The concept of control and dictatorship over people, puppetry

Puppetry to cement European cultural identity

Tracing Western European repertoires of puppet and marionette theatres brings to light the international circulation of heroes, techniques, and stories. It demonstrates how this popular type of entertainment contributes to the dissemination of shared cultural references.

Neutrino production in proton-proton collisions supports the rotating lepton model

Direct observation of neutrino production in proton-proton (pp) collisions at CERN LHC lend strong support to the Rotating Lepton Model, Constantinos G. Vayenas(1), Dionysios Tsousis(1,2) and Eftyhia Martino1 ((1)University of Patras, (2)Stanford University) tell us.
Figure 1: Loosely based on the Abernathy-Utterback representation of the innovation pipeline of research software delivery models. Each curve is a model taken from experience and anecdotal evidence. Key: a,) The first stored memory computer is created b,) Grace Hopper and others develop programming languages and numerical methods c,) Teams of mathematicians develop research software, e.g., Dorothy Vaughan see Disney’s film Hidden Figures d,) Open source repository of numerical methods on punch cards collected from academic researchers by Rutherford Appleton Labs as a funding requirement e,) JISC funds research software development in faculty and IT services at universities where funding is along computing expertise, e.g., HPC, visualisation f,) eScience is funding initially to natural and then to social science for centralised teams funding is along research council remit g,) centralised generalised RSE teams are promoted over other models funded by Universities, RSE identified as technicians and more women join the profession h,) slow steady adoption of RSE in national research facilities.
