It was the purpose of this study to determine: (1) changes in student attitudes in (a) a calisthenics and basketball class and (b) a pre-activity warm up and basketball class; and (2) the relation— ship between attitude changes and changes in basketba . . .

My title might require a very few explanatory notes, as might some other aspects of this project. Its source is obvious to the small group of people who are likely to see it. Although the Twentieth Century is far from my favorite poetical period, I fe . . .

We present statistics on the research productivity of astro- nomical telescopes. These were compiled by finding papers in which new data were presented, noting which telescopes were used, and then counting the number of papers, number of pages, and ot . . .

We present a direct measurement of the width of the W boson using the shape of the transverse mass distribution of W -> e nu candidate events. Data from approximately 1 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity recorded at s=1.96 TeV by the D0 detector at the F . . .

In this paper we investigate wormhole and spherically symmetric solutions in four-dimensional gravity plus a matter source consisting of a ghost scalar field with a sine-Gordon potential. For the wormhole solutions we also include the possibility of e . . .

A measurement of the cross section for the production of an isolated photon in association with jets in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy root s = 7 TeV is presented. Photons are reconstructed in the pseudorapidity range vertical bar . . .

We have performed a search for neutral Higgs bosons produced in association with bottom quarks in p (p) over bar collisions, using 260 pb(-1) of data collected with the D0 detector in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The cross sections for th . . .

Each year we as citizens of the United States are faced with an ever increasing death toll on our highways. It was first thought that improving automobiles and improving highways would substantially reduce the number of traffic deaths. Because of the . . .

Participants from two different cultural backgrounds were assessed and compared on two dimensions of self-construal: closeness and self size relation. Data were collected from University students in Japan (N=86) and the United States (N=84), with a to . . .

To strengthen the economy of the Congo, investment in the agricultural sector was encouraged. Cooperatives were developed to market the agricultural output. Although crop conditions have been favorable for the development and profitability of Congoles . . .

Making a global phase symmetry local usually involves the introduction of a rank 1, vector field in the definition of the covariant derivative. In this paper we show how a symmetry can be gauged using fields of various ranks in the definition of the c . . .
