Deciding the Destiny of World War II Refuges from Lithuania
Authors: Pšibilskis Vygintas Bronius
Published: October 2024

During the longest and the most horrible war in the latest history - World War II (1939-1945) - 50 million people were killed and about 40 million were forced into migration and roving about the ruined Europe. Stalinist and Hitlerite occupations of Lithuania, repression, and war ruined the destinies of thousands of people. The greatest part of the political, economic, and cultural elite became refugees and exiles.The Supreme Allied Expeditionary Force took care of the homeless in the beginning. Later, international organizations such as the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration (UNRRA), International Refugee Organization (IRO), and Intergovernmental Committee on Refugees (IGCR), generously supported by the USA, took over the supervision.In special camps for displaced persons, the exiles had no rights, they suffered shortages, and endured the attempts to send them back to the subjugated country. Even in severe conditions, they did not lose the hope of returning to a free native country. There was active cultural life in the camps, which enhanced the desire to continue seeking knowledge and education.Lithuanian organizations such as the Lithuanian American Council (ALT), United Lithuanian Relief Fund of America (BALF), and Supreme Committee for the Liberation of Lithuania (VLIK) provided invaluable moral and financial support.Overcoming the Soviet Union's intentions to "return Soviet citizens" and standing up against the propagandists of the Soviet regime in America, the destiny of Lithuanian refugees - a specific part of the huge international problem of refugees - was decided during the several years following the war.Having settled in free and democratic countries after emigration, for long decades, the exiles promoted the ideas of Lithuanianism and independence. They protected the values frustrated and despised in the subjugated native land.

Landau vs Einstein: mathematics represents the universe
Authors: Gobato Ricardo , Alexandrovna Kuzmicheva Victoria , Borisovich Morozov Valery
Published: October 2024

The modern theory of gravity is the Einstein space theory, which is described by mathematical methods of tensor analysis of Riemannian geometry. Einstein built on this basis one of the most successful and amazing theories. Complexity theories often lead to the extraction of foundations and, as is customary in theory, to obtaining meaningless results. Now the entire intellectual power of numerous researchers is directed at alternative theories, often based on erroneous ideas about Einstein's theory. An example of this is the catastrophic error in the definition of the coordinate transformation in the top manual on theoretical physics by L. D. Landau and E. M. Lifshitz.
From genes to populations: developing precision medicine for acral lentiginous melanoma through in silico and epidemiological studies
Authors: Tawil Bill , Gundlapalli Sandeep Kumar
Published: October 2024

Acral Lentiginous Melanoma (ALM) is a rare and aggressive form of melanoma that predominantly affects individuals with darker skin tones, posing significant challenges in both diagnosis and treatment. The growing demand for more personalized and effective treatments has led to the exploration of innovative approaches to tackle these challenges. This study integrates in silico drug design with comprehensive statistical analysis to identify and validate therapeutic targets specific to ALM. Key genes such as PLD1, CDKN2A, KIT, TERT, and NRAS were identified using advanced bioinformatics tools like DisGeNET, PANTHER DB, Network Analyst, and STRING DB. In parallel, a detailed demographic analysis involving 248 patients was conducted using SPSS, shedding light on factors influencing knowledge and awareness of ALM within affected populations. The findings from this dual approach emphasize the critical need for tailored therapeutic strategies that account for both genetic factors and patient demographics. The projected increase in ALM cases and the associated need for targeted therapies underscore the importance of continuing research into specialized treatments that can address the unique characteristics of this melanoma subtype. By advancing our understanding of ALM’s genetic profile and epidemiology, this study lays the foundation for the development of precision medicine solutions that could significantly improve patient outcomes and overall management of this aggressive disease.
Exploring the role of personality traits in environmental stewardship: insights from the FIKR (facet, insight, knowledge, and resilience) personality assessment tool
Authors: Yap Chee Kong , Leow Chee Seng , Leong Wing Sum Vincent
Published: October 2024

This study investigates the relationship between key personality traits—Self-criticism, Dependence, Nurturance, and Emotional—and their influence on sustainability behaviours, using the FIKR (facet, insight, knowledge, and resilience). A sample of 409 individuals was analyzed to examine correlations between these traits and 19 other personality dimensions, alongside 4 demographic factors. The results reveal significant interactions, particularly how self-criticism negatively correlates with emotional expressiveness, and how nurturance and dependency are positively associated with communal and support-driven sustainability behaviours. The findings underscore the potential for tailoring environmental interventions to specific personality profiles, thereby enhancing individual engagement in sustainability efforts and contributing to the health of biological planetary systems. These insights can inform strategies for promoting long-term environmental stewardship by aligning personal traits with collective sustainability goals, thereby making a significant contribution to the field of environmental psychology.

