Formação, pesquisa e práticas no contexto da educação escolar indígena: as ações do Pibid Diversidade no povo Xukuru do Ororubá
Authors: Silva Jaqueline Barbosa da
Published: April 2018

O desencadeamento do Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Iniciação à Docência para a Diversidade (Pibid Diversidade), no contexto da educação escolar indígena, anuncia estratégias de trabalho que contribui com a autonomia coletiva, o processo de construção do conhecimento e o fortalecimento da identidade étnica. Assim, o presente artigo apresenta os resultados da pesquisa Professores Indígenas de Pernambuco: formação, pesquisa e prática pedagógica (2011-2013), realizada na 1ª edição do Pibid Diversidade, contextualizando a trajetória histórica do povo Xukuru e as práticas desencadeadas no âmbito da educação escolar deste grupo étnico. Logo, servimo-nos das lentes teóricas de Almeida (2017), Grosfoguel (2007) e Mignolo (2007) para explicitar o caráter epistemológico da prática pedagógica na educação escolar indígena. Essa compreensão solicitou uma metodologia filiada às perspectivas do movimento recursivo, rompendo com a linearidade colonialista das ações societárias e governamentais. A desnaturalização dos olhares viciados pela modernidade, pela colonialidade e pelo capitalismo anunciou que, as ações intervencionistas em desenvolvimento pelo público do Pibid Diversidade, no povo Xukuru do Ororubá, os processos aprendentes, formativos e paritários interrelacionam a vida das comunidades indígenas com a construção do conhecimento, reunindo escola e comunidade de modo singular e diferenciado.

Published: April 2018

Este trabalho tem como objetivo apresentar os resultados de uma pesquisa que teve como finalidade diagnosticar, compreender e refletir sobre o ensino de língua portuguesa no contexto bilíngue de uma escola indígena de uma reserva indígena da região de Dourados/MS. Sabe-se que o Referencial Curricular Nacional para as Escolas Indígenas/RCNEI, bem como outros documentos oficiais sobre educação intercultural indígena apontam para a garantia de educação intercultural, bilíngue e diferenciada para a população indígena. A língua caracteriza-se como objeto de poder e identidade de um povo, entretanto, no contexto indígena, a imposição do português como língua única está muito presente. Neste trabalho pretende-se apresentar as reflexões sobre as práticas de ensino e concepções de ensino e aprendizagem de língua portuguesa presentes na comunidade analisada. Assim, pretende-se colocar em evidência quais os conceitos de ensino de língua subjacentes nas escolhas e práticas docentes no contexto intercultural indígena da região. Nossa perspectiva teórica terá como norte as reflexões da Linguística Aplicada e as pesquisas em educação escolar indígena e ensino de língua portuguesa como segunda língua.

Acute liver failure
Authors: Bunchorntavakul Chalermrat
Published: April 2018

Acute liver failure (ALF) is a life threatening condition defined by the evidence of hepatic injury, jaundice, coagulopathy, and encephalopathy in a patient without preexisting cirrhosis and with an illness duration of <26 weeks. The etiologies of ALF are heterogeneous: viral hepatitis being the most common in the East, whereas drug-induced, particularly acetaminophen, being the most common in the West. Over the past decades, the outcomes of ALF have been improving with early recognition and prompt initiation of etiology-specific therapy (especially N-acetylcysteine), complex intensive care protocols and urgent liver transplantation (LT). The most commonly used prognostic scoring systems include King’s College Criteria (more specific) and MELD (more sensitive). Cerebral edema and intracranial hypertension are reasons for high morbidity and mortality in the early phase; hypertonic saline is suggested for patients with high-risk for developing intracranial hypertension (ICH) and when ICH develops, mannitol is recommended as first-line therapy. Bacterial and fungal infections are very common necessitating strict preventive measures, careful surveillance and prompt aggressive antimicrobial therapy. Acute kidney injury develops in 50-70% of patients; mostly reversible in survivors and temporary dialysis is required in about 30% of cases. Overall 1-year survival after LT has been reported to be lower in patients with ALF as compared to those with cirrhosis; however following the first year this trend has been to be reversed and ALF patients have a better long-term survival. Extracorporeal liver support system, such as albumin dialysis and plasmapheresis, may serve as a bridge to LT and may increase LT-free survival in select cases.

