TL;DR: In this article, the performance of a group of grade 9 mathematics students trained to use a self-explanation procedure during study of a new theorem in geometry was compared with that of students who used their usual study procedures.

TL;DR: In this article, the convergent-close-coupling method was extended for the calculation of electron-hydrogen scattering to hydrogen-like targets, atoms, or ions.
Abstract: We extend the convergent-close-coupling method for the calculation of electron-hydrogen scattering to hydrogenlike targets, atoms, or ions. These include H, Li, Na, and K, atoms, as well as the multitude of ions which have the same isoelectronic sequence as any of these atoms. The reliability of the method is independent of the projectile energy, and we demonstrate its applicability by achieving excellent agreement with a large set of measurements for electron scattering on sodium at projectile energies ranging from 1 to 54.4 eV. These measurements include spin asymmetries, singlet and triplet ${\mathit{L}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\perp}}}$, reduced Stokes parameters, differential, integrated, and total cross sections, as well as the total ionization spin asymmetry. The method is found to give better agreement with experiment than any other over this entire energy range.

TL;DR: Functional-integral methods are used to obtain an approximate bilocal-field representation of the QCD generating functional and the MIT bag constant is calculated, extending the previous calculation of the bag constant.
Abstract: Several phenomenological models of hadrons are derived from quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Functional-integral methods are used to obtain an approximate bilocal-field representation of the QCD generating functional. The degenerate vacuum configurations of the action for the bilocal fields have a rich topological structure arising from the dynamically broken chiral symmetry. Restricting the bilocal-field fluctuations to those of local fields results in a local-field bosonization of QCD, from which we obtain values for several meson parameters. A nontopological-soliton ansatz for hadronic states leads to a generalized bag-model action which as special cases contains the chiral-bag-model action and the MIT-bag-model action. All parameters in these actions are calculable and in particular the MIT bag constant is calculated. This work extends our previous calculation of the bag constant.
