Published: December 2024

Turkish food culture has great importance in world culture. From Ottoman cuisine to Turkish cuisine traditional beverages culture has been moved. There is also a melon seed sherbet which is among the traditional drinks but has lost its importance.In the scope of culinary tourism, which can not only ensure the transmission of cultural data from the past to the future but also create financial income, is an interesting concept that involves many ingredients in the new industrial climates and the spreading international travel concept in the countries. In this study, because of being a drink with alternative and gastronomic value, analyzes were made to determine the nutritional content and value of sübye, which is locally produced in Izmir and supplied from public sales area. In study, we determined that the values of moisture, protein, ash, fat and sugar were 89.58%, 0.99%, 0.16%, 1.68% and 7.59%, respectively. The values of mineral content are magnesium 6.0 mg/100 g and iron 0.4 mg/100 g. Arsenic in the beverage was not detected. It has been found that with the high protein and low fat content of the sübye, it can be seen as a healthy and alternative drink which can be consumed by each age group. In terms of gastronomy tourism and sustainability, sübye stands out as a cultural beverage that can play a key role in both preserving traditional culinary heritage and offering a unique, health-conscious option in the modern food and drink market, making it an attractive feature for culinary tourism.

TÜRK VE İSLAM SANATINDA HAYVAN FİGÜRÜ:GELENEKSEL VE DİNİ YAKLAŞIMLAR
Authors: Çok Beste
Published: December 2024

Temelde hayvancılıkla uğraşan göçebe ve yarı göçebe Türklerin sosyo-kültürel yapısı ile hayvan üslubu olarak bilinen kendilerine has özgün üslupları, İslam sanatının da en erken döneminde önemli bir yer tutar. Hayvan üslubunun doğuşu ve gelişmesi Hunlarla doğrudan ilgili olmakla birlikte, en ilginç uzantıları Anadolu Selçuklu sanatında takip edilebilmektedir. Hayvan figürleri ile birlikte doğan hayvan üslubu, her şeyden önce Asya doğasının yabani hayvanlarını ve fantastik yaratıklarını konu alır. Bu hayvanlar arasında aslan, kaplan, kartal, doğan gibi yırtıcı memeliler ile geyik boğa, dağ keçisi, at ve kurt gibi Türkler için sembolik anlamlara sahip hayvanlar da İslam sanatlarında geniş bir şekilde ele alınmıştır. Ayrıca konu irdelenirken Türklerin geçmişte İslamiyet’i benimsemeden önceki Hristiyanlık ve Museviliğe de bağlandıklarını unutmamak gerekir. Geçmişte farklı dinlere inanan Türklerin din değiştirmeleri söz konusu olsa dahi, asırlardan beri süregelen sanat ve kültürlerini hiçbir zaman geri planda bırakmayarak, onları terk etmemişlerdir. Anadolu’ya ilk ayak bastıkları dönemlerden bugüne dek geçen süreçte kabul ettikleri çeşitli inanç sistemlerinin etkisinde, örf- adet gelenek ve göreneklerini son derece korudukları dini inançlarının getirdiği birtakım kurallar, kaideler ve prensipler doğrultusunda sanat faaliyetlerini de devam ettirdikleri, günümüze kadar gelen eserlerden anlaşılabilmektedir. Çalışmamız ile Türklerin İslamiyet’i kabullerinden önceki inanç sistemlerinin, İslamiyet sonrası sanatlarına ne şekilde yansıdığı, hangi aşamalardan geçtiği, geçmişte inandıkları dinlerin yaşantılarında ve icra ettikleri sanatlarında ne gibi etkilerinin olduğu ve benzeri sorulara cevap aramak, bizlere İslam sanatında hayvan figürü sorunsalının var olup olmadığının yanıtını da bulmamıza olanak sağlayacaktır. İslam dininde “Allah” zaman ve mekandan münezzeh olduğu için ve de Kur’-anı Kerim’de geçen ayetlerde “O doğmamış, doğurmamıştır” ifadelerine yer verildiğinden resim, heykel, figür kısaca figür tasviri konusunda çekimser kalan Müslümanlar bilhassa ibadet yeri olan camilerde figür konusuna girmemeye özen göstererek, yaratılış hamlelerinden uzak durmaya hassasiyet göstermiştir.
HİCRİ DÖRDÜNCÜ ASIRDAN PSİKANALİZE BİR SESLENİŞ: EBUBEKİR ER-RAZİ VE MELANIE KLEIN’İN ‘HASET’ ÜZERİNE DÜŞÜNCELERİ HAKKINDA BİR İNCELEME
Authors: Doğanay Süleyman
Published: December 2024

