Troop Support
A care package is one of the most anticipated – and appreciated – gifts a Marine can receive while deployed to a combat zone. Coming back from two days in the field and finding a care package waiting can brighten a Marine's day or week, and from 2005-2015, we've shipped almost 40,000 boxes to troops serving in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Africa. Since the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, for security reasons, we cannot, and do not, give out addresses of Marines stationed overseas. With the help of all our nationwide network of volunteers, we ship thousands of Care Package Project™ boxes each year. No matter where a Marine is stationed, a care package is a little piece of home, a little slice of America, a tangible reminder of the love and support people across the country have for our troops.
How You Can Help
There are many ways you can help us with our care package projects to benefit Marines overseas.
Join Us on Pack Day
Four times a year, we ship hundreds of care package boxes overseas, and we need 80 to 100 volunteers each time to help fill them.
Sponsor a Care Package
For just $22, send a Marine a package, which includes your name. Sponsor a package in someone else's name, or sign up for an ongoing sponsorship.
Donate Shipping Funds
We need thousands of dollars to ship boxes, and every dollar counts. Specialty campaigns include Girl Scout Cookies® shipping and our dollar drive
Hold a Drive or Fundraiser
Collect contents for packages or raise money for shipping. You set the parameters, and we provide advice, brochures, and posters.
Send "Dear Marine" Letters
Write cards and letters for Marines (those from schoolchildren are especially appreciated).
Request a Package for Your Marine
Send us the name and address of your loved one serving overseas, and we'll make sure your Marine receives a care package box.
Esprit de Corps
A MarineParents.com Care Package Project™ box is touched by literally hundreds of hands -- our volunteers' hands, your hands -- and each box we send contains the love and support of people from all walks of American life. Support from the mom who bought a toothbrush and toothpaste – then went back and bought 20 more sets. From the Boy Scout who organized a care package drive and collected thousands of items during his Eagle Scout Project. From the grandfather who set out a collection jar at his VFW hall. From the children who painstakingly decorated cards and wrote letters. From the Marine dads who fought in Vietnam or the first Gulf War and knew what Marines go through so they dug through their wallets and donated $20. Our volunteers are the backbone, the heart, and the soul of MarineParents.com. Thank you!

Hello all !
This is my first post, and I am hoping I can find some answers or support around my current issue
I will start with some background info I am a 33 yo mom of two beautiful children. My oldest son, who is now 13yo, was induced @ 32weeks due to severe PE and HELLP. My youngest son, who is 2yo, was born @ 29 weeks through emergency C-section again due to severe PE and HELLP. After delivery I had to have a transfusion of platelets and blood. I also suffered from acute kidney failure which resolved before thankfully before dialysis was needed. My second son was in the NICU for 6 weeks after birth.
Currently I have chronic hypertension which is being controlled by three different BP meds and I am overweight. I also have kidney disease. Despite all of this I would like to have another child. I am hoping for a normal pregnancy, a better outcome, or at the very least for things to not be worst than the last. Does anyone have any experience with having PE or HELLP in three or more pregnancies? Or any advice on what to try or do differently?

Peace of mind. Not piece of mine. Seriously.
SOSCharger arrives on Kickstarter, delivers self generated power to your iPhone
The SOSCharger has arived on Kickstarter and looks to solve the age old solution of a dead phone battery when you are no where near a power outlet. The SOSCharger is a self generated power charger which means you wind up a handle which creates power for your iPhone. Going one step further, the SOSCharger also has a built in 1,500 mAh Lithium Polymer battery so it has the power to charge almost any phone on the market. If the extra battery dies, you then have the option of using the manual crank handle; 3-5 minutes of cranking will provide 5-12 minutes of talk time.
You can charge the SOSCharger with your standard USB wall charger; the same one that came with your smartphone or Bluetooth device. Once the battery is charged, the SOSCharger acts as a backup power source for your USB-powered devices.
The incorporated hand-crank turbine, utilizes a powerful generator, combined with a long-handle for more leverage and easy turning. If you run out of internal battery power, or you just want to keep the battery topped off, you can turn the handle to charge it up. Just turn the handle and the battery charg)es. We've included an indicator so you know when it's charging and how much juice you have in the battery. What could be easier?
If you are often out of reach of a power outlet or spend a lot of time camping or hiking this is certainly an excellent accessory to have in your backpack. The comfort of knowing that you will never be without your iPhone in critical situations is a very welcoming thought to have.
If you would like to get in on some early SOSCharger action you can grab one when / if they make it to production. A minimum pledge of $35 will be enough to get one including free shipping. There was a cheaper offer at just $25 however that has now all been taken up and the SOSCharger has already smashed through its pledge goal of $27k; it currently sits at over $40k and still has 39 days to go.
What do you think of the SOSCharger? Would you carry one around with you for that extra piece of mind?

