ANALYSIS OF POPULATION TRENDS IN ROMANIA. CASE STUDY - ANALYSIS OF THE RURAL POPULATION IN THE SUBURBAN AREAS OF TIMIȘOARA MUNICIPALITY by Camelia MĂNESCU, Ada-Flavia CRISTINA, Saida DAVID, Teodor MATEOC, Attila TOTH, Nicoleta MATEOC-SÎRB

“…The research methodology used was based on study of resources and documents and also on analysis and synthesis of the information on population evolution in our country. At the end of the paper, the authors founded that the persistence of an aging population, due to the decrease of it, has dramatic consequences over the fewer active people, which will have to maintain more inactive ones, and is a threat for any social protection system.…”

Longitudinal heterogeneity of Phobos’ crater size-frequency distribution: coevolution of resurfacing and orbital dynamics by Yuki Uchida, Kosei Toyokawa, Tomohiro Usui, Yudai Suzuki, Haruhisa Tabata

“…This study shows three main conclusions about surface heterogeneity in Phobos’ CSFD and ejecta blanket thickness. (1) The leading side experienced significant crater erasure, likely due to the thickest ejecta blanket from the Stickney impact. (2) The density of craters larger than $$\sim$$ ∼ 1.5 km reflects pre-Stickney conditions, whereas the densities of craters measuring 0.8–1.5 km and 400–800 m in diameter reflect post-Stickney surface evolution. (3) Crater number density on the near side was consistently lower than on the far side, likely due to planetary screening. …”
