This form of tourism not only promotes the value of personal memory, but also contributes to the development of local communities, cultural preservation and revitalization of historical sites (Shi et al., 2021 ). Its importance lies in offering travelers the opportunity to relive past eras, learn about the history of a place, and preserve traditions that might otherwise be lost to time (Chi & Chi, 2022a ). One of the positive axes of nostalgia tourism is its impact on the preservation of cultural heritage (Shiran et al., 2021 ). By traveling to relive significant moments or visit historical sites, people contribute to keeping alive the history and cultural identity of a region (Prayag & Del Chiappa, 2023 ). This generates a sustained interest in the preservation of ancient buildings, monuments, traditions and customs that are part of a community's legacy (Akgün et al., 2020 ). Nostalgia tourism benefits economically the localities that promote it. The restoration and preservation of historical sites, as well as the offer of authentic experiences related to the past, attract tourists interested in immersing themselves in an enriching experience (Kim et al., 2019 ). Likewise, another relevant aspect is the positive emotional impact it has on people, by reliving memories and special moments, nostalgia tourism can generate a sense of emotional connection, well-being and gratitude (Cho et al., 2019 ). This connection with the past can be therapeutic for many people, giving them a sense of belonging, identity and cultural rootedness that contributes to their emotional and mental well-being (Lin et al., 2022 ). To understand the current state of the field, it is essential to identify and analyze the academic results published so far. However, the importance of the characteristics lies in their ability to connect people to their past, identity, and emotions (Oh & Kim, 2020 ). Understanding these features enables tourism researchers and professionals to design strategies that meet the demand of tourists seeking to relive historical, cultural, or personal moments (Chen et al., 2021; Cho et al., 2021 ). In addition, these features can help preserve and promote cultural heritage, as well as revitalize tourism destinations that possess strong emotional and sentimental value for travelers (Kan et al., 2022 ). Thus, the characteristics are based on the focus of the past, preservation of authenticity, focus on emotional and sentimental, memorable, and personal experiences (Cho et al., 2020 ). The present research aims to identify and analyze the development of the field of nostalgia tourism through a comprehensive analysis of the scientific literature which is fundamental to understand the evolution, trends and contributions in this specific area. This approach allows us to trace a timeline that reveals the progression of ideas, theories and practices associated with nostalgia tourism over time. By systematically examining the existing literature, a broad and detailed perspective on the key issues addressed, emerging trends, as well as the identification of authors, journals and countries influential in the development of the field is achieved. This analysis not only provides a historical overview but can also reveal insights and areas for future research, making it an invaluable tool for academics, practitioners and policy makers interested in nostalgia tourism. 1.1 Nostalgia Tourism Nostalgia tourism is a specialized form of tourism that focuses on the exploration and commemoration of historical events, sites and places related to significant events of the past (Cifci, 2022 ; Stone et al., 2021 ). Likewise, this type of tourism seeks to remember and reflect on events that have left a deep imprint on human history, whether positive or negative (Y. Kim et al., 2021 ; Wang et al., 2020 ). Moreover, nostalgia tourism covers a wide range of topics, from commemorating tragedies such as the Holocaust or genocides to celebrating cultural and political achievements, such as the struggle for civil rights (Lai et al., 2021 ; F. Mora et al., 2022 ; Yi et al., 2021 ). In this way, it can include visits to museums, monuments, battlefields, historical sites, and places of cultural significance (Grimwood & Johnson, 2022 ; Mora et al., 2023 ; Tabaeeian et al., 2022 ). Nostalgia tourism was identified as a tool for sharing and repeating experiences (Kim et al., 2022 ; Stavrianea & Kamenidou, 2022 ). Therefore, memory tourism is not limited to viewing historical sites, but also seeks to foster reflection and education (Ding & Hung, 2021 ; Mora et al., 2023 ; Wen et al., 2022 ; Yu et al., 2021 ). Therefore, by exploring historical events from a personal perspective, memory tourism visitors can develop greater empathy for the people who lived through those difficult times (Hosany et al., 2021 ; Mora et al., 2022 ; Peng et al., 2021 ; Rasoolimanesh et al., 2021 ). However, it is important that this type of tourism is managed in a sustainable