Charm and Bottom Quark Production Cross Sections Near Threshold
The cross sections for charm and bottom quark production in the threshold
region are discussed. We consider the effects of an all order resummation of
initial state soft-plus-virtual gluon radiation on the total cross sections
compared to the order results.Comment: 16 pages LaTeX, 5 figures, to be published in Z. Phys.

Microgravity: a Teacher's Guide with Activities, Secondary Level
This NASA Educational Publication is a teacher's guide that focuses on microgravity for the secondary level student. The introduction answers the question 'What is microgravity?', as well as describing gravity and creating microgravity. Following the introduction is a microgravity primer which covers such topics as the fluid state, combustion science, materials science, biotechnology, as well as microgravity and space flight. Seven different activities are described in the activities section and are written by authors prominent in the field. The concluding sections of the book include a glossary, microgravity references, and NASA educational resources
Life History and Laboratory Rearing of \u3ci\u3eCorythucha Juglandis\u3c/i\u3e (Hemiptera: Tingidae) With Descriptions of Immature Stages
The life history of Corythucha juglandis was investigated in Jackson and Alexander counties. Illinois. August 1981-December 1985 and the immature stages were described. The bug was also raised from egg to adult under controlled laboratory conditions. This apparently bivoltine species overwintered as adults that became active in late April-early May. began feeding on the undersides of black walnut leaflets, and reproduced shortly thereafter. The seasonal occurrence of the adults and subsequent immature stages is discussed. Adults were last observed in mid-October. C. juglandis was reared on black walnut leaflets under a 16L:8D photoperiod at ca. 23.9°C. The pre-ovipositional, ovipositionaL and post-ovipositional periods averaged 14.0, 50.3, and 11.9 days, respectively: average fecundity was 118.6. The incubation period, and 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th stadia averaged 16.4,4.3,3.8,4.2,4.6, and 6.7 days, respectively