Bireyin dünyaya bakış tarzı, fiziksel ve sosyal çevresiyle ilişkisi, psikolojik ve ahlakî açıdan ilkellik veya olgunluk arasında seyretmektedir. Haset duygudurumu, bireyin hem ruh sağlığını tehdit eden hem de sosyal ilişkilerini zedeleyen bir tarafının olması hasebiyle tüm teolojilerde yerilen, kınanan ilkel bir insanî özellik şeklinde karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışmada öncelikle çoğu zaman birbiriyle eşanlamlı olarak kullanılan ancak kaynağı, yönü ve zararları itibariyle birbirinden tamamen farklı olan ‘haset’ ve ‘kıskançlık’ kavramlarının etimolojisine bakılmıştır. Daha sonra İslamî kültürde tabiat felsefesinin kurucusu kabul edilen Ebu Bekir er-Razi ile psikanalizin temsilcilerinden, nesne ilişkileri teorisyeni Melanie Klein’in ‘haset’ üzerine değerlendirmeleri analiz edilmiştir. Ebu Bekir er-Razi, bireyin ilkellikten olgunluğa gidiş sürecini sırasıyla şuhl, buhl, gıpta, sehavet, işar, cuud ve fakr halleriyle açıklamaktadır. Ebu Bekir er-Razi, şuhl ve buhl kavramlarıyla hasedi analiz ederken Melanie Klein ise insanın bu yolculuğunun haset, açgözlülük, kıskançlık ve şükran hallerinin yaşanmasıyla gerçekleşeceğini iddia etmektedir. Çalışmada kaynak taraması yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Sonuç olarak Ebu Bekir er-Razi ile Melanie Klein’in farklı zamanlarda ve farklı pencerelerden baktıkları haset duygudurumunun kaynağı ve bireyin ruh sağlığına zararları hususunda aynı noktalara temas ettikleri ve haset itkisinden korunmak için aynı tavsiyelerde bulundukları sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

Published: December 2024

We report the case of a middle-aged woman with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome who developed metachronous breast and lung cancers, because lung cancer is infrequently associated with PJS, especially for women with this disorder. At the age of 12 years, the patient was diagnosed with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome owing to the presence of multiple hamartomatous polyps in the gastrointestinal tract and mucocutaneous melanin pigmentation. She developed breast cancer and underwent curative mastectomy and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy at 48 years of age. Five years later, computed tomography showed multiple lung nodules. The pathological diagnosis of the lung lesion was a mucinous adenocarcinoma, which differed from that of the resected breast cancer. She then received cisplatin/ pemetrexed therapy combined with pembrolizumab for non-small cell lung cancer, which reduced the size of the lung tumors. However, the disease eventually progressed, and she underwent a gene panel test because of the refractoriness to pharmacotherapy, which demonstrated a germline STK11 pathogenic variant.
Viral infections; affect genital system in female cats
Authors: Saat Nevzat , Çetinkaya Yusuf Bilal
Published: December 2024