SOSCharger arrives on Kickstarter, delivers self generated power to your iPhone
Wow this would be really nice.. But it would be really funny if you have to crank this up in front of your friends.. Will make you look like a jackass.
Exactly !!! I remember that, and the hordes of people huddled around power strips like animals.
It was crazy, this is a great little device to have.
I jumped on this one after having several others, Li Ion, Li Polymer, AA and AAA batteries. The point is that these all went dead after not using them for a while. There are ofcourse a dime a dozen of these wind up chargers (ebay) but this one looked more promising. I will have this one with me on trips in the boondocks.
Looks cool. Once I finish winding it up, i will have no energy left to make a phone call :-)
This is truly a wonderful creation. I'm sure a lot of people will be underestimating its usefulness, but you have no idea how useful this can be when you are stranded somewhere without an outlet near by. This may sound far-fetched, but this could easily save a life; literally. However, in the past it took like an hour of cranking in order to get out like 10 minutes or more.
Personally, I think this little charge should not only have a battery inside, which it does, but some decent solar panels woulda been awesome.
Appears to be thick
Sweet! I could be a total ass at the airport with that. Might have to pick one up after release.
Woah! This would actually be really awesome to have! I've bought two similar products before that are emergency battery packs for your phone, but they didn't have the crank to power feature and barely held a charge so I never use them. This I would seriously consider buying though. If I wasn't broke, I'd go pledge right now for one!
since i love to camp and be outdoors this is great news
Learning more about the product, I think it would be a must have for anyone! Not just for your battery, but for emergencies like hurricanes, or blackouts!
During hurricane sandy we lost power for 11 days and gas lines were atrocious, over 7 hours to fill up in NYC. My mom had purchased an am/fm radio and flashlight (2 separate devices) that had crank handles to charge the internal batteries. There was also the option to use standard AA batteries but these came in handy when listening to the news and using the flashlight at night. I said to my family that there should be one like this charge your phone instead of charging in your car with car running and using up precious gas. I would get one to use at Mets games since I'm there usually 3 hours before a game, during game and an hour or so after and heavily on social media. This would come in handy to have

James Ira Youngblood, 47, was arrested Jan. 1 and charged with aggravated assault.
Jones County Sheriff Department Investigator Lt. Jimmy Black said the sheriff's department received a call about the shooting at 1:05 a.m., New Year's Day. He responded to the call to discover that 57-year-old James Franklin Newman had been shot in the abdomen.
"They were celebrating New Year's Eve, and in some manner an altercation started between the two of them. It got physical, and Mr. Youngblood shot Mr. Newman," Black said.
The investigator said alcohol was involved in the shooting, and the weapon used was a .357 pistol. He said Youngblood went to a neighbor's house to call for help. The location of the shooting was a residence on Spring Drive, which runs off of Mountain Springs Road.
Black said no one else was at the residence when the shooting occurred. The case remains under investigation.

