A proposal to measure polarization in pp, pi- p and pi+ p elastic scattering at 50, 100, and 150 GeV/c at the National Accelerator Laboratory
The authors propose to measure the polarization parameter in pp, {pi}{sup -}p, and {pi}{sup +}p scattering at incident momenta of 50, 100, and 150 GeV/c over the range 0.15 {le} -t {le} 1.5 (GeV/c){sup 2}. The apparatus consists of a polarized proton target, two spectrometer arms which determine the angles and momenta of both outgoing particles, and an on-line computer. The detectors are designed to operate at incident beam rates of up to 10{sup 8} beam particles/pulse. They anticipate an error in the polarization parameter P of .005 {le} {Delta}P {le} .01 over the range .15 {le} -t {le} .8 (GeV/c){sup 2} in 100 shifts of data taking and background studies
Quasielastic axial-vector mass from experiments on neutrino-nucleus scattering
We analyze available experimental data on the total and differential
charged-current cross sections for quasielastic neutrino and antineutrino
scattering off nucleons, measured with a variety of nuclear targets in the
accelerator experiments at ANL, BNL, FNAL, CERN, and IHEP, dating from the end
of sixties to the present day. The data are used to adjust the poorly known
value of the axial-vector mass of the nucleon.Comment: 27 pages, 19 figures. Typos corrected; tables, figures and references

Understanding renal posttransplantation anemia in the pediatric population
Advances in renal transplantation management have proven to be beneficial in improving graft and patient survival. One of the properties of a well-functioning renal allograft is the secretion of adequate amounts of the hormone erythropoietin to stimulate erythropoiesis. Posttransplantation anemia (PTA) may occur at any point in time following transplantation, and the cause is multifactoral. Much of our understanding of PTA is based on studies of adult transplant recipients. The limited number of studies that have been reported on pediatric renal transplant patients appear to indicate that PTA is prevalent in this patient population. Erythropoietin deficiency or resistance is commonly associated with iron deficiency. An understanding of the risk factors, pathophysiology and management of PTA in the pediatric renal transplant population may provide guidelines for clinicians and researchers in the pursuit of larger prospective randomized control studies aimed at improving our limited knowledge of PTA. Recognition of PTA through regular screening and evaluation of the multiple factors that may contribute to its development are recommended after transplantation
