description: Introduction : La majorité des étudiants de la filière physiothérapie de HESAV a une pratique sportive importante. Lorsqu’ils débutent leurs études, ces étudiants présentent donc un rapport au corps adapté à leur pratique sportive. Les études de physiothérapie sont susceptibles de modifier ce rapport au corps, défini ici comme un ensemble de dispositions résultant d’un processus de socialisation. Objectif : Dans une perspective sociologique, ce travail vise à répondre à la question de recherche suivante : En quoi les études de physiothérapie contribuent-elles à modifier le rapport au corps des étudiants qui font du sport de compétition ? Méthodologie : Pour y répondre, quatre entretiens semi-directifs ont été menés et différentes dimensions du rapport au corps y sont appréhendées dans une perspective à la fois synchronique et diachronique. Une analyse thématique a ensuite été réalisée. Résultats : L’analyse transversale des entretiens révèle un rapport au corps de type instrumental chez les étudiants, avec un fort volontarisme face aux blessures et une certaine résistance à la douleur. Constitué de dispositions primaires acquises durant l’enfance, ce rapport au corps n’évolue que faiblement durant les études de physiothérapie. Les étudiants tendent même à retraduire certains savoir enseignés conformément à leur rapport au corps instrumental, parfois au détriment de leur santé. Conclusion : Ces résultats permettent de mener une réflexion quant à la position que devraient adopter les physiothérapeutes – et en particulier ceux qui travaillent dans le monde du sport : sont-ils condamnés à contribuer au renforcement du rapport au corps de type instrumental chez les athlètes ?

description: X-ray observations provide a potentially powerful tool to study starburst feedback. The analysis and interpretation of such observations remain challenging, however, due to various complications, including the non-isothermality of the diffuse hot plasma and the inhomogeneity of the foreground absorption. We here illustrate such complications and a way to mitigate their effects by presenting an X-ray spectroscopy of the 30 Doradus nebula in the Large Magellanic Clouds, based on a 100 ks Suzaku observation. We measure the thermal and chemical properties of the hot plasma and quantitatively confront them with the feedback expected from embedded massive stars. We find that our spatially resolved measurements can be well reproduced by a global modeling of the nebula with a log-normal temperature distribution of the plasma emission measure and a log-normal foreground absorption distribution. The metal abundances and total mass of the plasma are consistent with the chemically enriched mass ejection expected from the central OB association and a ~55% mass-loading from the ambient medium. The total thermal energy of the plasma is smaller than what is expected from a simple superbubble model, demonstrating that important channels of energy loss are not accounted for. Our analysis indeed shows tentative evidence for a diffuse non-thermal X-ray component, indicating that cosmic-ray acceleration needs to be considered in such a young starburst region. Finally, we suggest that the log-normal modeling may be suitable for the X-ray spectral analysis of other giant HII regions, especially when spatially resolved spectroscopy is not practical.

description: We analyze the timing of photons observed by the MAGIC telescope during a flare of the active galactic nucleus Mkn 501 for a possible correlation with energy, as suggested by some models of quantum gravity (QG), which predict a vacuum refractive index \simeq 1 + (E/M_{QGn})^n, n = 1,2. Parametrizing the delay between gamma-rays of different energies as Δt =\pmτ_l E or Δt =\pmτ_q E^2, we find τ_l=(0.030\pm0.012) s/GeV at the 2.5-sigma level, and τ_q=(3.71\pm2.57)x10^{-6} s/GeV^2, respectively. We use these results to establish lower limits M_{QG1} > 0.21x10^{18} GeV and M_{QG2} > 0.26x10^{11} GeV at the 95% C.L. Monte Carlo studies confirm the MAGIC sensitivity to propagation effects at these levels. Thermal plasma effects in the source are negligible, but we cannot exclude the importance of some other source effect.

description: We report first-principles calculations of the structural and vibrational properties of the synthesized two-dimensional van der Waals heterostructures formed by single-layers dichalcogenides MoSe2 and WSe2. We show that, when combining these systems in a periodic two-dimensional heterostructures, the intrinsic phonon characteristics of the free-standing constituents are to a large extent preserved but, furthermore, exhibit shear and breathing phonon modes that are not present in the individual building blocks. These peculiar modes depend strongly on the weak vdW forces and has a great contibution to the thermal properties of the layered materials. Besides these features, the departure of flexural modes of heterobilayer from the ones of its monolayer parents are also found.