Published: October 2024

Os medicamentos são fundamentais para a sociedade, proporcionando melhor qualidade de vida para os seres humanos, bem como para os animais. O que se debate atualmente é o descarte desses medicamentos quando eles se tornam resíduos, seja por estarem fora do prazo de validade ou por não serem mais necessários para quem os adquiriu. O descarte inadequado desses resíduos pode trazer uma série de impactos para o meio ambiente e para a saúde humana. O presente estudo objetivou verificar se as farmácias e drogarias localizadas no município de Pelotas-RS recebem medicamentos vencidos ou em desuso, dentro do sistema de logística reversa. Foram contatadas, por telefone, 120 farmácias e drogarias do município, questionando se possuíam ponto de descarte de medicamentos. Constatou-se que em apenas 29 dos estabelecimentos contactados existem pontos de descarte, representando um percentual de 24% do total. Em 91 estabelecimentos não há ponto de descarte, representando 76% do total. Em todas as farmácias e drogarias que aceitam esses medicamentos, os mesmos são recolhidos por uma empresa especializada e encaminhados para destinação final. Verificou-se que a maioria dos estabelecimentos que possui ponto de descarte está localizado no bairro centro, podendo dificultar o descarte adequado de medicamentos pelas pessoas que vivem em bairros mais distantes.

This article investigates the moral principles embedded within Suluk Linglung and its correlation with the theories posited by Lawrence Kohlberg, a prominent Western psychologist renowned for his work on moral development. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, this research relies on library research methodology for data gathering, particularly utilizing the document study method. Data analysis is conducted through descriptive analysis techniques. The research reveals that Suluk Linglung, authored by Iman Anom, a figure closely associated with Sunan Kalijaga, encapsulates the spiritual journey of Sunan Kalijaga towards attaining intellectual perfection. Within Islamic teachings, moral concepts are referred to as akhlaq, a topic extensively addressed by Sunan Kalijaga in his teachings, emphasizing the significance of moral education. The text underscores the importance of moral conduct in various aspects of human life, including relationships with the Divine, interactions with fellow beings, and self-reflection. Through juxtaposing the moral insights from Suluk Linglung with Kohlberg’s theoretical framework, this study contributes to a comprehensive understanding of moral development across different cultural and philosophical contexts.
Nilai Virginitas Bagi Masyarakat Pedesaan dalam Perspektif Feminisme Eksistensialis Simone de Beauvoir
Authors: Ni’mah Durriyatun , Rochmawati Ida
Published: October 2024

This article explores the perception of virginity value in rural communities. The article aims to address two primary inquiries: firstly, to explore the perspectives of the residents of Kandangan Village towards the value of virginity, and secondly, to examine the significance of virginity value among the inhabitants of Kandangan Village through the lens of Simone de Beauvoir’s philosophy. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, this research method serves as the primary means for the author to observe, interview, document and analyze the realities observed in the field, with data presented descriptively. The findings reveal varied perspectives on virginity value among the community members, encompassing both substantial and physical viewpoints. A notable disparity in perceptions emerged between religious leaders and the villagers, with religious leaders upholding virginity as sacred, contrasting with the perspectives of ordinary individuals. Nonetheless, the latter group predominantly views virginity as crucial for women, symbolizing honor, while it holds less significance for men due to the absence of a comparable physical indicator.