Infertility in cats is a common reproductive disorder caused by genetic, environmental, and infectious factors. This review focuses on infertility caused by viral infections in cats. Previous studies have demonstrated that viruses such as Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV), Feline Panleukopenia Virus (FPLV), Feline Calicivirus (FCV), and Feline Herpesvirus (FeHV) contribute to infertility in cats by directly damaging reproductive organs or by weakening the immune system. Furthermore, the immunosuppression caused by these viruses makes cats more susceptible to secondary infections, which severely impacts reproductive health. This article highlights the critical importance of understanding, preventing, and managing infertility associated with viral infections in cats.
TESTICULAR SPARING SURGERY IN SMALL TESTICULAR LESIONS: FUNCTIONAL AND ONCOLOGICAL OUTCOMES
Authors: Göğer Yunus Emre
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT
Objective: To evaluate our testis-sparing surgery ( TSS) experiences in our clinic and outline its oncological and functional outcomes.
Materials and Methods: Patients who underwent TSS due to testicular mass in our clinic between 2008 and 2023 were included in the study. Patients with a mass in solitary testis, bilateral testicular mass as well as patients with a normal contralateral testis and a mass of less than 2 cm or less than 30% of the testicular volume were included in the study. Patient demographics, tumor characteristics, and follow-up data were collected and analyzed statistically.
Results: A total of 26 patients who underwent TSS were evaluated. Germ Cell Tumor (GCT ) was detected in 9 patients, and benign testicular mass was detected in 17 patients. The mean patient age was 25±6.1 (18-69) years. The mean tumor size was 12.9±4.4 (range 7-24) mm in all patients. Patients with GCTs were followed up for a mean of 21.8±7.8 (10-36) months. Local recurrence was observed in one patient during follow-up, and radical orchiectomy was performed. No recurrence or metastasis was observed in other patients during the follow-up period. Benign lesions were followed up for 21.5±9.3 (10-38) months. Recurrence was not observed. There was no significant decrease in testosterone levels after surgery (p=0.3).
Conclusions: Excellent outcomes for benign tumors using TSS were obtained in the present study. TSS could be suggested as a safe and effective treatment option in patients with germ cell tumors, as in the present study. However, more data regarding the potential risks and benefits of TSS with a larger patient series is needed.

A Novel Approach for Portfolio Optimization Using Fuzzy AHP Based on Gustafson Kessel Clustering Algorithm
Authors: Erbay Dalkılıç Türkan , Akbaş Yeşim , Akbaş Serkan
Published: December 2024

Portfolio management involves modeling risk-return relationships. However, the diverse factors impacting financial markets introduce uncertainty into future portfolio selection. The aim of this study is to propose a portfolio selection model to assist investors in creating the most suitable investment plan in the financial market uncertainty. In this context, a preliminary reduction step is applied to the stocks using the Gustafson-Kessel (GK) algorithm, a fuzzy clustering method, to select portfolio stocks. Later, trapezoidal fuzzy numbers (TrFNs) were defined instead of triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs) used in the Constrained Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for portfolio selection problems. By using new fuzzy numbers, the weights of the criteria were obtained as TrFNs. Then, a linear programming problem was modeled using the weights of the obtained criteria as a TrFN. For this purpose, a method available in the literature was used that uses price variables in the objective function as TFNs. In this study, a linear programming model that uses these variables as TrFNs is proposed as an alternative to the method that uses the price variables in the objective function as TFNs. In this proposed model, the weights obtained from the Constrained Fuzzy AHP using TrFNs are used as price variables in the objective function of the created linear programming problem. Proposed model then applied to the 48-month return data set of stocks in the Istanbul Stock Exchange 100 (ISE-100) index to determine which stocks the investor should choose and the investment rates investor should make in these stocks. In addition, in order to examine the effectiveness of the proposed model within the scope of the study, portfolio distributions were obtained with different portfolio optimization methods using the same data set and the results were compared.
An Analysis of the Relationship Between Investor Risk Appetite and CDS Premiums in Turkey Using Asymmetric Methods
Authors: İltaş Yüksel , Güzel Adnan
Published: December 2024

In this study, the asymmetric relationship between the Risk Tendency Indices calculated for each investor type and Turkey's CDS premium is investigated. The data set of the study consists of weekly frequency data covering the period April 2010-December 2023. Nonlinear ARDL (NARDL) method and Hatemi-J and Roca (2014) asymmetric causality test was used in the empirical analysis of the study. The findings show that in the long run, positive changes in the CDS premium have a greater impact on REKS Domestic and REKS Qualified indices than negative changes, while negative changes in the CDS premium have a greater impact on REKS Domestic Real, REKS Domestic Corporate and REKS Domestic Funds indices than positive changes. These findings reveal that the effects of market risks and uncertainties on investor groups are asymmetric.
Romantik Kırılma ya da Aydınlanmacı Yenilenme
Authors: İsbir Erdal
Published: December 2024

