Working To Reduce Ninth Grade Failure Rates In Urban School Settings: A Multi-Case Study Of Ninth Grade Transition Programs In Four Urban High Schools In Virginia, Lynnell Theard Gibson
Working To Reduce Ninth Grade Failure Rates In Urban School Settings: A Multi-Case Study Of Ninth Grade Transition Programs In Four Urban High Schools In Virginia, Lynnell Theard Gibson
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
The focus of the ninth grade year as a crucial year for high school students is a current issue that raises national concern. Currently, rural and suburban school districts have been successful in implementing and in sustaining successful ninth grade transition programs. However, in urban settings, educators have been perplexed by the varying degrees of success with these same strategies. This study focused on four urban high schools' efforts to increase ninth grade promotion rates and ultimately high school completion rates. Each school's efforts have been described in order to gain insight into how each program was developed to meet …
Real -Time Retinex Image Enhancement: Algorithm And Architecture Optimizations, Glenn Derrick Hines
Real -Time Retinex Image Enhancement: Algorithm And Architecture Optimizations, Glenn Derrick Hines
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
The field of digital image processing encompasses the study of algorithms applied to two-dimensional digital images, such as photographs, or three-dimensional signals, such as digital video. Digital image processing algorithms are generally divided into several distinct branches including image analysis, synthesis, segmentation, compression, restoration, and enhancement. One particular image enhancement algorithm that is rapidly gaining widespread acceptance as a near optimal solution for providing good visual representations of scenes is the Retinex.;The Retinex algorithm performs a non-linear transform that improves the brightness, contrast and sharpness of an image. It simultaneously provides dynamic range compression, color constancy, and color rendition. It …
Ultrafast Laser Spectroscopy Of Half -Metallic Chromium Dioxide, Hailong Huang
Ultrafast Laser Spectroscopy Of Half -Metallic Chromium Dioxide, Hailong Huang
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
This thesis presents ultrafast laser pump-probe differential transmission experiments on epitaxial CrO2 (110). The experiments were conducted at the wavelengths of 600 nm, 800 nm and 1200 nm, corresponding to the transition energies of 2 eV, 1.5 eV and 1 eV respectively. The wavelength dependent results, comparing with linear optical absorption, revealed the electronic structure of the material. The experimental results also showed polarization dependence of the probe beams. This is attributed to the electronic orbital anisotropy.;Temperature dependence was observed in the pump-probe experiments. The ultrafast transmission data show similar temperature dependence as ultrafast MOKE (Magneto-Optical Kerr Effect) data. A …
Spectroscopy, Production And Decays Of Pentaquarks, Herry Kwee
Spectroscopy, Production And Decays Of Pentaquarks, Herry Kwee
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
An extensive study of the production, decay and spectroscopy of pentaquarks has been done in this dissertation. at the time of this writing, the existence of the pentaquark has not been conclusively established. New experimental results for the pentaquark will come in the months ahead. A brief review of the current experimental status of the pentaquark is given in the Introduction. The pentaquark states are analyzed using the constituent quark model with the lowest-lying pentaquark multiplet shown to be an antidecuplet. The mass splittings within the antidecuplet emerge from spin-color and spin-flavor interactions between constituents and from hidden strangeness in …

Optical Characterization Of Ferromagnetic Heterostructure *Interfaces And Thin Films, Haibin Zhao
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
This thesis presents optical characterizations of interfaces in ferromagnetic heterostructures and thin films used for spin polarized electronic devices. In these experiments, femtosecond laser spectroscopies are exploited to investigate the interface magnetization reversal, spin precession, and band offset, which are crucial in determining the performances of spintronic devices.;First, magnetization-induced second-harmonic-generation (MSHG) is applied to study interface magnetism in a hybrid structure containing a noncentrosymmetric semiconductor---Fe/AlGaAs. The reversal process of Fe interface layer magnetization is compared with the bulk magnetization reversal. In Fe/AlGaAs (001), the interface magnetization is found to be decoupled from the bulk magnetization based on the different switching …
Studies In Cpt Violation And 331 Models, David L. Anderson
Studies In Cpt Violation And 331 Models, David L. Anderson
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
The Standard Model of particles and fields has been around for about 30 years, and has been remarkably successful. However, it is widely believed to be incomplete, and theorists have studied various extensions to the model. These extensions can take many forms. An example of this is the framework Colladay and Kostelecky have proposed for studying Lorentz and CPT violation in a natural extension of the Standard Model. We determined the first bounds on the parameters in the Higgs sector. The bounds on the CPT---even asymmetric coefficients arise from the one-loop contributions to the photon propagator, those from the CPT---even …
