Radiation Releases At Sandia National Laboratories/New Mexico: Recently Reported Radiation Releases And Other Potential Sources Of Radiation Release, Albuquerque Center For Peace And Justice, Paul Robinson

Albuquerque Center for Peace and Justice

About Sandia National Laboratories: "Sandia was established as “Z Division” on Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, N.M., in 1945 during the Manhattan Project as a division of the Los Alamos Laboratory to provide engineering design, production, assembly, and field testing of non-nuclear components of nuclear weapons. On request of President Harry Truman, Sandia became an independent laboratory on Nov. 1,1949. Since 1949, Sandia National Laboratories/New Mexico (SNL/NM) has developed science-based technologies that support our national security.

Sandia is a government-owned/contractor-operated facility “managed by a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Corporation for the Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Nuclear Security Administration …

2006 Oregon Harvest Report, Oregon Wine Board

Oregon Wine Board Documents

This harvest report for the Oregon wine industry from 2006 discusses how plentiful yields and mature flavors increased consumer access to quality Oregon wine. Statewide, the growing season was warm and dry, thrilling the Oregon winemakers and growers. The sugar was slightly higher, and, with the moderate levels of acidity, the fruit maintained full flavors.

Density Of States, Entropy, And The Superconducting Pomeranchuk Effect In Pauli-Limited Al Films, X. S. Wu, P. W. Adams, G. Catelani

Faculty Publications

We present low-temperature tunneling density of states measurements of Pauli-limited Al films in which the Zeeman and orbital contributions to the critical field are comparable. We show that films in the thickness range of 6-7 nm exhibit a reentrant parallel critical field transition which is associated with a high-entropy superconducting phase, similar to the high-entropy solid phase of He3 responsible for the Pomeranchuk effect. This phase is characterized by an excess of states near the Fermi energy so long as the parallel critical field transition remains second order. Theoretical fits to the zero-bias tunneling conductance are in good agreement with …

Coexistence And Exclusion Between Humans And Monkeys In Japan: Is Either Really Possible?, David S. Sprague, Nobusuke Iwasaki

Ecological and Environmental Anthropology (University of Georgia)

The Japanese people face a cultural and ecological challenge in seeking a new relationship between themselves and the Japanese monkeys (Macaca fuscata). Monkeys are a major agricultural pest. Monkey habitat often lies within a short distance from fields and villages, and vice versa, especially in mountainous areas. The idealized solution is a form of coexistence where humans and monkeys somehow negotiate a harmonious compromise. A word used often in Japanese is kyosei, to live in common, implying a more intimate relation than mere side-by-side coexistence. In practice, kyosei is a word used by policy makers or scholars, but less often …

Doubly Penalized Buckley-James Method For Survival Data With High-Dimensional Covariates, Sijian Wang, Bin Nan, Ji Zhu, David G. Beer

The University of Michigan Department of Biostatistics Working Paper Series

Recent interest in cancer research focuses on predicting patients' survival by investigating gene expression profiles based on microarray analysis. We propose a doubly penalized Buckley-James method for the semiparametric accelerated failure time model to relate high-dimensional genomic data to censored survival outcomes, which uses a mixture of L₁-norm and L₂-norm penalties. Similar to the elastic-net method for linear regression model with uncensored data, the proposed method performs automatic gene selection and parameter estimation, where highly correlated genes are able to be selected (or removed) together. The two-dimensional tuning parameter is determined by cross-validation and uniform design. …

Ethnoprimatology: Toward Reconciliation Of Biological And Cultural Anthropology, Erin P. Riley

Ecological and Environmental Anthropology (University of Georgia)

One of the hallmarks of the discipline of anthropology is its holistic approach to the study of what it means to be human. A perennial challenge to the discipline, however, is the question of whether biological and cultural anthropology can truly coexist given their traditionally disparate epistemologies and methodologies. In this paper, I argue that the emerging field of ethnoprimatology, which focuses on the ecological and cultural interconnections between human and nonhuman primates, has real potential to bridge these two subfields. I support my argument by discussing the theoretical rationale of an ethnoprimatological approach with regard to the notion of …

One Reserve, Three Primates: Applying A Holistic Approach To Understand The Interconnections Among Ring-Tailed Lemurs (Lemur Catta), Verreaux's Sifaka (Propithecus Verreauxi), And Humans (Homo Sapiens) At Beza Mahafaly Special Reserve, Madagascar, James E. Loudon, Michelle L. Sauther, Krista D. Fish, Mandala Hunter-Ishikawa, Youssouf Jacky Ibrahim

Ecological and Environmental Anthropology (University of Georgia)

We applied cultural anthropological, ethological, and parasitological methodologies to investigate the interplay among three primate species, ring-tailed lemurs (Lemur catta), Verreaux’s sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi), and humans (Homo sapiens) who live within the same habitat (i.e. in sympatry) around the Beza Mahafaly Special Reserve, Madagascar. Through a fusion of these methodologies we hope to provide a holistic understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of human-nonhuman primate sympatry. Interviews and questionnaires provided us with initial insights regarding the local peoples' attitudes toward sympatric strepsirrhine primates. Origin myths indicate a close association between humans, ring-tailed lemurs, and …

The Asymmetric Explosion Of Type Ia Supernovae As Seen From Near-Infrared Observations, Kentaro Motohara, Keiichi Maeda, Christopher L. Gerardy, Ken'ichi Nomoto, Masaomi Tanaka, Nozomu Tominaga, Takuya Ohkubo, Paolo A. Mazzali, Robert A. Fesen, Peter Hoflich, J. Craig Wheeler

Dartmouth Scholarship

We present near-infrared spectra of late-phase (>200 days) Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) taken at the Subaru Telescope. The [Fe II] line of SN 2003hv shows a clear flat-topped feature, while that of SN 2005W shows a less prominent flatness. In addition, a large shift in their line center, varying from -3000 to 1000 km s^-1 with respect to the host galaxies, is seen. Such a shift suggests the occurrence of an off-center, nonspherical explosion in the central region and provides important, new constraints on the explosion models of SNe Ia.