Aydınlanma düşüncesine yönelik çağdaş eleştiriler, aydınlanmacı ideallere ilişkin bir kuşkuya neden olmuştur. Özellikle modern düşünceye yöneltilen felsefi eleştirilerin, günümüzde “özgürlük” ve “insan haklarına” mesafeli yaklaşan popülist politikalar olarak bedene bürünmesi, gerçekten de “modern günahların” bütünüyle, aydınlanmacı ideallere yüklenip yüklenemeyeceği sorusunu yerinde ve haklı kılar. Böylesi bir sorunun yanıtlanması, modern aydınlanmacı idealler ile modern Aydınlanma düşüncesinin söylemi arasındaki bağa odaklanmayı gerektirdiği kabul edilmelidir. Bu kabule dayanan bu çalışma, bu bağa odaklanmakta ve Aydınlanmanın ilk eleştirisi olan erken Alman romantizminde modern eleştirilerin izlerini aramaktadır. Bu bakımdan burada, henüz Aydınlanmanın ilk zamanlarında erken Alman romantizminin, ona hangi konularda karşı çıktığı incelenmektedir. Bu incelemeyle, erken Alman romantizmi ile Aydınlanma arasındaki ilişkinin, romantik bir kırılma mı yoksa aydınlanmacı bir yenilenme mi olduğu sorusuna yanıt aranmaktadır.
EXTREMISM IN PRE-ISLAMIC ARAB SOCIETY: A Perspective on Moderate Values and Tolerance
Authors: Sabiruddin Sabiruddin , Nurfadhilah Nurfadhilah , Bukhari Bukhari , Aryanti Yosi , Engkizar Engkizar
Published: December 2024

Abstract: This study is inspired by the social norms of pre-Islamic Arab society, which often sparked issues related to gender equality and tolerance. These norms were marked by acts of inhumane violence that stood in stark contrast to the teachings of Islam. Unfortunately, similar problems still exist in modern society. This article aims to examine the extremism found in the inhumane social rules of pre-Islamic Arab society through the lens of Islamic values of moderation and tolerance, while also reflecting on parallels in today’s world. Using a case study approach and a comparative analysis, the research explores the social conditions of pre-Islamic Arab society alongside current social realities. The study uncovers four key findings. First, the oppression of women through practices like slavery and female infanticide represents acts of severe extremism. Second, the culture of constant warfare, fueled by disputes and tribal fanaticism, was a hallmark of the time. Third, the unfair practices surrounding marriage and divorce caused significant harm to women. Finally, the study highlights striking similarities between the pre-Islamic era and contemporary society, where a lack of commitment to the Islamic principles of moderation and tolerance continues to contribute to social challenges.

FEATURES OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF GLAUKONITE IN THE DNIEPER-DONETS DEPRESSION. ARTICLE 2: QUATERNARY SEDIMENTS
Authors: Baran Andrii M.
Published: December 2024

The distribution of such promising agrochemical raw materials as glauconites in the Cenozoic sediments of the Dnieper-Donetsk depression is considered. The research was based on the materials of geological maps of 1:200 000 scale issued in different years. It was confirmed that glauconite is contained in the sediments of the Paleogene, Neogene and Quaternary systems of this structure. To the greatest extent, it is inherent in the Paleogene formation, where it is present in all their stratigraphic units and is one of the most widespread minerals. It was found that on the scale of systems, the bulk of glauconite regularly decreases in the direction Paleogene → Neogene → Quaternary system. In the deposits of the latter, it occurs mainly in the lowermost sedimentary strata and is redeposited from older rocks. At the lithological level, the most glauconite-bearing are sands, sandstones and siltstones. In the horizontal plane, the most promising for production is the edge and part of the depression. In general, the wide distribution of Paleogene formations indicates the unlimited mineragenic potential of the depression on glauconite raw materials. The highest concentrations of glauconite are concentrated in the Kanev and Kharkiv series. The deposits of the latter also have a high average content of glauconite, are more often exposed, occur in favorable mining and technical conditions, and therefore are the most promising industrially. In the northeastern part of the structure, favorable conditions of occurrence and a high content of glauconite are sometimes found in the deposits of the Kyiv series. In some stratigraphic units of the Paleogene, an increase in the content of glauconite in its axial part is observed in different parts of the axial region. The industrial value of deposits of the Paleogene system as a potential agrochemical raw material is often increased by the presence of phosphorites in them.