description: We have developed a device fabrication process to pattern graphene into nanostructures of arbitrary shape and control their electronic properties using local electrostatic gates. Electronic transport measurements have been used to characterize locally gated bipolar graphene $p$-$n$-$p$ junctions. We observe a series of fractional quantum Hall conductance plateaus at high magnetic fields as the local charge density is varied in the $p$ and $n$ regions. These fractional plateaus, originating from chiral edge states equilibration at the $p$-$n$ interfaces, exhibit sensitivity to inter-edge backscattering which is found to be strong for some of the plateuas and much weaker for other plateaus. We use this effect to explore the role of backscattering and estimate disorder strength in our graphene devices.

description: Lake Orhid, located at the border between Albania and the Former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), is a lake of outmost ecological importance because of their unique geological and ecological characteristics. It is a hotspot of freshwater biodiversity, it is the habitat for more than 210 endemic species of high economical and cultural value, and it provides many diverse and valuable Ecosystem Services (ESS), as sustainable tourism, food production and supply of freshwater. Among these, the provision of habitat for iconic species is a characteristic ESS. The dynamic of its supporting functions is object of study in the H2020 project ECOPOTENTIAL, that developed a framework, based on the DPSIR approach, for applying the ESS concept for improving the management of Protected Areas (PA). In this study, the evaluation the impact of eutrophication on the survival of the Salmo letnica, an iconic species of the lake, is studied through a simple ecological model.

In this paper we review how the Tevatron experiments CDF and D0 utilize MC simulations for top quark analyses. We describe the standard MC generators used to simulate top quark pair and single top quark production, followed by a discussion of methods to extract systematic uncertainties of top physics results related to the MC generator choice. The paper also shows the special MC requirements for some example top properties measurements at the Tevatron.

description: Within the H2020 ECOPOTENTIAL project, started in 2015, a framework has been developed for applying the ESS concept for improving the management of Protected Areas (PA). Based on the DPSIR approach, storylines have been developed for the most relevant ecosystems in each PA, identifying the critical ecosystem processes, their control factors, threats, drivers/pressures, the state of the environment and the responses, thus contextualizing the workflow of ECOPOTENTIAL in particular ecological, management and policy settings. In the context of the project, Earth Observation data, including in–situ and Remote Sensing (RS) necessary for building an appropriate set of indicators have been identified. One of the targeted PA in ECOPOTENTIAL is the region of Lakes Orhid and Prespa, which extends across Greece, Albania and the FYRof Macedonia, the latter ones aiming to join the European Union. Both lakes are of outmost importance because of their unique geological and ecological characteristics. Lake Orhid, in particular, is a hotspot of freshwater biodiversity, it is the habitat for more than 210 endemic species of high economical and cultural value, and it provides many diverse and valuable ESS, as sustainable tourism, food production and supply of freshwater. Nevertheless, the importance of preserving the ecosystem has never been evaluated before using the ESS approach, while non-market approaches useful for assessing the value of ESS have been identified (Zdraveski et al., 2015). In this presentation, we describe the ECOPOTENTIAL approach for evaluating the link between the biophysical characteristics of the lake and the provision of ESS, illustrating it on selected ESS, and how this tool, based on a causal mapping of the inter-correlations among in situ and RS data, indicators, determinants and ESS, can be a valuable instrument for informing the decision makers for better management of the lake and the preservation of its unique biodiversity and ecosystem services.

description: R Aqr is one of the closest symbiotic binaries and the only D-type system with radial velocity data suitable for orbital parameters estimation. The aims of our study are to derive a reliable spectroscopic orbit of the Mira component, and to establish connections between the orbital motion and other phenomena shown by R Aqr. We reanalize velocity data recently published by McIntosh & Rustan complemented by additional velocities. We find an eccentric orbit (e=0.25) with a period 43.6 yr. This solution is in agreement with a resolved VLA observation of this system. We demonstrate that the last 1974-1981 increase of extinction towards the Mira occured during its superior spectroscopic conjunction, and can be due to obscuration by a neutral material in the accreting stream. We also show that jet ejection is not connected with the orbital position.

