Experimental Determination Of The Stable Boundary For A Cylindrical Ion Trap, Andrew Alexander, Victor Kwong, Brad Clarke, James Benavente Aug 2010

Experimental Determination Of The Stable Boundary For A Cylindrical Ion Trap, Andrew Alexander, Victor Kwong, Brad Clarke, James Benavente

Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP)

The first radio frequency (rf) quadrupole ion traps were designed with hyperbolic trapping electrodes and had the advantage of a working theoretical model with an analytical solution for the equation of motion for an ion. This came at the cost of a difficult fabrication process by the nature of the hyperbolic design. Cylindrical designs were found to be an easily constructed and functional alternative for ion trapping, but a sound theoretical model for this geometry has yet to emerge. While the hyperbolic theory yields approximate parameters for stable ion trapping, experiments conducted near the stable/unstable boundary require an experimental determination …


3d Micro-Mr And Micro-Ct Models For Determining In-Vivo Function In The Guinea Pig Knee Model Of Osteoarthritis (Oa), Kristoffer W. Dean Aug 2010

3d Micro-Mr And Micro-Ct Models For Determining In-Vivo Function In The Guinea Pig Knee Model Of Osteoarthritis (Oa), Kristoffer W. Dean

Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP)

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating disease that affects an estimated 27 million adults in the United States. OA causes damage to cartilage in the joints resulting in bones that rub together. This creates pain, swelling, loss of motion of the joint, and bone spurs. As the number of adults above 65 grows (an estimated 72 million people by 2030) even more people will be at high risk for OA. It is the most common type of arthritis by far yet very little is known about it including relationships between joint structure and function. In 2004, the NIH created the Osteoarthritis …
