The radio signals emitted by Extensive Air Showers have been successfully used for the last decade by LOFAR to reconstruct the properties of the primary cosmic rays. Since an effective real-time recognition system for the very short radio pulses is lacking, cosmic-ray acquisition is currently triggered by an external array of particle detector, called LORA, limiting the LOFAR collecting area to the area covered by LORA. A new algorithm for the real-time cosmic-ray detection has been developed for the LOFAR Low Band Antenna, which are sensitive between 10 and 90 MHz, and is here presented together with the latest results.

Authors: Mikuličová Michaela , Vašek Vladimír , Křesálek Vojtěch
Published: September 2019

In this paper, steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy is used to investigate the curing of two-component epoxy resin LG 285. Moreover, the process of curing is mathematically described. The mixture of resin and hardener HG 287 is measured at five different temperatures (50 °C, 60 °C, 70 °C, 80 °C and 90 °C) for five and a half hours. The results indicate that the process of curing of epoxy resin decelerates with time and accelerates with increasing temperature. Furthermore, the energy of the barrier is calculated.
How Can IoT Improve the Life-quality of Diabetes Patients?
Authors: Longva Anne Marit , Haddara Moutaz
Published: September 2019

The Internet of things (IoT) is revolutionizing several industries with unprecedented possibilities and opportunities. One of the industries that has a critical direct impact on humans, is the healthcare industry. While IoT technologies can be seen in medical supply chains within the healthcare sector, however, IoT technologies are still not widely adopted in other areas and services within the healthcare sector. The number of patients living with diabetes has increased drastically over the past four decades and is expected to increase even more over the next ones. The disease currently has no cure, and if the patients are not monitored and get the right treatment at the right time, it might end a patient’s life. The IoT is said to be a game-changer for the healthcare industry and the aim of this paper is to review and investigate how IoT technologies and solutions can improve the quality of life and aid the people living with the chronic disease. Our findings suggest that IoT can aid in patient monitoring, including the continuous glucose monitoring, and also can assist in providing a healthier lifestyle for patients through activity and diet tracking. In addition, we have identified key challenges for IoT adoptions and implementations in healthcare within the scope of this research.
Multivariate Data Retrieval Modified by Random Noise using Lattice Autoassociative Memories with Eroded or Dilated Input Residuals
Authors: Urcid Gonzalo , Morales-Salgado Rocío , Nieves-VázquezsJosé-Angel
Published: September 2019

Lattice associative memories were proposed as an alternative approach to work with a set of associated vector pairs for which the storage and retrieval stages are based in the theory of algebraic lattices. Several techniques have been established to deal with the problem of binary or real valued vector recall from corrupted inputs. This paper presents a thresholding technique coupled with statistical correlation pattern index search to enhance the recall performance of lattice auto-associative memories for multivariate data inputs degraded by random noise. By thresholding a given noisy input, a lower bound is generated to produce an eroded noisy version used to boost the min-lattice auto-associative memory inherent retrieval capability. Similarly, an upper bound is generated to obtain a dilated noisy version used to enhance the max-lattice auto-associave memory response. A self contained theoretical foundation is provided including a visual example of a multivariate data set composed of grayscale images that show the increased retrieval capability of this type of associative memories.
Black economic empowerment policy in Durban, eThekwini, South Africa: economic justice, economic fraud and ‘leaving money on the table’
Authors: Bracking Sarah
Published: September 2019

Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) policy in South Africa is intended to mitigate the economic disadvantage of apartheid and contribute to inclusive growth and development. This article examines perspectives on BEE from economic actors and accreditation agencies in eThekwini between 2012 and 2016. The article finds that BEE policy has contributed to building a political economy of connectivity and concession embedded in localised categorical framings of race, class and gender, where some economic fraud and corruption has taken place. However, BEE has also contributed to growing a black capitalist class which eschews political concession and identifies with market-based economic transformation.

Published: September 2019

Introduction:

The Surgical Care Improvement Programme (SCIP) was initiated in 2002 with the vision of reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with postoperative surgical site infection by addresses to the antibiotics use and early discontinuation, catheter removal within 48 hours postoperatively, use of clipper for hair removal, controlled blood sugars on preop, first and second postop days and maintenance of normothermia.

Objective:

To assess the relationship between SCIP-infection prevention care measures and postoperative infection rates in patients undergoing total knee replacement (TKR) or total hip replacement (THR).

