As a part of this thesis, a Monte Carlo-based code has been developed capable of simulating the transition of proton beam properties to neutron beam properties as it occurs in the Li-7(p, n)Be-7 reaction. It is able to reproduce not only the angle-integrated energy distributions but it is also capable of predicting the angle-dependent neutron spectra as measured at Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe (Karlsruhe, Germany) and Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (Braunschweig, Germany). Since the code retains all three spatial dimensions as well as all three velocity dimensions, it provides very detailed information on the neutron beam. The resulting data can aid in many different aspects, for example it can be used in shielding construction, or for lithium target design. In this work, the code is used to predict the neutron beam properties expected at the Frankfurt Neutron Source at Stern-Gerlach-Zentrum (FRANZ) facility. For different proton beam energies, the neutron distribution in x/p_x, y/p_y, and z/p_z is shown as well as a Mollweide projection, which illustrates the kinematic collimation effect that limits the neutron cone opening angle to less than 180 degree.
This study analyzes storyline structure in three Hausa home videos; Mai Kudi (The Rich Man), Sanafahna (with time truth shall dawn) and Albashi (Salary). The study measures storyline structure in these films against a Hollywood film industry model of story writing “the Hero's Journey”. It uses narrative analysis as its analytical tool, and narrative theory as its framework. After analyzing these videos, the study found that the major elements of storyline structure in Vogler's model formed the framework of the storyline structure in Hausa home videos analyzed. However, in spite of the preponderance of these elements within the storyline structure, there are significant variations to Vogler's model. Specifically, Vogler's model has some twelve stages spread on the universal structure of storytelling, i.e. beginning, middle and end. Few of these stages were found to exist in Hausa narrative structure, perhaps due to cultural differences between Western, Indian and Hausa cultures. The study therefore recommends screenwriters and producers to be aware of the existence of standard models of scriptwriting. It also recommends more training for script writers in the Hausa film industry.
