Structural Effects On K-Vacancy Production By Protons Of Extreme Relativistic Energies, P.T. Leung, M. L. Rustgi
Structural Effects On K-Vacancy Production By Protons Of Extreme Relativistic Energies, P.T. Leung, M. L. Rustgi
Physics Faculty Publications and Presentations
The effect on the K-vacancy-production cross section due to the finite distribution of charge and magnetic moment of the incident proton is examined. Numerical results are given for two target elements, namely, Ni and U. The results show that even at energy as high as 10³ GeV the incident proton can still be regarded as a point charge. The effect on the stopping power of matter is discussed.

Massless Neutrinos And The Stellar Stopping Power Via The V-A And Weinberg Interactions, P.T. Leung, M. L. Rustgi
Massless Neutrinos And The Stellar Stopping Power Via The V-A And Weinberg Interactions, P.T. Leung, M. L. Rustgi
Physics Faculty Publications and Presentations
A formula for the stopping power of matter for neutrinos and antineutrinos, interacting with electrons via the weak interaction in the context of both the V-A theory and the Weinberg theory is derived in the high-Q approximation and applied to study the solar-neutrino anomaly. The result shows that neutrinos extending in energy from 1 to 10 MeV produced inside the Sun escape it essentially without any loss of energy. In agreement with previous investigators, Rustgi, Leung, Turner, and Brandt (1981). It is found that the neutrinos should retain the energy given them at their creation essentially forever and permeate the …

Comparison Of Bethe's Formula For Magnetic-Moment Transitions In Atoms With The Generalized Rosenbluth's Equation, P.T. Leung, M. L. Rustgi, J. E. Turner
Physics Faculty Publications and Presentations
An error in an old but often quoted paper by Bethe (1935) on the cross section for an atomic transition caused by the magnetic moment of the projectile is corrected by comparing it with the generalized Rosenbluth's formula (1950).

