Azimuthal correlations for large transverse momentum charged hadrons have been measured over a wide pseudorapidity range and full azimuth in Au+Au and p+p collisions at sqrt[s(NN)]=200 GeV. The small-angle correlations observed in p+p collisions and at all centralities of Au+Au collisions are characteristic of hard-scattering processes previously observed in high-energy collisions. A strong back-to-back correlation exists for p+p and peripheral Au+Au. In contrast, the back-to-back correlations are reduced considerably in the most central Au+Au collisions, indicating substantial interaction as the hard-scattered partons or their fragmentation products traverse the medium.

"Liquid gold" has been traditionally used for over a century to decorate ceramicware, but its chemical composition has not been thoroughly investigated. One of the keys to successfully characterizing liquid gold, which is a complex mixture, is to distinguish Au-containing products from other chemicals. In this paper, we propose a separation based on the difference in collision cross section, of which chemicals with heavy atoms are relatively smaller than those without in ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS).

Background: Motor vehicle collisions (MVC) continue to be a leading cause of mortality for youth in the United States. Since 2010, seven states have revoked mandatory laws that suspended licenses for underage alcohol use, also known as use/lose laws. This study analyzed whether each state's policy change was associated with increased youth MVC mortality.

Background: Fall injuries resulting from trips are a major health concern. Virtual reality (VR) offers an effective way of training obstacle avoidance while walking due to its ability to provide safe and meaningful real-time feedback during rehabilitation. This proof-of-concept study examined the benefit of providing physical feedback during obstacle avoidance gait training using VR.

Article Synopsis
- The study addressed the unclear incidence and risk factors for sport-related concussions (SRC) in female youth involved in contact and collision invasion sports.
- A systematic review was conducted by screening 4,509 articles, which resulted in 66 studies being included, focusing on SRC incidence and risk factors for female athletes aged 13-19.
- Findings indicated a pooled SRC incidence rate of 0.50 per 1,000 match/practice hours, with soccer and rugby union showing the highest rates at 0.89 and 4.04 per 1,000 hours, respectively.
