Preliminary results are given of the analysis of the continuous recordings of the detected multiplicity distribution obtained at the Uppsala IGY monitor and at the Rome supermonitor in the first months of 1967. The relative frequencies and the attenuation coefficients of the individual multiplicities as measured at both monitors are compared. The time changes of the multiplicity distribution on the occasion of substantial primary spectral variations are studied.

Time Changes

The time variation of the attenuation coefficients is synoptically studied by regression analysis on reduced and filtered daily data of 21 IGY neutron monitors from 1957 to 1965 and 11 IQSY supermonitors from 1964 to 1966. For the sea-level IGY monitors at high latitude a typical peak-to-peak amplitude of 4% is found for the solar-cycle change, in agreement with an independent estimate of the effect. The supermonitor results show, as expected, no relevant time variation in the period studied and smaller differences than the IGY monitors among stations of similar geophysical conditions.Attenuation coefficients obtained by mobile monitor measurements in 1967 are also presented.

Context Specific

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore how entrepreneurship traditions evolve in diaspora. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative multiple case study examining the role of diaspora embeddedness, extended family, ethno-religious-, cultural- and social ties and relevant structures shaping diaspora entrepreneurship. Findings The authors found that social ties and diaspora embeddedness create dynamism fostering entrepreneurial identity as a part of the Bukharian culture, and as a preferred career option in the context of Bukharian Jews in diaspora. Diasporic family businesses are products of culture and tradition that migrate to new locations with families and communities, not as disconnected business entities. Research limitations/implications The ways in which families nurture a highly entrepreneurial culture that transfers across generations and contexts are context-specific and not per se generalizable to other diasporas. Practical implications Diasporans often continue their traditions and become again entrepreneurs after their settlement, or they may generate hybrid, circular solutions that allow them to employ their competences in the new contexts or connecting various contexts. This calls for transnational entrepreneurship-policymaking. Social implications Time changes diasporas. A long-term commitment to the business environment evolves and reduces the mobility of the individual diasporan; typically the children of these migrants become more integrated and develop divergent career paths. Hence, their plans are not necessarily including family entrepreneurship creating a challenge for continuation of the original culture of entrepreneurship. Originality/value Despite a notable tradition in Jewish studies, there is limited research on Jewish entrepreneurial diaspora and its contemporary entrepreneurial identity and tradition. Furthermore, the population of Bukharian Jews is an unknown and under-explored highly entrepreneurial group that may offer instrumental views to larger diasporic audiences being concerned about maintaining notions of ethnic heritage and identity.

The first and preliminary results of the photometry of Large Yield Radiometer (LYRA) and Sun Watcher using Active Pixel system detector and Image Processing (SWAP) onboard PROBA2 are presented in this paper. To study the day-to-day variations of LYRA irradiance, we have compared the LYRA irradiance values (observed Sun as a star) measured in Aluminum filter channel (171 Å–500 Å) with spatially resolved full-disk integrated intensity values measured with SWAP (174 Å) and Ca II K 1 Å index values (ground-based observations from NSO/Sac Peak) for the period from 01 April 2010 to 15 Mar 2011. We found that there is a good correlation between these parameters. This indicates that the spatial resolution of SWAP complements the high temporal resolution of LYRA. Hence SWAP can be considered as an additional radiometric channel. Also the K emission index is the integrated intensity (or flux) over a 1 Å band centered on the K line and is proportional to the total emission from the chromosphere; this comparison clearly explains that the LYRA irradiance variations are due to the various magnetic features, which are contributing significantly. In addition to this we have made an attempt to segregate coronal features from full-disk SWAP images. This will help to understand and determine the actual contribution of the individual coronal feature to LYRA irradiance variations.

A knowledge of growth rates is a pre-requisite in estimating the effect of fishing upon the available stocks. In Crustacea, where there is no known means of establishing accurately the age of the individual, the importance of measuring the growth rate is increased whilst its determination is made more difficult. In Homarus vulgaris some experiments were undertaken by Dannevig (1936), and Wilder (1953) gives considerable data for the American lobster. Results suggest that the growth increment is not uniform in all latitudes. Experiments to augment the limited data available for H. vulgaris and to establish the increase in size at moulting in local lobster stocks were therefore undertaken by the Marine Laboratory of the Scottish Home Department at Aberdeen. A statement of some preliminary results was given in Report on the Fisheries of Scotland (Lucas, 1957, p. 58).

1. An experiment has been conducted with dairy cows to find the effect on milk production of feeding rations with a high dry-matter content—typical war-time rations.2. It was found that where a ration high in dry matter is fed, the cow tends to refuse food, and a statistically significant fall in milk production results. The correlation between the refusal of food, calculated in terms of starch equivalent, and the fall in milk production was 0·959.3. The factors causing this inability of the cow to consume sufficient food to meet her total nutrient requirements have been considered. It has been concluded that dry-matter consumption is not an adequate method of expressing the amount of food a cow will consume, and that the major factor influencing food consumption is the palatability of the individual foods making up the ration.My thanks are due to Dr S. J. Rowland for chemical analysis of the individual foods used in the experiments.

The social situation of personality development is the starting point for all dynamic changes. The analysis of the literature of authors who worked before, and continue working on the subject, has been carried out. The range of questions raised by them that have points of intersection with this study was outlined. The article analyzes the preliminary results of the formative experiment, which is taking place over the course of two years at Art-Zebra creative studio of the Moscow Zoo Training Center. Changes in the creative works of twenty children from four to ten years old reflected in the individual sheets, giving an idea of how the means of expression of images of animals and birds created by children grew up. The article contains three individual characteristics-one of the most vivid examples of the unique way of forming creative features in each child in the social environment of the sculpture classes. Particular attention is paid to the experience that runs like a red thread through all stages of children's creative activity. Preliminary results showed that initially the children owned no more than two means of expression. During the experiment, most children mastered four to five means of expression, adding two more in the process of growth. It is argued that the mastery of creative strategies as means for the transformation of the psyche is the key to unlocking the creative potential of each child.