description: Atomic carbon (CI) has been proposed to be a global tracer of the molecular gas as a substitute for CO, however, its utility remains unproven. To evaluate the suitability of CI as the tracer, we performed [CI]$(^3P_1-^3P_0)$ (hereinafter [CI](1-0)) mapping observations of the northern part of the nearby spiral galaxy M83 with the ASTE telescope and compared the distributions of [CI](1-0) with CO lines (CO(1-0), CO(3-2), and $^{13}$CO(1-0)), HI, and infrared (IR) emission (70, 160, and 250$ μ$m). The [CI](1-0) distribution in the central region is similar to that of the CO lines, whereas [CI](1-0) in the arm region is distributed outside the CO. We examined the dust temperature, $T_{\rm dust}$, and dust mass surface density, $Σ_{\rm dust}$, by fitting the IR continuum-spectrum distribution with a single-temperature modified blackbody. The distribution of $Σ_{\rm dust}$ shows a much better consistency with the integrated intensity of CO(1-0) than with that of [CI](1-0), indicating that CO(1-0) is a good tracer of the cold molecular gas. The spatial distribution of the [CI] excitation temperature, $T_{\rm ex}$, was examined using the intensity ratio of the two [CI] transitions. An appropriate $T_{\rm ex}$ at the central, bar, arm, and inter-arm regions yields a constant [C]/[H$_2$] abundance ratio of $\sim7 \times 10^{-5}$ within a range of 0.1 dex in all regions. We successfully detected weak [CI](1-0) emission, even in the inter-arm region, in addition to the central, arm, and bar regions, using spectral stacking analysis. The stacked intensity of [CI](1-0) is found to be strongly correlated with $T_{\rm dust}$. Our results indicate that the atomic carbon is a photodissociation product of CO, and consequently, compared to CO(1-0), [CI](1-0) is less reliable in tracing the bulk of "cold" molecular gas in the galactic disk.

description: Sustainable development demands for an enhanced-evidence-and science-based policy and management of the environment. The ECOPOTENTIAL way to address the issue is to improve the capability of monitoring and modelling the ecosystems and ecosystem services by starting from Protected Areas. The PAs thus act as open labs for building the necessary knowledge base to face the challenge of global change. A major asset of the ECOPOTENTIAL's approach to enhance predictive capacity of the state and temporal evolution of ecosystems is to focus on the integration of modelling techniques with EO data, both remote and in-field. The goal is to improve our knowledge on ecosystem nonlinearity, complexity and uncertainties and to predict ecosystem changes in key PAs. ECOPOTENTIAL develops and applies a range of EO-data based conceptual, correlative and process-based models on mountains, arid and coastal/ marine ecosystems and prototypes online data services for ecosystem indicators and potential supply of ecosystem services using data-assimilation. The poster showcases a few examples.

description: The Kepler-1647 is a binary system with two Sun-type stars (approximately 1.22 and 0.97 Solar mass). It has the most massive circumbinary planet (1.52 Jupiter mass) with the longest orbital period (1,107.6 days) detected by the Kepler probe and is located within the habitable zone (HZ) of the system. In this work, we investigated the ability to form and house an Earth-sized planet within its HZ. First, we computed the limits of its HZ and performed numerical stability tests within that region. We found that HZ has three sub-regions that show stability, one internal, one co-orbital, and external to the host planet Kepler-1647b. Within the limits of these three regions, we performed numerical simulations of planetary formation. In the regions inner and outer to the planet, we used two different density profiles to explore different conditions of formation. In the co-orbital region, we used eight different values of total disc mass. We showed that many resonances are located within regions causing much of the disc material to be ejected before a planet is formed. Thus, the system might have two asteroid belts with Kirkwood gaps, similar to the Solar Systemś main belt of asteroids. The co-orbital region proved to be extremely sensitive, not allowing the planet formation, but showing that this binary system has the capacity to have Trojan bodies. Finally, we looked for regions of stability for an Earth-sized moon. We found that there is stability for a moon with this mass up to 0.4 Hillś radius from the host planet.

description: We study the global dynamics of the universe within the framework of the Interacting Dark Matter (IDM) scenario. Assuming that the dark matter obeys the collisional Boltzmann equation, we can derive analytical solutions of the global density evolution, which can accommodate an accelerated expansion, equivalent to either the {\em quintessence} or the standard $Λ$ models, with the present time located after the inflection point. This is possible if there is a disequilibrium between the DM particle creation and annihilation processes with the former process dominating, which creates an effective source term with negative pressure. Comparing the predicted Hubble expansion of one of the IDM models (the simplest) with observational data we find that the effective annihilation term is quite small, as suggested by a variety of other recent experiments.