Published: April 2018

XIII.
yüzyılda Ahi Evran tarafından kurulmuş olan Ahilik Teşkilatı bilim, sanat ve
ahlakın ışığında ekonomik, sosyal ve kültürel faaliyetlerde bulunmuştur.
Anadolu Selçuklu ve Osmanlı dönemlerinde yaptıkları faaliyetlerde insanı
öncelemişler ve günümüze kadar ulaşan kültürel ve ahlaki miraslar
bırakmışlardır.

Ahilik
teşkilatının yanı sıra neredeyse aynısı gibi faaliyet gösteren bir de kadın
kolu vardır. Ahi Evran’ın karısı Fatma Bacı tarafından kurulan Bacıyan-ı Rûm (
Anadolu Bacıları Teşkilatı) kadınların ekonomik, sosyal ve kültürel anlamda
gelişmesine katkı sunmuştur. Bilim, sanat ve ahlak temelinde faaliyetlerini
sürdüren Ahilik Teşkilatı ve Bacıyan-ı Rûm cinsiyetçi tutum ve yaklaşımlardan
uzak durarak her bir ferdin katkılarıyla toplumsal kalkınma için çalışmalarını
sürdürmüşlerdir.

Literatürde,  Ahi Evran’ın hekim olduğu ve tıp ile ilgili
de bilimsel eserler vermiş olduğu belirtilmektedir. Ahilik teşkilatının mesleki
eğitim ve ahlaki değerleri hekimlik ile çok benzerlik göstermektedir. Fatma
Bacı’nın kurduğu, Ahilik teşkilatının kadın kolu olan Bacıyân-ı Rûm örgütünün
de kadın sanatkârlar yetiştirmesi açısından incelenmeye değer olduğunu
düşünmekteyiz. Bu çalışmada, temeli yaklaşık 700 yıl öncesine kadar uzanan bir
teşkilatın kadına değer verme motivasyonlarını yeniden ortaya çıkarmak
amaçlanmaktadır. Bunun neticesinde ise günümüzde çözümü çok güç bir hal almış
olan kadına yönelik olumsuz tutum ve davranışların çözümüne katkı sunacak

Aborto, derecho e ideología
Authors: Escobar García Claudia
Published: April 2018

Este trabajo intenta demostrar que los discursos, que se oponen a la penalización del aborto y rechazan las normas constitucionales que protejen la vida, son una construcción ideológica artificialmente elaborada para justificar el aborto, y ocultar las relaciones asimétricas del poder entre la mujer y el no nacido. Para tal efecto, dichos argumentos son identificados y sometidos a un análisis crítico, que demuestra su caracter puramente emotivo y falto de fundamentos.

Published: April 2018

La inexistencia y la nulidad son instituciones fundamentales para el derecho privado ecuatoriano. Se trata de dos categorías distintas que tienen en común perseguir la ineficacia de los actos que no se formaron de acuerdo a los parámetros jurídicos. Tratándose de actos inexistentes, la ley los priva de toda consecuencia jurídica. Tratándose de actos nulos, la ley permite que un juez declare su invalidez y desconozca sus efectos. Este artículo revisa la regulación legal de la inexistencia y la nulidad en el derecho ecuatoriano, así como los pronunciamientos al respecto de la Corte Nacional de Justicia.
Sembrar Derechos. Reconfiguración del trabajador rural como sujeto de derecho, en los procesos de integración regional y universal
Authors: Sánchez Enrique Daniela Verónica
Published: April 2018

Este artículo analiza la reforma del régimen de trabajo rural en Argentina, desde el debate teórico sobre la reconfiguración del trabajador, como sujeto de derecho universal, y la transformación del demos, frente a la normativa supraestatal generada por los procesos de integración regional y de globalización. El objetivo de este trabajo consiste en indagar sobre la incidencia de este proceso en el grado de incorporación de estándares internacionales de derechos humanos, en la normativa que regula el trabajo agrícola argentino. En el primer apartado se desarrolla el debate sobre las variaciones en el concepto de ciudadanía, a fin de repensar en qué medida incide en la reconfiguración jurídica del trabajador, de ciudadano nacional a sujeto de derecho regional y universal. En el segundo, se realiza un breve análisis de cierta normativa supranacional que manifiesta la internacionalización de los derechos de los trabajadores. Finalmente, se comentan los puntos estratégicos de la última reforma del régimen de trabajo rural argentino, procurando destacar los principales cambios producidos por esta legislación en materia de incorporación de Derechos Económicos, Sociales y Culturales. La metodología seleccionada para el desarrollo de esta propuesta consiste en el análisis teórico y normativo, sobre la transformación del demos y de las normas referidas al nuevo régimen de trabajo agrario argentino (Ley Nacional 26.727), a los derechos humanos de los trabajadores en MERCOSUR, como organismo de integración regional, y del PIDESC.
El garantismo y el punitivismo en el Código Orgánico Integral Penal
Authors: Cornejo Aguiar Sebastián
Published: April 2018

