Quartile01:15

Quartile

Quartiles are numbers that separate the data into quarters. Quartiles may or may not be part of the data. To find the quartiles, first, find the median or second quartile. The first quartile, Q1, is the middle value of the lower half of the data, and the third quartile, Q3, is the middle value, or median, of the upper half of the data. To get the idea, consider the same data set:
1; 1; 2; 2; 4; 6; 6.8; 7.2; 8; 8.3; 9; 10; 10; 11.5
The median or second quartile is seven. The lower half of the...
Subatomic Particles03:37

Subatomic Particles

Dalton was only partially correct about the particles that make up matter. All matter is composed of atoms, and atoms are composed of three smaller subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. These three particles account for the mass and the charge of an atom.
The Quantum-Mechanical Model of an Atom02:45

The Quantum-Mechanical Model of an Atom

Shortly after de Broglie published his ideas that the electron in a hydrogen atom could be better thought of as being a circular standing wave instead of a particle moving in quantized circular orbits, Erwin Schrödinger extended de Broglie’s work by deriving what is now known as the Schrödinger equation. When Schrödinger applied his equation to hydrogen-like atoms, he was able to reproduce Bohr’s expression for the energy and, thus, the Rydberg formula governing hydrogen spectra. Schrödinger...
Clamper Circuit01:14

Clamper Circuit

A clamper circuit, also known as a DC restorer, represents a specialized variant of the rectifier circuit, notable for its method of taking the output across the diode rather than the capacitor. This configuration lends to several distinctive applications, particularly in handling square wave inputs.
Within this circuit, the diode's orientation prompts the capacitor to charge up to the level of the most negative peak of the input signal. Upon reaching this state, the diode ceases to conduct,...
Fermi Level01:18

Fermi Level

The Fermi-Dirac function is represented by an S-shaped curve indicating the probability of an energy state being occupied by an electron at a given temperature. The Fermi level is the energy level at which there is a fifty percent chance of finding an electron, and it is positioned between the lower-energy valence band and the higher-energy conduction band.
At absolute zero temperature, electrons fill all energy states up to the Fermi level, leaving upper states empty. As the temperature rises,...
The Quotient Rule01:30

The Quotient Rule

The quotient rule is a fundamental differentiation technique in calculus used to differentiate functions expressed as a ratio of two differentiable functions. Given a function of the form:Where g(x) and h(x) are both differentiable and h(x) ≠ 0, the derivative of f(x) is given by:Example:The quotient rule is beneficial when differentiating rational functions, trigonometric ratios, and exponential functions. For example, given:applying the quotient rule,This rule is essential in solving problems...

Summary

This paper introduces The(e)ories, a seminar series exploring queer theory and lesbian studies. It highlights their intersection and divergence from US/UK-centric models in Irish praxis.

Area of Science:

  • Queer Studies
  • Sexuality Studies
  • Cultural Studies

Background:

  • Established The(e)ories: Advanced Seminars for Queer Research at University College Dublin in 2003.
  • Queer Theory, often US/UK-centric, dominates sexuality discussions.
  • Existing models may not fully capture diverse theoretical intersections.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Introduce the The(e)ories seminar series.
  • Illustrate how its aims and development mirror and deviate from dominant Queer Theory models.
  • Demonstrate the intersection of Queer Theory and Lesbian Studies in Irish praxis.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative analysis of seminar development and aims.
  • Comparative approach examining The(e)ories against US/UK-centric Queer Theory.

  • Case study of praxis in Ireland.

    • Main Results:

    • The(e)ories' trajectory reflects but also diverges from established Queer Theory.
    • Queer Theory and Lesbian Studies show significant intersection in the Irish context.
    • The 'collision model' is insufficient to describe these intersections.

    Conclusions:

    • The(e)ories offers a unique model for advancing Queer Theory and Lesbian Studies.
    • Praxis in Ireland reveals nuanced interplays beyond dominant theoretical frameworks.
    • Further research should explore non-US/UK-centric models of sexuality studies.
