the search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame
this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...
15 صفحه اولTopology of Neutral Hydrogen Within the Small Magellanic Cloud
In this paper, genus statistics have been applied to an HI column density map of the Small Magellanic Cloud in order to study its topology. At the smallest scales studied (26 pc ≤ λ ≤ 75 pc) the genus shift is negative, implying a clump topology. At medium scales (75 pc ≤ λ ≤ 125 pc) the topology shifts to a neutral/slightly positive value, indicating a tendency towards a swiss-cheese/hole topo...
متن کاملThe critical velocity effect as a cause for the H α emission from the Magellanic stream
Observations show significant Hα-emissions in the Galactic halo near the edges of cold gas clouds of the Magellanic Stream. The source for the ionization of the cold gas is still a widely open question. In our paper we discuss the critical velocity effect as a possible explanation for the observed Hα-emission. The critical velocity effect can yield a fast ionization of cold gas if this neutral ...
متن کاملMagellanic Stream in MOND
The dynamics of Magellanic Stream (MS) as a series of clouds extended from the Magellanic Clouds (MCs) to the south Galactic pole is affected by the distribution and the amount of matter in the Milky Way (MW). We calculate the gravitational effect of the Galactic disk on MS in the MOdified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) frame work and compare with the observations of the radial velocity. Here we con...
متن کاملA New Look at the Kinematics of Neutral Hydrogen in the Small Magellanic Cloud
We have used the latest HI observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), obtained with the Australia Telescope Compact Array and the Parkes telescope, to re-examine the kinematics of this dwarf, irregular galaxy. A large velocity gradient is found in the HI velocity field with a significant symmetry in iso-velocity contours, suggestive of a differential rotation. A comparison of HI data wit...