El objetivo del presente artículo es determinar la necesidad de la existencia de una parte punitivista y una garantista dentro del Código Orgánico Integral Penal, partiendo del estudio de la actualización doctrinaria en materia penal dentro del ordenamiento jurídico ecuatoriano, considerando que al ser el Ecuador un Estado constitucional de derechos y justicia, nos inspira a la construcción de mecanismos que tengan como fundamento y fin la tutela de las libertades del individuo, frente a las variadas formas del ejercicio arbitrario del poder punitivo del Estado, en donde las garantías y principios establecidos en el Código Orgánico Integral Penal, deben ser considerados como filtros de contención del poder punitivo que impiden que dicho poder se desborde y destruya todo a su paso. Seguidamente se analiza el significado del garantismo y punitivismo. Por último, se toca la relación existente entre garantismo y punitivismo, concluyendo que el garantismo es una corriente que proporciona ideas sustanciales para transformar el procedimiento judicial impidiendo así la arbitrariedad del poder punitivo.
Ineficacia de la acción de repetición
Authors: Enríquez Burbano Guillermo
Published: April 2018

La presente investigación abarca el estudio de la acción de repetición, comprendida en el art. 11.9 de la Constitución de la República, cabe destacar que la norma suprema plasma el principio o derecho del Estado a la indemnización por daños provocados por servidores públicos cuyo accionar marcado por la intencionalidad o dolo hayan provocado el mismo. Se verifica la inexistencia de un procedimiento específico y efectivo a través del cual se demande la acción de repetición, lográndose por consecuencia la correspondiente sentencia ejecutable, situación que avoca al planteamiento de nuevos elementos al procedimiento presente. La actual regulación de la acción de repetición garantiza que los jueces que conocen las causas no puedan emitir un pronunciamiento sobre dolo o culpa grave de los funcionarios o servidores públicos, o determinar el grado de responsabilidad de los mismos, de ahí que sea preciso lograr una determinación efectiva del responsable para que pueda responder por los montos indemnizatorios que se derivan de las sentencias internas e internacionales cuando el Ecuador debe asumirlos, tal situación se traduce en una pérdida económica para el erario público y una perpetuación de la impunidad para las acciones desarrolladas de forma irresponsable por parte de funcionarios o servidores públicos que puedan afectar a tercero. Se destaca que el Estado posee pleno derecho a repetir contra los funcionarios cuyas acciones dolosas o culposas sean demostradas legalmente, garantizándose de esta forma que los responsables asuman la cancelación de la indemnización o reparación económica.
A comparative study of separability of arbitration clause under main contract of LIca and the UNCITRAL model law
Authors: Darami Zadeh Atefeh , Farhangpur Shapur
Published: April 2018

The aim of the paper was to investigate the independence of the arbitration clause from the main contract in the International Commercial Arbitration Law of Iran with a comparative study in the UNCITRAL model law. The effectiveness of this type of procedure, its coordination with the specific objectives and the special status of international traders has led to their increasing willingness to use this legal solution. We use a comparative method, quasi-experimental, to describe similarities and differences in variables in two or more existing groups in a natural setting; it resembles an experiment as it uses manipulation but lacks random assignment of individual subjects.  This study begins analyzing international arbitration and the UNCITRAL model rules (Chapters I to VI), then reviewing the national arbitration (Chapter V); thus, the effects of the principle of independence of the arbitration clause can be seen (Chapter VII) and, later, the problems that arise (Chapters VIII to X). Even so, the main conclusion is that the parties usually agree to resolve their international disputes through arbitration, which is judged privately and universally accepted.
Sweet Sixteen Goes to War: Hollywood, The Naaf and 16MM Film Exhibition in Canada During WWII
Authors: Lester Peter
Published: April 2018

