Comparing Psychological, Social, and Sexuality-Related Problems Reported by Bisexual and Gay Men: A Canadian Internet-Based Study

Les différences entre les hommes gais et les hommes bisexuels quant à leurs problématiques de santé méritent d\u27être mieux cernées. Dans le cadre d\u27une enquête en ligne pancanadienne, nous avons comparé des hommes bisexuels (n = 564) et gais (n = 1,109) à partir de 32 problèmes autoperçus d\u27ordre psychologique, social ou sexuel auxquels ils pouvaient avoir fait face au cours des 12 derniers mois. Les résultats indiquent que, par rapport aux hommes gais, les hommes bisexuels font face davantage aux problèmes touchant l\u27orientation ou l\u27identité sexuelle ou relatifs à certains comportements néfastes pour la santé, mais moins à plusieurs problèmes de santé mentale et à des problèmes liés aux ITS/VIH

PolarEx, a Future Facility for On-line Nuclear Orientation at ALTO Multipolarity Mixing Ratio Data Analysis

International audienceLow Temperature Nuclear Orientation (LTNO) experiments can probe magnetic properties of nuclei. The presence of PolarEx at the ALTO facility allows to perform these kind of on-line experiments with neutron rich beams. This paper presents the formalism of the LTNO technique and the set-up of PolarEx. It focuses on the analysis process for multipolarity mixing ratio extraction

Trial for the long neutron counter TETRA using 96,97Rb radioactive sources

The TETRA long neutron counter is operated at ALTO ISOL facility behind the PARRNe mass separator. TETRA has been proven to be a unique instrument for measurements of β-decay properties of short-lived neutron-rich nuclei having applications for the nuclear structure and/or astrophysical r-process calculations. A proper calibration of TETRA can allow validation of the experimental procedure used for determination of β-delayed one-neutron emission probabilities (P1n). It requires the use of a well-known β-neutron decaying radioactive source which can be only produced and measured on-line due to its short half-life. Thus, the present paper reports on measurements of P1n and T1/2 of 96,97Rb nuclei using TETRA . The results obtained are in a good agreement with the values available in the literature. This proves that the developed techniques can be applied to unknown P1n and T1/2 of neutron-rich species.peerReviewe
