Conservation challenges and opportunities for native apple (Malus) species in Canada
Apple, one of the world's most widely cultivated and economically important fruit crops, has two wild relatives native to Canada. In this review, we describe the importance of these native apple species to Indigenous heritage and the current threats the species faces due to pests, diseases, and habitat loss.

Study of the production mechanism of the eta meson by means of analysing power measurements
Information about the production mechanism of the eta meson in proton-proton collisions can be inferred by confronting the experimental studies on the analysing power for the p(pol)p --> pp eta reaction with the theoretical predictions of this observable.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Decomposition is the transformation of dead organic matter into its inorganic constituents. In most biomes, decomposition rates can be accurately predicted with simple mathematical models, but these models have long under‐predicted decomposition in globally extensive ...

Meson-Meson Scattering in Lattice QED_2+1
Scattering phase shifts of a meson-meson system in staggered 3-dimensional lattice QED are computed. The main task of the simulation is to obtain a discrete set of two-body energy levels.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Rising drought frequency and intensity are placing many tree species at increasing risk of mortality. Identifying which trees are most sensitive to drought is critical for biodiversity conservation and forest carbon storage; however, this is challenging in natural and ...

Production of Eta Mesons in Proton-Proton Collisions Close to Threshold
A brief experimental overview on the close-to-threshold eta meson production in proton-proton interactions is presented and the available observables in measurements with unpolarized and polarized beam and target are discussed.Comment: 4 pages; Presented

Intrinsic operators for the electromagnetic nuclear current [PDF]
The intrinsic electromagnetic nuclear meson exchange charge and current operators arising from a separation of the center-of-mass motion are derived for a one-boson-exchange model for the nuclear interaction with scalar, pseudoscalar and vector meson ...

It is shown that in the framework of analytical confinement, when quark and gluon propagators are induced by an vacuum selfdual gluon field with constant strength, the masses of meson with quantum numbers $Q=J^P$ and quark constituents $m_1,~m_2$ are described with reasonable accuracy by the formula $$ M_Q(m_1,m_2)=(m_1+m_2)[1+{A_Q\over (m_1^2+1 ...

International Biological Flora: Tsuga canadensis*
Eastern Hemlock is a long‐lived forest tree of eastern North America known for its deep shade and home given to many organisms. Despite surviving large‐scale clearing for agriculture when Europeans arrived, it returned to dominate when the land was abandoned in the mid 1800s.

We reanalyze the decay constants of s-wave and p-wave mesons and D, B ->M form factors, where M represents a pseudoscalar meson, a vector meson, a scalar meson, or an axial vector meson within a covariant light-front quark model.
