STAR collaboration has offered eminent nuclear modification factor of J/ψ at high pT and midrapidity produced in Cu-Cu collisions at √ sNN = 200 GeV. Recalling a prediction we can understand that the feature of high-pT nuclear modification factor is related to cc̄ produced by 2 → 1 and 2 → 2 partonic processes in deconfined matter particularly in the prethermal stage and to the recombination of ...

In this article we examine four objections to the genetic modification of human beings: the freedom argument, the giftedness argument, the authenticity argument, and the uniqueness argument. We then demonstrate that each of these arguments against genetic modification assumes a strong version of genetic determinism. Since these strong deterministic assumptions are false, the arguments against g...