Materials and Methods:

A retrospective chart review was conducted including all patients who underwent primary total knee arthroplasty or total hip arthroplasty between January 2, 2013 and December 31, 2014 at our institute. Patients’ demographics and SCIP parameters were recorded in a preformed structured proforma. Outcome variable was recorded as presence of surgical site wound infection and compared.

Results:

A total of 307 patients (242 knee replacements and 65 hip replacements) were included in the study. Wound infection was observed in 2/242 patients (1%) in the TKR group while 3/65 (5%) showed infection in the THR group. Clipper was used after induction for operative site hair removal in 206 TKR patients and in 39 THR patients, none of them had wound infection which was significant (P=0.002 and 0.046).

Conclusions:

SCIP parameters ensure reduced surgical site infection rates, lesser duration of hospital stay, decreased incidence of deep venous thrombosis and reduced postop morbidity and mortality.
Computational neural mechanisms of goal-directed planning and problem solving
Authors: Zarr Noah , Brown Joshua W.
Published: September 2019

The question of how animals and humans can solve arbitrary problems and achieve arbitrary goals remains open. Model-based and model-free reinforcement learning methods have addressed these problems, but they generally lack the ability to flexibly reassign reward value to various states as the reward structure of the environment changes. Research on cognitive control has generally focused on inhibition, rule-guided behavior, and performance monitoring, with relatively less focus on goal representations. From the engineering literature, control theory suggests a solution in that an animal can be seen as trying to minimize the difference between the actual and desired states of the world, and the Dijkstra algorithm further suggests a conceptual framework for moving a system toward a goal state. He we present a purely localist neural network model that can autonomously learn the structure of an environment and then achieve any arbitrary goal state in a changing environment without re-learning reward values. The model clarifies a number of issues inherent in biological constraints on such a system, including the essential role of oscillations in learning and performance. We demonstrate that the model can efficiently learn to solve arbitrary problems, including for example the Tower of Hanoi problem.

Published: September 2019

The small yellow croaker (Larimichthys polyactis) is an important marine economic fish that is widely distributed in the East Sea, Yellow Sea and Bohai of China. However, the wild populations of small yellow croaker are severely depleted, and there is currently a developing large-scale artificial propagation of this fish for aquaculture. However, the current variety of small yellow croaker that is cultivated is not capable to coping with large fluctuations in temperature. Therefore, it is important to understand the molecular mechanisms that are activated in response to temperature stress in the small yellow croaker. Here, we conducted transcriptomic analysis of the liver of small yellow croaker under heat and cold stress. A total of 270,844,888, 265,727,006 and 259,666,218 clean reads were generated from heat temperature group, low temperature group and control group, respectively, and comparing expression of genes in these transcriptomes,10,878 unigenes that were differential expressed were identified. Sixteen of the differentially expressed unigenes were validated by qRT-PCR. Pathway enrichment analysis identified that the ER pathway, immune signaling pathway and metabolic response pathway were affected by temperature stress. The results of this study provide a comprehensive overview of temperature stress-induced transcriptional patterns in liver tissues of the small yellow croaker. In addition, these results can guide future molecular studies of heat and cold stress response in this species for improving the stock used for aquaculture.

Objectives

Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplant (haplo‐SCT) has been associated with higher rates of graft rejection, and a higher dose of CD34+ cell dose is frequently requested. We aim to explore the impact of CD34+ cell dose in peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) grafts using reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) in haplo‐SCT.

Methods

Sixty‐eight consecutive haplo‐SCT in adult patients were included. Graft‐vs‐host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis consisted on ATG, PTCy, and CsA. The cohort was divided in two groups using CD34+ dose of ≥ 9 × 106 CD34+/Kg as cutoff point. Median follow‐up was 8.9 months.

Results

Median cell dose infused was 9.32 × 106 CD34+/Kg. Forty (58.8%) recipients received grafts with CD34+ cells ≥9 × 106/kg. The infusion ≥ 9 × 106 CD34+/Kg cell dose had a negative impact in overall survival (P = .03) after adjusting for age at transplant. The cumulative incidence of acute GVHD and graft failure were not significantly influenced per CD34+ cell dose. Only four recipients had grade III aGVHD, and all of them received grafts with a CD34+ cell dose ≥ 9 × 106.

Conclusion

In RIC haplo‐SCT, recipients may not benefit from PBSC grafts with a CD34+/kg cell dose higher than 9 × 106 cells/kg, as it can have an adverse impact in post‐transplant outcome.

