Radiative corrections to the three-body region of the Dalitz plot of baryon semileptonic decays with angular correlation between polarized emitted baryons and charged leptons: The initial-baryon rest frame case

We complement the results for the radiative corrections to the s2.l angular correlation of baryon semileptonic decays of Ref. [1] with the final results in the rest frame of the decaying baryon.Comment: 7 pages, Revtex4, no figure

Asset accumulation strategies in 3 new settlement Missouri communities

"'Recent developments in the cultural identity literature can help us to move beyond a deficits approach to viewing culture not an obstacle but as a resource from which individuals draw to create strategies to function in various domains in society (Berry 2003). This approach shifts our attention to looking at what the newcomers offer and leads us to ponder how we can engage them in the future development and prosperity of the new settlement communities.'

Developing Social Capitals Latino Immigrants in Three Rural Missouri Communities

Presentation made at Latinos in the Heartland (8th : 2010 : St. Louis, Mo.) and published in the annual conference proceedings.The current study employs the sustainable livelihoods strategies model to examine the integration process in three rural communities in Missouri. Community development specialists and rural economists have widely used SLSM, which has evolved since original development in the 1980s. The framework represents the relations among several variables (e.g., human capital, social capital, economic capital) to explain people's livelihoods. This presentation will focus on the development of social capitals among Latino newcomers. Participants were Latino adults, 24 men and 26 women, who resided in one of three rural communities in different areas of the state. Focus groups interviews in Spanish were conducted with males and females separately in each community. The presentation will describe the categories that emerged from the analyses related to the process by which Latino newcomers build relationships within the community. Specifically, we highlight the common venues for developing relationships and accessing resources within the community. Implication of the findings for community building will be discussed

Perceptions of Community Climate Among Latino Immigrants in Three Rural Communities in the Midwest

Presentation made at Latinos in the Heartland (8th : 2010 : St. Louis, Mo.) and published in the annual conference proceedings.The current study is part of a large-scale project that is examining the strategies that newcomers use to accumulate assets, minimize vulnerabilities, and to integrate into their communities. Using focus group data, this presentation will focus on the context of reception experienced by these newcomers in the communities where they settled. Participants were Latino adults (n = 50; 24 men, 26 women) who resided in one of three rural communities in different areas of the state. Focus groups interviews in Spanish were conducted with males and females separately in each community. The presentation will describe the following themes: perceptions of the community climate and experiences with racism. The appeal of the host community and the community reception will be described, and participants? experiences with overt and covert racism will be highlighted. Implication of the findings for interventions and improving the context of reception for newcomers will be discussed