Free of GSP questions, Rory MacDonald ready to seize welterweight title
If Rory MacDonald is about to fill Georges St-Pierres shoes as Canadas next mixed martial arts superstar, its a role hell assume with reluctance.
I dont want to be a superstar, MacDonald said Saturday night after dispatching Tyron Woodley at UFC 174 in Vancouver. I just like to fight and hopefully Ill be a dominant champion and represent Canada well.
Whether or not he wants to take the baton, however, MacDonald may not have much of a choice. The 24-year old welterweight, who trains out of Montreals Tri Star gym with St-Pierre, went home to British Columbia and was greeted with a heros welcome on Saturday. While UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson was the nominal headliner, it was clear MacDonald, whose unanimous decision over Woodley was the evenings co-headline bout, was the real draw for the crowd of 13,506 at Rogers Arena.
The response was great, MacDonald said at the post-fight news conference. I feel like I am falling into a groove. Something is clicking.
Really, who can blame MacDonald for feeling that way? A year ago, MacDonald appeared to be on the brink of the stardom he seems to shy away from. He was 15-1 after picking apart former two-weight-class champion B.J. Penn on national television and speculation rose as to whether he was in line to face his teammate St-Pierre for the latter's welterweight title.
But then came the road bumps. He improved to 16-1 with a one-sided win over Jake Ellenberger last July in Seattle, but the fight was so lackluster that MacDonald was all but booed out of the building. Conversely, with the win the pressure to fight St-Pierre escalated.
Then came the cataclysmic UFC 167 in November. First, MacDonald lost to a resurgent Robbie Lawler. Then came GSPs controversial split-decision win over Johny Hendricks, which led to a chain of events that ended in St-Pierre vacating his title and taking time off from the sport.
If nothing else, when the dust settled, MacDonald realized the pressure was off and he was free to go back to the drawing board, free from the pressure to fight GSP.
Its quite nice not having to answer that question after answering it almost every single interview, said MacDonald. Its a pressure lifted, a distraction thats gone.
A win over veteran Demian Maia at UFC 170 put MacDonald back in the win column. Hendricks narrow victory over Lawler at UFC 171 to claim the title vacated by St-Pierre was the next domino to fall. A handful of fighters are jostling for the next shot at Hendricks title. Saturday night was MacDonalds chance to state his case.
I think this is probably my best performance of my career so far, MacDonald said. Ive got to watch the tape, but the feeling I have right now Im pretty happy right now. Except closing the fight I didnt get the finish, but things went well.
I wanted to get in there, I wanted to mix it up and I wanted to stay busy, he continued. I wanted to close the fight, I came in really good shape and I was looking for the finish tonight.
The flip side of the coin is that Woodley fell flat in one of the biggest opportunities of his career. The 32-year old St. Louis native had openly campaigned his way into the welterweight picture, asking for, and receiving, a fight with Carlos Condit, which Woodley won via injury TKO at UFC 171 in March.
Against MacDonald, though, Woodley looked lost. MacDonald pressed forward and mixed up all sorts of strikes, leaving Woodley backpedaling and second-guessing himself. Woodley has been critiqued for running out of gas in his fights, and in the third, MacDonald effortlessly took down Woodley, a former college wrestler, and kept him there.
Certainly, Woodley (13-3) isnt the only fighter MacDonald has thrown off his game, but the person who holds the key to his future, UFC president Dana White, was far from impressed.
"[Woodley] choked in the big fight tonight," White said. "He needed to come out and try to rip that head off in the third round and he didn't even do that. He threw a few punches, missed and didn't knock him out. He just sort of sat back into the way he fought the rest of the fight."
Sounds like bad news for Woodley. For MacDonald, though, the sky once again appears to be the limit, whether he wishes to soar to the greatest heights or not. The next shot at UFC welterweight champion Johny Hendricks has been promised to the winner of a July 26 bout in San Jose between Lawler and Matt Brown. But these sort of things are never quite etched in stone in the UFC, and MacDonald is lying in wait, should anything muck up the works between now and then.
I just wanted to say I respect the decision of the UFC, MacDonald said. "Theres two guys ahead of me, but if that fights a stinker Ill be ready. They should know Im ready. One day, very soon, the belt will be mine.