manner to preserve the authenticity of historical sites and to ensure adequate respect for the memory of the events (Chi & Chi, 2022b ; Jang et al., 2022 ). This type of tourism often contributes to the preservation and conservation of the historical and cultural heritage of a place, as it increases awareness and interest in keeping the memory of past events alive (Hosseini et al., 2021 ; Raimkulov et al., 2021 ). Indeed, tourists can experience a wide range of emotions, from sadness and awe to empathy and reflection (Tiwari et al., 2022 ; Ye et al., 2020 ; Zhang et al., 2020 ). Also, it contributes to economic development and the preservation of historically significant sites, as it attracts visitors from around the world and encourages investment in cultural heritage conservation (Kim, 2020 ). 2 Results 2.1 Annual scientific production The annual scientific production is a fundamental component in the bibliometric analysis through tools such as Bibliometrix (Agbo et al., 2021 ). Thus, in the following analysis it can be evidenced that in the year that began to have an impact on nostalgia tourism is from 1986, after this year it begins to have a positive growth in the years of 2002, 2005, 2008, 2013, 2017. However, in 2017 it has a negative impact, since it lowers the scientific production regarding the topic of nostalgia tourism. On the other hand, in 2018 until 2022 it grows consecutively, achieving more than 50 articles on the research topic. 2.2 Average citations per year The analysis shows that in 1994 it begins to have a positive impact, obtaining 2.6 citations (Guleria & Kaur, 2021 ). Similarly, in 1996 it has an absurd growth, achieving more than 7.5 citations during the period of that year. However, in 1998, the number of citations decreased, with a percentage of less than 2.5. On the other hand, after this negative impact in that year, it gradually increased from 2002, 2004, and 2008, achieving more than 6.0 citations. Likewise, in the years 2011, 2014, 2017, 2019 and 2023 it has a constant impact, however, in 2023 the citations provided are greater than 7.5; being the year with the highest citations on nostalgia tourism. 2.3 Plot of three fields According to the analysis of the three fields, it can be identified that the most relevant theme is nostalgia, being a fundamental factor in the research (Koo, 2021 ). Likewise, the next topic after the previous one is tourism, where it has less impact than the previous one, but is still an important axis in nostalgia tourism. On the other hand, heritage stands out as the third most sought-after thematic axis in the scientific community. However, topics such as motivation, authenticity, memory, dark tourism and identity are essential concepts for the search of this research. 2.4 Most relevant sources The first source is the Journal of Heritage Tourism with 21 articles on nostalgia tourism, therefore, it is called Journal of Tourism and Cultural Change. In third place is categorized Current Issues in Tourism with 17 articles; in fourth place is Annals of Tourism Research with 16 articles; in this way, Journal of Travel and Tourism Marketing stands out in fifth place since it has 13 publications related to nostalgia tourism. However, sources such as Journal of Sport and Tourism, Tourism Geographies, Journal of Travel Research, Tourism Management and Asia Pacific Journal of Tourism Research have a total of 38 articles. According to the above, an analysis is made in VOSviewer where the relationship of each relevant source is shown in four clusters, which are differentiated by three colors (Abdullah, 2021 ). The red cluster is where the greatest impact of the magazines on nostalgia tourism is evidenced. The green cluster stands out for having five important sources; likewise, the blue cluster is identified as having the fewest relevant sources. 2.5 Production of the sources over time The production of sources over time is crucial to understand the evolution of research in various areas, which can be useful for decision-making in scientific policies, identification of priority research areas and monitoring the impact of research (Arruda et al., 2022). Likewise, it is identified that the most relevant source with the greatest impact in 2023 is the Journal of Heritage Tourism, with more than 20 cumulative occurrences. Similarly, in second place, is the Journal of Tourism and Cultural and Change with an occurrence of 18. Therefore, the source Current Issues in Tourism and Annals of Tourism Research stand out for having a cumulative occurrence between 16 and 17. On the other hand, Journal of travel and Tourism Marketing has an impact of 13, so it is stated that it is the source with the lowest scientific production during the year 2022 and 2023. 2.6 Most relevant authors The impact of those authors who have relevance in nostalgia tourism is analyzed, in this way, 10 authors who are fundamental according to bibliometrics are named (Igwaren & Edoamodu, 2021).

