Nuclear physics experiments employing polarized beams and targets continue to open new territory in our exploration of the NN interaction and few nucleon systems. I will describe three measurements of spin correlation coef-cients at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility that promise to have a major impact in several areas of investigation in the medium energy regime, including meson-exchang...

on the environment, including changes to land, atmosphere and oceans, but it was also the time when human activity became globalised. This led to a whole range of new global problems, from the destruction of atmospheric ozone through to accumulation of marine litter, climate change, ocean acidifi cation, and more. These global changes would already ensure that geologists of the future would fi ...

Using gauge/gravity duality, we explore a class of states of two CFTs with a large degree of entanglement, but with very weak local two-sided correlation. These states are constructed by perturbing the thermofield double state with thermal-scale operators that are local at different times. Acting on the dual black hole geometry, these perturbations create an intersecting network of shock waves,...

purchased. Too often, this leads to the decision to use the chemicals ‘just in case’ even when their application may cause more harm than good. Alternatives that could be used as part of an IPM strategy include crop rotation and diversity, inter-row planting, management of planting schedules, tillage and irrigation according to the minimisation of pest dangers, and biological strategies, such a...

During high school, Stephen M. Beverley attended a Science Day event at the California Institute of Technology. As he explored research laboratories, he felt that the entire world of science was open to him. “It just seemed like a candy shop,” he says. Beverley’s inquisitive pursuit of scientific truth has led him to study the factors that make the parasite Leishmania a devastating human scourg...
