bare photonic cavity. Notably, such single-atom and multi-atom qBS can be simultaneously accessed in realistic plasmonic-photonic cavities, providing a versatile platform for advanced quantum technologies, such as quantum light sources, quantum computation, and quantum information.
Tsunamis, Earthquakes, and Music: Archives as Guardians of Cultural Continuity in Indonesia
Authors: Kornhauser Bronia , Skinner Anthea
Published: June 2022

This paper reflects on the Music Archive of Monash University’s (MAMU) experiences working in Aceh and Lampung, Indonesia and the ways they inform our practices when closely liaising with communities at risk of disaster. To support local cultural continuity and revitalization, and especially in the wake of the 2004 tsunami and the 2018 volcanic eruption respectively, MAMU became an early proponent of making digital repositories freely available online. As technology has progressed, so too have MAMU’s efforts to engage with and support the cultural preservation of its collections’ source communities. One of the archive’s latest projects includes the creation of detailed 3D scans of historical musical instruments in the collection, potentially enabling instrument makers to discover previously lost construction techniques. This paper will explore some of the many ways that archives such as MAMU can be used to support cultural continuity in areas experiencing trauma and upheaval.
Complicating an early state: a social network analysis of agents in Wari art (c.AD 700–850)
Authors: Gibbon Elizabeth , Knobloch Patricia , Jennings Justin
Published: June 2022

Processual models of the early state envisioned hierarchical societies with stable social and political structures. More recent research, however, has questioned this vision. Here, the authors explore Middle Horizon (AD 700–1000) Wari state iconography to provide an example of early state social and political organisation from the Central Andes. Social network analysis (SNA) of human figures (‘agents’) depicted in Wari art identifies links between individual agents, as visualised on objects and between the objects’ findspots. The results suggest that the Wari state was more heterarchical than previously imagined. Similar applications of SNA could be used to explore the iconographic evidence of other early, pre-literate states around the world.

Published: June 2022

The aim of this study was to evaluate the paternal programming of sex-dependent alterations in fetoplacental growth and placental lipid metabolism regulated by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) target genes in F1 diabetic males born from F0 pregestational diabetic rats. F1 control and diabetic male rats were mated with control female rats. On day 21 of gestation, F2 male and female fetoplacental growth, placental lipid levels, and protein and mRNA levels of genes involved in lipid metabolism and transport were evaluated. Fetal but not placental weight was increased in the diabetic group. Triglyceride, cholesterol and free fatty acid levels were increased in placentas of male fetuses from the diabetic group. The mRNA levels of Pparα and Pparγ coactivator 1α (Pgc-1α) were increased only in placentas of male fetuses from the diabetic group. Protein levels of PPARα and PGC-1α were decreased only in placentas of male fetuses from the diabetic group. No differences were found in Pparγ mRNA and protein levels in placentas from the diabetic group. The mRNA levels of genes involved in lipid synthesis showed no differences between groups, whereas the mRNA levels of genes involved in lipid oxidation and transport were increased only in placentas of male fetuses from the diabetic group. In conclusion, paternal diabetes programs fetal overgrowth and sex-dependent effects on the regulation of lipid metabolism in the placenta, where only placentas of male fetuses show an increase in lipid accumulation and mRNA expression of enzymes involved in lipid oxidation and transport pathways.
Individual Crisis: the Dynamics of the Basic Experiences
Authors: Zahrai Larysa
Published: June 2022

The article deals with the problem of finding common mechanisms of coping with an individual crisis, the mechanism that would be independent of individual characteristics. Basic beliefs, which usually serve as motives of human behavior and determine our attitude to various spheres of reality, are often considered to be the most stable formations of consciousness; they form a part of the worldview of the individual and make a significant in overcoming individual crisis. The purpose of this article is to employ theoretical analysis in order to reveal of the role of basic beliefs in the process of experiencing an individual crisis, to determine the semantic specificity of attitudes in the integrative or disintegrative vector of the crisis situation.

