    Full text link
    Kurangnya kedisiplinan siswa menyebabkan banyak siswa yang melanggar aturan sekolah. Salah satu upaya untuk mendisiplinkan siswa adalah dengan menerapkan ekstrakurikuler pramuka. Penelitian ini berupaya mengungkapkan pengaruh kegiatan ekstrakurikuler pramuka terhadap kedisiplinan siswa di SD Negeri 10 Banda Aceh. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh antara kegiatan ekstrakurikuler pramuka dengan kedisiplinan siswadi SD Negeri 10 Banda Aceh. Hipotesis penelitian yakni terdapat pengaruh antara kegiatan ekstrakurikuler pramuka dengan kedisiplinan siswa di SD Negeri 10 Banda Aceh. Pendekatan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif dengan jenis penelitian korelasional. Penelitian ini dilakukan di SD Negeri 10 Banda Aceh dengan sampel sebanyak 55 siswa. Populasi diambil dari kelas V, yaitu kelas VA dan VB. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah angket tertutup dari masing-masing variabel dengan menggunakan skala likert. Uji reliabilitas dan uji prasyarat analisis menggunakan SPSS 20.0. Pengujian hipotesis menggunakan uji korelasi Product Moment dengan bantuan SPSS 20,0. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat pengaruh yang signifikan antara kegiatan ekstrakurikuler pramuka dengan kedisiplinan siswa di kelas V SD Negeri 10 Banda Aceh. Terbukti dari hasil analisis korelasi antara ekstrakurikuler pramuka dengan kedisiplinan siswa diperoleh nilai korelasi 0,405 > 0,2656 dan signifikan 0,002 < 0,005. Ini berarti bahwa terdapat pengaruh positif yang signifikan antara ekstrakurikuler pramuka dengan kedisiplinan siswa

    Observation of Neutrons with a Gadolinium Doped Water Cerenkov Detector

    Full text link
    Spontaneous and induced fission in Special Nuclear Material (SNM) such as 235U and 239Pu results in the emission of neutrons and high energy gamma-rays. The multiplicities of and time correlations between these particles are both powerful indicators of the presence of fissile material. Detectors sensitive to these signatures are consequently useful for nuclear material monitoring, search, and characterization. In this article, we demonstrate sensitivity to both high energy gamma-rays and neutrons with a water Cerenkov based detector. Electrons in the detector medium, scattered by gamma-ray interactions, are detected by their Cerenkov light emission. Sensitivity to neutrons is enhanced by the addition of a gadolinium compound to the water in low concentrations. Cerenkov light is similarly produced by an 8 MeV gamma-ray cascade following neutron capture on the gadolinium. The large solid angle coverage and high intrinsic efficiency of this detection approach can provide robust and low cost neutron and gamma-ray detection with a single device.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures.

    Masculinity at work: The experiences of men in female dominated occupations

    This paper presents the findings of a research project on the implications of men's non-traditional career choices for their experiences within the organization and for gender identity. The research is based on 40 in-depth interviews with male workers from four occupational groups: librarian-ship, cabin crew, nurses and primary school teachers. Results suggest a typology of male workers in female dominated occupations: seekers (who actively seek the career), finders (who find the occupation in the process of making general career decisions) and settlers (who settle into the career after periods of time in mainly male dominated occupations). Men benefit from their minority status through assumptions of enhanced leadership (the assumed authority effect), by being given differential treatment (the special consideration effect) and being associated with a more careerist attitude to work (the career effect). At the same time, they feel comfortable working with women (the zone of comfort effect). Despite this comfort, men adopt a variety of strategies to re-establish a masculinity that has been undermined by the 'feminine' nature of their work. These include re-labeling, status enhancement and distancing from the feminine. The dynamics of maintaining and reproducing masculinities within the non-traditional work setting are discussed in the light of recent theorising around gender, masculinity and work

    Inflection Point Inflation and Time Dependent Potentials in String Theory

    Full text link
    We consider models of inflection point inflation. The main drawback of such models is that they suffer from the overshoot problem. Namely the initial condition should be fine tuned to be near the inflection point for the universe to inflate. We show that stringy realizations of inflection point inflation are common and offer a natural resolution to the overshoot problem.Comment: 15 pages, 2 figures, refs. adde