Authors: Mufidah Eni , Alamsyah Anas Amin
Published: October 2024

This article delves into the entrenched patriarchal culture that has long restrained women, perpetuating inequality and giving rise to various social problems. Consequently, there persists a pressing need for continued advocacy to safeguard women’s rights. In today’s technologically advanced era, platforms such as the internet and social media offer unprecedented avenues for communication, serving as potent forums for the exchange of ideas, including critiques of patriarchal norms. One such example is feminist activist Gita Savitri, who utilizes the YouTube platform to disseminate her perspectives on diverse social issues about women. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method, conducting analytical inquiries to elucidate the data in alignment with the research objectives. The primary data source comprises Gita Savitri’s YouTube content addressing patriarchal culture, complemented by secondary sources including scholarly literature. The analysis is conducted through the lens of Qāsim Amīn’s feminist theory. Through this examination, the research aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of patriarchal dynamics and the ongoing efforts towards gender equality. The analysis reveals that Gita Savitri’s utilization of YouTube as a platform facilitates the dissemination of feminist discourse, and the research identifies the emergence of counter-narratives within online spaces, challenging traditional patriarchal ideologies and promoting alternative perspectives on gender roles and societal norms.
Mencapai Kebahagiaan Sejati: Titik Temu Konsep Ikigai Hector Garcia dan Kimiya al-Sa‘adah al-Ghazali
Authors: Rifqiya Muhammad Afada , Mukhlis Zainal
Published: October 2024

Happiness is one of the fundamental aspirations of all humankind, yet only a select few seem to truly experience it, despite the fact that God has bestowed the gift of happiness upon all His creations. This study aims to explore the common ground and pathways to achieving happiness by examining the concept of ikigai as presented by Hector Garcia and the principles of Kīmīyā’ al-Sa‘ādah by al-Ghazālī. The research employs a descriptive approach within a qualitative framework, utilizing library research as its primary methodology. The findings reveal several key intersections between the two perspectives, including: the importance of human relationships (habl min al-nās), the need for self-recognition and self-love to attain happiness, the value of wholehearted dedication to one’s work, and the pursuit of a life purpose. According to Hector Garcia, the ikigai concept emphasizes that happiness can be found through active engagement and keeping oneself busy. Al-Ghazālī, on the other hand, posits that true happiness is attainable through a transformation of the mind and spirit. For Garcia, identifying one’s ikigai involves recognizing four essential elements within oneself: what one loves, what one is skilled at, what the world needs, and the motivation behind obtaining these things. Meanwhile, al-Ghazālī outlines foundational theories for attaining happiness, which include understanding oneself, understanding God, and understanding the nature of the world.
Investigating Import Determinants of Russian Crude Oil: A Gravity Model Approach
Authors:   Korea Association for International Commerce and Information, Anna Myalkina Anna Myalkina , Lee Choong-Bae
Published: October 2024

Russia is a major global exporter of crude oil. Due to its unique geographic, political, and economic factors, Russia's crude oil exports exhibit distinct characteristics compared to those of other oil-exporting countries. This study aims to identify the key factors influencing Russia's crude oil trade and analyze their impact on this trade. Using a gravity model, the study utilizes panel data on crude oil imports from 31 major importers from 2007 to 2022. Regression analysis integrates macroeconomic, logistical, and geopolitical variables to determine the influencing factors of Russia's crude oil trade.
The regression analysis reveals that GDP, Brent crude oil prices, EU membership, and direct pipeline connections positively affect crude oil imports from Russia. Conversely, trade distance, the Logistics Performance Index (LPI), and the imposition of sanctions on Russia negatively impact crude oil imports. These results effectively reflect the characteristics of Russia's crude oil trade. Russia's economy is heavily dependent on energy exports, and its trade focuses more on historically established energy trade relationships rather than market-driven exports. Additionally, recent years have seen a gradual shift in crude oil supply towards new markets, a trend that is also reflected in this study.
The Unhealed Wound of Radical Ukrainian Nationalism: The Russia-Ukraine War from Poland’s Perspective
Authors:   The Hebrew University of Jerusalem (Israel), Korab-Karpowicz W. Julian
Published: October 2024