Cet article s’intéresse au visage changeant de l’industrie cinématographique canadienne et à la relation fragile que cette industrie entretenait avec le format 16 mm tout au long des années de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. L’usage grandissant du format 16 mm comme technologie d’exploitation par l’industrie cinématographique canadienne lors de la guerre fut directement relié au rôle crucial que le format jouait comme outil d’apprentissage et de divertissement dans les camps de l’armée canadienne. Le comité des films de la marine, de l’infanterie et de l’armée de l’air, dirigé par N.L. Nathanson et le colonel J.A. Cooper, établit des ententes sans précédent avec les principaux studios américains pour obtenir la présentation de leurs films dans les camps canadiens. Même si cela n’a jamais été prévu comme tel, ces activités ont effectivement servi à saper les conceptions reçues sur la façon avec laquelle, et le contexte dans lequel, les films de format 16 mm devaient être correctement exploités.
Multi-Media Stardom, Performance and Theme Songs in Hong Kong Cinema
Authors: Wing-Fai Leung
Published: April 2018

Cet article examine le phénomène du vedettariat multi-médiatique à Hong-Kong. Ce phénomène repose sur le passage fluide, d’une pratique médiatique à une autre, des « stars » mais est aussi associée à l’histoire, unique, d’une performance. Historiquement, la musique a jouée un rôle important dans le cinéma d’Hong Kong. L’héritage de l’Opéra Chinois a suscité le développement de talents à plusieurs facettes, ce qui est rendu manifeste par les performances, dans plusieurs médias différents, des chanteurs. Le développement de talents multiples a poursuivi son influence dans le discours sur la performance à Hong Kong, maintenu par les médias Cantonnais dans les années 1970 et 1980. Les vedettes de la télévision se sont déplacées dans d’autres médias et on attendait d’eux qu’ils soient des artistes multi talentueux. En explorant les thèmes de chansons des années 1970 jusqu’au milieu des années 1990, en se concentrant particulièrement sur leur capacité à transcender les médias, sur les récits qu’ils contiennent et sur leur portée symbolique, cet article montre comment la performance occupe un rôle important dans l’univers singulier du vedettariat multi-médiatique à Hong-Kong.
Nostalgia for the Liberal Hour: Talkin’ ‘Bout the Horizons of Norman Jewison’s Generation
Authors: McNeil Daniel
Published: April 2018

Tout au long de sa carrière de cinéaste, Norman Jewison a combattu des stéréotypes qui dépeignent les libéraux de race blanche comme des bien pensants hypo crites et de mauvaise foi. Il s'est également approprié—tout en la contestant—la figure de la victimisation face à des capitalistes révolutionnaires et des antiracistes radicaux. Cet article attire l’attention sur les lieux communs qui existent entre la pensée du cinéaste canadien et celles de Robin Winks et Michael Banton, deux universitaires reconnus aux États-Unis et en Grande Bretagne qui se sont aussi opposés aux pratiques néolibérales qui semblent faire une trop grande distinction entre l’éthique et la politique tout comme les études politiques provenant des intellectuels radicaux. L’article conclut en contrepoint de l’humanisme libéral de Jewison, Winks et Banton en se tournant vers le nouvel humanisme de Paul Gilroy et de George Elliott Clarke, deux intellectuels post-coloniaux qui se sont opposés à l’étroitesse disciplinaire et aux études nationales trop insulaires. Je défends l’idée que le travail explorateur, provocateur et évocateur de Gilroy et Clarke peut aider aux études canadiennes, dans leur tentative de s’arrimer aux débats qui ont cours aux États-Unis et en Grande Bretagne et aussi aux travaux transatlantiques qui se prétendent trop souvent globaux.
Nostalgia for the Masculine: Onward to the Past in the Sports Films of the Eighties
Authors: Kibby Marjorie D.
Published: April 2018

Le sport est souvent au cœur des films narratifs hollywoodiens des années quatre-vingts. Les films de sport de l’époque suivent deux récits dominants: la re-création de la petite ville américaine typique, et la ré-écriture d’histoires personnelles et sociales. La théorie post-moderne propose que l’échec du present et redressé par une représentation romantique et nostalgique du passé. Cett notion se retrouve dans ces films. A une époque ou il est de plus en plus difficile de tenir des rôles masculins traditionnels, les films de sport trahissent une certaine nostalgie pour le passé héroique, pour la stabilité des identités sexuelles et pour l’hégémonie masculine de la société patriarcale.
Structure and mechanical properties of ADC 12 Al foam–polymer interpenetrating phase composites with epoxy resin or silicone
Authors: Angamnuaysiri Kunmutta , Asavavisithchai Seksak
Published: April 2018