An individual crisis is defined both as a state of the person experiencing it and what determines their behavior; it is also understood as an expression of deep personal senses, which are manifested at different levels of the psyche: the unconscious, conscious and super-conscious. Experiencing a crisis is understood as a form of human activity aimed at overcoming a critical situation and finding a positive vector while reaching a new level of personality development. Experiencing of mental disintegration / integration occurs on emotional, cognitive and behavioral levels. The article points out that experiencing an individual crisis at the cognitive level causes changes on the beliefs level, which are cognitive structures and schemes that in their turn structure experiences and determine human behavior. The article also relies on the content analysis to outline integrative and disintegrative beliefs. The content of beliefs determines both disintegrative and integrative vectors of personality development during the crisis; it also reflects the system of how the individual sees the world, other people and himself. The actualization of the feeling of trust put in the world, in other people, in oneself, together with optimism and sense of self-worth are the most stable, basic characteristics of personal beliefs, seen as a resource while overcoming the crisis.

The results of theoretical analysis help to identify the following basic beliefs: optimism, trust in the world, in other people, confidence, faith in justice, self-esteem, and they determine the integrative vector of personality development as well as the way out of personal crisis while performing an adaptive function.
Denotate of the Scientific and Psychological Term "Game"
Authors: Moskalets Victor
Published: June 2022

The essential psychological properties of any activity lie in its motivation in particular in those purposes that lead the subject to it as a means of achieving them. Various positively colored emotional experiences awaken in the subject in the process of playing (games), such as the joy of excitement, elation, and so on create a basis of its motivation. Acquisition and use of material goods and / or social benefits have never been the motives of a game as such; it does not belong to the future or the past, but only to the present moment - to its own course here and now. However, such a motivational basis is inherent not only to a game, but also to some other activities. The so-called game tools, used by other activities, are clearly divided into two types: 1) educational and developmental (training, business, role, etc.); 2) psychotherapeutic. The subject seeking to use these tools effectively should be dominated by motivation matching their purpose. Thus, the former "belong to the future" in the sense that their basis is purpose, not some game result, but developmental, correctional and therapeutic result etc.; and the latter belong to the past, as they are to help their participants to get rid of the past pathologies effects. Therefore, according to the criterion of motivation, these "game" tools are not actually games.  Differntia specific of playing/game is the creation of purely imaginary playing situations. It is this property that is the predicate-discursive basis of the term "game" denotation. The rest of its meanings are connotations and other similarities and associations, in particular superficial ones that create definitive relativism in the semantic field of playing/game theory. Among the necessary conditions and essential components of games/fictional playing situations, "fakes", pretense, etc., there are rules that ensure the functioning of a game; deviations and rule-breaking spoil and devalue the game.  The subject accepts the restrictions on his freedom by the rules of the game willingly and follows them gladly, because restrictions of the game are conditions created to achieve "courage", and the subject tests their mental and physical abilities (intelligence, agility) etc. and proves them to themselves and others. This means that in the process of the game the vital forces, energies, resources of the subject "play", and they are the source of admiration, comfort, and pride, especially if the game impresses important to them individuals and groups of people with skills, beauty, and delight. Thus, the game (playing) is the creation of purely imaginary playing situations with mandatory rules of conduct, where players can test and demonstrate their mental and / or physical abilities, inclinations, strengths, and which provides enthusiasm, inspiration, strength, joy, pleasure, etc. (it allow to " play " their vital forces), and therefore participants willingly play those games that bring them such experiences.
Ukrainian Literary Naturalism in the Ideological and Aesthetic Reception of Lesia Ukrainka
Authors: Golod Roman
Published: June 2022

