    In a pragmatic view of media communication, we present a new method for studying cognitions during reception (labeled ECER method) to go beyond some theoretical and methodological limitations of dual-process theories of attitude formation and change. This implementation of real-time process-tracking operationalizes cognitive elaboration and cues that set processing in motion. It enables picking up viewers' cognitive responses during exposure to the message and analysing them with a cognitivo-discursive analysis (Tropes software). In a first application, the ECER method is integrated into an experiment on the role of the viewer's degree of involvement in cognitive processing. The results show that the more the viewers are involved, the more they engage in cognitive elaboration and the more they develop cognitive strategies of discourse that express a “ real world ”. Inconsistent with current models, we show that involvement does not result in processing one type of cues (peripheral or central) more than another

    A decay spectroscopy experiment was performed within the EURICA campaign at RIKEN in 2012. It aimed at the isomer and particle spectroscopy of excited states and ground states in the mass region below the doubly magic Sn-100. The N = Z nuclei In-98, Cd-96 and Ag-94 were of particular interest for the present study. Preliminary results on the neutron deficient nuclei Ag-93 and Ag-94 are presented. In Ag-94 a more precise value for the half-life of the ground state's superallowed Fermi transition was deduced. In addition the energy spectra of the mentioned decay could be reproduced through precise Geant4 simulations of the used active stopper SIMBA. This will enable us to extract Q(beta) values from the measured data. The decay of Ag-93 is discussed based on the observed implantation-decay correlation events