The advanced molybdenum-based rare process experiment (AMoRE) aims to search for neutrinoless double beta decay ($$0\nu \beta \beta $$0νββ) of $$^{100}$$100Mo with $$\sim 100\,\hbox {kg}$$∼100kg of $$^{100}$$100Mo-enriched molybdenum embedded in cryogenic detectors with a dual heat and light readout. At the current, pilot stage of the AMoRE project we employ six calcium molybdate crystals with a total mass of 1.9 kg, produced from $$^{48}$$48Ca-depleted calcium and $$^{100}$$100Mo-enriched molybdenum ($$^{48{{\text {depl}}}}\hbox {Ca}^{100}\hbox {MoO}_{4}$$48deplCa100MoO4). The simultaneous detection of heat (phonon) and scintillation (photon) signals is realized with high resolution metallic magnetic calorimeter sensors that operate at milli-Kelvin temperatures. This stage of the project is carried out in the Yangyang underground laboratory at a depth of 700 m. We report first results from the AMoRE-Pilot $$0\nu \beta \beta $$0νββ search with a 111 kg day live exposure of $$^{48{{\text {depl}}}}\hbox {Ca}^{100}\hbox {MoO}_{4}$$48deplCa100MoO4 crystals. No evidence for $$0\nu \beta \beta $$0νββ decay of $$^{100}$$100Mo is found, and a upper limit is set for the half-life of $$0\nu \beta \beta $$0νββ of $$^{100}$$100Mo of $$T^{0\nu }_{1/2} > 9.5\times 10^{22}~\hbox {years}$$T1/20ν>9.5×1022years at 90% C.L. This limit corresponds to an effective Majorana neutrino mass limit in the range $$\langle m_{\beta \beta }\rangle \le (1.2-2.1)\,\hbox {eV}$$⟨mββ⟩≤(1.2-2.1)eV.
An event generator for same-sign W-boson scattering at the LHC including electroweak corrections
Authors: Chiesa Mauro , Denner Ansgar , Lang Jean-Nicolas , Pellen Mathieu
Published: September 2019

In this article we present an event generator based on the Monte Carlo program Powheg in combination with the matrix-element generator Recola. We apply it to compute NLO electroweak corrections to same-sign W-boson scattering, which have been shown to be large at the LHC. The event generator allows for the generation of unweighted events including the effect of the NLO electroweak corrections matched to a QED parton shower and interfaced to a QCD parton shower. In view of the expected experimental precision of future measurements, the use of such a tool will be indispensable.
Finite temperature Landau gauge lattice quark propagator
Authors: Oliveira Orlando , Silva Paulo J.
Published: September 2019

The quark propagator at finite temperature is investigated using quenched gauge configurations. The propagator form factors are investigated for temperatures above and below the gluon deconfinement temperature $$T_c$$Tc and for the various Matsubara frequencies. Significant differences between the functional behaviour below and above $$T_c$$Tc are observed both for the quark wave function and the running quark mass. The results for the running quark mass indicate a link between gluon dynamics, the mechanism for chiral symmetry breaking and the deconfinement mechanism. For temperatures above $$T_c$$Tc and for low momenta, our results support also a description of quarks as free quasiparticles.
Diffusion of charm quarks in jets in high-energy heavy-ion collisions
Authors: Wang Sa , Dai Wei , Zhang Ben-Wei , Wang Enke
Published: September 2019

The radial distribution of $$D^0$$D0 mesons in jets probes the diffusion of charm quark relative to the jet axis and provides a new perspective to study the interaction mechanisms between heavy quarks and the medium in the nucleus-nucleus collisions. The in-medium parton propagations are described by a Monte Carlo transport model which uses the next-to-leading order (NLO) plus parton shower (PS) event generator SHERPA as input and includes elastic (collisional) and inelastic (radiative) interaction for heavy quarks as well as light partons. At low $$D^0$$D0 meson $$p_T$$pT, the radial distribution significantly shifts to larger radius indicating a strong diffusion effect which is consistent with the recent experimental data. We demonstrate that the angular deviation of charm quarks declines with $$p_T$$pT and is very sensitive to the collisional more than radiative interaction at $$p_T<5$$pT<5 GeV. As predictions, we present the $$D^0$$D0 meson radial distribution in jets in p + p and $$0{-}10\%$$0-10% Au + Au collisions at $$\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$$sNN=200 GeV at the RHIC, and also estimate the nuclear modification factor of charm jet in central Au + Au collisions at 200 GeV at the RHIC and central Pb + Pb collisions at 5.02 TeV at the LHC.
Effect of non-eikonal corrections on azimuthal asymmetries in the color glass condensate
Authors: Agostini Pedro , Altinoluk Tolga , Armesto Néstor
Published: September 2019