Enjoying your blog. Just what I was hoping to be able to find for inspiration as I've begun my journey into the fire service. Also, I did my Army boot camp at Ft. Leonard Wood in MO. Gotta say, what I saw of the state was about as exciting as things here in Oklahoma : )

Keene, N.H. - The president of a once-prominent Keene construction company has been charged with aggravated felonious sexual assault and kidnapping, the Keene Sentinel reported.
Frederick L. Baybutt, 53, of Keene, is accused of sexually assaulting a woman through the actual application of physical force, and kidnapping the woman by preventing her from leaving the residence where the incident allegedly occurred, according to complaints from N.H. State Police.
Arrest warrants and police affidavits related to the case have been sealed by the court until Sept. 27, according to a clerk at 8th Circuit Court District Division in Keene.
In February, Baybutt filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, stating he owed between $1 million and $10 million to creditors (filings do not allow for more specific numbers). Chapter 11 bankruptcy allows the debtor to reorganize while being shielded from creditors.
Baybutt Construction was accused not paying subcontractors for projects, including the Keene fire station, the Rockingham Town Library and the state office building in Vermont.
Baybutt Construction Corp., a family-run business, was founded in 1964.
Frederick Baybutt was arraigned in 8th Circuit Court District Division in Keene on Friday morning and ordered held on $10,000 cash bail. He has a probable cause hearing scheduled in the Keene court on Sept. 4.MORE IN This Just InBy Kathleen Phalen Tomaselli Full StoryBennington College and Middlebury College both top a list for most entrepreneurial colleges in...

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama says he won't go after Washington state and Colorado for legalizing marijuana.
In a Barbara Walters interview airing Friday on ABC, Obama is asked whether he supports making pot legal. He says - quote - "I wouldn't go that far."
But the president won't pursue the issue in the states where voters legalized the use of marijuana in the November elections. Marijuana remains illegal under federal law.
Obama says - quote - "It does not make sense from a prioritization point of view" to focus on drug use in states where it is now legal.
Marijuana officially became legal in Washington state last week; it becomes legal in Colorado next month.

So who keeps an eye on AMD products should already have seen the new 2014 roadmap which consists mostly of new gen APU's.
Now this is an speculation and trying to "debunk" the rumors on the internet.
A lot of talk is going around that AMD is not going to release new CPU's this year since there's no mark of Steamroller core coming to CPU's, which actually is a bit disappointing to say the least. I'm no real big fan of APU's. I'm one of the people who have an mind set of "Moar cores, moar ghz, hell with the TDP". But, it doesn't say anywhere that AMD won't release new CPU's with Vishera cores. Sure, the 9950 is an beast and 8350 is actually more than enough already but I'm still hoping for something new.
Also, since Keller is back at AMD (the original Phenom 2 architect) I doubt they will just leave the FX line hanging just like that and will make some changes to bring the CPU's back into game. Maybe a bit late with next gen arch but this is my opinion.
What do you guys think? :)

Unorthodox lifts to add to your routine.
Unorthodox exercises to add to your routine.
Reverse Bicep curls: Grasp a barbell with an overhand grip, with the palms facing towards you.
Curl the bar up towards the clavicle while keeping the elbows still. At the peak of the lift, curl the bar with your wrists by turning the knuckles towards you. Slowly return to starting position. This exercise works the biceps but also brings a greater contribution of the wrist extensors. Gives an awesome forearm pump.
Viral Pulldowns: Something I came up with at the gym while thinking of ways to improve grip strength and endurance. Use the triceps pulldown machine and attach the rope handle. Get your towel (you do use a towel at the gym don't you, you stinky sweaty bastard?) and fold it into half, then half again. Wrap this around the rope handles and grip the outside of the towel. Perform triceps pulldown as normal with one hand. This exercise works the triceps but by wrapping the towel around the rope, you make the handle thicker and harder to grip which forces a greater contribution of the forearm muscles. You also have to grip hard to stop the rope sliding under the towel which forces your forarms to stabilise the grip. Just wait until fatigue kicks in around the last few reps, gives a great burn in the forearms. Good exercise for gi-based grapplers.
Stiff-legged deadlift: Place a barbell on the ground. Perfrom a deadlift with the knees slightly bent (don't lock the knees out) and lift the bar using the lower back, glutes and hamstrings, kind of like doing back extensions but standing up. Keep the head up and don't round the spine, use natural back posture. (natural back posture should be an "S" shaped curvature, not a "C".) It's important to keep the barbell close to the body throughout the lift. The bar should brush up against the knees and things. Bringing the weight further from the body increases the pressure on the lower back. This exercise is actually safe to perform provided you:
- know what you are doing.
- have experience with squats and deadlifts and can use good form on each.
- don't overdo the weight. Start light and build technique first, then gradually adding more weight as your strength increases.
- don't continue to lift when fatigue kicks in and form suffers. Stop on the rep that form begins to falter.
- read this: http://www.exrx.net/Questions/Danger...l#anchor416052
Hammer Isolation Curls: Sit on a bench with legs apart and grasp a dumbell. Place the elbow on the inside of the thigh near the knee. Hold the dumbell vertically, with he palm facing towards you. Perform bicep isolation curls from this position. Using the hammer grip increases the contribution of the forearms as fixators. For an extra killer, after you get to failure, use the other arm to help you lift the dumbell, then let go and try and lower it as slowly as possible. Three words: lactic acid city.