description: We study the resonant transmission of light in a coupled-resonator optical waveguide interacting with two nearly identical side cavities. We reveal and describe a novel effect of the coupled-resonator-induced reflection (CRIR) characterized by a very high and easily tunable quality factor of the reflection line, for the case of the inter-site coupling between the cavities and the waveguide. This effect differs sharply from the coupled-resonator-induced transparency (CRIT) -- an all-optical analogue of the electromagnetically-induced transparency -- which has recently been studied theoretically and observed experimentally for the structures based on micro-ring resonators and photonic crystal cavities. Both CRIR and CRIT effects have the same physical origin which can be attributed to the Fano-Feshbach resonances in the systems exhibiting more than one resonance. We discuss the applicability of the novel CRIR effect to the control of the slow-light propagation and low-threshold all-optical switching.

description: Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a widely used non-invasive biomedical imaging modality that can rapidly provide volumetric images of samples. Here, we present a deep learning-based image reconstruction framework that can generate swept-source OCT (SS-OCT) images using undersampled spectral data, without any spatial aliasing artifacts. This neural network-based image reconstruction does not require any hardware changes to the optical set-up and can be easily integrated with existing swept-source or spectral domain OCT systems to reduce the amount of raw spectral data to be acquired. To show the efficacy of this framework, we trained and blindly tested a deep neural network using mouse embryo samples imaged by an SS-OCT system. Using 2-fold undersampled spectral data (i.e., 640 spectral points per A-line), the trained neural network can blindly reconstruct 512 A-lines in ~6.73 ms using a desktop computer, removing spatial aliasing artifacts due to spectral undersampling, also presenting a very good match to the images of the same samples, reconstructed using the full spectral OCT data (i.e., 1280 spectral points per A-line). We also successfully demonstrate that this framework can be further extended to process 3x undersampled spectral data per A-line, with some performance degradation in the reconstructed image quality compared to 2x spectral undersampling. This deep learning-enabled image reconstruction approach can be broadly used in various forms of spectral domain OCT systems, helping to increase their imaging speed without sacrificing image resolution and signal-to-noise ratio.

description: Ferromagnetic (FM) manganites, a group of likely half-metallic oxides, are of special interest not only because they are a testing ground of the classical doubleexchange interaction mechanism for the colossal magnetoresistance, but also because they exhibit an extraordinary arena of emergent phenomena. These emergent phenomena are related to the complexity associated with strong interplay between charge, spin, orbital, and lattice. In this review, we focus on the use of inelastic neutron scattering to study the spin dynamics, mainly the magnon excitations in this class of FM metallic materials. In particular, we discussed the unusual magnon softening and damping near the Brillouin zone boundary in relatively narrow band compounds with strong Jahn-Teller lattice distortion and charge/orbital correlations. The anomalous behaviors of magnons in these compounds indicate the likelihood of cooperative excitations involving spin, lattice, as well as orbital degrees of freedom.

This is a confirmation for the theoretical predictions of the existence of a stellar population at high redshifts and its subsequent evolution corresponding to the population of giant elliptical galaxies.

description: The experimental data presented in this thesis demonstrates the preparation and characterization of TiO₂ polymorphs (anatase and TiO₂-(B)) in the form of nanomaterials. The reduced dimension of the nanomaterials amplifies the properties compared to the bulk TiO₂; however, this is often at the cost of the tapped density. The anatase nanomaterials with pseudo-spherical nanoparticles of 5 to 70 nm in size were synthesized and their volumetric capacities compared. Both the gravimetric and volumetric capacity is higher for nanoparticles of less than 10 nm in diameter. The volumetric capacity is also dependent on the agglomerate size. For example at the very lowest rate of 50 mA/g, the agglomerate larger than 50 μm leads to the highest volumetric capacity; while at a rate higher than 600 mA/g the smaller agglomerates are preferred. Following this, we reported the synthesis of mesoporous TiO₂-(B) with the particle size along the [010] direction ranged from 3 to 300 nm, and the pore size increasing from 2.5 to more than 20 nm. By comparing the volumetric capacity of these TiO₂-(B) mesoporous materials, the optimal morphology for an improved volumetric capacity was identified. TiO₂-(B) with a novel microstructure was synthesized via a hydrothermal reaction. The primary particles are brick-like in shape with the shorter dimensions (4 - 10 nm) in parallel to the [100] and [010] directions, facilitating the Li⁺ ion diffusion in the particle. This TiO₂-(B) offers a superior rate capability compared to many other titanate anodes reported in the literature. In addition, it exhibits a great cycleability due to its exceptional structural stability and minimal SEI layer. Surface treatments could reduce its first cycle irreversible capacity to ~10%.