We analyse the azimuthal structure of two gluon correlations in the color glass condensate including those effects that result from relaxing the shockwave approximation for the target. Working in the Glasma graph approach suitable for collisions between dilute systems, we compute numerically the azimuthal distributions and show that both even and odd harmonics appear. We study their dependence on model parameters, energy of the collision, pseudorapidity and transverse momentum of the produced particles, and length of the target. While the contribution from non-eikonal corrections vanishes with increasing collision energy and becomes negligible at the energies of the Large Hadron Collider, it is found to be sizeable up to top energies at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider.

The Pygopleurus Motschulsky (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea: Glaphyridae) of mainland Greece: taxonomy, faunistics and ecological notes
Authors: BOLLINO MAURIZIO , ULIANA MARCO , SABATINELLI GUIDO
Published: September 2019

The present contribution revises the taxonomy of the Pygopleurus Motschulsky, 1860 species from the mainland Greece, introducing substantial changes to the last taxonomic work by Baraud (1989). Pygopleurus humeralis (Brullé, 1832) is recognized as a junior synonym of P. apicalis (Brullé, 1832). Specimens up to date identified as P. humeralis actually belong to five different taxa, of which two are new: P. brullei brullei Bollino, Uliana & Sabatinelli, new species and P. brullei taygetanus Bollino, Uliana & Sabatinelli, new subspecies, two are resurrected from synonymy: P. viridisuturatus (Reitter, 1903) from Greece, and P. isikdagensis (Petrovitz, 1963) from Turkey, and one species, P. bulgaricus (Nedelkov, 1905) is resurrected. Pygopleurus pseudopsilotrichius (Petrovitz, 1958) is resurrected from unwarranted synonymy with P. anemoninus (Brullé, 1832). Pygopleurus chrysonotus (Brullé, 1832) is removed from the synonymy with P. anemoninus and treated as senior synonym of Pygopleurus diffusus (Petrovitz, 1958). Pygopleurus anemoninus, P. chrysonotus and P. hirsutus (Brullé, 1832) are endemic to Greece, and absent from the fauna of Turkey. Previous records of these species from Turkey result from misidentifications. Neotypes of Pygopleurus chrysonotus and P. bulgaricus are designated. Neotype of Amphicoma apicalis designated by Baraud (1989) and lectotype of A. humeralis selected by Baraud (1989) in 1988 are considered invalid and set aside. For all species, ecological notes are presented and geographical distributions are mapped.

Published: September 2019

Amerila is one of the most studied Afrotropical genera of Arctiinae. However, based on a regionally constrained sample of specimens from Mount Cameroon, we show how superficial our knowledge on these tiger moths is. Among six collected Amerila species, A. femina’s female is described here for the first time, and A. mulleri and A. roseomarginata had never been recorded before in the country. Moreover, novel biological data are presented, including individual species’ elevational ranges. Finally, female reproductive organs of the genus are illustrated here for the first time. The value of such regional studies is highlighted, with some remarks on necessary requirements of such small-scaled field sampling.

Die Struktur des Äthylalkohols bei tiefen Temperaturen
Authors: Jagodzinski Heinz
Published: September 2019

Es wird ein zur quantitativen Auswertung der Röntgenaufnahmen von Flüssigkeiten mit Atomen verschiedenen Streuvermögens geeignetes Verfahren, das sich eng an die bisherigen anschließt, behandelt. Die experimentell ermittelten Verteilungsfunktionen von Äthylalkohol bei - 75 ° von Harvey und bei -150 ° (unterkühlt) von Prietzschk werden annähernd quantitativ gedeutet. Danach sind die ausgeprägten Maxima und Minima der Verteilungsfunktion oberhalb 3 A bei -150 ° auf die teilweise Aufhebung der freien Drehbarkeit der assoziierten Moleküle durch die Kettenlänge zurückzuführen. Weiterhin besteht bei dieser Temperatur eine erhebliche Neigung zur parallelen Lagerung mindestens sämtlicher benachbarter Alkoholmoleküle. Bei -75° ist das Bild der Assoziation ein dynamisches, die Lebensdauer einer Assoziation anscheinend gering, so daß die Bildung längerer Ketten unwahrscheinlich wird. Das Beugungsbild bei -75° wird durch zwei frei zueinander drehbare assoziierte Moleküle charakterisiert, die erhebliche Verbreiterung des Maximums bei 2,75 Ä wird auf den Ausrichtvorgang zweier zur Assoziation gelangenden Moleküle zurückgeführt.
Über die Wärmeleitung in der Hochstrombogensäule
Authors: Höcker Karl-Heinz , Schulz Paul
Published: September 2019

