Analisis Framing Episode mereka Ramai-ramai Menggugat Kpk pada Program Realitas Metro TV
Early 2015 in Indonesia is dominated by the feud between the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) and the Indonesian National Police (INP). Realitas is an investigative news program in Metro TV that review more into the news. Realitas review the feud between the KPK and the National Police in the episode "They are busy to sue KPK" that aired on January 27, 2014. Authors interested to know more framing done by Reality related dispute between the Commission and the National Police. The aim of this study was to determine the framing analysis episode "They are busy to sue KPK" on Metro TV program Realitas.This study uses a qualitative method analysis model framing Robert Entman. Data collection techniques used is through observation and documentation. As for the examination of the validity of data researchers used a technique of persistence observation.Results of the study found that Realitas framed the the KPK case as a group or individual efforts to weaken the KPK. The weakening over attacks and reporting to the KPK dignitaries. Weakening efforts has any connection with the determination of Commissioner General Budi Gunawan as a suspect by the KPK. President Joko Widodo urged to mediate in case of dispute the KPK and the National Police. The issue of criminalization of the KPK that appear in this episode so that the people think it is an attempt to criminalize the the KPK dignitaries.Keyword : Analysis Framing, KPK, Polr
Final results of an experiment to search for 2beta processes in zinc and tungsten with the help of radiopure ZnWO4 crystal scintillators
A search for the double beta decay of zinc and tungsten isotopes has been
performed with the help of radiopure ZnWO4 crystal scintillators (0.1-0.7 kg)
at the Gran Sasso National Laboratories of the INFN. The total exposure of the
low background measurements is 0.529 kg yr. New improved half-life limits on
the double beta decay modes of 64Zn, 70Zn, 180W, and 186W have been established
at the level of 10^{18}-10^{21} yr. In particular, limits on double electron
capture and electron capture with positron emission in 64Zn have been set:
T_{1/2}(2\nu 2K) > 1.1 10^{19} yr, T_{1/2} (0\nu 2\epsilon) > 3.2 10^{20} yr,
T_{1/2} (2\nu \epsilon \beta^+) > 9.4 10^{20} yr, and T_{1/2} (0\nu \epsilon
\beta^+) > 8.5 10^{20} yr, all at 90% C.L. Resonant neutrinoless double
electron capture in 180W has been restricted on the level of T_{1/2} (0\nu
2\epsilon) > 1.3 10^{18} yr. A new half-life limit on alpha transition of 183W
to the metastable excited level 1/2^- 375 keV of 179Hf has been established:
T_{1/2} > 6.7 10^{20} yr.Comment: This is an author-created, un-copyedited version of an article

Improvement of radiopurity level of enriched CdWO and ZnWO crystal scintillators by recrystallization
As low as possible radioactive contamination of a detector plays a crucial
role to improve sensitivity of a double beta decay experiment. The radioactive
contamination of a sample of CdWO crystal scintillator by thorium
was reduced by a factor , down to the level 0.01 mBq/kg
(Th), by exploiting the recrystallization procedure. The total alpha
activity of uranium and thorium daughters was reduced by a factor ,
down to 1.6 mBq/kg. No change in the specific activity (the total
activity and Th) was observed in a sample of ZnWO crystal produced
by recrystallization after removing mm surface layer of the
crystal.Comment: 14 pages, 5 figures and 2 table
Search for double beta decay of Ce and Ce with HPGe gamma detector
Search for double decay of Ce and Ce was realized
with 732 g of deeply purified cerium oxide sample measured over 1900 h with the
help of an ultra-low background HPGe detector with a volume of 465
cm at the STELLA facility of the Gran Sasso National Laboratories of the
INFN (Italy). New improved half-life limits on double beta processes in the
cerium isotopes were set at the level of ~yr;
many of them are even two orders of magnitude larger than the best previous
results.Comment: 21 pages, 6 figures, 3 tables; version accepted for publication on

New limits on , and decay of Ce and Ce with deeply purified cerium sample
A search for double electron capture (), electron capture with
positron emission (), and double positron emission
) in Ce and Ce was realized with a 465 cm
ultra-low background HP Ge spectrometer over 2299 h at the Gran Sasso
