The rapid growth of interest in attaching energy-dispersive x-ray analysis systems to transmission electron microscopes has centered largely on microanalysis of biological specimens. These are frequently either embedded in plastic or supported by an organic film, which is of great importance as regards stability under the beam since it provides thermal and electrical conductivity from the specimen to the grid.Unfortunately, the supporting medium also produces continuum x-radiation or Bremsstrahlung, which is added to the x-ray spectrum from the sample. It is not difficult to separate the characteristic peaks from the elements in the specimen from the total continuum background, but sometimes it is also necessary to separate the continuum due to the sample from that due to the support. For instance, it is possible to compute relative elemental concentrations in the sample, without standards, based on the relative net characteristic elemental intensities without regard to background; but to calculate absolute concentration, it is necessary to use the background signal itself as a measure of the total excited specimen mass.

Batik artwork is one of the treasures of the nation's cultural heritage. Batik artwork is currently experiencing rapid growth. The amount of interest and market demand for this art resulted batik artwork became one of the commodities in the country and abroad. Thus, if the batik artwork is not protected then the future can be assured of a new conflict arises in the realm of intellectual property law. Act No. 28 of 2014 on Copyright has accommodated artwork batik as one of the creations that are protected by law. So that this work of art than as a cultural heritage also have economic value for its creator. Then how the legal protection of the batik artwork yaang not registered? Does this also can be protected? While in the registration of intellectual property rights is a necessity so that it has the force of law to the work produced

Dentro de la creciente investigación sobre la influencia de las ideas y de la ciencia económica en las políticas económicas se propone el análisis del sistema de debate de las políticas económicas. Se asume que la política económica en democracia debe integrar la racionalidad político-democrática con la racionalidad técnica. Se analizan tres dimensiones que conforman el sistema de debate de la política económica: la ciencia económica, el gobierno y los discursos dominantes. En base a literatura empírica, datos secundarios y entrevistas se comparan los sistemas de Dinamarca y España, ilustrado con el caso de las políticas laborales. Primero, se identifican las diferencias principales de la ciencia económica danesa y española, especialmente su orientación aplicada la política pública. Segundo, se compara el papel del gobierno en las políticas económicas, específicamente la forma de incorporación de la racionalidad técnica en la toma de decisiones. Tercero, se contrasta el funcionamiento de los discursos dominantes, liderados por organizaciones como los think tanks especializados. Se concluye que el sistema de debate en política económica en Dinamarca tiene un carácter institucionalizado que integra la racionalidad política y la racionalidad técnica, y en España una fuerte racionalidad política domina sobre la racionalidad técnica.
