Journal of Adolescence, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Prior research indicates that social class is strongly associated with academic outcomes such as GPA. However, little work explores the role that social discrimination plays in this relation. This study examined the link between social class discrimination and academic outcomes among high school students.

Lepton-pair production in nuclear collisions - past, present, future [PDF]
, 2007 The key results on lepton-pair production in ultra-relativistic nuclear collisions are shortly reviewed, starting at the roots of pp collisions in the seventies, and ending at the perspectives of the colliders RHIC and LHC.

Unconventional resource evaluation and applied geophysics utilising LMR [PDF]
ASEG Extended Abstracts, 2015 Over the last decade the oil and gas industry has delivered conceptual and technical changes that have entirely changed the fundamentals of natural gas supply in North America. Underpinning the step change in natural gas reserves and market ready supplies has been the change in the perception of fine-grained, organic rich rocks (i.e.

A GPI-Based Critique of The Economic Profile of the Lower Mississippi River: an Update [PDF]
, 2015 The Genuine Progress Indicator, or GPI, is an alternative economic indicator that seeks to measure net economic welfare—the economic welfare that is gained by economic activity after the costs of producing that welfare (such as the costs of air pollution,

NA60 results on thermal dimuons [PDF]
, 2008 The NA60 experiment at the CERN SPS has measured muon pairs with unprecedented precision in 158A GeV In-In collisions. A strong excess of pairs above the known sources is observed in the whole mass region 0.21 GeV, the excess is found to be prompt, not ...

Predicting Different Recurrence Risk in HNSCC Using Circulating Inflammatory and T‐Cell Biomarkers
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) lacks reliable prognostic circulating biomarkers, and the role of the immune system in its progression remains incompletely understood. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of systemic inflammatory and immune biomarkers in surgically treated patients with primary oral cavity (

Thermal Dileptons from Hot and Dense Strongly Interacting Matter
, 2010 The NA60 experiment at the CERN SPS has studied muon-pair production in 158A GeV In-In collisions. The unprecedented precision of the data has allowed to isolate a strong excess of pairs above the known sources in the whole invariant mass region 0.21 GeV,

Oikos, EarlyView.Accurate functional trait data are essential for understanding ecosystem services and processes in fragmented landscapes. We evaluated whether the global EltonTraits 1.0 database adequately represents the functional structure of mammal communities in forest fragments and restoration sites in a highly fragmented Atlantic Forest landscape.

c-axis magnetotransport in CeCoIn$_{5}$
, 2005 We present the results of out-of-plane electrical transport measurements on the heavy fermion superconductor CeCoIn$_{5}$ at temperatures from 40 mK to 400 K and in magnetic field up to 9 T. For $T $ B$_{c2}$ restores Fermi-liquid behavior in $\rho_{c}(T)