description: We predict $σ_{p{-}\rm air}^{\rm prod}$, the proton--air inelastic production cross section, at $pp$ center-of-mass energies $2\le\sqrt s \le 100000$ TeV, using high energy predictions from a saturated Froissart bound parameterization of accelerator data on forward $\bar pp$ and $pp$ scattering amplitudes, together with Glauber theory. The parameterization of the $\bar pp$ and $pp$ cross sections incorporates analyticity constraints and unitarity, allowing accurate extrapolations to ultra-high energies. Our predictions are in excellent agreement with cosmic ray extensive air shower measurements, both in magnitude and in energy dependence

description: States often refuse to enforce foreign court judgments relying on immunities guaranteed to each country by the UN Charter. However, when it comes to violations of jus cogens, a relevant question arises: can a state hide behind its own immunities, in the face of a blatant violation of international law?
The question applys very well to the situation on the territory of Ukraine.
The purpose of the article is to analyze the issue of sovereign immunities of states and current issues related to the deprivation of such immunities.
In addition, the relevance of this issue on the example of the war in Ukraine will be examined. The four measures that the international community should take to punish the aggressor and prevent acts of aggression in the future, whether by Russia or any other state, will be suggested.

description: STUDY DESIGN: To compare arterial inflammation (AI) between people living with HIV (PLWH) and uninfected people as assessed by 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET). METHODS: We prospectively enrolled 20 PLWH and 20 uninfected people with no known cardiovascular disease and at least 3 traditional cardiovascular risk factors. All patients underwent 18F-FDG-PET/computed tomography (CT) of the thorax and neck. Biomarkers linked to inflammation and atherosclerosis were also determined. The primary outcome was AI in ascending aorta (AA) measured as mean maximum target-to-background ratio (TBRmax). The independent relationships between HIV status and both TBRmax and biomarkers were evaluated by multivariable linear regression adjusted for body mass index, creatinine, statin therapy, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular 10-year estimated risk (ASCVD). RESULTS: Unadjusted mean TBRmax in AA was slightly higher but not statistically different (P = .18) in PLWH (2.07; IQR 1.97, 2.32]) than uninfected people (2.01; IQR 1.85, 2.16]). On multivariable analysis, PLWH had an independent risk of increased mean log-TBRmax in AA (coef = 0.12; 95%CI 0.01,0.22; P = .032). HIV infection was independently associated with higher values of interleukin-10 (coef = 0.83; 95%CI 0.34, 1.32; P = .001), interferon-γ (coef. = 0.90; 95%CI 0.32, 1.47; P = .003), and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) (coef. = 0.75; 95%CI: 0.42, 1.08, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with high cardiovascular risk, HIV status was an independent predictor of increased TBRmax in AA. PLWH also had an increased independent risk of IFN-γ, IL-10, and VCAM-1 levels.

description: In this article, we assume that there exists a scalar hidden charm tetraquark state in the $π^+ χ_{c1}$ invariant mass distribution, and study its mass using the QCD sum rules. The numerical result $M_{Z}=(4.36\pm0.18) \rm{GeV}$ is consistent with the mass of the Z(4250). The Z(4250) may be a tetraquark state, other possibilities, such as a hadro-charmonium resonance and a $D_1^+\bar{D}^0+ D^+\bar{D}_1^0$ molecular state are not excluded.

description: The research in biology as a whole faces great challenges when it comes to an extensive and detailed comprehension of the molecular interactions and complex mechanisms within living systems. To image and understand such systems extends across multiple approaches at mixed scales down to chemical imaging of compartmentalized environments. Biological systems present an intricate architectural organization, where the structural disposition of the macromolecules, their individual functions and interactions within the cellular systems, and the effects on the entire organisms need to be explored. The integration of the multiple information coming from disparate techniques arises as a key organizational step in modern biology research, calling for the implementation of shared scientific platforms. Taking this in consideration, I intend to present what are the possibilities for integrated biology at modern research facilities by taking advantage fo state-of- the-art instrumentations combined to the latest developments in artificial intelligence and the finest molecular dynamics projects dedicated to the field of protein structure prediction. Notably, I will attempt to highlight the opportunities that lie behind novel sample preparation methods, among which the capacity of cells to grow crystals of unmodified proteins, and how to handle these cells for experimenting at various instruments and for gaining information at different scales.

