Personality Traits and Physical Activity
This study explores the intriguing relationship between personality traits, self-rated fitness (SRF), and physical activity (PA) variables among German university students (N = 4244) and sheds light on the impact of personality on adherence to PA guidelines. Employing an online cross-sectional study, the short-form of the Big Five Inventory-2 assessed five domains of personality traits (Extraversion, Negative Emotionality, Agreeableness, Conscien…
Targeting Ion Beam Analysis techniques for gold artefacts
The present study discusses the best experimental conditions for the quantitative analysis of gold jewellery artefacts by ion beam techniques (PIXE, RBS, PIGE and NRA). Special attention is given to the detection of enhancement or depletion below the surface, down to 10 microns, without any sampling or destruction. PIXE is certainly the most interesting technique for this purpose and the optimal geometrical arrangement of the experiment is descri…
Analytical study of the manufacturing techniques of Kushan gold jewellery (National Museum of Antiquities of Tajikistan)
Little is known about goldsmithing during the period of the Great Kushans. In order to undertake a first approach to the technological choices and the gold alloys used in the fabrication of the different parts of Kushan objects, five gold jewellery items from the collections of the National Museum of Antiquities of Tajikistan containing wires and granulation were transported from Dushanbe to Paris to be studied within the European research projec…
Tecnología atlántica para dioses mediterráneos. Los 'candelabros' de oro tipo Lebrija
El depósito de Lebrija (Sevilla) compuesto por seis objetos iguales se creía único en su género hasta la aparición en el mercado de antigüedades de un nuevo ejemplar que repite la morfología y técnica de fabricación de estos llamados candelabros. Hemos estudiado los siete ejemplares desde el punto de vista tecnológico, funcional y simbólico, además de realizar análisis de composición mediante el método PlXE. Creemos que se trata de una serie de p…
Is Scanning Electron Microprobe Suitable for Complete Elemental Analysis of Solders on Gold Artifacts
We comment on the inability of most scanning electron micro‐probes equipped with energy dispersive solid state X‐ray detectors to identify low amounts of cadmium in regions of solders on ancient artifacts. Traces of cadmium, even in the presence of high silver concentration determined with a nuclear microprobe, do not then contradict the results given by electron probes
La Chrysocolle Des Orfevres Est‐elle Jaune
During the investigation of solders on ancient gold artifacts found in Iran and Syria, cadmium was found at a concentration up to several per cent. Careful interpretation of relative concentrations of copper, silver and cadmium in those solders easily enables discrimination between brazing of modern and ancient origin and forms a simple criterion of identification. Experimental archaeology corroborates this. We suggest a new interpretation of Boo…