Geology And Hydrothermal Alteration, Glass Buttes, Southeast Oregon, Dulcy Annette Berri
Geology And Hydrothermal Alteration, Glass Buttes, Southeast Oregon, Dulcy Annette Berri
Dissertations and Theses
The Glass Buttes volcanic complex consists of many domes and individual vents that erupted both rhyolitic and basaltic lavas during the late Miocene to early Pliocene. The east half of the complex, in the vicinity of Little Glass Butte, contains interfingering, finely flow-banded rhyolite and black obsidian flows. The youngest unit, an obsidian, has been dated at 4.9 m.y. East of Little Glass Butte lie two northwest-trending ridges, Antelope and Cascade Ridges, composed of two or more overlapping exogenous domes that formed along northwest-trending faults.
Structure And Influence Of The Tillamook Uplift On The Stratigraphy Of The Mist Area, Oregon, Moinoddin Murtuzamiya Kadri
Structure And Influence Of The Tillamook Uplift On The Stratigraphy Of The Mist Area, Oregon, Moinoddin Murtuzamiya Kadri
Dissertations and Theses
Fifty three sedimentary samples were analyzed for their minor and trace element concentrations utilizing instrumental neutron activation analysis. Concentrations of Na, K, La, Sm and Sc, and their ratios appear to establish significant trends. The data suggest a major break from a granitic-metamorphic provenance and a volcanic component dominated provenance between the Cowlitz and Keasey Formations respectively. The provenance of the Astoria Formation indicates the presence of flood basalts.
The Stratigraphic Relationships Of The Columbia River Basalt Group In The Lower Columbia River Gorge Of Oregon And Washington, Terry Leo Tolan
The Stratigraphic Relationships Of The Columbia River Basalt Group In The Lower Columbia River Gorge Of Oregon And Washington, Terry Leo Tolan
Dissertations and Theses
The purpose of this study was to produce a detailed geologic map of the CRBG in the western portion of the Columbia River Gorge (fig. 1). The objectives were (1) to identify and delineate the extent of the Priest Rapids Member and Pomona Member intracanyon flows, and (2) to define the relationship of post-CRBG units to the CRBG intracanyon flows.
A Preliminary Investigation Of The Lithological Characteristics Of The Troutdale Formation In Portions Of The Camas, Sandy, Washougal, And Bridal Veil Quadrangles, David Lee Cole
Dissertations and Theses
The study area encompasses a region of about 80 square kilometers, centered about Corbett, Oregon. Sieve analyses suggest that the Troutdale Formation is composed of a conglomerate, a coarse-grained sandstone, and a siltstone lithofacies. Measured sections data show that 56 to 60 percent of the Troutdale Formation's exposures are composed of the conglomerate lithofacies. The coarsegrained sandstone lithofacies makes up 34 to 38 percent, while the siltstone lithofacies makes up only 4 to 8 percent. Pebble count data show that the representation of basalt varies from 69 to 100 percent, with an average of 85 percent, while quartzite varies from …
A Geophysical Study Of The North Scappoose Creek, Alder Creek, Clatskanie River Lineament, Along The Trend Of The Portland Hills Fault, Columbia County, Oregon, Nina Haas
Dissertations and Theses
The Portland Hills fault forms a strong northwest trending lineament along the east side of the Tualatin Mountains. An en echelon lineament follows North Scappoose Creek, Alder Creek, and the Clatskanie River along the same trend, through Columbia County, Oregon. The possibility that this lineament follows a fault or fault zone was investigated in this study. Geophysical methods were used, with seismic refraction, magnetic and gravity lines run perpendicular to the lineament. The seismic refraction models indicate the near surface basalt is broken in many places, with 15 - 30 meters (50 - 100 feet) vertical displacement, down to the …
The Geology Of The Floras Creek Area, Curry County, Oregon, Jon Dudley Bounds
The Geology Of The Floras Creek Area, Curry County, Oregon, Jon Dudley Bounds
Dissertations and Theses
The Floras Creek area, east of the town of Langlois, near the southwest Oregon coast, includes Colebrooke Schist (a klippe of metamorphosed pelitic sediments of Jurassic age), Jurassic Otter Point Formation (a melange complex), and lower the middle Eocene Roseburg and Lookingglass Formations, part of a sandstone-shale sequence occurring more extensively in other areas. The Colebrooke Schist occurs in the south-central part of the area, bounded on the Otter Point and Roseburg. The Lookingglass is exposed as a small (1.5 sq. km) block in the north-north-west part of the area. Two major structural trends are found in the Floras Creek …
Entropy Measure In Input-Output Analysis, Martin Zwick, Abbas Heiat
Entropy Measure In Input-Output Analysis, Martin Zwick, Abbas Heiat
Systems Science Faculty Publications and Presentations
Applications of Shannon's entropy measure to the matrices of technical and interdependence coefficients, to the final demand vector, and to other aspects of input- output tables are proposed. These entropy measures serve as indices of different types of economic diversity. The relevance of such indices for economic planning and for analyses of economic structural complexity and development is discussed.
Existence Of The Dielectric Constant In Fluids Of Classical Deformable Molecules, John D. Ramshaw
Existence Of The Dielectric Constant In Fluids Of Classical Deformable Molecules, John D. Ramshaw
Physics Faculty Publications and Presentations
The existence of the dielectric constant epsilon is investigated for fluids composed of classical deformable (polarizable) molecules. The development is based upon generalized functional-derivative relations which involve joint distributions in molecular positions r/sub k/ and dipole moments ..mu../sub k/. Sufficient conditions for the existence of epsilon are expressed in terms of the generalized direct correlation function c(12) = c(r/sub 1/, ..mu../sub 1/; r/sub 2/, ..mu../sub 2/). It is found that epsilon exists if -kTc(12) depends only on relative positions and dipole moment directions (in addition to Vertical Bar..mu../sub 1/Vertical Bar and Vertical Bar..mu../sub 2/Vertical Bar), and becomes asymptotic to the …
Hydroxide Binding Equilibrium In Hemerythrin, John David Mccallum
Hydroxide Binding Equilibrium In Hemerythrin, John David Mccallum
Dissertations and Theses
The measurement of the equilibrium constant and the thermodynamic parameters of the binding of hydroxide ions to the active site of hemerythrin, an invertebrate iron containing protein, was done by a new difference spectroscopic method. The method enables accurate measurements of equilibrium constants without accurate knowledge of molar absorptivities or protein concentrations and is novel in that it takes the difference between the two equilibrium mixtures, thus enabling the measurement of equilibrium constants when it is not convenient or possible to produce either substance as a pure reference material.
An Investigation Of Cadmium And Sulfur Reactions In Dimethylsulfoxide, Howard W. Hogle
An Investigation Of Cadmium And Sulfur Reactions In Dimethylsulfoxide, Howard W. Hogle
Dissertations and Theses
The study of the reaction of cadmium and sulfur in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) is presented. Specifically, the reaction of dissolved molecular sulfur in DMSO at temperatures greater than 90°C with freshly precipitated metallic cadmium is followed by UV-visible spectrometry, atomic absorption spectrometry, and Raman spectrometry. Evidence for the formation of a new cadmium-sulfur species and S3- is discussed. In a second reaction, an equilibrium sodium polysulfide solution in DMSO is titrated with a solution of cadmium ion at room temperature and the reaction progress is followed by means of UV-visible spectrometry. A calculation of the average number of polysulfide …