Metal foam is a high-porosity engineering material which has many outstanding properties such as lightness, high specific strength and stiffness, large energy absorption during impact and good thermal transportation. Impregnation of metal foams with polymers produces new types of composites such as interpenetrating phase composites (IPCs) and co-continuous composites, due to an interconnection on the macroscopic level of individual phases as a co-continuous 3-D network. The coexistence of the metal and polymer phases allows each to contribute its prominent properties to the composite. This novel composite material is a potential candidate for applications in the automotive and aerospace industries. The present study aims to develop two IPCs from open-cell Al foams of 20 ppi impregnated with silicone or epoxy resin. The compressive behavior and energy absorption characteristics of IPCs are also examined and compared. The results showed that although both IPCs have a similar foam structure with similar density, the disparities in the properties of impregnated polymers lead to distinct mechanical properties. The combination of the Al foam and polymers, both silicone and epoxy resin, yield stiffer IPCs than either of the two individual materials alone. Higher stiffness was found in IPCs with epoxy resin, owing to the brittle nature of the resin. Energy absorption capacity was also increased when compared with the original Al foam.
Influence of strength and cold forming on liquid metal embrittlement due to hot-dipping of high strength structural steels
Authors: Luithle Alexander
Published: April 2018

Two structural steels were cold deformed and tested via tensile tests to investigate the dependence of cold deformation on liquid metal embrittlement during hot-dipping. It was found that the reduction in area of tensile specimens with a low degree of deformation showed, when tested in liquid zinc, the highest degradation compared with a tensile test in air that had been heated to 450 °C. An increasing degree of deformation leads to a decreasing tendency to form brittle cracks. The material conditions of steel S355J2 with the highest degree of deformation manifested nearly no influence on liquid metal embrittlement. For steel S460N, the amenability to a reduction in area of the highly deformed material was degraded when compared to tests in hot air. The reason for these differences in the extent of liquid metal embrittlement during hot-dipping might have to do with a difference in microstructure, in particular with respect to the grain size and the deformation of the microstructure.
Formulation and investigation of crushed puffed rice-chitosan-HPMC based polymeric blends as carrier for sustained stomach specific drug delivery of piroxicam using 3(2) Taguchi mathematical design studies
Authors: Soni Shashank , Ram Veerma , Verma Anurag
Published: April 2018

In the present experimental investigation an attempt has been made to assess the utility of Crushed Puffed Rice (CPR)-High Molecular Weight Chitosan (HMWCH)-Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose K15M (HPMC K15M) as a polymeric carrier for the sustained stomach delivery of Piroxicam (PRX). A total of nine formulations were prepared by using 3 (2) Taguchi factorial design, physically blending drug and polymer(s) followed by encapsulation into hard gelatin capsules size 1. The prepared capsules were evaluated for various performance such as weight variation, drug contents, in vitro buoyancy and drug release in 0.1 M HCl. The effect of drug loading on in vitro performance of the formulations was also determined. Crushed puffed rice (CPR) remained buoyant for up to average time span of 06 hr as an unwetted irregular mass in 0.1 M HCl. However, when combined with HMWCH or HPMC K15M or HPMC K15M + HMWCH a low -density cylindrical raft type hydrogel was formed which remained buoyant for up to 12 hr and released up to 99% drug in a sustained manner from 8 to 12 hr following zero order release kinetics. It was also observed that drug release from drug + CPR matrices followed Fickian mechanism. Combination of CPR + HMWCH or HMWCH + HPMC K15M also follows Fickian mechanism. Obtained data from the research work suggests that CPR in combination with HMWCH or HPMC K15M or HPMC has sufficient potential to be used as a carrier for stomach specific delivery of gastric irritant drug like PRX.Soni et al., International Current Pharmaceutical Journal, April 2018, 6(11): 61-80http://www.icpjonline.com/documents/Vol6Issue11/01.pdf
Updates on Approaches to Increase the Residence Time of Drug in the Stomach for Site Specific Delivery: Brief Review
Authors: Soni Shashank , Ram Veerma , Verma Anurag
Published: April 2018