This contrast in motivations offers a deeper understanding of how the distinctive attributes of each park influence tourists' travel decisions in the nostalgic realm. 2.21 Determinants Nostalgia tourism focuses on experiences that evoke past times, generating positive emotions by remembering or reliving historical, cultural or personal moments. Within this area, several determinants of nostalgia tourism can be identified, thus, this type of tourism not only involves a physical trip to past places, but also involves deeply rooted emotions and personal experiences. Historical sites, preservation of cultural traditions, ancient architecture and activities that evoke memories are key elements that will attract travelers in search of emotional and cultural reconnection. The importance of these determinants lies in their ability to preserve collective identity, transmit cultural legacies and foster a sense of belonging, allowing people to better understand their history and find meaning in their own lives through these nostalgic experiences. 3 Methods To consolidate the bibliometric study and the systematic review (Novanee et al., 2023), the Scopus database and Science Direct were used following the PRISMA (Page et al., 2023 ) guidelines of the empirical studies found in the database including a total of 2,501 studies based on the theory of nostalgia tourism. This systematic review evidenced the importance of knowing the term nostalgia tourism. Likewise, the chronology of the analysis was carried out using the following search strategy in this database, considering the inclusion and exclusion criteria. 3.1 Document selection The data taken into account in the selection of documents included the author, title, abstract, keywords, year, number of citations and language (Mora et al., 2023 ). As a result, there were 523 in the Scopus database and 1,978 in Scieence Direct, giving a total of 2,501. In addition, 924 documents were eliminated because they were duplicate records. Therefore, 1,577 records were examined; 410 documents were excluded because they were not in English. Reports sought for retrieval were 1,167. Likewise, 237 documents were not retrieved, 498 are studies not related to the topic of nostalgia tourism; 351 studies are totally related to tourism. On the other hand, 81 documents were evaluated for document eligibility; 61 full-text articles were excluded. To conclude, 20 documents were considered for the systematic review where the authors, title, objective, methodology and determinants of each article related to nostalgia tourism are highlighted. 4 Discussion and Conclusion Memory tourism has emerged as a significant way to engage with historical events, and it has been argued that it goes beyond simply visiting historical sites. However, authors Yan & Santos ( 2009 ) identify the importance of constructing a narrative that evokes an idealized and exotic past, generating a romantic and dreamy perception of destinations and cultures. In this way, the results indicate that the approach determines an emotional and reflective connection with the past, promoting both education and empathy towards those who experienced historical moments. However, according to authors Ding & Hung ( 2021 ) Mora et al ( 2023 ); Wen et al ( 2022 ); Yu et al ( 2021 ) emphasize that nostalgia tourism is not limited to viewing historical places, but also seeks to foster reflection and education. That said, the results determine that this type of tourism does not only involve physical travel to past places, but also involves deeply rooted emotions and personal experiences. The comprehensive bibliometric analysis conducted in this study on nostalgia tourism provides a comprehensive and detailed view of the current state of the field. Through tools such as R Core Team 2022-Bibliometrix and VOSviewer software, trends, prevalent themes, prominent authors and influential publications in the scientific literature on this topic have been identified. The results obtained provide a solid basis for understanding the existing theoretical and conceptual framework in nostalgia tourism, highlighting specific areas that require further research. This systematic review of Scopus and Science Direct provides a valuable contribution to the academic field by consolidating current knowledge and fostering enriched and substantiated features on this tourism phenomenon. The relevance of this study is not only limited to its contribution to the existing literature, but also establishes a solid platform for future research in the field of nostalgia tourism. The findings and conclusions drawn provide valuable guidance for researchers and academics interested in delving deeper into this area, pointing to specific areas where more information and development is needed. In addition, by providing a detailed analysis of the most researched topics and influential publications, this article facilitates a clearer understanding of the determinants and directions that research in this field has taken. According to the results, the determinants lie in their ability to influence the motivations, behaviors and experiences of nostalgic tourists. These determinants, which can range from emotional and psychological aspects to sociocultural and contextual factors, act as key drivers that guide the choice of destinations, activities and consumption patterns during these trips. Understanding these determinants not only allows the tourism industry to adapt strategies and offerings to the needs and desires of this segment of travelers, but also contributes to the development of more effective policies and the creation of more authentic and meaningful tourism experiences for those seeking to relive memories and connect with the past through nostalgia tourism. The growing importance and significant impact it has on the tourism industry, as well as on the travelers' experience, has been evidenced. However, there are still areas to be further explored and understood. Future lines of research focus on the connection between nostalgia tourism and sustainability, exploring how this type of tourism can coexist with more responsible and eco-friendly practices. In addition, in-depth analysis of the psychological and emotional effects of nostalgia tourism on individuals could provide a more complete picture of its influence on the perception of cultural heritage and its potential for personal well-being. On the other hand, interdisciplinary research addressing the intersection of nostalgia tourism with emerging technology will also be valuable in understanding how new tools may shape and transform this form of travel in the future.