description: Three-dimensional (3D) multi-cellular aggregates hold important applications in tissue engineering and in vitro biological modeling. Probing the intrinsic forces generated during the aggregation process, could open up new possibilities in advancing the discovery of tissue mechanics-based biomarkers. We use individually suspended, and tethered gelatin hydrogel microfibers to guide multicellular aggregation of brain cancer cells (glioblastoma cell line, U87), forming characteristic cancer 'ellipsoids'. Over a culture period of up to 13 days, U87 aggregates evolve from a flexible cell string with cell coverage following the relaxed and curly fiber contour; to a distinct ellipsoid-on-string morphology, where the fiber segment connecting the ellipsoid poles become taut. Fluorescence imaging revealed the fiber segment embedded within the ellipsoidal aggregate to exhibit a morphological transition analogous to filament buckling under a compressive force. By treating the multicellular aggregate as an effective elastic medium where the microfiber is embedded, we applied a filament post-buckling theory to model the fiber morphology, deducing the apparent elasticity of the cancer ellipsoid medium, as well as the collective traction force inherent in the aggregation process.

description: Статья посвящена теоретическим и практическим вопросам, связанным с правовыми формами цифровой валюты. Представлена правовая характеристика цифровой валюты, цифрового рубля и криптовалюты как объектов уголовно-правовой охраны, входящих в цифровую часть денежного оборота. В статье рассмотрены проблемы правового регулирования цифровой валюты в Российской Федерации, предпринята попытка комплексного исследования ее правовой природы. Сформирован и обоснован вывод, что в настоящее время цифровая валюта может выступать и в качестве средства, и в качестве предмета совершения преступлений – как иное имущество. Цифровая валюта (цифровой рубль) не родовая вещь, а индивидуально-определенная, что, безусловно, отразится на формировании уголовно-правового инструментария, требующего оперативного вмешательства при противоправном обращении с цифровой валютой, цифровыми деньгами. В ходе проведенного исследования выявлены и проанализированы отдельные характеристики новой формы платежа, предложены дальнейшие разработки мер по законодательному регулированию соответствующих сделок.
description: The article is devoted to theoretical and practical issues related to the legal forms of digital currency. The legal characteristics of digital currency, digital ruble, and cryptocurrency as objects of criminal law protection included in the digital part of monetary circulation are presented. The article discusses the problems of legal regulation of digital currency in the Russian Federation. An attempt is made to comprehensively study its legal nature. The conclusion is formed and substantiated that at present the digital currency can act both as a means and as an object of committing crimes (as other property). Digital ruble as a digital currency is not a generic thing, but an individually defined one, which, of course, will affect the formation of criminal legal instruments that require prompt intervention in the illegal handling of digital currency. In the course of the study, the author identified and analyzed individual characteristics of the new form of payment, and proposed further development of measures for the legislative regulation of relevant transactions.

description: Little is currently known about what factors influence a victim's willingness to report hazing experienced in higher education. This problem of hazing has largely been ignored by criminologists, despite anti-hazing statutes existing in many states. The present study aims to examine this problem through a criminological lens using Social Bonding Theory (SBT). SBT suggests that deviant behavior is more likely to occur when a person is poorly bonded to conventional society (Hirschi, 1969). This theory was originally intended to explain deviant behavior; however, this study investigates its utility in explaining reporting behavior of victimization. Data were collected from surveys administered at the University of Maryland (N = 56), utilizing vignettes to present hypothetical hazing situations and were analyzed using logistic regression. Results provide no support for the use of SBT to predict a student's willingness to report experienced hazing, as described in the vignettes. Limitations and implications are discussed.

description: We show that the enhancement of the saturation scale in large nuclei relative to the proton is significantly influenced by the effects of quantum evolution and the impact parameter dependence of dipole cross sections in high energy QCD. We demonstrate that there is a strong A dependence in diffractive deeply inelastic scattering and discuss its sensitivity to the measurement of the recoil nucleus.