The geopolitical location between Russia and Germany has historically determined Poland’s foreign policy, in which Ukraine has been given a privileged place. Polish policy-makers have perceived Ukrainian independence as the main barrier preventing the restoration of Russian imperial ambitions. Consequently, Poland has been unwavering in its commitment to supporting the Ukrainians in their resistance to the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. This attitude was visible in Poland’s Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki’s 2023 lecture at the University of Heidelberg. Nevertheless, relations between Ukraine and Poland and the current Russia-Ukraine conflict are far more complex than is mainly acknowledged. Behind Poland’s support, there is an unhealed wound of Ukrainian nationalism, which the current government in Ukraine does not want to unknowledge. The Ukrainian nationalist ideas, based on the slogan “Nation above all,” are very different from those of the Poles. Upon proper recognition of the multifaceted causes of war and the situation’s complexity, a cease-fire and a peaceful settlement of the Russia-Ukraine conflict could be achieved.

Authors: Mastroianni Fábio de Carvalho , Leão Andreza Marques de Castro
Published: October 2024

Abstract Law No. 13.431/2017 establishes the rights guarantee system for children and adolescents who are victims or witnesses of violence, aiming to standardize and organize this system by creating mechanisms to prevent, combat, and protect the youth population from violence. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of this law from the perspective of technical teams and law operators, assessing whether the predicted procedures contribute to ensuring the comprehensive protection of individuals involved in sexual violence complaints. The research employed a qualitative methodology through interviews with 13 professionals, and it is part of the first author’s doctoral thesis. Participants provided positive feedback, emphasizing advancements, while also offering criticisms and elements that deserve to be considered in the debate surrounding this law. We concluded that, despite the importance this subject demands and the legislation’s role in enhancing it, it does not demonstrate sufficient effectiveness in preventing and restraining sexual violence.

Resumo Introdução: As experiências adversas na infância podem ter impacto em vários aspectos da saúde humana. É importante termos ferramentas que possam identificá-las e quantificá-las. Objetivo: Descrever as etapas iniciais do processo de adaptação transcultural (ATC) do Questionário Internacional de Experiências Adversas na Infância (ACE-IQ) para o português do Brasil. Método: Realizamos a avaliação da equivalência conceitual, semântica e operacional da ATC nas seguintes etapas: preparação (reuniões multidisciplinares); tradução (dois tradutores independentes); reconciliação (grupo multidisciplinar); tradução reversa (tradutor independente); revisão da tradução reversa (grupo multidisciplinar); pré-testes na população-alvo (gestantes de uma maternidade pública no Rio de Janeiro); revisão dos pré-testes (grupo multidisciplinar); prova de leitura; e relatório final (grupo multidisciplinar). Resultados: Os 43 itens do ACE-IQ foram traduzidos e adaptados para português do Brasil. Antes dos pré-testes, cinco itens dos seguintes domínios foram adaptados: etnia e escolaridade (n=2), convivência familiar (n=1) e violência entre os pares (n=2). Seguiram-se três pré-testes consecutivos (10 gestantes cada). Sete itens sofreram adaptações após o primeiro pré-teste: trabalho (n=1), casamento (n=1), relacionamento com pais/responsáveis (n=2) e ambiente familiar (n=3). Após o segundo pré-teste houve somente alteração no formato das opções de resposta. No terceiro pré-teste obteve-se índice de validade de conteúdo entre 0,89 e 1 em todos os itens. Conclusões: A versão brasileira do ACE-IQ mostrou boa equivalência conceitual, semântica e operacional na amostra estudada. Estudos de validade e confiabilidade devem ser conduzidos para confirmar suas propriedades psicométricas.
The two-site Heisenberg model studied using a quantum computer: A didactic introduction
Authors: Oliveira M.G.J. , Antão T.V.C. , Peres N.M.R.
Published: October 2024

The two-site Heisenberg model has an extraordinarily simple analytical solution and is traditionally used as a benchmark against numerical methods, such as exact diagonalization and Monte Carlo methods. In the same spirit, we benchmark three quantum algorithms that are implemented in a quantum computer against the analytical solution of this model. In particular, this presentation includes a description of the standard and iterative quantum phase estimation algorithms, as well as the variational quantum eigensolver. These quantum algorithms are introduced in a pedagogical fashion allowing newcomers to the subject, familiar with only the most basic quantum mechanical systems, to easily reproduce the presented results and apply the methods to other problems, thus building a seemingly under-appreciated path towards useful quantum algorithms through the lens of simulating and computing properties of physical quantum systems.
SOBRE A SINGULARIDADE DO SUJEITO NA POSIÇÃO DE AUTOR
Authors: Carreira Alessandra Fernandes
Published: October 2024