I had no idea these were considered unorthodox. I thought SLDLs were a mainstain in most workout plans.
I was gonna post things like car pushing/pulling, rope climbing, phone book/deck of cards tearing, towel chins, etc etc.
And why are you doing isolation curls? =P"Emevas,

That reminds me, I should have included the Leverage Bar...
Leverage Bar: I used to use the bars in the Pump room this, but any sort of bar like a broomstick would do. Grab the bar off-center and rotate clock and anticlockwise from a mid-bicep curl position. As you get stronger with this exercise grip lower and lower down the bar. Works the supuinators and pronators.

Style: Lifting heavy stuff--
Doing more pull ups/ chin ups
For the past month I've been doing a bodyweight routine consisting of push ups, sit ups, dips, squats, burpee's and 400 metre sprints for cardio.
After doing a bit of research it seems like madness to neglect the good old fashioned pull up and chin ups, so I got myself down to the local park and tried some chin ups. I was shocked at how bad I am at chin ups. I could do 3 in a row that's it!
How do I do more chin ups? I can do press ups alright. should I just do 3 rep sets until I gt stronger or are there other exercises that I can do to strengthen other muscles to assist with the chin ups.
My goals are to lose the beer belly and just get generally fitter and build better conditioning for judo. The reason for doing bodyweight is that I hate gyms and love the outdoors and I can take the dogs down to the local park do the sprints and there's chin up bars and dip bars so I can get all the exercises done and walk the dogs in one sitting. When I plateau I plan on adding weigt to the exercises using a back pack.
Are there any other exercises that you recommend doing as well?
Cheers I advance

1Once I came across a question posted on a popular powerlifting website by a young Marine: how should he train to be able to do more chin-ups? I was amused when I read the arcane and non-specific advice the trooper had received: straight-arm pull-downs, reverse curls, avoiding the negative part of the chin-up every third workout... I had a radical thought: if you want to get good at chin-ups, why not try to do... a lot of chin-ups?
Pretty much says it all.

Style: TKD, Boxing, Krav Maga--
Pretty much Russ said for the chin ups. Once you can do 15 chin ups pretty easily i would switch to pull ups, as they work your biceps and back a little more.
As for exorcises, don't ignore your abs man. People always think they are just for aesthetics, but your core is important in pretty much any kind of sport/exorcise.
you can also look into buying dumbbells if you hate the gym. Home gyms are pretty easy to make these days if you have say $100 for all the gear.
Style: stick,Taiji, mountainbike--
Do you have a smart phone or ipod touch? If so, go one there and look for the chin up ap. It should be free. Down load, and you will be on your way.
I am 6ft, 235lbs and right now I am maxing out at 22 strait pullups(not chin ups). About a year ago I was exactly where you are. I could only do about 3 chin ups. I was getting on pull up! So I tried a bunch of these crazy pull up ideas online. Like the Armstrong program, the greasing the groove program, and all those. But I wasn't getting anywhere. I abandoned the Armstrong program because it was too fucking confusing! So I downloaded the free ap, and pulled my way to over 20 strait pullups!Combatives training log.