Published: December 2024

The purpose of the study is to assess and rank the state of the geological environment of the territories of industrial and urban agglomerations of Kyiv and Kharkov in terms of vulnerability to natural-technogenic impacts. The geo-information approach was applied to determine the boundaries of the industrial-urban agglomerations of Kyiv and Kharkiv. The main satellite cities of three levels were identified by distance from the main city and functional purpose. The area, population, relief, type of soil, hydrographic network, development of engineering-geological processes, presence of industrial enterprises are also taken into account.
The classification of the state of the geological environment of these areas according to their vulnerability to emergency events is substantiated. A structured database containing information on natural characteristics (type of sediments, zones of geodynamic activity, hydrogeological and geomorphological conditions, engineering-geological processes) and technogenic aspects (settlement areas, transport infrastructure, industrial facilities) was developed in the ArcGIS geoinformation system. The input data was vectorised, processed using the method of area quadratic estimation and statistical data analysis. The resulting cartogram was constructed by us on the basis of ranking by point integral assessment. For each individual quadrat the vulnerability of the area is determined as a result of taking into account a number of factors (F 1–8) and assigned to one of the four types of geological environmentFor the ranking, each of the man-made and natural parameters was ranked according to its importance (criteria) and assigned a point weight. The «unsatisfactory condition» is characterized by 18% and 9% of the areas of the territories of Kyiv and Kharkiv industrial and urban agglomerations, respectively. They have a potentially high risk of a hazardous event, limited to the distribution of deposits of loess formation, zones of transition of lithological composition of soils, karst processes, steep river banks, settlements with high industrial potential. Possible negative consequences, risk potentials and the need to manage them have been characterised for the types of geological environment
Krasnoyarsk self-government bodies in the struggle for the landscaping of Krasnoyarsk and its sanitary condition in the period of the 1950s and early 1960s
Authors: Soldatenko Dmitry Yurievich
Published: December 2024

The purpose of the study is to show the role of local authorities of Krasnoyarsk in the postwar period (middle 1950s – early 1960s) in organizing landscaping and improving the sanitary condition of the city. The article analyzes the work of some institutions, such as the Executive Committee of the Krasnoyarsk City Council of Workers, the City Council, the State Farm, the Cleaning Trust, etc. The paper presents both quantitative and qualitative indicators for landscaping, improvement, and sanitation, and identifies the successes and failures of local authorities in these areas of urban development. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the fact that the article presents archival documents that were first introduced into scientific circulation. These materials make it possible to fill in the gaps in understanding the process of beautification of Krasnoyarsk during the Soviet period, as well as to give a more complete picture of the interaction of authorities, local governments and the population in solving housing and communal services and urban planning issues. The topic of urban improvement in Eastern Siberia in the post-war decades remains insufficiently studied, which makes this work relevant and interesting for historical science. As a result of the conducted research, a new stage of industrial modernization of the city of Krasnoyarsk in the postwar period was identified, associated with the active development of infrastructure and improvement of living conditions of the population.
The core of Yakut linguistic consciousness: Structure and key elements
Authors: Vasileva Alina Petrovna
Published: December 2024

The purpose of the study is to identify the structural and substantive features, and national and cultural specifics at the core of the linguistic consciousness of native speakers of the Yakut language. The article identifies and describes the structure of the core of the Yakut linguistic consciousness based on the materials of the Associative Dictionary of the Yakut language, created on the results of free associative experiments in 2005-2010. The lexical and grammatical characteristics of the core units are considered, special attention is paid to paired words in the composition "reaction – stimulus" in the associative field. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the fact that for the first time a meaningful analysis of words in the core of the linguistic consciousness of native speakers of the modern Yakut language is carried out, which will make it possible to build its structure and identify the features of the national and cultural specifics of the image of the world. As a result of the study, it was found that the core of the Yakut linguistic consciousness reflects the specifics of the language through complex interrelations between the phenomena of polysemy and homonymy, as well as high lexical variability, which emphasizes cultural and cognitive meanings rooted in the linguistic picture of the world.
“Storming” of the Capitol in German online media as an example of conflict political discourse
Authors: Sobolev Igor Dmitrievich , Yudin Nikita Olegovich
Published: December 2024

The research aims to expand the boundaries of scientific knowledge in the field of understanding the problem of representation of acute political events by the media as a reflection of their author’s perception, which finds expression in linguistic consciousness and linguistic worldview. The article provides a political and linguistic analysis of the event “storming the Capitol” from the point of view of its presentation in the texts of German online media. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that politics in this work is considered as a speech activity, and the acute situation, which was the “storming of the Capitol”, is studied from the standpoint of its historical and linguistic representation, taking into account the ability of the language of the media to create the desired political interpretation of acute situations. This reflects the pragmatics of the media, capable of talking about similar political events in different ways, creating the prerequisites for the public perception of similar phenomena. The results obtained showed that the event of the “storming” of the Capitol, which took place on January 6, 2021, is described by German media using conflict-generating vocabulary, lexical units that reveal the manifestation and linguopragmatics of the conflict through the pragmatic potential of linguistic units that reflect the substantive side of classical conflict rhetoric, as well as the tactics of invective.