Resumo Partindo da noção, na análise do discurso de “linha” francesa e na psicanálise lacaniana, de sujeito submetido à linguagem, explora-se a noção de autoria como uma posição do sujeito que permite o fe-chamento dos sentidos e a instalação da singularidade. Na repetição insistente de seus significantes primordiais e enigmáticos, instala-se no sujeito a busca pelo sentido, por um fechamento provisório, o que se dá a partir dos sentidos “já-lá” (interdiscurso), os quais, neste movimento, são (re)significados. É nesta (re)significação que se vislumbra a instalação da singularidade na posição de autor.

Ought to Be, Science and Being in Moral Philosophy and Legal Theory: Between Mikhail Bakhtin and Hans Kelsen
Authors: Simões Pedro Henrique de Oliveira
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT In this text, we build dialogues between Mikhail Bakhtin’s moral philosophy and Hans Kelsen’s legal theory, analyzing the notions of ought to be, science, and being. The goals are to shed light on Bakhtin’s (1999) legal foundation, from the perspective of moral philosophy as philosophia prima, which encompasses the philosophy of religion and the philosophy of law (Bakhtin, 1999; Simões, 2024); and to point out ethical considerations for the sciences, particularly for Law and Linguistics. The research is bibliographical, and the corpus consists, centrally, of the works Toward a Philosophy of the Act (Bakhtin, 1993) and General Theory of Law and State (Kelsen, 1949). Our conclusions point to Bakhtin’s (1999) contributions, which appear to be authoritative for a perspective on the ought to be in the world of life; and for the debate on ethics in the sciences (Kelsen, 1949; Rajagopalan, 2011), particularly around the scientist’s relationship with the ought to be (Bakhtin, 1999).

Published: October 2024

Resumo Interpreto as relações entre o abandono e a rememoração a partir das possibilidades de ressignificação da Fábrica de Cimento Portland de Perus. Abandonada desde a década de 1970, as instalações da falida Companhia Brasileira de Cimento Portland são, hoje, objeto de ações culturais de movimentos sociais de Perus, distrito da zona noroeste da Cidade de São Paulo. Estes procuram retomar memórias pessoais e coletivas da chamada Greve dos Queixadas, que tomou a Fábrica durante sete anos e legou ao território uma identidade de luta por direitos e cidadania. A partir da análise de entrevistas, discuto como um desses coletivos, a Comunidade Cultural Quilombaque, elabora uma contranarrativa que se opõe ao esquecimento para anunciar as potencialidades de seu território.
Tertiary spaces. Urban restructuring trends in the deindustrialization context?
Authors: Goicoechea María Eugenia , Mejica María Soledad Arqueros
Published: October 2024

Abstract This paper aims to understand and characterize the emergence of tertiary spaces in the post-industrial city, focusing on the spatial and production transformations they promote. We understand tertiary spaces as novel urban forms targeted at the spatial and production repurposing of consolidated areas that stimulate the growth of the tertiary sector, commercial vitality, and urban dynamism. The study focuses on the Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires. The methodological strategy is qualitative, and data were produced through a morpho-typological survey and interviews with municipal authorities and entrepreneurs in the sector. The results show the role played by those forms in the urban and production repurposing of previously industrial areas.
Optimal design of air chambers in water pumping systems by multiobjective genetic algorithms
Authors: Santana Laura Aurora de Melo , Soares Alexandre Kepler
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT Protection devices can be used to protect a water transmission system in a hydraulic transient state, such as the Air Chamber, which can dampen both positive and negative pressure waves. This study proposes an optimal sizing of air chambers through genetic algorithms NSGA-II and NSGA-III combined with air valves in the pipeline. A real-life transmission system located in Brasilia-Brazil was simulated and analyzed. The results indicate the effectiveness of both algorithms in seeking optimal solutions and show the influence of guaranteeing safe minimum pressures in decision-making. We generate a Pareto front and highlight the best solutions.

