An assessment system for rating scientific journals in the field of ergonomics and human factors
A method for selecting and rating scientific and professional journals representing the discipline of ergonomics and human factors is proposed. The method is based upon the journal list, impact factors and citations provided by the Institute of Scientific Information (ISI), and the journal list published in the Ergonomics Abstracts. Three groups of journals were distinguished. The "ergonomics journals" focus exclusively on ergonomics or human factors. The "related journals" focus on other disciplines than ergonomics or human factors, but regularly publish ergonomics/human factors papers. The "basic journals" focus on other technical, medical or social sciences than ergonomics, but are important for the development of ergonomics/human factors. Journal quality was rated using a maximum of four categories: top quality (A-level), high quality (B-level), good quality (C-level)) and professional (P-level). The above methods were applied to develop journal ratings for the year 2003. A total of 24 'ergonomics journals', 58 'related journals' and 142 'basic journals' were classified.impact factor;rating;scientific journals

Spin-Correlation Coefficients and Phase-Shift Analysis for p+He Elastic Scattering
Angular Distributions for the target spin-dependent observables A,
A, and A have been measured using polarized proton beams at
several energies between 2 and 6 MeV and a spin-exchange optical pumping
polarized He target. These measurements have been included in a global
phase-shift analysis following that of George and Knutson, who reported two
best-fit phase-shift solutions to the previous global p+He elastic
scattering database below 12 MeV. These new measurements, along with
measurements of cross-section and beam-analyzing power made over a similar
energy range by Fisher \textit{et al.}, allowed a single, unique solution to be
obtained. The new measurements and phase-shifts are compared with theoretical
calculations using realistic nucleon-nucleon potential models.Comment: Submitted to Phys. Rev.

Low-energy p-d Scattering: High Precision Data, Comparisons with Theory, and Phase-Shift Analyses
Angular distributions of sigma(theta), A_y, iT_11, T_20, T_21, and T_22 have
been measured for d-p scattering at E_c.m.=667 keV. This set of high-precision
data is compared to variational calculations with the nucleon-nucleon potential
alone and also to calculations including a three-nucleon (3N) potential.
Agreement with cross-section and tensor analyzing power data is excellent when
a 3N potential is used. However, a comparison between the vector analyzing
powers reveals differences of approximately 40% in the maxima of the angular
distributions which is larger than reported at higher energies for both p-d and
n-d scattering. Single-energy phase-shift analyses were performed on this data
set and a similar data set at E_c.m.=431.3 keV. The role of the different
phase-shift parameters in fitting these data is discussed.Comment: 18 pages, 6 figure