Bei den hohen Temperaturen in der Hochstrombogensäule wird die zugeführte elektrische Energie im wesentlichen durch ambipolare Diffusion der Ionen und Elektronen sowie durch Wärmeleitung der leichten Elektronen und in geringerem Maße durch Wärme-leitung der Atome (klassische Wärmeleitung) abgeführt. Alle drei Anteile werden durch Einführung des totalen Wärmeleitungskoeffizienten x berücksichtigt, der sich aus dem atomaren Wärmeleitungskoeffizienten xa, dem Elektronenwärmeleitungskoeffizienten xe und dem Wärmeleitungskoeffizienten xj, der durch die Ionisation der Atome im Inneren der Säule und der Rekombination der Ionen in den Randgebieten zustande kommt, zusam-mensetzt. Der Elektronenwärmeleitungskoeffizient wird überwiegend durch die Wechsel-wirkung der Elektronen mit den Ionen des Plasmas bestimmt. Aus den Daten des Lichtbogens werden die Ionenquerschnitte hergeleitet und mit Versuchen verschiedener Autoren zu ihrer Berechnung verglichen. Zu guter Übereinstimmung mit dem experimentellen Befund von Finkelnburg gelangt man mit Ionenquerschnitten, wie sie die Rechnung von Druyvesteyn ergibt. Die sonstigen Rechnungen ergeben durch-weg zu große Ionenquerschnitte. - Im Hochstrombogen wirkt die Elektronenwärmeleitung zu etwa 30% an der radialen Wärmeabfuhr mit. Seitherige Schwierigkeiten in der Theorie der Hochstrombogensäule verschwinden.

The self-diffusion coefficients of the constituent cations in the systems (Ag-Na)NO3 and (Ag-K)NO3 have been investigated by the "diffusion-into-the capillary" method at three concentrations (xAgNO3 = 0.25; 0.50; 0.75) and at temperatures ranging from 250 to 400°. A temperature dependence given by the Arrhenius equation and an almost linear variation with composition were observed. The correlation existing between the ionic size of diffusing cations and the diffusion coefficients in these melts is discussed.

Published: September 2019

In an atomic beam apparatus the photoionisation spectrum of Ba and Sr is measured using a crossed beam method. In order to determine the photoionisation cross-section one must measure the following three essential parameters: atomic number density, UV photon flux and the number of produced ions. The instrumental band width used is not sufficient to resolve all the autoionisation lines, but it is possible to compare the measured spectrum with absorption spectra of Hudson, Carter and Young using a convolution method. There is a good relative consistency with these measurements. A deviation of absolute values in the case of Ba can be explained by newer determinations on vapor pressure, which modify the results of Hudson.

Published: September 2019

The dynamics of the hydration of a white cement with negligible iron content and of Portland cement with a considerable amount of iron has been studied by proton magnetic resonance. The presence of iron in Portland cement results in the protons close to the free electron spins of iron being out of resonance and their signal being suppressed. The evolution in time of the percentage of protons out of resonance in a Portland cement and the growth of the solid component have been determined as a function of hydration time.

Non-linear damped oscillators can be resonantly driven by an aperiodic force. An algorithm is described which shows how such a driving mechanism can be calculated. This new method paves the way for resonance spectroscopy in non-linear systems.
Relationship between RNASE1, ANG and RNASE6 gene polymorphism and the values of blood indices in suckling piglets
Authors: Szymańska Hanna , Życzko Krystyna , Zabolewicz Tadeusz
Published: September 2019