In the field of oral drug delivery system, a gastroretentive system is gaining popularity day by day. Numerous of research work and extensive literature are published in past few years on gastroretentive drug delivery system. It is the one of the best and appropriate approaches for increasing the residence time of drug in the stomach and diffuses drug slowly in the sustained manner which helps in the site-specific delivery of the drug as well also increases the bioavailability at site-specific of delivery. This helps in many challenges associated with conventional oral drug delivery system. Different ways are used for approaching gastroretention viz. swelling and expandable system, high-density system, magnetic system, bioadhesive system and buoyant system with or without gas generating agents. During data mining well in vitro characterization and in vivo characterization including gamma scintigraphic and MRI techniques are well established and reported. But, still, today in vivo characterization technique is major challenging for the researcher due to its limitation. The documented literature explains the use of animal models like beagle dogs, rabbits and human subjects for in vivo evaluation parameter but it leads to increase in variation that’s why this delivery system is limited in the market. This paper contains the latest literature compilation and various techniques used for gastroretention with its pros and cons. This review paper helps the researcher to take an overview of basics of gastroretentive drug delivery system and helps in understanding the basics of the system.Soni et al., International Current Pharmaceutical Journal, April 2018, 6(11): 81-91http://www.icpjonline.com/documents/Vol6Issue11/02.pdf
Deletion of mitochondrial inorganic pyrophosphatase gene extends life span in haploid yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)
Authors: Khandaker AM , Koc A
Published: April 2018

Aging is a universal but poorly understood biological process and its underlying mechanisms are under intensive study. Mitochondria have a central role in the studies of aging hence they supply the majority of the organisms’ energy requirement from biological fuels. However, the role of mitochondria in the aging process is more complicated than the proposed theories of aging. We addressed a question by asking whether deletion to mitochondrial metabolism genes can extend life span in haploid cell of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast). In this study, strains derived from the yeast open reading frame (ORF) deletions were screened through replicative aging assay in order to identify the mitochondrial metabolism genes that increase life span. This has resulted in the isolation of a long living (22% extended life span) mutant, ppa2Δ, which lack mitochondrial inorganic pyro phosphatase gene. The mitochondrial morphology of this long living mutant was analyzed by fluorescence microscopy. Compared to serpentine nature of wild type mitochondria, a different dynamics and distribution pattern was viewed, i.e. mitochondria were aggregated and formed colonies within the cytoplasm of this long lived cell. The aggregated mitochondrial mass was found to be intact from the young to old stage of life. Thus, this investigation reveals the longevity role of the mutant form of the gene PPA2 through an alteration of mitochondrial morphology.J. Biodivers. Conserv. Bioresour. Manag. 2017, 3(2): 69-76
“[P]lain and passive fortitude”: Stoicism and Spaces of Dissent in Sejanus
Authors: Smith M. Burdick
Published: April 2018

In Ben Jonson's Sejanus, performed at court in the first year of King James’ reign in 1603, Arruntius seemingly figures as “Jonson's spokesperson.” While lauding the moral responsibility of Arruntius, some critics have portrayed the Senator as a passive Stoic whose “only outlet is speech.” For a poet who emphasizes the moral and didactic responsibility of authorship, why, then, does his spokesman inhabit a peripheral space in criticism? Critical interpretation of Arruntius depends on the editorial decision to render many of Arruntius’ lines as asides or as public critique, and this editorial crux is examined vis-à-vis early modern attitudes toward public engagement. I argue that the play negotiates the tensions between the patient Neostoicism of Justus Lipsius and politically active Senecan Stoicism. Arruntius navigates those tensions through Ciceronian ideals of friendship, which provide an alternative to the rampant flattery and tyranny at Tiberius’ court. I show that the play responds to larger political anxieties concerning James I's recent ascension to the throne, and that interpreting early modern Stoicism as entirely passive disregards the complex discourse of friendship that permeates the period.
Jonson's Acoustic-Oriented Dramaturgy in the First Folio Playtexts ofEpicoeneandThe Alchemist
Authors: Foley Christopher D.
Published: April 2018