Samples were collected at two points (Point 1: 8°17'28.2” S; 35°59'38.6” W and Point 2: 8°17'48.1” S; 35°56'12.2” W) and in three periods: summer (November/2018), transition period (March/2018), and winter (June/2018). The most representative material was classified as silt, varying between coarse, medium, and fine. 678 meiofauna individuals were counted, distributed in four more representative taxa, Rotifera (41%), Nematoda (40%), Annelida (11%), and Copepoda (5%). The PERMANOVA analysis indicated significant differences for the period (p = 0.0009) and space (p = 0.0261) factors. There was no significant relationship between the meiofauna community structure and hyporheic environment variables. The observed differences may be linked to water quality, which also varied between the points and periods studied.

Published: October 2024

Abstract Since the formal inclusion of occupational therapists in the Unified Social Assistance System (SUAS), the number of these professionals working in this sector has grown in Brazil. Based on this context, this article aimed to understand how specific literature in the area of occupational therapy has proposed or discussed the relationship between occupational therapists and SUAS in the country. An integrative literature review was carried out in three indexed national journals. 20 texts were found, 18 of which were published in the Brazilian Journal of Occupational Therapy. Nine articles correspond to experience reports, seven refer to the medium-complexity special protection of SUAS and the adult population at social vulnerability/risk is the most addressed. Social occupational therapy has offered theoretical and methodological support for work in the social assistance sector, being the most present reference in the productions studied, which have been growing in the country. The importance of the professional category in the SUAS services is well known to, together with other professions, face the expressions of social issues. It is hoped that this literature review can contribute to disseminating the profession's practices in SUAS and highlighting its challenges, with a view to strengthening professional performance in this sector.

Abstract Introduction: The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) provides a unified framework and standardized language for describing health. It is encouraged to be used to monitor functional achievements throughout patients’ therapeutic process. Physiotherapy should provide and examine care with appropriate standardized assessments. To address both needs, a tool based on the ICF codes and qualifiers was created to monitor the therapeutic process of patients with physical disabilities. Objective: To validate the content of a physiotherapeutic functional assessment tool for children and adults with physical disabilities based on ICF codes and qualifiers. Methods: A prospective cross-sectional content-validity study was performed. The instrument was sent to 30 physiotherapists specialized in the care of individuals with physical disabilities to be evaluated for its comprehensibility, relevance and applicability for adult and pediatric population. The content validity index (CVI) was used to determine the interrater agreement, and a minimum of 90% was considered acceptable. Results: At first, one item was considered incomprehensible (CVI ≤ 90%); and, together with other six items that received important suggestions, they were revised and considered comprehensible after revision. Forty items were considered relevant for both populations, although some differences led to two different instruments. Conclusion: We were able to provide an ICF based tool with highly comprehensible and relevant items to address individuals with physical disabilities.

Aim. To determine optimal timing for laparoscopic cholecystectomy in elderly and senile patients with cholecystostomy.

Materials and methods. Treatment results of 37 patients aged 60 years and over at different terms after cholecystostomy formation were analyzed. The degree of senile asthenia, concomitant diseases, technical features of surgical aid, dynamics of the postoperative period, as well as morphological features of inflammatory changes in the gallbladder wall were assessed.

Results. Pre-asthenia was detected in 12 (32%) patients, mild senile asthenia – in 14 (38%) patients, and moderate senile asthenia – in 11 (30%) patients. Polymorbidity was determined in all patients, with 23 patients having four or more diseases. In 3 (8%), 15 (40.5%), 15 (40.5%), and 4 (11%) cases, laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed 3–9 days, 10–30 days, 2–6 months, and 6 months or more (1 conversion) after cholecystostomy.

