The Vertical Gradients Of Ozone Concentration And Its Relation To The Eddy Coefficient Of Diffusion, Joseph Levine May 1956

The Vertical Gradients Of Ozone Concentration And Its Relation To The Eddy Coefficient Of Diffusion, Joseph Levine

Physics & Astronomy ETDs

The purpose of this thesis is to apply this method to a tentative evaluation of the eddy coefficient of diffusion. Actually the investigation was more specifically an attempt to relate the difference in ozone concentration between the two stations to the average wind shear and to the vertical thermal stability.


The Motion Of A Charged Particle In Homogenous Time-Varying Magnetic Field, Thomas R. Bates May 1956

The Motion Of A Charged Particle In Homogenous Time-Varying Magnetic Field, Thomas R. Bates

Physics & Astronomy ETDs

This paper will discuss the motion of a non-relativistic, non-radiating charged particle in an infinite homogeneous magnetic field which varies linearly with time. We shall assume the motion to be confined to a plane perpendicular to the magnetic field.


An Indicator Of Position With Respect To The Earth's Magnetic Field, Lloyd C. Nielsen May 1956

An Indicator Of Position With Respect To The Earth's Magnetic Field, Lloyd C. Nielsen

Physics & Astronomy ETDs

A large amount of experimental research in the field of atmospheric physics involves carrying apparatus aloft by means of balloons. Data from balloon-borne instruments may be obtained either by recovery of the apparatus or by radio telemetering during the flight. Of these two methods, the latter is of course the more convenient and reliable, since recovery of the apparatus is time-consuming and often impossible.
