Ta’zieh is an intertwined set of traditional Iranian music, Iranian classic poetry and Shabih-khani (speech-visual intertwined narration). The central theme (or subject) of Ta’zieh is representation of siege and massacre of Karbala desert Iranian traditions are used to illustrate and retell events commensurate with [the quality of] events and dialogues in the Ta’zieh scene. In other words, Iran...

McCarthy scholarship has predominantly tended to stress the writer’s revisionism with regard to his rendering of the myth of the American West in Blood Meridian (1985). McCarthy’s novel has beenmainlyhailed as a critique of the violence of manifest destiny. This study aims to delineate aspects of McCarthy’s narrative which resist the predominant view of him as a revisionist. In this re...

We study the $N$-jettiness in electroweak high-energy process for final muon jet pairs, $e^- e^+ \rightarrow \mu^+ \ \mathrm{jet} + \mu^- \mathrm{jet}$. Compared to QCD, main difference is that there exist additional gauge nonsinglet contributions weak interaction, which make factorization more elaborate. Especially arise due Block-Nordsieck violation processes, yields Sudakov logarithms and ra...

Let $G$ be a tamely ramified reductive $p$-adic‎ ‎group‎. ‎We study distinction of a class of irreducible admissible representations‎ ‎of $G$ by the group of fixed points $H$ of an involution‎ ‎of $G$‎. ‎The representations correspond to $G$-conjugacy classes of‎ ‎pairs $(T,phi)$‎, ‎where $T$ is a‎ ‎tamely ramified maximal torus of $G$ and $phi$ is a quasicharacter‎ ‎of $T$ whose restriction t...

In this cross-cultural study, we primarily aim to present research-based evidence to examine the main gender characteristics associated with socialization. Using the symbolic interaction theory and the socialization theory, this cross-cultuural analysis particularly explores the construction and representation of gender identity through educational systems. The fields of this stu...

as narrative discourses and discursive thematic frame- works on social issues in media can provide us with an insight into how different understandings and perspectives serve to construct dif- ferent presentations of social actors, social events as well as social re- lations and conflicts, it seems necessary to take them into more seri- ous considerations. to this end, the present study was an ...

meena alexander, a contemporary indian-american writer and a professor of english literature and women’s studies. the criticism of dr. alexander’s poetry and prose brings in many issues that draws upon poststructuralism and postcolonialism. to mention a few, the negotiation of fragmented identity, the problem of belonging, and the challenge of living in a female body are among her concerns. wha...

We have studied the X-ray dust scattering halos around 17 bright X-ray point sources using Chandra data. All sources were observed with the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer and High-Energy Transmission Grating in Continuous Clocking Mode (CC-mode) or Timed Exposure Mode (TE-mode). We use an iterative method to resolve the halos at small scattering angles from the zeroth order data in CC-mode o...

This report is a self-contained and comprehensive review of the physics of propagating pulses of high-intensity high-energy particle beams in pre-existing or self-generated plasmas. Consideration is given to beams of electrons, protons, muons, and their antiparticles, as well as to neutral-hydrogen, positronium, and electron-positron-plasmoid beams. The first part is a systematic overview of th...