Drum thread
Pavel Tsatsouline: kettlebell workouts give you cardio without the dishonour of aerobics.
You don't do chin ups to failure because you do 3 and stop. Set a goal of say ten. Do the three stop, do three more, do two, do one and so on.
And you kind of have to do9 it every day to get good at it.Whitsunday Martial Arts Airlie Beach North Queensland.
Style: stick,Taiji, mountainbike--
That's it. Then you record your progress as you go along. The ap adjusts the reps higher a little every workout. I just looked at my reps on the log when I started and here is what my first few days looked like:
1 1 1 1 3
1 2 1 1 6
2 2 2 2 4
I know it looks pitiful but this is week 6
4 4 4 4 4 4 3 3 10.
So my last set on that one after all those little sets was 10. Not too bad.
A few of the days were sets of higher numbers.
Week 5 day 1
7 8 6 4 8
On some of the reps you may only have a 30 second rest. So the ap does it all for you and you just follow along.
I tried one al that had you doing ladder sets every day. That was tough and not for beginners.
Hope that helps.Combatives training log.

Third Toledo SOUP set for Sept. 8Written by Sarah Ottney | Editor in Chief | firstname.lastname@example.com
The "third helping" of crowd-sourced, microgrant dinner series Toledo SOUP will feature presenters trying to win support for projects as wide-ranging as refurbishing an Old West End basketball court to rescuing women from the sex trade. The event is set for 5-9 p.m. Sept. 8 at Toledo School for the Arts (TSA), 333 14th St. Admission is $5 for adults and $1 for children 12 and younger.
Five finalists will present their projects while attendees eat dinner and then attendees vote on a winner. The winning project is awarded the total admission collected, typically between $500 and $1,000, organizers said.
The proposal committee narrowed the applicants to five: Genevieve Abalos (The Art of Hope), Ben Cohen (The Macelwane Park Basketball Court Project), Aimee Reid (Children's Theatre Workshop), Rachel Richardson (Art Corner Toledo) and Jamie Sampson (ADJ-ective New Music).
"There's a nice mixture of different types of proposals," said Emily Rippe, one of the event's organizers. "I'm really looking forward to hearing from some of these presenters. There should be some really interesting ones — some I've never heard of before and some I'm very familiar with."
The meal will include three choices of soup, including one vegan option. Farmers market salad and bread will also be served.
New this year, a free art fair and bake sale will be held prior to Toledo SOUP, from noon to 5 p.m. at TSA. The event was organized by Maxwell Austin, owner of Glass City Pedicabs and winner of the first Toledo SOUP in 2012.
"I was trying to think of a way to bring more people through the door. The more people who come, the more money the recipient is going to receive," Austin said. "Hopefully when the art event is done at 5 p.m., everyone will go right into Toledo SOUP."
Proceeds from the bake sale will go toward the Toledo SOUP recipient. Free-will donations will also be accepted for TSA as thanks for the use of the space, Austin said.
Austin, who used his winnings from the first Toledo SOUP to pay for pedicab insurance, said he believes in the mission of Toledo SOUP.
"This is your city. You have a civic duty to yourself and your neighbors to try to make Toledo an awesome place. For $5 you get to help Toledo be something greater," Austin said. "There's a whole lot of people with a lot of good energy trying to push Toledo into a good place. Toledo's done a lot of good things for me and all I can do is try to do some good things back for it.
Organizers hope the third Toledo SOUP will be the biggest yet.
"There's a lot more interest in this one than there was for the second one, so that's encouraging," Rippe said. "We just kind of took a break so we could all refresh and really do it right. We're just really excited. It's been about a year since this was put on. We want it to be the best ever."