Skin is an external organ that covers the human body and plays an important role in maintaining the health and integrity of the body. One of the main threats to the skin is skin cancer, which can cause serious damage and even death. Traditional diagnosis of skin cancer often involves expensive and invasive biopsies. Risk factors include exposure to ultraviolet light, genetic factors, unhealthy lifestyles, and human papillomavirus infection. Early detection is very important but difficult because it is difficult to differentiate between malignant and non-malignant skin lesions. Deep learning methods, such as Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), offer solutions with accurate skin image classification capabilities, facilitating faster and more efficient skin cancer diagnosis. This study explores the use of CNNs to classify skin cancers based on dermoscopic images. With a dataset of 10,015 images divided into training data (75%) and test data (25%), the model developed using transfer learning techniques achieved 97.38% accuracy, with validation accuracy of 97.39% after 200 epochs. White box testing shows two independent paths, indicating the program is not complex and easy to fix. Black box testing and User Acceptance Testing (UAT) show a 100% success rate. The classification shows an average precision, recall, and f1_score value of 97%, which is a significant increase from previous research. This research also corrects the weaknesses of previous research by increasing the number of classes from two to seven, and the dataset from 5,000 to 10,015 images, resulting in a more accurate and representative diagnosis in skin cancer detection.

Authors:   Vinh University, College of Social Sciences and Humanities, Faculty of Politics and Journalism, Nghe An Province, Vietnam, TUAN Phan Van
Published: December 2024

Socio-economic development policies for ethnic minority areas in rural areas aim to promote socio-economic
development, comprehensively improve the lives of ethnic minorities in rural areas, and at the same time protect culture and
environment. Factors influencing socio-economic development policies for ethnic minority areas in rural areas play an
important role in shaping, implementing, and effectiveness of policies. Understanding and adjusting these factors will help
policies achieve better results, creating sustainable and equitable development conditions for ethnic minority areas. The study
aims to identify and analyze factors affecting the implementation of socio-economic development policies in ethnic minority
areas in rural areas. The research data was collected in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam. In the questionnaire survey, 936 people
directly answered the questionnaire. SPSS 25 and AMOS 24 software were used for data analysis. The data collection process
was carried out between April and July 2024. The implementation methods include data descriptive statistics, testing scales,
analysis of factor fit, and testing research structure. The research results show six factors affecting socio -economic
development policies for ethnic minority areas in rural areas, including nature and geography, socio-economics, socio-culture,
policy and law, politics and security, and international cooperation. This study provides administrators with a comprehensive
view of the factors affecting development policies, thereby helping to optimize development strategies and improve efficiency
for ethnic minority areas in rural areas.
Design of a compact wideband antenna with a stable radiation pattern for application in small-sized UAVs
Authors:   «AIRBURG» JSC  620063, Russia, Yekaterinburg, 8-marta str., 49, floor 3, Shishkin M.S.
Published: December 2024

This paper presents a method to obtain a stable toroidal radiation pattern in a wide frequency range for a small-sized antenna based on a printed asymmetrical dipole. The method lies in the application of a broadband rectangular exciter (first arm) and matching it with a 50-Ohm input connector using a quarter-wave transformer based on microstrip transmission lines and a special form of a second arm. According to the proposed method, a printed antenna has been designed with two wide matching bands with reflection coefficient levels (module S11) of no more than minus 10 dB: 1677-2786 MHz (50%) and 3230-3801 MHz (16.2%). It forms a toroidal field in the frequency range of 1500-4000 MHz with a gain of at least 2 dBi in the direction of maximum radiation. The shape of the radiation pattern is quite stable over the entire frequency range; the maxima are polarized perpendicular to the antenna axis. The designed antenna was manufactured, and its characteristics were measured. This antenna is primarily applied to wireless communication systems for unmanned aerial systems and is intended to be installed on unmanned aerial vehicles to provide radio coverage in all azimuth directions. The manufactured antenna is compact (the antenna printed circuit board, without connector, is 63×22.5×1 mm3 or 0.35λmax×0.125λmax×0.006λmax); it is light (no more than 10 g including the connector), and its unique shape allows the antenna to be used without a dome, not reducing the aerodynamic properties of the vehicle.
Method for calculating an electron gun forming an axially symmetric beam
Authors:   State Scientific Center of the Russian Federation "Keldysh Research Center" 125438, Russia, Moscow, Onega St., 8., Rizakhanov R.N.
Published: December 2024