Conclusion. In elderly and senile patients, laparoscopic cholecystectomy performed 10–30 days after cholecystostomy is optimal, safe, and affordable. Radical intervention in this period is not associated with technical difficulties. Reduced terms of external drainage of the gallbladder contribute to improving the elderly patient’s quality of life and their social adaptation, while shortening the period of postoperative recovery. When planning surgical interventions in a patient over 60 years old, account should be taken of comorbidities, polypragmasy, and senile asthenia.

Published: October 2024

Transition metal-doped diluted semiconductor materials have attracted significant interest in spintronic applications. In order to investigate the structural, optical, electrochemical, and magnetic properties of these diluted magnetic semiconductors, transition metal-doped ZnO thin films were successfully produced at room temperature using a low-cost sol-gel spin coating technique with the same molar ratios. XRD analyses revealed that all samples adopted the crystal structure of ZnO. Optical measurements indicated high transparency in the visible region for all samples, while electrical measurements confirmed that all samples were n-type semiconductors. Finally, magnetic measurements showed that pure ZnO and Al-doped ZnO exhibited diamagnetic behavior, while Ni and Co doped ZnO displayed magnetic behavior. These results show that Co and Ni-doped ZnO films can be used as diluted magnetic semiconductor materials in spintronic applications.
New Integrated and Differentiated Sequence Spaces ∫ b_p^(r,s) and db_p^(r,s)
Authors: Topal Kübra
Published: October 2024

In this work, we construct new sequence spaces by combining the integrated and differentiated sequence spaces with the binomial matrix. Firstly, we provide information about basic matters such as sequence spaces and matrix domain. Subsequently we briefly summarize some sequence spaces generated by the binomial matrix. Thereafter, we define the integrated and differentiated sequence spaces and establish the new sequence spaces. Afterwards, we examine some properties and the inclusion relations of these new sequence spaces. We also determine the α, β and γ-duals of the integrated and differentiated sequence spaces. Finally, we characterize some matrix classes associated with the new sequence spaces.
Democratic Stability and Backsliding

Authors: Pevnick Ryan
Published: October 2024

In light of mounting concerns about democratic backsliding, Rawls’s work – which has an unusual focus on considerations of stability – is now being mined for insights about democratic fragility. This paper begins by arguing that the key mechanism underlying Rawls’s account of stability cannot, consistent with a proper recognition of the burdens of judgment, explain what makes democratic stability possible. It is, therefore, not well-positioned to help us to think productively about how to mitigate the risk of backsliding. Building on an influential literature in political science, I describe an alternative way of thinking about what enables democratic stability that focuses on the importance of giving key actors self-interested reasons for compliance. This account provides a more productive framework for understanding the causes, and thinking about how to mitigate the risk, of backsliding. It should, therefore, contribute to how we evaluate political institutions and proposed reforms.
Model of time-distance curve of electromagnetic waves diffracted on a local feature in the georadar study of permafrost zone rock layers
Authors: Sokolov K. О.
Published: October 2024

In GPR (georadar) studies, one of the most popular procedures for determining electromagnetic waves propagation velocity in a rock mass is the selection of theoretical hyperbolic time-distance curves and subsequent comparison with the time-distance curve obtained from a GPR measurement. This procedure is based on the model of homogeneous medium, but nowadays the subject of GPR study is often inhomogeneous media, such as horizontally layered media characteristic of loose permafrost zone sediments. The paper presents the findings of studying the formation of hyperbolic time-distance curves of georadar impulses in a horizontally layered medium without taking into account the dispersion and absorption of electromagnetic waves. On the basis of geometrical optics laws, formulas were derived to calculate the shape of the hyperbolic lineup of georadar impulses reflected from a local feature in a multilayer frozen rock mass. On the example of a permafrost zone rock mass containing a layer of unfrozen rocks, the effect of the thicknesses of rock layers and their relative dielectric permittivity on the apparent dielectric permittivity resulting from the calculation of the theoretical hyperbolic time-distance curve was shown. The conditions under which it is impossible to determine the presence of a layer of unfrozen rocks from a hyperbolic time-distance curve are also presented. The established regularities were tested on synthetic georadar radargrams calculated in the gprMax software program. The findings of the theoretical studies were confirmed by the comparison with the results of the analysis of the georadar measurements computer simulation data in the gprMax system (the relative error was less than 0.5%).