The article deals with the study of the problem of Lesia Ukrainka's reception of the literary phenomenon of naturalism and the philosophy of positivism as its ideological basis. It also studies the way the poetess evaluated and looked at the achievements of European and Ukrainian writers representing this literary movement in the context of world and Ukrainian literary and cultural processes. The research also singles out the significance, national and individual-author features of the naturalism professed by I. Franko, A. Krymsky, E. Zola, Goncourt brothers, and F.Norris. The article focuses on the ideological and aesthetic importance of the postulates of naturalistic art for the development of the Ukrainian literary process. It also analyses different stages of the ideological and aesthetic reception of the naturalism doctrine in the perception of different generations of Ukrainian literary critics; it deals with Lesya Ukrainka's attitude to the naturalistic concept of a man and her reasoning about the compatibility of naturalism with certain genres and movements of literature. The article drives to the conclusion that Lesia Ukrainka recognizes the very fact of the existence of Ukrainian naturalism. It provides Lesia's vision on the usage of naturalistic elements in generally unnaturalist works and their combination with other elememts, sometimes representative of opposite to naturalism in their ideological and aesthetic postulates, such as romanticism, decadence, neo-romanticism, realism, etc. The article also provides an insight of Lesia Ukrainka's attitude to the problems of zoomorphic imagery, social involvement, physiological scientism in the literature of naturalism. It draws attention to the problem of the evolution of aesthetic consciousness of E. Zola, I. Franko, A. Krymsky, and Lesia Ukrainka herself. There is also place for the comparative analysis of the perception of naturalism in the literary-critical reception of different generations of Ukrainian and foreign writers.
Simulation of Gnosis: Which Doors Do "Keys of Mary" Open (On the Basis On the Novel "Keys of Mary" by A. Kurkov, Yu. Vynnychuk)
Authors: Maftyn Nataliia
Published: June 2022

Given article is the first study of the artistic features of the novel "Keys of Mary" since its publication. The article clarifies the difference between literary texts that attempt to provide answers to the philosophy of gnosis questions and those postmodern literature texts the authors of which use gnostic ideas to create the artistic world of the work while largely formalizing them. We consider it relevant to apply the concept of "gnosis simulation" for this group of works. The author argues that it was exactly the use of ideas and signs of this philosophical direction that made the basis for the plot and composition of "The Keys of Mary". "Simulation of gnosis" emphasizes the genre peculiarity of the novel defining it as a detective-adventure; it stimulates the reader's interest, because it serves as an intriguing factor. The work is modeled on the "cosmogony structure" principle: its bipolarity is manifested both in the division of characters and in the way the main conflict is resolved. Elements of gnosis, replicated at the subculture level,   are successfully used to combine three storylines, three spatiotemporal dimensions. The focus point of the work is the image of the Maiden in her three novel incarnations (Maria, Aretha, Rina) – she is an eternally young savior of the mankind, whom the forces of evil hunt in all three of the "worlds". An interesting artistic discovery in the novel that draws reader attention is the plot of a lost historical chronicle about the knight Olgerd: in the narrative space of the work, it is perceived as a "supernova" that attracts the worlds of two time- distant plot orbits and creates a kind of insight on the last pages. Primarily, the authors of “The Keys of Mary” used the simulation of gnosis to model the plot, chronotope, and intrigue; but the values,​​ deeply reflected in the legends and artifacts associated with the life of the Virgin Mary, prompt readers' need for self-determination.
Determination of the nuclear radius parameter using the γ-ray spectrometer

The nuclear radius parameter of carbon, aluminium, iron, copper, and zinc nuclei has been determined by using (n,γ)-reaction. The neutrons from the americium-beryllium source are made to interact with the water moderator to produce the γ-rays of 2.2 MeV through (n,γ)-reaction. The γ-radiation emitted from the water medium is measured with a scintillation detector coupled to 8k multi-channel analyzer. The neutrons from the americium-beryllium source are allowed to transmit through carbon, aluminium, iron, copper, and zinc elemental targets of various thicknesses, and transmitted neutrons are again allowed to interact with water moderators to produce 2.2 MeV γ-radiation. By measuring the yield of γ-radiation produced in water moderators by neutrons transmitted through elemental targets of different mass number values, the total neutron interaction cross-sections are determined. By knowing the total neutron interaction cross-sections and mass number of the target nuclei, the radius parameter has been determined.

