It gives you the sound and makes you dream. Once you get used to this media you start dreaming. If you used to listen radio more, you get in dependence with it. So this day dreaming change to lifeless dreaming. This article gives an evaluation of how radio audience can shape audience future dreams with dependence theory. The paper starts with a conceptual explanation of dependence theory and goes on with a survey done in Turkey to 101 radio listeners. The survey investigates on how people like listening the radio and what makes them enjoy radio. The survey assumes that people listening to radio and getting depended on it start changing the behaviors and habits of listeners. This behavior change effects listeners future dreams and the audience take radio as a model. The paper shows by using the dependence theory that radio listeners take the radio they love as model and use it to build their future business dreams.展开更多

A study of the 15,500 letters contained in the Spanish Communist Party's [PCE] Historical Archive in Madrid confirms this broadcaster's major role in the construction of the mythical symbolic image of the anti-Franco movement. Beyond their function as propaganda instruments of the PCE, La Pirenaica's letters reveal the radio station's role as a vehicle for the expression of public solidarity and ideological and cultural resistance. La Pirenaica was the voice of the defeated after the Spanish Civil War, and was their confidante and advisor. La Pirenaica's letters are the chronicle of the horror that anti-Franco society suffered and endured in Spain.展开更多

文摘Heating mechanism in the solar atmosphere(from chromosphere to corona)is one of the top-challenges in modern astronomy.The classic mechanisms can be divided into two categories:wave heating(W)and magnetic reconnection heating(X).Both of them still face some problems currently difficult to overcome.Recently,we proposed a new mechanism,called magnetic-gradient pumping heating(MGP,or P)which seems to overcome those difficulties,but still lacks sufficient observational evidence.Which one really explained the physics of hot corona exactly?How can observations be used to identify and verify the heating mechanism?Since different heating mechanisms will generate non-thermal particles from different accelerations and experience different propagations,they will have different responses in the broadband spectral radio observations.Among them,the non-thermal electrons from W mechanisms are closely related to shock-wave acceleration,and their radio response should be a group of spike bursts with random distribution of drifting rates;the non-thermal electrons from X mechanisms are accelerated by reconnecting electric field with bidirectional flow,and their radio response should be type III pairs or spike pairs;P mechanism will produce energetic particle upflows,and their radio response should be unidirectional fiber bursts with moderate negative drifting rates.Therefore,the heating mechanism can be identified and verified from the broadband dynamic spectral radio observations.Additionally,using high-resolution radioheliographs and spectral-imaging observations,the heating mechanisms in different regions can be identified and verified separately,thereby demonstrating the physical essence of the hot corona.

文摘The 21 cm radiation of neutral hydrogen provides crucial information for studying the early universe and its evolution.To advance this research,countries have made significant investments in constructing large lowfrequency radio telescope arrays,such as the Low Frequency Array and the Square Kilometre Array Phase 1 Low Frequency.These instruments are pivotal for radio astronomy research.However,challenges such as ionospheric plasma interference,ambient radio noise,and instrument-related effects have become increasingly prominent,posing major obstacles in cosmology research.To address these issues,this paper proposes an efficient signal processing method that combines wavelet transform and mathematical morphology.The method involves the following steps:Background Subtraction:Background interference in radio observation signals is eliminated.Wavelet Transform:The signal,after removing background noise,undergoes a two-dimensional discrete wavelet transform.Threshold processing is then applied to the wavelet coefficients to effectively remove interference components.Wavelet Inversion:The processed signal is reconstructed using wavelet inversion.Mathematical Morphology:The reconstructed signal is further optimized using mathematical morphology to refine the results.Experimental verification was conducted using solar observation data from the Xinjiang Observatory and the Yunnan Observatory.The results demonstrate that this method successfully removes interference signals while preserving useful signals,thus improving the accuracy of radio astronomy observations and reducing the impact of radio frequency interference.

文摘By doping with Mg atoms,the bandgap of Mg-doped NiO thin films can be adjusted larger.By using NiO and MgO as sputtering targets,Mg-doped NiO thin films were deposited using radio-frequency magnetron co-sputtering method in pure argon and pure oxygen gas,respectively.The crystal structure,morphological characteristics,composition and optical properties of the obtained films were compared by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscope(SEM),energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS)and ultraviolet(UV)-visible spectrophotometer.The properties of the thin films deposited in different sputtering gases are quite different.For the films deposited in pure argon gas,it is a polycrystalline thin film with(200)preferred orientation,while the film deposited in pure oxygen has no preferred orientation.The grain size,molar ratio of Mg to Ni atoms and optical bandgap are larger for the films deposited in pure argon gas than those deposited in oxygen gas.

文摘Solar radio burst(SRB)is one of the main natural interference sources of Global Positioning System(GPS)signals and can reduce the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR),directly affecting the tracking performance of GPS receivers.In this paper,a tracking algorithm based on the adaptive Kalman filter(AKF)with carrier-to-noise ratio estimation is proposed and compared with the conventional second-order phase-locked loop tracking algo-rithms and the improved Sage-Husa adaptive Kalman filter(SHAKF)algorithm.It is discovered that when the SRBs occur,the improved SHAKF and the AKF with carrier-to-noise ratio estimation enable stable tracking to loop signals.The conven-tional second-order phase-locked loop tracking algorithms fail to track the receiver signal.The standard deviation of the carrier phase error of the AKF with carrier-to-noise ratio estimation out-performs 50.51%of the improved SHAKF algorithm,showing less fluctuation and better stability.The proposed algorithm is proven to show more excellent adaptability in the severe envi-ronment caused by the SRB occurrence and has better tracking performance.

文摘Radio is all about dreams. This old and tired medium now fights with new media as it is with its old enemy television. Radio has a big impact on dreams. It gives you the sound and makes you dream. Once you get used to this media you start dreaming. If you used to listen radio more, you get in dependence with it. So this day dreaming change to lifeless dreaming. This article gives an evaluation of how radio audience can shape audience future dreams with dependence theory. The paper starts with a conceptual explanation of dependence theory and goes on with a survey done in Turkey to 101 radio listeners. The survey investigates on how people like listening the radio and what makes them enjoy radio. The survey assumes that people listening to radio and getting depended on it start changing the behaviors and habits of listeners. This behavior change effects listeners future dreams and the audience take radio as a model. The paper shows by using the dependence theory that radio listeners take the radio they love as model and use it to build their future business dreams.
文摘Radio Espana Independiente [REI] [1941-1977], La Pirenaica, was the repository for the public remembrance of the victims of the Franco regime, through letters that its listeners regularly sent to the broadcaster's headquarters in Bucharest. A study of the 15,500 letters contained in the Spanish Communist Party's [PCE] Historical Archive in Madrid confirms this broadcaster's major role in the construction of the mythical symbolic image of the anti-Franco movement. Beyond their function as propaganda instruments of the PCE, La Pirenaica's letters reveal the radio station's role as a vehicle for the expression of public solidarity and ideological and cultural resistance. La Pirenaica was the voice of the defeated after the Spanish Civil War, and was their confidante and advisor. La Pirenaica's letters are the chronicle of the horror that anti-Franco society suffered and endured in Spain.