underground laboratory. A 627 g sample of cerium oxide deeply purified by
liquid-liquid extraction method was used as a source of quanta
expected in double decay of the cerium isotopes. New improved half-life
limits were set on different modes and channels of double decay of
Ce and Ce at the level of yr.Comment: 19 pages, 6 figures, 2 table
The event generator DECAY4 for simulation of double beta processes and decay of radioactive nuclei
The computer code DECAY4 is developed to generate initial energy, time and
angular distributions of particles emitted in radioactive decays of nuclides
and nuclear (atomic) deexcitations. Data for description of nuclear and atomic
decay schemes are taken from the ENSDF and EADL database libraries. The
examples of use of the DECAY4 code in several underground experiments are
described.Comment: 8 pages, 1 fi
Spin-independent elastic WIMP scattering and the DAMA annual modulation signal
We discuss the interpretation of the annual modulation signal seen in the
DAMA experiment in terms of spin-independent elastic WIMP scattering. Taking
into account channeling in the crystal as well as the spectral signature of the
modulation signal we find that the low-mass WIMP region consistent with DAMA
data is confined to WIMP masses close to GeV, in
disagreement with the constraints from CDMS and XENON. We conclude that even if
channeling is taken into account this interpretation of the DAMA modulation
signal is disfavoured. There are no overlap regions in the parameter space at
90% CL and a consistency test gives the probability of . We
study the robustness of this result with respect to variations of the WIMP
velocity distribution in our galaxy, by changing various parameters of the
distribution function, and by using the results of a realistic N-body dark
matter simulation. We find that only by making rather extreme assumptions
regarding halo properties can we obtain agreement between DAMA and CDMS/XENON.Comment: 21 pages, 12 figures, matches version accepted in JCA
First search for double-beta decay of 184Os and 192Os
A search for double-beta decay of osmium has been realized for the first time
with the help of an ultra-low background HPGe gamma detector at the underground
Gran Sasso National Laboratories of the INFN (Italy). After 2741 h of data
taking with a 173 g ultra-pure osmium sample limits on double-beta processes in
184Os have been established at the level of T_{1/2} about 10^{14}-10^{17} yr.
Possible resonant double-electron captures in 184Os were searched for with a
sensitivity T_{1/2} about 10^{16} yr. A half-life limit T_{1/2} > 5.3 10^{19}
yr was set for the double-beta decay of 192Os to the first excited level of
192Pt. The radiopurity of the osmium sample has been investigated and
radionuclides 137Cs, 185Os and 207Bi were detected in the sample, while
activities of 40K, 60Co, 226Ra and 232Th were limited at the mBq/kg level.Comment: 12 pages, 7 figures, 2 table
Search for 2\beta\ decays of 96Ru and 104Ru by ultra-low background HPGe gamma spectrometry at LNGS: final results
An experiment to search for double beta decay processes in 96Ru and 104Ru,
which are accompanied by gamma rays, has been realized in the underground Gran
Sasso National Laboratories of the I.N.F.N. (Italy). Ruthenium samples with
masses of about (0.5-0.7) kg were measured with the help of ultra-low
background high purity Ge gamma ray spectrometry. After 2162 h of data taking
the samples were deeply purified to reduce the internal contamination of 40K.
The last part of the data has been accumulated over 5479 h. New improved half
life limits on 2\beta+/\epsilon \beta+/2\epsilon\ processes in 96Ru have been
established on the level of 10^{20} yr, in particular for decays to the ground
state of 96Mo: T1/2(2\nu 2\beta+) > 1.4 10^{20} yr, T1/2(2\nu \epsilon\beta+) >
8.0 10^{19} yr and T1/2(0\nu 2K) > 1.0 10^{21} yr (all limits are at 90% C.L.).
The resonant neutrinoless double electron captures to the 2700.2 keV and 2712.7
keV excited states of 96Mo are restricted as: T1/2(0\nu KL) > 2.0 10^{20} yr
and T1/2(0\nu 2L) > 3.6 10^{20} yr, respectively. Various two neutrino and
neutrinoless 2\beta\ half lives of 96Ru have been estimated in the framework of
the QRPA approach. In addition, the T1/2 limit for 0\nu 2\beta- transitions of
104Ru to the first excited state of 104Pd has been set as > 6.5 10^{20} yr.Comment: 14 pages, 5 figures, 2 tables; version accepted for publication on