Published: June 2022

The results of experimental determination of the forms of uranium and radionuclides 90Sr, 137Cs, 154Eu, 238Pu, 239+240Pu, 241Am, and 244Cm in the bottom sediments of the premises 001/3 of the "Shelter" object are presented. By the sequential extraction procedure, the following amounts are determined: water-soluble, exchange, carbonate, and acid-soluble forms of uranium, fission products (90Sr, 137Cs, 154Eu), and transuranium elements (238Pu, 239+240Pu, 241Am, 244Cm) in the bottom sediments in the premises 001/3 on a mark of -2.60 m of auxiliary systems of the reactor compartment of the "Shelter" object. The concentration of uranium in the bottom sediments of room 001/3 is 3.1 ± 0.5 g/kg. Specific activity of 90Sr, 137Cs in the bottom sediments is within the range of 6·108 - 1·109 Bq/kg, and 239+240Pu and 241Am within the range of 6·105 - 8·106 Bq/kg. Radionuclides 90Sr, 137Cs, 154Eu, 238Pu, 239+240Pu, 241Am, 244Сm in the bottom sediments are in different chemical forms that will define their different potential mobility. Uranium and 137Cs in the bottom sediments of premises 001/3 mainly are in exchange forms. The amount of water-soluble forms of uranium and cesium is 1.5 - 3 %. The basic amount of 90Sr, more than 60 %, is carbonate soluble in a weak acid at рН 4.8. More than 65 % of 238Pu and 239+240Pu in the bottom sediments are in acid-soluble forms. The mobility of 154Eu, 241Am and 244Cm in the bottom sediments is much higher than that of plutonium; at pH 4.8 more than 40 % of 241Am go to soluble state. The ratio between the activities of 137Cs/90Sr, 90Sr/239+240Pu, 241Am/239+240Pu, and 244Cm/239+240Pu in the bottom sediments considerably differ from the analogical relations of radionuclides in a fuel containing materials of the "Shelter" object.

Based on multiyear monitoring observations, dynamics of 137Сs intake into the main tissues and organs of aboveground phytomass of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) during 30 years from the Chornobyl accident was determined as well peculiarities of their radioactive contamination. Empirical (observations), radioecological and statistical methods were used. It was found that for the wood increase of values of transfer factor was observed between 1991 and 2002 yrs with the further monotonous decrease of this value up to 2020; in internal bark, 1-year shoots, 2-year shoots, 1-year needles, 2-year needles, twigs thick and twigs thin multiyear dynamics was similar – an increase of values of transfer factor in the period of 1991 - 2002 yrs with further decrease of it up to 2020. At external bark, monotonous decrease of values of transfer factor was found during the whole observation period 1991 - 2020.

Double layer beam shaping assembly (DLBSA) is a system that moderates fast neutrons into epithermal neutrons. The epithermal neutrons that leave the aperture in the DLBSA system are broadened in the space, thereby reducing the intensity and homogeneity of the epithermal neutron beams. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the design. The development of the DLBSA design was carried out using an extension nozzle. The nozzles are designed using materials made in three configurations, namely Ni+LiF load polyethylene, Pb+LiF load polyethylene, and Bi+LiF load polyethylene. The simulation results show that the addition of a nozzle at the tip of the DLBSA can channel the beam more directionally with high intensity. The addition of nozzles with Ni+LiF load PE material produces an epithermal neutron beam that meets the IAEA standards.

Published: June 2022

Women continue to be underrepresented in medicine, especially in senior leadership positions, and they experience challenges related to gender bias and sexual harassment. Women who are members of multiple groups that experience marginalization, including, for example, women who are American Indian, Alaskan native, indigenous, Black, or Hispanic, face a compounded challenge. In this article, we explore how institutions and professional organizations in medicine can use metrics to better understand the structural disparities that create and promote gender inequity in the work environment and how to employ these metrics to track progress in narrowing these gaps. Examples in health care (clinical medicine, scientific organizations, scientific publishing), business, and law are used to illustrate how impactful metrics can promote accountability when coupled with transparent reporting.

