Since Shower Universality parameterizes both the angular distribution and energy distribution of charged particles within a shower, one can calculate the Cherenkov photon yield (at a fixed point) from the Cherenkov cones of electrons. In this work, we compare both the CWLD (Cherenkov Width Lateral Distribution) and arrival time distributions from Cherenkov universality calculations with those from CORSIKA iact (imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope) simulations. Since universality calculations are much less computationally expensive than shower simulation programs like CORSIKA, reconstruction could be accomplished more efficiently using Cherenkov data. 37th International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC 2021) July 12th – 23rd, 2021 Online – Berlin, Germany ∗Presenter yA complete list of collaborators see Pos(ICRC2021) © Copyright owned by the author(s) under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0). https://pos.sissa.it/ Universality of Cherenkov Light in EAS Isaac Buckland 1.

  • Issues on Ernst Posner Papers in NARA, from the Viewpoint of a Japanese Archivist
    Issues on Ernst Posner Papers in NARA, from the Viewpoint of a Japanese Archivist YAYOI TSUTSUI Abstract: For the 10th Research Forum, I would like to discuss issues regarding the Ernst Posner Papers in the National Archives and Records Administration at College Park, Maryland, which I consulted for one day in 2014. My first question is why the National Archives holds such personal papers. I compared the personal records in the National Archives against the acquisition policy and the holdings of National Archives of Japan. As I learned Posner's brief biography, I felt the power of his archival materials in the reading room. In the first box, there is a list written by him. I noticed the difference between his list and the physical order. We can learn how the archivist arranged his own archival materials. For me, he is the author of Archives in the Ancient World; and I found the records of publication, drafts, and a lot of “cards” representing his source of knowledge. I also found the record of his service to the American Commission for the Protection and Salvage of Artistic and Historic Monuments in Europe (Robert Commissions) and the survey of the archives in Japan during and just after WWII. Because Japanese archivists seek the influence of General Head Quarter’s archival management policy as well as archival history, these records are significant. Ernst Posner was an educator of Archival Science as well as an important member of the Society of American Archivists. His papers speak to the friendship among archivists, the vivid history of SAA, and the activities of International Council on Archives (ICA).

  • Guest Editorial
    Guest Editorial The issues (Vol.21, No.2 and Vol.21, No.4) of the Journal of Arid Land Studies contain the Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Arid Land (Desert Technology X), held on May 24 - 27 at Hotel Toyoko-Inn Narita Kuko in Narita and held on May 28 at Tokyo University of Agriculture in Tokyo, Japan. The papers presented at the Conference and published in these Proceedings are divided into 10 categories; (1) Controlling the Alien Invasive Species (2) Soil Management (3) Valorization of BioResources (4) Vegetation (5) Hydrology (6) Food Production (7) Desertification and Meteorology (8) Water Management and Energy (9) Arid Land Water Cycle (10) Culture and Life Within each session, a broad diversity of scientific researches, innovative technologies, new applications of technologies and important social perspectives were presented. This reflects the multi-disciplinary approach that will be required to address the challenges toward sustainable management of desert, arid and semiarid regions. The current issue (Vol.21, No.2) contains the proceedings of the Keynote Lectures and Joint International Symposium with JAALS. The draft manuscripts of papers were reviewed by two anonymous reviewers after Conference, except the memorial papers for Prof. Kobori. Revised versions of the papers were then resubmitted. If the manuscripts were revised satisfactorily, they were accepted for publication. The Conference Editorial Panel acknowledges the vital contributions of the following reviewers; List of Reviewers Yukuo ABE, University of Tsukuba, Japan, Majed ABU-ZREIG, Jordan University of Science and Technology, Jordan Ould Ahmed BOUYA AHMED, Institute of Superior Education and Technologies, Mauritania Mingyang DU, National Institute for Agro-Environmental Sciences, Japan Yasuyuki EGASHIRA, Osaka University, Japan Hany A.

  • The Saddharmapundarika and Its Influence
    THE SADDHARMAPUNDARIKA AND ITS INFLUENCE By Senchu Murano The following paper is a summary of Hokekyo no Shiso to Bunka, edited by Yukio Sakamoto, Dean of the Faculty of Buddhism at Rissho University,Tokyo. (Kyoto,Heirakuji-shoten,1965; 711 pp., Index 31 pp.; Yen 4,000.) PA RT I : THE HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF THE SADDHARMAPUNDARIKA Chapter L The Formation of the Saddharmapunda?'lka A. The Saddharmapundarika and Indian Culture ( Ensho K anakura) H. Kern holds that the character of the Saddharmapundarika is similar to that of Narayana in the Bhagavadglta and that the Bhagavadglta had great influence on the Saddharmapun­ darika. Winternitz points out the influence of the Purdnas on the stitra, and Farquhar thinks that the Vedantas influenced the sutra. Kern shows us the materials for his opinion, but W inter­ nitz and Farquhar do not. On the other hand,Charles Eliot and H. von Glasenapp do speak of the influences of other religions on this sutra. They try to find the sources of the philosophy of the Saddharma­ pundarika in the current thought of India of the time. This is more convincing. It seems to be true to some extent that the Saddharmapun- — 315 — Senchu Murano dartka was influenced by the Bhagavadglta. It is also true, however, that the monotheistic idea given in the Bhagavadglta was already apparent in the Svetasvatara Upanisad, and that monotheism prevailed in India for some centuries around the beginning of the Christian Era. W e can say that the Saddhar- mapundarlka^ the Bhagavadglta, and other pieces of literature of a similar nature were produced from the common ground of the same age.