The problem of formation of intense axially symmetric electron beams in electron guns is considered. A new method to solving the external synthesis problem is proposed, in the method the potential distribution required to form a beam of a given configuration is determined. The method is based on the use of axial potential and charge density obtained when solving the internal beam problem. It is shown that this solution method allows calculating the shape of the electrodes, by restoring the potential from the axis of the gun, and not from the curvilinear boundary of the beam.
TA New Take on the Wrath of the Aeacids in a 21st Century Portuguese Rewriting of Trojan Women
Authors: Ferreira Lopes Maria José
Published: December 2024

The Portuguese novelist and playwright Hélia Correia’s quest for understanding “the Greece within herself” had already led to three theatrical “Exercises” about major tragic protagonists – Antigone, Helen and Medea – when she focused on the Trojan Women, this time together with Jaime Rocha. The play As Troianas (2018) follows trends of the previous plays, like the denunciation of the horrors of war and its heroic framework. Following Euripides’ The Trojan Women and Hecuba, the central events are the distribution of female trophies and the human sacrifices demanded by the merciless winners. However, to the aristocratic resolve of Euripides’ Polyxena, As Troianas adds a feminist stance that gives her a wider reach. Furthermore, the prominence of the two Aeacids, whose wrath and cruelty stand out in successive scenes, suggests a parallel with Seneca the Younger's Troades. The colloquial tone of As Troianas, typical of our times, differs from Seneca's solemn and philosophic rhetoric, but both plays underline the brutality and hypocrisy of human deeds. In addition to the analysis of how As Troianas took inspiration from and innovated the creations of Antiquity, the present relevance of past reflections on the impact of war on women will be highlighted in this paper.
Challenging Social Boundaries in the Poetry of Thuraya Al Arrayed
Authors: Azhar Hadeel
Published: December 2024

This study highlights Thuraya Al Arrayed’s unconventional portrayal of women in selected revolutionary poems that address the concept of women’s rights. It explores how Al Arrayed’s representation of women challenged the restrictions imposed on Saudi women before the reign of King Salman Al Saud and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Thus, this research adds to the existing body of knowledge by offering a new approach to Al Arrayed’s poetry concerning the aspects of women’s rights in contemporary Saudi Arabia. By considering Al Arrayed’s radical choice of metaphors and images, I aim to establish Al Arrayed as a significant female poet whose poetry embraces a literary tradition that questions negative gendered attitudes biased against passionate women. In my approach to Al Arrayed’s poetry, I consult selected poems from her published and unpublished volumes, along with biographical notes based on personal interviews. Additionally, I examine sociological research on the changing role of women, which coincides with the transitional phase in contemporary Saudi Arabia. To my knowledge, the thematic focus offered in this article is absent from contemporary literature. Therefore, the significance of this research lies in its contribution to advancing the discourse on Al Arrayed by addressing aspects not previously considered.
Going English: Anglicisation of Family Names in Greek Migrant Communities in Australia
Authors: Kafcaloudes Phil
Published: December 2024

Greek migration to Australia over the last 200 years has necessarily meant a confluence of cultures: European to Antipodean; Greek to British-Australian. Across this period Australia has devolved from a Fortress Australia mentality, exemplified by the softening of the racially exclusionary White Australia policy years into a period of assimilation in the 1940s, to integration (1970s) to multiculturalism from the 1980s onwards. Nevertheless, attitudinal remnants of the race-based exclusionary policies of the pre-war era continued to be felt even in the more inclusionary late 20th century. Across these periods many Greek migrants to Australia felt the need to anglicise their family names. For this paper Australian Greeks and their children are surveyed to assay how and why these anglicisations were done, with the questions also aiming to assess whether such anglicisation is as prevalent now as it was in the post-war period and, as a result, have migrants’ perceptions of Australian attitudes changed over the last two generations. On a sociological level, for a name-proud Greek culture, this is a study central not only to migratory and cultural issues but to the broader question of personal identity and how that may change when moving from one country to another.