Rediscovery of the extremely rare running crab spider Philodromus (Artanes) poecilus (Thorell, 1872) in Bavaria, Germany, after 141 years (Araneae, Philodromidae)
Authors: Bauer Tobias , Thorns Hans-Jürgen , Guttenberger Jürgen
Published: June 2022

Philodromus poecilus (Thorell, 1872) is a Transeurasian species reported from most parts of Europe except the British Isles and the Iberian Peninsula. Although widely distributed, this species is extremely rarely recorded in Germany and neighbouring countries. In Bavaria, it has not been found since the time of Ludwig Koch (1825–1908). Recently, sev-eral specimens were collected from urban plane trees in Deggendorf (Lower Bavaria), proving that the species is still present in Bavaria. Additionally, images of the copulatory organs and of living and preserved specimens are presented, as is a compilation of records in Germany and neighbouring countries.
The socialisation of print culture. Frontier ways of reading that promoted «El Tío Clarín» (Seville, 1864-1867) and «La Campana» (Seville, 1867-1868)
Authors: Gutiérrez-Jiménez María-Eugenia
Published: June 2022

This paper addresses circumstantially the different ways in which the Seville satirical weeklies El Tío Clarín (1864-1867) and La Campana (1867-1868) –the latter replacing the former after its suspension– might have been read. By studying their editorial strategies on the basis of the footprints left by their editors, it is possible to determine how satirical journalism participated in the socialisation of print culture, which developed into informational graphics, despite the paradoxical confluence of three factors: the political instability in the final years of the reign of Isabella II, the tight censorship to which the press was subjected in 1867 and the slow but continuous progress in modernising the publishing market. Based on the combination of satirical cartoons, humour and popular genres, both weeklies made current affairs more accessible through critical reasoning and by appealing to the senses, with revealing indications of the simultaneous ways of addressing such a subject. Textual reading gave way to the graphic kind, reading aloud to doing so in silence, while the spaces in which this occurred, between the public (the street) and the private sphere (the parlour at home), and the collectives involved, namely, women and children, were determined. It was these ways of relating to the two weeklies, established by their readerships, that were behind the popularity of the satirical press before the Glorious Revolution of 1868 and the transition to publication capitalism.
Theorizing platformization from the perspective of the connection between mobile journalism and political participation
Authors: Zhang Wei , Pérez-Tornero José-Manuel
Published: June 2022

Digital media platforms are used to make social contacts, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Journalism also adopts mobile and social platforms into news production and distribution. The usage of digital media platforms in journalistic practices has shown some interlinkage with political participation. Against these backdrops, there is a need for a theoretical framework to analyze the interlinkage and the relevant influence on social activities. This article uses a conceptual approach and theorizes platformization to explicate the rationale behind the interaction between digital platforms, mobile journalism, and political participation. Platformization in this study inspects media as mediated and dynamic platform that values interactivity and data. We also argue that the thesis of platformization derives from mediatization theory, and consists of platform logic and platform architecture. Platform logic is represented by platform functionality, platform automation, mobile mediality, and platform-based sociality. Platformization is structured by the platform architecture in the communication activities. Platform architecture has two senses. Firstly, it has the sense of internal structure, i.e., the engineering structure of software and hardware. Secondly, it contains the sense of external structure, i.e., the platform’s structural position in the platform ecosystem.
Fact-checkers on social networks: analysis of their presence and content distribution channels

Published: June 2022

Fact-checking is a thriving journalistic discipline that, in recent years, has gained great prominence as a tool in combating disinformation. The effectiveness of the work carried out by these journalistic initiatives depends not only on the quality of their content, but also on their ability to reach large audiences through the same channels by which disinformation spreads. In this context, we consider it important to know to what extent fact-checkers use social networks and other types of digital channels in order to deliver their fact-checks to a wide audience, whether there are differences between the practices developed by these actors according to the type of organisation to which they belong and whether there is a distinguishing element in this regard for Ibero-American fact-checkers. This article focuses on analysing the presence on social networks and the use of content distribution tools by 104 fact-checkers from all over the world pertaining to the International Fact-Checking Network in 2020. The results show significant differences in terms of network presence based on the type of entity to which fact-checkers belong, the independent fact-checkers being the ones using a wider variety of distribution channels. It has also been confirmed that Ibero-American fact-checkers have a greater presence on social networks, use more digital tools and provide more channels to share their content than the rest of the international sample.
