Physical Cranial Characters of Wajak Man

Human fossils from Wajak, or better known as Wajak Man which is noted as Wajak 1, have been discovered by von Rietschoten in 1888 during exploration prospecting activities at the marble mine area in Tulungagung. The Wajak 1 found in cave sediments during disorganized excavation, therefore the stratigraphic position of the fossil was uncertain. Until this time, since the discovery of the fossil, not many study and publications have been performed on the fossil of Wajak 1. For this reason, this research attempted to compare Wajak 1 with Homo erectus fossils from Ngandong, Sambungmacan, and Sangiran to understand the presence of a linearity pattern based on anatomy of the physical cranial characters. The research was conducted through qualitative analysis by comparing the anatomy of all samples, and quantitative analysis by measuring some biometric parameters of cranium which then processed by statistical methods. Based on PCA analysis, the fossils of Ng 9, Ng 10, Ng 11, Sm 1, Sm 3, Sm 4, Sn 17, Ngawi 1, and Wajak 1 have some kinship based on two principal components as a variable that mostly contributed. Particularly, the specimen of Wajak 1 has the furthermost kinship with other fossils based on maximum cranial length and minimum frontal breadth. Based on these parameters, the Wajak 1 has the largest size in comparison with other fossil samples. The fossil Ngawi 1 and Sm 3 have a close relationship because both of the samples have a smallest size among others, as indicated by their maximum cranial length, minimum frontal breadth, parietal chord, and occipital chord. The specimens of Ng 9, Ng 10, Ng 11 closed to one another and formed in one group, while Sm 1 and Sm 4 close to Sn 17 and form another group. Ng 9, Ng 10, and Ng 11 have a greater values on four parameters compared to the specimens Sm 1, Sm 4, and Sn 17. The result of cluster analysis shows the cluster pattern similar to PCA as shown in the dendrogram. Based on comparative anatomy, the Wajak 1 has most rounded shape and largest cranium. Another different could be seen visibly in the supraorbital torus which is thin and curve tends to follow the shape of orbital. A prominent supraorbital torus is a character belongs to Homo erectus was observed in the specimens Sm 1, Sm 4, Sn 17, Ng 9, Ng 10, Ng 11, Sm 3, and Ngawi 1, but it was not observed in Wajak 1. So, it could be concluded that Wajak 1 is belongs to Homo sapiens which has a characters no prominent supraorbital torus, most rounded form and largest size among other specimens.

MEASURING EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION IN SMALL ANDMEDIUM SIZED ENTERPRISES

Employee satisfaction is considered to be a critical success factor for organizations. The concept of employee satisfaction has gained a special concern from both academicians and practitioners. This study aims to provide a framework for employee satisfaction and determine the critical factors of employee satisfaction and to measure their effect on overall evaluation of employee satisfaction in small and medium sized enterprises (SME) based on the data collected from Turkey. Data analysis revealed that there is a positive relationship between the each factor of employee satisfaction which are named satisfaction from pay and benefits (P&B), satisfaction from peers (P), satisfaction from management (M), satisfaction from working environment (WE), satisfaction from superior (S) and overall employee loyalty in SMEs. Furthermore, relevant recommendations and measures for improving the employee satisfaction are proposed

Relativistic Spectrum of Hydrogen Atom in Space-Time Non-Commutativity

We study space-time non-commutativity applied to the hydrogen atom via the Seiberg-Witten map and its phenomenological effects. We find that it modifies the Coulomb potential in the Hamiltonian and add an r-3 part. By calculating the energies from Dirac equation using perturbation theory, we study the modifications to the hydrogen spectrum. We find that it removes the degeneracy with respect to the total angular momentum quantum number and acts like a Lamb shift. Comparing the results with experimental values from spectroscopy, we get a new bound for the space-time non-commutative parameter. N.B: In precedent works (arXiv:0907.1904, arXiv:1003.5732 and arXiv:1006.4590), we have used the Bopp Shift formulation of non-commutativity but here use it \`a la Seiberg-Witten in the Relativistic case.Comment: 5 pages, 1 table, ICPTP 2011 Constantine, Algeri