This form of tourism not only promotes the value of personal memory, but also contributes to the development of local communities, cultural preservation and revitalization of historical sites (Shi et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR60\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e). Its importance lies in offering travelers the opportunity to relive past eras, learn about the history of a place, and preserve traditions that might otherwise be lost to time (Chi \u0026amp; Chi, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR9\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022a\u003c/span\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOne of the positive axes of nostalgia tourism is its impact on the preservation of cultural heritage (Shiran et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR61\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e). By traveling to relive significant moments or visit historical sites, people contribute to keeping alive the history and cultural identity of a region (Prayag \u0026amp; Del Chiappa, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR53\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2023\u003c/span\u003e). This generates a sustained interest in the preservation of ancient buildings, monuments, traditions and customs that are part of a community's legacy (Akg\u0026uuml;n et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR3\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2020\u003c/span\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNostalgia tourism benefits economically the localities that promote it. The restoration and preservation of historical sites, as well as the offer of authentic experiences related to the past, attract tourists interested in immersing themselves in an enriching experience (Kim et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR34\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2019\u003c/span\u003e). Likewise, another relevant aspect is the positive emotional impact it has on people, by reliving memories and special moments, nostalgia tourism can generate a sense of emotional connection, well-being and gratitude (Cho et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR13\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2019\u003c/span\u003e). This connection with the past can be therapeutic for many people, giving them a sense of belonging, identity and cultural rootedness that contributes to their emotional and mental well-being (Lin et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR40\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022\u003c/span\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo understand the current state of the field, it is essential to identify and analyze the academic results published so far. However, the importance of the characteristics lies in their ability to connect people to their past, identity, and emotions (Oh \u0026amp; Kim, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR47\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2020\u003c/span\u003e). Understanding these features enables tourism researchers and professionals to design strategies that meet the demand of tourists seeking to relive historical, cultural, or personal moments (Chen et al., 2021; Cho et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR11\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e). In addition, these features can help preserve and promote cultural heritage, as well as revitalize tourism destinations that possess strong emotional and sentimental value for travelers (Kan et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR31\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022\u003c/span\u003e). Thus, the characteristics are based on the focus of the past, preservation of authenticity, focus on emotional and sentimental, memorable, and personal experiences (Cho et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR12\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2020\u003c/span\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe present research aims to identify and analyze the development of the field of nostalgia tourism through a comprehensive analysis of the scientific literature which is fundamental to understand the evolution, trends and contributions in this specific area. This approach allows us to trace a timeline that reveals the progression of ideas, theories and practices associated with nostalgia tourism over time. By systematically examining the existing literature, a broad and detailed perspective on the key issues addressed, emerging trends, as well as the identification of authors, journals and countries influential in the development of the field is achieved. This analysis not only provides a historical overview but can also reveal insights and areas for future research, making it an invaluable tool for academics, practitioners and policy makers interested in nostalgia tourism.\u003c/p\u003e \u003c/div\u003e \u003c/p\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"Sec2\" class=\"Section2\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003e1.1 Nostalgia Tourism\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eNostalgia tourism is a specialized form of tourism that focuses on the exploration and commemoration of historical events, sites and places related to significant events of the past (Cifci, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR15\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022\u003c/span\u003e; Stone et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR63\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e). Likewise, this type of tourism seeks to remember and reflect on events that have left a deep imprint on human history, whether positive or negative (Y. Kim et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR35\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e; Wang et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR67\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2020\u003c/span\u003e). Moreover, nostalgia tourism covers a wide range of topics, from commemorating tragedies such as the Holocaust or genocides to celebrating cultural and political achievements, such as the struggle for civil rights (Lai et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR39\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e; F.

