“…A graphical adaptation [27] of these lattice constants is shown in figure 7, in a 2 × 2 cell structure in the x – y plane [26], in which oxygen atoms are represented by red spheres at the verticies of the tetrahedrons and the silicon atoms are at the centre. This structure results in an average of 11.3 surface (or near surface) silicon atoms per nm 2 .…”

A simple, rapid quantitative approach to determining attachment density on silica nanoparticles has been demonstrated using attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and verified by thermogravimetric analysis. A very high attachment of approximately 5 attachments per nm2 has been achieved through photoinduced thiol–ene click reaction of 11-bromo-1-undecene with a thiol functionalized silica nanoparticle formed from mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane as the sole precursor. Attachment density with concentration of alkene and reaction time is shown to be highly nonlinear and appears to be limited by accessability of thiols on the surface of the particle. This method opens the opportunity to form nanoparticles with controlled functionality including multifunctional particles, which have been produced in this work.

“…The Internet, in general, changed forms of expression of dissent and has become a natural and dynamic platform and meeting space for mobilization and discussion (Monshipouri, 2019, p. 167). In the Middle East, the Internet also served as a tool for propagating nationalism and organizing online campaigns fueled by nationalist sentiments (Akhavan, 2013, p. 17). Like Iranian nationalists (Akhavan, 2013, p. 23), the Sadrists have heavily relied on social media to air their nationalist views on Iran.…”

“…In the Middle East, the Internet also served as a tool for propagating nationalism and organizing online campaigns fueled by nationalist sentiments (Akhavan, 2013, p. 17). Like Iranian nationalists (Akhavan, 2013, p. 23), the Sadrists have heavily relied on social media to air their nationalist views on Iran. “Persian Iran is behind every malaise taking place in Iraq,” a Sadrist news channel on the Telegram messaging app thundered amid heightened tensions with former Prime Minister Nouri al‐Maliki whose recently leaked audiotape inflamed deeply rooted feuds with the Sadrists (Uruk News, 2022).…”

Iran in the Sadrist version of Iraqi nationalism

Unlike many other Shiite political factions in Iraq, the Sadrist movement has become increasingly vocal in its criticism of Iranian influence in Iraq. Anti‐Iran chants have become almost ubiquitous in Sadrist demonstrations over the past few years, and prominent Sadrist politicians have unabashedly pointed the finger of blame for Iraq's crises at Iran. The growing Sadrist criticism of Iran has simultaneously come with the gradual ascendance of nationalist narratives in the religious movement. This article aims to study these narratives and their correlation with Iran. It argues that the Sadrist version of Iraqi nationalism encompasses three components that aim to differentiate Iraqi Arab Shiite identity from Iran. It also studies how Sadrist nationalism contributed to the rise of the Iran‐bashing trend among Iraqi Shiites.

Online Social Research in Iran: A Need to Offer a Bigger Picture

Given the limits of in-country and survey research in closed societies, the World Wide Web - in particular online forums - offers an alternative field for observing and understanding these societies and their development. However, the praise given to the Internet's role in bringing about political change in Arab uprisings and the 2009 elections post protests has resulted in a tendency in the existing literature to focus on very narrow political discussions and behaviors on partisan online forums. Consequently, various areas of interest to Iranian users have been neglected or ignored. The aim of this review is to identify the major online spheres of the Iranian web, the most important online forums in each sphere, the issues being discussed, and the characteristics of the users of each sphere and forum. By doing so it recognizes the theoretical and methodological drawbacks of existing online research on the Iranian Web. This review concludes with some suggestions for further online social research in Iran.
