Within the advance of generative metrical theory that is concerned with the linguistic study of versification, poetry investigation has been undeniably played a significant role in enhancing such progress. The research of linguistic scholars has been mainly focused on the exploration of English poetry with minor concentration on the examination of poetry in other languages, and that clearly implies the need of such research. Thus, the present study aims to examine the meter in Soqotri poetry under the framework of Optimality Theory (OT). It reveals that Soqotri poetry is regulated by poetic meter that constrains the size of the line with a fixed number of syllables with no systematic rhythm or alliteration. The OT analysis offered in this study derives the restrictions on the size of the line with minimality and maximality constraints. It shows the capability of OT in generating the well-formedness of non-rhythmic meter that constrains the phonological constituency in Soqotri poetry.

AbstractElectron-excited X-ray microanalysis performed with scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS) has been used to measure trace elemental constituents of complex multielement materials, where “trace” refers to constituents present at concentrations below 0.01 (mass fraction). High count spectra measured with silicon drift detector EDS were quantified using the standards/matrix correction protocol embedded in the NIST DTSA-II software engine. Robust quantitative analytical results for trace constituents were obtained from concentrations as low as 0.000500 (mass fraction), even in the presence of significant peak interferences from minor (concentration 0.01≤C≤0.1) and major (C>0.1) constituents. Limits of detection as low as 0.000200 were achieved in the absence of peak interference.

ABSTRACTTwo LaBS glasses containing 9.5 wt.% (#1) and 5.0 wt.% PuO2 (#2) were prepared by melting in Pt ampoules at 1500 C and examined by scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The bulk of sample #1, both as-prepared and stored for 3 yrs, was amorphous with homogeneous PuO2 distribution. Sample #2, especially after storage for 2-3 yrs, was partly devitrified primarily in the near-surface area. As followed from X-ray elemental maps, the vitreous phase was enriched with Al and Si whereas larger elongated and smaller dendrite crystals strongly enriched with rare earths (La, Nd, Gd) and Si and minor amounts of Hf may be attributed to britholite. A minor concentration of Pu was also observed in this phase. Moreover, relatively minor amounts of white regular crystals with high PuO2 and lower HfO2 contents were observed in the samples and are probably associated with PuO2 and a PuO2-HfO2 cubic solid solution phase. Nevertheless, even in devitrified areas of the samples, the majority of the Pu remained in the vitreous phase where it was homogeneously distributed.

The analysis of some of the Indian silver coins during British rule were analysed by Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence Technique. Eight elements namely Cr , Fe , Ni , Cu , Zn , As , Ag and Pb were estimated in this study which also seems to indicate the fragmentation as well as the impoverishment of the power for the regimes that had produced the studied coins. While Cu and Ag were present as major elements, other elements were found to be present in minor concentration.

SummaryDespite its market volume of more than four billion EUR p. a. (in Germany) the market for funerals has been disregarded by economists so far. Nevertheless a burial is a high complex product involving not only an undertaker and a cemetery but also several other market actors like stone cutters, crematories and public authorities. Indeed, the providers find themselves in different market forms like a wide oligopoly in the case of funeral homes or a regional monopoly in the case of cemeteries. The abolition of legal conditions, changes in the individual way of life (e. g. a minor concentration on afterlife) and the consequences of the global financial crisis led to several changes and innovations in the market within the last years: E. g. caskets made of paper, an increasing market share of cremation in Germany and discount-funerals can be noticed. For the future we estimate a different role of the mortician. As the central protagonist he might become some kind of ‘manager’ being responsible for the complete funeral and acting as a grief counsellor for the surviving members of the family.

The compositional dependency of the glass forming ability (GFA), magnetic and mechanical properties of the Fe52Co20B20Si4Nb4 bulk metallic glass was investigated by means of the partial substitution of Co either by Al, V or Mo elements. A minor concentration of these elements enabled an increase of the GFA and fully amorphous rods of 4 mm diameter were successfully fabricated for the Fe52Co19B20Si4Nb4Al1, Fe52Co17B20Si4Nb4V3 and Fe52Co17B20Si4Nb4Mo3 alloys. While the addition of Al resulted in an increase of the magnetization saturation, V appeared as the most effective element to enhance the plastic deformation under compression.

Stones removed from different patients of different ages were collected at Regional Institute of Medical Sciences, Imphal, North-eastern India. The stones were analyzed by PIXE with 3MeV protons. Ca was found to be the major constituent element. Light elements present in minor concentration were S , Cl and K . Again, Fe , Ni , Cu , Zn , Sr were observed in low concentration and most of them were detected in trace levels.

The minor concentration ratio is used to supplement the Gini index in income distribution studies. The appeal of the minor concentration ratio stems form the fact that it examines the relative position of the “poor”, an important focus group in the analysis of income distributions. In this note, minor concentration ratios associated with the lower and upper bounds of the Gini index are derived based on the observed points of the Lorenz curve. When the two minor concentration ratios are computed using grouped data for the United States, they turn out to be fairly close.