One significant yet understudied aspect of the First Folio printings of Epicoene and The Alchemist is that their marginal stage directions highlight the importance of Jonson's acoustic-oriented dramaturgy to both plays. In light of Jonson's recurrent associations between exposure to noise pollution and the threat of plague, this essay reads Jonson's acoustic-oriented dramaturgy in Epicoene and The Alchemist as a direct engagement with the contemporary plague-time performance settings of both plays. Moreover, when considered alongside the numerous site-specific engagements of both printed playtexts, what becomes clear is that Jonson's acoustic-oriented dramaturgy assumes an important satirical dimension directed at these plays’ earliest London audiences. First, in part through his acoustic manipulation of the indoor performance environments of the Whitefriars and Blackfriars theaters, Jonson satirically critiques the fantasies of social exclusivity embodied by Morose and Lovewit. Equally importantly, by drawing dramaturgical inspiration from the ambivalent experience of playgoing during an ongoing plague outbreak, Jonson also critiques the fantasies of social exclusivity evident among his plague-time comedies’ well-to-do London audiences.
Development of techniques for the cooling of ions
Authors: Dikansky N S , Meshkov I N , Parkhomchuk V V , Skrinsky A N
Published: April 2018

The historical development of techniques for cooling charged particles is presented. It was G I Budker, the founder and first Director of the Institute of Nuclear Physics (INP) in Novosibirsk, who initiated the development of cooling methods as a means of improving the performance of colliding beams accelerators (now known as colliders). The electron cooling method proposed by G I Budker became the main subject of investigation at BINP. Today, many facilities — ranging from the LHC to those on a moderate university scale — use the electron cooling of heavy ions in nuclear and atomic physics experiments with highly charged ions. The stochastic cooling method proposed by van der Meer has become the primary tool for accumulating and cooling antiprotons.

Beam-colliding facilities (colliders) are key to exploring the fundamental properties of matter and understanding elementary particles and their interactions. The Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics (BINP), Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, co-pioneered the development of the method of colliding beams and maintains the leading position in using it. This paper reviews the past, present, and future of research with colliding beams at the BINP.
Beams of photons with nonzero projections of orbital angular momenta: new results

Solving Maxwell’s equations in cylindrical coordinates yields states in quantum theory with definite values of energy ℏω, longitudinal momentum ℏ

, and total angular momentum projection ℏ

z
-axis (where ℏ is the Planck constant). Experimentally, values of up to ℏ

ℏ have been obtained for the last quantity. The wave front of such states is like a meat grinder screw, with the lines of force of the Poynting vector representing the screw line. Such states differ from plane waves by the nonzero orbital angular momentum projection on the direction of motion, and from spherical waves, by the definite direction of motion. For brevity, these states are referred to as ‘twisted photons’. In this paper, recent experimental and theoretical results on twisted photons are reviewed, to which the present authors actively contributed. Detailed discussion is given to recent experiments on the production of high-intensity beams of terahertz (wavelength: 140 μm) twisted photons performed on the Novosibirsk free electron laser at the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics, SB RAS. Recent theoretical work on the interaction of twisted photons with atoms is summarized. Due to their extra degree of freedom — the projection of the total angular momentum on the direction of motion — twisted photons represent a novel research tool of potentially wide application in physics.

The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, a
μ, is a unique quantity that allows high-precision tests of the Standard Model. Currently, a difference of 3 to 4 standard deviations is observed between the prediction of the Standard Model and the most precise measurement performed. We present a review of the Standard Model calculations of a
μ. The principles and history of a
μ experiments are presented, and the recent measurement at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, USA, is described in detail. Prospects for further improving the accuracy of both calculations and measurements of a
μ are discussed.
Studies on the Exergy Transfer Law for the Irreversible Process in the Waxy Crude Oil Pipeline Transportation

Published: April 2018

With the increasing demand of oil products in China, the energy consumption of pipeline operation will continue to rise greatly, as well as the cost of oil transportation. In the field of practical engineering, saving energy, reducing energy consumption and adapting to the international oil situation are the development trends and represent difficult problems. Based on the basic principle of non-equilibrium thermodynamics, this paper derives the field equilibrium equations of non-equilibrium thermodynamic process for pipeline transportation. To seek the bilinear form of “force” and “flow” in the non-equilibrium thermodynamics of entropy generation rate, the oil pipeline exergy balance equation and the exergy transfer pipeline dynamic equation of the irreversibility were established. The exergy balance equation was applied to energy balance evaluation system, which makes the system more perfect. The exergy flow transfer law of the waxy oil pipeline were explored deeply from the directions of dynamic exergy, pressure exergy, thermal exergy and diffusion exergy. Taking an oil pipeline as an example, the influence factors of exergy transfer coefficient and exergy flow density were analyzed separately.
