  • Korean Journals in the Science Citation Index: What Do They Reveal About the Intellectual Structure of S&T in Korea? Scientometrics (Forthcoming)
    Korean journals in the Science Citation Index: What do they reveal about the intellectual structure of S&T in Korea? Scientometrics (forthcoming) Han Woo PARK YeungNam University, Korea (South) [email protected]; [email protected] http://www.hanpark.net & Loet Leydesdorff Amsterdam School of Communications Research (ASCoR), University of Amsterdam Kloveniersburgwal 48, 1012 CX Amsterdam, The Netherlands; [email protected]; http://www.leydesdorff.net Abstract During the last decade, we have witnessed a sustained growth of South Korea’s research output in terms of the world share of publications in the Science Citation Index database. However, Korea’s citation performance is not yet as competitive as publication performance. In this study, the authors examine the intellectual structure of Korean S&T field based on social network analysis of journal-journal citation data using the ten Korean SCI journals as seed journals. The results reveal that Korean SCI journals function more like publication places, neither research channels nor information sources among national scientists. Thus, these journals may provide Korean scholars with access to international scientific communities by facilitating the respective entry barriers. However, there are no citation relations based on their Korean background. Furthermore, we intend to draw some policy implications which may be helpful to increase Korea’s research potential. Keywords: Korea, science citation index, national journals, social network analysis, science and technology, citation network 1 Introduction During the last decade, we have witnessed a sustained growth of South Korea’s research output in terms of the world share of publications in the Thomson ISI database. According to the Korean Institute of Science & Technology Evaluation and Planning (KISTEP), there were 23,048 publications with at least one Korean address among the authors in the National Science Indicator 2006 of the Thomson ISI (KISTEP, 2006).

  • PCCP Asian Symposia 2012 Abstract
    PCCP Asian Symposia 2012 28 September 2012 Institute of Chemistry of Chinese Academy of Science (ICCAS), Beijing, China 1 October 2012 WPI - MANA, National Institute for Materials Science, Tsukuba, Japan 4 October 2012 Seoul National University, Korea www.rsc.org/pccp Registered Charity Number 207890 PCCP Asian Symposia 2012 Welcome address I would like to extend my warmest welcome to all speakers and attendees at the PCCP Asian Symposia. These three international symposia – in Beijing, Tsukuba and Seoul - are an opportunity to showcase outstanding physical chemistry research, and underline the strong and vital links between PCCP and the research communities PCCP serves both in Asia and beyond. PCCP goes from strength to strength, and is currently enjoying record levels of submissions. Since launch in 1999, PCCP has grown in both size and impact to become the premier journal spanning the broad physical chemistry research fields. A truly international journal, PCCP continues to enjoy very low publication times, offering rigorous yet fair peer review to researchers from all countries. These symposia underline the broad diversity of research in PCCP, and the journal’s strong connections with Asia. PCCP is a Society journal, co-owned by seventeen national Societies and published for the benefit of the scientific community. I am especially delighted to welcome the Korean Chemical Society (KCS) as the newest co-owner of PCCP. My sincerest thanks naturally go to the local organisers, sponsors and co-sponsors, whose dedication, generosity and hard work has enabled the three symposia to come to fruition. Of course, PCCP exists and thrives because of the support of authors, readers, referees, Editors, Board members and the wider physical chemistry research community.

  • Counterclaim Defendant, Case No
    UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF MISSOURI EASTERN DIVISION NESTLÉ PURINA PETCARE COMPANY, Plaintiff/ Counterclaim Defendant, Case No. 4:14-cv-859-RWS v. BLUE BUFFALO COMPANY LTD., Defendant/ Counterclaim Plaintiff. DECLARATION OF VINAYAK P. DRAVID, PH.D. I have been retained by Blue Buffalo Company Ltd. (“Blue Buffalo”) and have been asked to provide a preliminary opinion about the scientific adequacy and reliability of the conclusions set forth in the Expert Report of James V. Makowski dated July 23, 2014 (PUR_000207-52), (“Makowski Report”). In his Report, Dr. Makowski, purports to reach definitive quantitative conclusions about the compositions of various Blue Buffalo products based solely on visual observations of the products using rudimentary optical microscopy. Briefly, Dr. Makowski obtained various product samples directly from Nestlé Purina. Dr. Makowski then examined the processed samples under a low-power light microscope, with very limited capabilities. Dr. Makowski purported to identify ingredients based solely on a subjective, visual comparison of what he observed to “a reference library of known ingredients” – though his Report fails to identify the reference library and validate its utility. Dr. Makowski made no effort to document what features he saw that led to a particular identification (save for four low quality, scale-less photographs, three of which were from a single sample). In other words, he apparently made these identifications based on 7271442v.1 gut feeling. Similarly, Dr. Makowski purported to quantify the amount of ingredients he identified through a “visual estimate,” though his Report and supporting laboratory notebook fail to set forth any methodology for arriving at such numbers.

The alternation of ionic oxide and covalent chalcogenide layers found in these materials often results in interesting electronic properties, and also facilitates the tuning of their properties via chemical substitution at both types of layers. This review highlights some common structure types found for layered oxychalcogenides and their interrelationships. This review pays special attention to the potential of these materials for thermoelectric applications, and provides an overview of the thermoelectric properties of materials of current interest, including BiCuSeO. © 2016 The Chinese Ceramic Society.

The latter material with composition of 0.3Li2MnO3.0.7Li0.97Na0.03Mn0.33Ni0.33Co0.33O2, synthe- sized as 200–300 nm size particles, was compared to its counterpart without Na. The discharge rate capability of the Li-rich NMC was greatly improved at both room temperature and 50◦C with the Na doping. The Na doped material exhibited significantly higher conductivity than its un-doped analog as evidenced by dc electronic conductivity data and impedance of Li cells. Charge/discharge cycling results of Li cells at 50◦C indicated that the voltage decay of Li-rich NMC accompanied by a layer to spinel structural conversion was mitigated with Na doping. XRD analysis revealed that ionic exchange of Na occurs upon contact of the cathode material with the electrolyte and produces a volume expansion of the crystal lattice which triggers a favorable metal (probably Ni) migration to Li depleted regions during oxidation of Li2MnO3 in the first cycle.

The reactions were performed at polar intermetallics. This is illustrated by the unlikely situation 1050 °C over 5 days with prior heating under dynamic vacuum that the elements of group 13 have enough effective core poten- at 350-450 °C for 5-8 h. The reaction was terminated by tial to accumulate a high number of electrons, up to 5 electrons, rapid quenching to room temperature. All sample manipulations without significant mixing with the electronic states of the metal were done within a purified Argon atmosphere glovebox.