- A new SPS programme (2006)
- A new experiemntal program to study hadron production in hadron-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions at the CERN SPS has been recently proposed by the NA49-future collaboration. The physics goals of the program are: (i) search for the critical point of strongly interacting matter and a study of the properties of the onset of deconfinemnt in nucleus-nucleus collisions, (ii) measurements of correlations, fluctuations and hadron spectra at high transverse momentum in proton-nucleus collisions needed as for better understanding of nucleus-nucleus results, (iii) measurements of hadron production in hadron-nucleus interactions needed for neutrino (T2K) and cosmic-ray (Pierre Auger Observatory and KASCADE) expriments. The physics of the nucleus-nucleus program is reviewed in this presentation.
- Energy and system size dependence of chemical freeze-out in relativistic nuclear collisions (2005)
- We present a detailed study of chemical freeze-out in p-p, C-C, Si-Si and Pb-Pb collisions at beam momenta of 158A GeV as well as Pb-Pb collisions at beam momenta of 20A, 30A, 40A and 80A GeV. By analyzing hadronic multiplicities within the statistical hadronization model, we have studied the parameters of the source as a function of the number of the participating nucleons and the beam energy. We observe a nice smooth behaviour of temperature, baryon chemical potential and strangeness under-saturation parameter as a function of energy and nucleus size. Interpolating formulas are provided which allow to predict the chemical freeze-out parameters in central collisions at centre-of-mass energies > 4.5 GeV and for any colliding ions. Specific discrepancies between data and model emerge in particle ratios in Pb-Pb collisions at SPS between 20A and 40A GeV of beam energy which cannot be accounted for in the considered model schemes.
- Transparency, mixing and reflection of initial flows in relativistic nuclear collisions (2006)
- We propose to use the hadron number fluctuations in the limited momentum regions to study the evolution of initial flows in high energy nuclear collisions. In this method by a proper preparation of a collision sample the projectile and target initial flows are marked in fluctuations in the number of colliding nucleons. We discuss three limiting cases of the evolution of flows, transparency, mixing and reflection, and present for them quantitative predictions obtained within several models. Finally, we apply the method to the NA49 results on fluctuations of the negatively charged hadron multiplicity in Pb+Pb interactions at 158A GeV and conclude that the data favor a hydrodynamical model with a significant degree of mixing of the initial flows at the early stage of collisions.
- Evidence for an exotic S=-2, Q=-2 baryon resonance in proton-proton collisions at the CERN SPS (2004)
- Results of resonance searches in the Xi - pi -, Xi - pi +, Xi -bar+ pi -, and Xi -bar+ pi + invariant mass spectra in proton-proton collisions at sqrt[s]=17.2 GeV are presented. Evidence is shown for the existence of a narrow Xi - pi - baryon resonance with mass of 1.862±0.002 GeV/c2 and width below the detector resolution of about 0.018 GeV/c2. The significance is estimated to be above 4.2 sigma . This state is a candidate for the hypothetical exotic Xi --3/2 baryon with S=-2, I=3 / 2, and a quark content of (dsdsu-bar). At the same mass, a peak is observed in the Xi - pi + spectrum which is a candidate for the Xi 03/2 member of this isospin quartet with a quark content of (dsusd-bar). The corresponding antibaryon spectra also show enhancements at the same invariant mass.

- Difficulties of the thermodynamical model approach to pion production in relativistic ion collisions (1983)
- Thermodynamical models with various forms of partial transparency of nuclear matter are considered. It is shown that the introduction of transparency, however, significantly improves agreement with pion data concerning multiplicities and transverse momenta leads to a serious discrepancy with average rapidities of pions. Qualitative arguments are given that difficulties of the thermodynamical approach can be overcome if one assumes hydrodynamical expansion in the first stage of nuclear interactions.
- Lambda hyperons produced in central nucleus-nucleus interactions at 4.5 GeV/c momentum per incident nucleon (1983)
- Transverse momenta and rapidities of Lambda 's produced in central nucleus-nucleus collisions at 4.5 GeV/c·u (C-C,...,O-Pb) were studied and compared with those from inelastic He-Li interactions at the same incident momentum. Polarization of the Lambda hyperons was found to be consistent with zero ( alpha P=-0.06=0.11 for Lambda 's from central collisions). An upper limit of the Lambda -bar / Lambda production ratio was estimated to be less than 4.5 x 10-3. The experiment was performed in a triggered streamer chamber.