The relationship between PcR-restriction fragment length polymorphism in RNASE1 (296 A/G), ANG (149 G/T) and RNASE6 (389 C/T) genes and the values of haematological and biochemical blood indices was analysed in crossbred suckling piglets (n = 473), aged 21 ± 3 days (younger, n = 274) and 35 ± 3 days (older, n = 199), descending from Polish Large White × Polish Landrace sows and Duroc × Pietrain boars. The observed distribution of all genotypes was consistent with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Anaemia was more common in younger piglets with RNASE1 GA genotype but in the blood of older GA piglets a higher count and percentage of granulocytes were noted. This could be related to the destruction of erythrocytes in younger piglets and enhanced host defence in older ones. ANG gene polymorphism was associated with the severity of iron deficiency in younger piglets. This is supposed to be linked with the different ability to protect immune cells against suppression and degradation during iron deficiency. in older piglets, this mutation differentiated the reactivity of the immune system. Varying levels of iron status and red blood cell indices in RNASE6 genotypes presumably resulted from the coupling of genes involved in iron metabolism and expressed in an age-dependent manner.
Alteration of avian hepatic cytochrome P450 gene expression and activity by certain feed additives
Authors: Palócz Orsolya , Szita Géza , Csikó György
Published: September 2019

We investigated the effect of four feed additives, namely β-glucan, a drinking water acidifier (DWA), a sanguinarine-containing product (SN) and fulvic acid, on hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) mRNA expression and CYP enzyme activity in chickens. The test substances were given to the chickens in the recommended dose or in tenfold dose. The administration of 5 mg/kg body weight (bw) β-glucan and 0.1 ml/kg bw DWA for five days decreased the relative gene expression of CYP1A4 and CYP2C23a. The dosing of 50 mg/kg bw β-glucan, 5 and 50 mg/kg bw SN, 1 ml/kg bw DWA and 250 mg/kg bw fulvic acid doubled the hepatic CYP1A4 activity. The activity of CYP2C and CYP3A remained unchanged. Avoidance of CYP1A-mediated feed-drug interactions requires accurate dosing of β-glucan, DWA and fulvic acid. According to our results, no treatment resulted in excessive or less CYP2C and CYP3A protein formation, which reduces the risk of potential feed additive-drug interactions in chickens. However, the administration of feed additive SN containing a plant alkaloid should be avoided concomitantly with CYP1A-metabolised medicines.

A vida póstuma de Aby Warburg: por que seu pensamento seduz os pesquisadores contemporâneos da imagem?
Authors: Lissovsky Mauricio
Published: September 2019

A fama de Aby Warburg (1866-1929) sempre superou o conhecimento de sua obra. Mas, nas últimas duas décadas, alguns dos mais importantes pensadores da estética - como Georges Didi-Huberman e Giorgio Agamben - encontram neste obscuro historiador da arte alemão um precursor de suas próprias investigações. Partindo do debate sobre o legado de Warburg nas obras de Ernst Gombrich e Erwin Panofsky, este ensaio procura historiar a trajetória deste resgate e repertoriar os conceitos e procedimentos warburgianos que mais mobilizam os teóricos contemporâneos. Sugere-se, por fim, que é devido à crescente influência de Walter Benjamin e às inquietações suscitadas pelo estatuto da imagem na contemporaneidade que os estudos de Warburg voltam a servir de referência para historiadores e estudiosos da imagem.

Authors: Rahma Anita , Kristina Diah , Marmanto Sri
Published: September 2019

The aim of this study is to identify and describe the cultural elements translated using adaptation technique and linguistic elements translated using variation technique in Batman movie subtitled into Mataraman Javanese. Then explain the translator’s reason of using the adaptation and variation technique, and describe the effect of both techniques towards the translation quality. This is a prescriptive qualitative study and categorized as an embedded research. The sources of data are 1) script of Batman movie and its translation in Mataraman Javanese, 2) the raters as informant who evaluate the translation in terms of accuracy and acceptability, and 3) the target audiences to rate the comprehension.
Based on the research result, the researcher collected 110 data which consist of 48 adaptation data and 62 variation data. The adaptation data in this study are ecology, material culture, social culture, procedure/ activity/ artistic term, economic system and language. Meanwhile, the variation data contain the personal pronouns for first person, second person, and third person translated into speech level of ngoko (showing low politeness), madya (showing middle politeness) and krama (showing high politeness). The use of adaptation and variation techniques by the translator is in line with the purpose of Mataraman Javanese program held by local TV station to accommodate the local wisdom. For that reason, the translation ideology of this subtitle is domestication by employing those translation techniques which are closes to the target language culture. Generally, the use of adaptation and variation techniques in this study is quite accurate, acceptable in the target culture and comprehensible to the target audience.