In this way, it can include visits to museums, monuments, battlefields, historical sites, and places of cultural significance (Grimwood \u0026amp; Johnson, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR24\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022\u003c/span\u003e; Mora et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR44\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2023\u003c/span\u003e; Tabaeeian et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR64\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022\u003c/span\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNostalgia tourism was identified as a tool for sharing and repeating experiences (Kim et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR36\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022\u003c/span\u003e; Stavrianea \u0026amp; Kamenidou, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR62\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022\u003c/span\u003e). Therefore, memory tourism is not limited to viewing historical sites, but also seeks to foster reflection and education (Ding \u0026amp; Hung, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR17\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e; Mora et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR44\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2023\u003c/span\u003e; Wen et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR68\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022\u003c/span\u003e; Yu et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR73\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e). Therefore, by exploring historical events from a personal perspective, memory tourism visitors can develop greater empathy for the people who lived through those difficult times (Hosany et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR26\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e; Mora et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR42\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022\u003c/span\u003e; Peng et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR51\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e; Rasoolimanesh et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR57\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e). However, it is important that this type of tourism is managed in a sustainable manner to preserve the authenticity of historical sites and to ensure adequate respect for the memory of the events (Chi \u0026amp; Chi, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR10\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022b\u003c/span\u003e; Jang et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR30\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022\u003c/span\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis type of tourism often contributes to the preservation and conservation of the historical and cultural heritage of a place, as it increases awareness and interest in keeping the memory of past events alive (Hosseini et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR27\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e; Raimkulov et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR55\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e). Indeed, tourists can experience a wide range of emotions, from sadness and awe to empathy and reflection (Tiwari et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR65\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2022\u003c/span\u003e; Ye et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR70\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2020\u003c/span\u003e; Zhang et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR74\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2020\u003c/span\u003e). Also, it contributes to economic development and the preservation of historically significant sites, as it attracts visitors from around the world and encourages investment in cultural heritage conservation (Kim, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR33\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2020\u003c/span\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e \u003c/div\u003e"},{"header":"2 Results","content":"\u003ch2\u003e2.1 Annual scientific production\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe annual scientific production is a fundamental component in the bibliometric analysis through tools such as Bibliometrix (Agbo et al., \u003cspan class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2021\u003c/span\u003e).

Within this area, several determinants of nostalgia tourism can be identified, thus, this type of tourism not only involves a physical trip to past places, but also involves deeply rooted emotions and personal experiences. Historical sites, preservation of cultural traditions, ancient architecture and activities that evoke memories are key elements that will attract travelers in search of emotional and cultural reconnection. The importance of these determinants lies in their ability to preserve collective identity, transmit cultural legacies and foster a sense of belonging, allowing people to better understand their history and find meaning in their own lives through these nostalgic experiences.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"3 Methods","content":"\u003cp\u003eTo consolidate the bibliometric study and the systematic review (Novanee et al., 2023), the Scopus database and Science Direct were used following the PRISMA (Page et al., \u003cspan citationid=\"CR48\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2023\u003c/span\u003e) guidelines of the empirical studies found in the database including a total of 2,501 studies based on the theory of nostalgia tourism.

These determinants, which can range from emotional and psychological aspects to sociocultural and contextual factors, act as key drivers that guide the choice of destinations, activities and consumption patterns during these trips. Understanding these determinants not only allows the tourism industry to adapt strategies and offerings to the needs and desires of this segment of travelers, but also contributes to the development of more effective policies and the creation of more authentic and meaningful tourism experiences for those seeking to relive memories and connect with the past through nostalgia tourism.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe growing importance and significant impact it has on the tourism industry, as well as on the travelers' experience, has been evidenced.

In addition, in-depth analysis of the psychological and emotional effects of nostalgia tourism on individuals could provide a more complete picture of its influence on the perception of cultural heritage and its potential for personal well-being. On the other hand, interdisciplinary research addressing the intersection of nostalgia tourism with emerging technology will also be valuable in understanding how new tools may shape and transform this form of travel in the future.\u003c/p\u003e \u003c/div\u003e \u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"Declarations","content":"\u003cp\u003e \u003ch2\u003eEthical approval\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eNot applicable\u003c/p\u003e \u003c/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFunding\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eNot applicable\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAuthor Contribution\u003c/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll authors reviewed the manuscript\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAvailability of data and materials\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eNot applicable\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"References","content":"\u003col\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrice RA Jr, Curry N, Senior, McCann KE, Fielding JL, Abercrombie E.