    Pengembangan Sistem Keamanan Informasi Menggunakan Metode Kriptografi 3des dan Steganografi Random Byte Position Encoding pada Audio

    Full text link
    Salah satu upaya dalam menjamin keamanan dan keutuhan dari suatu data adalah proses penyandian. Sistem pengamanan pesan dapat dilakukan dengan menggunakan teknologi kriptografi. Selain itu, dikenal juga teknologi steganografi yang merupakan seni menyembunyikan pesan rahasia ke dalam suatu media sehingga tidak ada yang mengetahui atau menyadari selain pengirim dan penerima bahwa terdapat sebuah pesan rahasia. Dalam skripsi ini, sebuah “Sistem Keamanan Informasi Menggunakan Metode Kriptografi 3DES dan Steganografi Random Byte Position Encoding pada Audio” dikembangkan dalam upaya menjamin keamanan dan keutuhan data. Implementasi steganografi akan disertai dengan penerapan kriptografi berupa enkripsi dan dekripsi. Teknik kriptografi yang akan digunakan adalah 3DES. Langkah pengamanan informasi dilakukan dengan enkripsi terhadap teks atau image terlebih dahulu menggunakan metode 3DES yang selanjutnya akan disisipkan menggunakan metode random byte posistion encoding. Hasil dari implementasi kriptografi dan steganografi ini mengandung noise yang terdengar secara langsung ketika media dijalankan di pemutar musik. Hasil dari 28 kali pengujian pada proses penyisipan menghasilkan tingkat keberhasilan 86% dan kegagalan penyisipan 14% yang disebabkan oleh kapasitas audio. Pengujian mendapatkan analisa dari tingkat keberhasilan proses enkripsi dan proses dekripsi, kecepatan proses, Perubahan audio, dan media pengiriman yang digunakan. Perubahan audio pada penyisipan gambar mendapat rentang pebedaan RMS volume antara sebelum dan sesudah penyisipan sebesar 0,01 dB hingga 3,02 dB. Metode Kriptografi 3DES dan Steganografi Random Byte Position Encoding disimpulkan dapat mengamankan dengan baik dan memberikan hasil dekripsi dengan kecocokan 100% dengan pesan asli

    Gamma radiation survey of the LDEF spacecraft

    Get PDF
    The retrieval of the Long Duration Exposure Facility spacecraft in January 1990 after nearly six years in orbit offered a unique opportunity to study the long term buildup of induced radioactivity in the variety of materials on board. We conducted the first complete gamma-ray survey of a large spacecraft on LDEF shortly after its return to earth. A surprising observation was the Be-7 activity which was seen primarily on the leading edge of the satellite, implying that it was picked up by LDEF in orbit. This is the first known evidence for accretion of a radioactive isotope onto an orbiting spacecraft. Other isotopes observed during the survey, the strongest being Na-22, are all attributed to activation of spacecraft components. Be-7 is a spallation product of cosmic rays on nitrogen and oxygen in the upper atmosphere. However, the observed density is much greater than expected due to cosmic-ray production in situ. This implies transport of Be-7 from much lower altitudes up to the LDEF orbit

    The significance of seniority for women managers’ interpretations of organizational restructuring

    Get PDF
    This paper examines the impact of restructuring within the transport and logistics sector on women managers working at senior and less senior (middle/junior management) levels of the organization. The majority of women experienced increased performance pressures and heavier workloads as well as an increase in working hours. At the same time, there were pressures to work at home (i.e. week-ends and evenings) and reduced opportunities to work from home (i.e. during normal office hours). Management level emerged as an important factor in how these changes were interpreted. Senior managers perceived more positive outcomes in terms of increased motivation and loyalty. Despite a longer working week, they were less likely to report low morale as an outcome from long hours. In fact, irrespective of management level, women working shorter hours were more likely to report low morale as an outcome. Results are discussed in relation to literature on restructuring and careers, in terms of perceptual framing and in relation to different levels of investment in the organization
