Concerning Rings Of Continuous Functions, Leonard Gillman, Melvin Henriksen

All HMC Faculty Publications and Research

The present paper deals with two distinct, though related, questions, concerning the ring C(X, R) of all continuous real-valued functions on a completely regular topological space X.

The first of these, treated in §§1-7, is the study of what we call P-spaces -- those spaces X such that every prime ideal of the ring C(X, R) is a maximal ideal. The background and motivation for this problem are set forth in §1. The results consist of a number of theorems concerning prime ideals of the ring C(X, R) in general, as well as a series of characterizations of P-spaces in …

Evaluations Of Two Proposed Mechanisms Of Cation Adsorption By Silicate Minerals, Norman D. Larsen

Theses and Dissertations

Previous work done at the Brigham Young University by Andelin^1, Roberts^2, and Olsen^3, has established the mechanism by which xanthate collectors are adsorbed on molybdenite ores to produce the hydrophobic surfaces necessary for flotation. This thesis is an attempt to better understand the mechanism by which the silicate minerals, which are found in conjunction with the ores, become hydrophyllic and as a result are not floated when in contact with air bubbles. It has been previously established that silicate minerals do adsorb cations on their surfaces^4. The present study has been undertaken to more fully understand the mechanism by which …

A Polarographic Study Of Respiration In A Blue-Green Alga, Samuel Leonard Cooke Jr.

Master's Theses

The study of many aspects of physiology is accomplished by the study of respiration under varied conditions. For this purpose, a simple, rapid, and relatively accurate respirometer would be useful. This project was undertaken to investigate the possibility of adapting previously described polarographic techniques to the measurement of respiration.

Investigation Of Inclusions In Armco Ingot Iron, Edwin J. Duncan

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Various chemical and electrolytic separation methods were investigated in an attempt to separate the in­clusions in Armco ingot iron. Residues obtained were X-rayed for identification purposes. The microstruc­tures of this iron were studied with the object of de­termining the relative sizes, locations, and possible compositions of the inclusions.

Polarography Of Indium, John Jackson

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose of this thesis is to study the various aspects of the polarography of indium. The eventual goal would be to develop a method of analyzing indium in unknowns. The investigation is approached by studying the indium ions in various electrolytes and in various concentrations.

Analysis Of Zodiacal Light Recordings, Mclane Downing

Physics & Astronomy ETDs

The object of the zodiacal light work at Capillo Peak is to take comparable records of zodiacal light intensities over an extended period of time. In order to obtain extra-terrestrial isophotes from the original recordings, corrections for loss of light intensity in the atmosphere must be made.

The Effect Of The Bicarbonate Ion On The Respiration Of Excised Roots, Gene W. Miller

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

For many years man has been searching for a cure for lime-induced chlorosis. This disease is prevalent throughout the entire western United States and is characterized by a yellowing of the leaves, destruction of the chlorophyll, and eventual death of the plant. It has brought devastation of fruit orchards in Utah, costing fruit producers millions of dollars. Hardly any county in Utah is free from this destructive nutritional disease.

Variable Field Beta-Ray Spectrometer-Spectrograph, Robert Katz, Milford R. Lee

Robert Katz Publications

A variable field 180° type beta-ray spectrometer- spectrograph has recently been constructed and placed in operation at Kansas State College. The instrument (Fig. 1) is presently operated as a variable field spectrometer of 15-centimeter radius, with data obtained by Geiger counter detection; or as a “fixed field” spectrograph with data obtained through the exposure of photographic film.

A Model For X-Ray Scattering From A Free-Volume Liquid, Charles A. Hewett

Masters Theses

"Investigation of the diffraction of x-rays by liquids was begun soon after the well-known work of Friedrich, Knipping, and Laue proved to be of value in supplying information as to the arrangement of atoms in crystalline matter. Friedrich in 1913 reported x-ray diffraction patterns of Canadian Balsam, paraffin, and amber; three years later Debye and Scherrer, in their work on benzene, (among other liquids investigated) showed that the diffraction phenomenon exhibited was one of interference. Still later, in 1922, Keesom and de Smedt reported similar investigations carried out on argon, nitrogen, and oxygen in the liquid state, the results of …

Radioactivity Of Sm153 And Eu155, M. R. Lee, Robert Katz

Robert Katz Publications

The radiations from Sm¹⁵³ and Eu¹⁵⁵ have been studied by means of a 180-degree, magnetic-focusing, variable-field beta-ray spectrometer-spectrograph using enriched materials. In the disintegration of 47.0-hr Sm¹⁵³, conversion electrons of three gamma rays of energy, 0.0691, 0.1027, 0.548 Mev, and three beta-ray spectra whose end-point energy and relative intensity were 0.255 Mev, 9 percent; 0.685 Mev, 70 percent; 0.795 Mev, 21 percent, respectively, were observed. A fourth beta-ray spectrum of end-point energy 0.62 Mev and intensity less than 6 percent is postulated. A decay scheme in good agreement with these data and with nuclear shell theory …

Evaluation Of Sprinkler Irrigation Systems In Northern Utah, Jay M. Bagley, Wayne D. Criddle

Reports

Summary and Conclusions: Sprinkler irrigation will continue to expand in Utah as well as in other irrigated areas of the world. This method of irrigation is suitable to all farm crops grown in the state and to most soils. It is particularly adapted to steep foothill areas where the water supply can be obtained at higher elevation and pumping is not necessary to develop pressure for the sprinkler systems. Also, much of the irrigated land of the state, particularly along the Wasatch front, is owned and operated by "part-time" farmers. Having the water under complete control and the irrigation schedule …

The Mineralogy Of The Grassy Creek And Saverton Formations, Dirk Pieter Van Duym

Masters Theses

"A study of the mineralogy of the Grassy Creek and Saverton formations of Northeast Missouri was undertaken to determine whether a division is justified, as proposed by some stratigraphers, of these argillaceous beds into two formations. The formations were sampled systematically at surface exposures on the northeast limb of the Lincoln Arch in the vicinity of Hannibal and Louisiana, Missouri. The samples were investigated mineralogically in the laboratory. Previous studies showed that the fossils of the Grassy Creek and Saverton beds were virtually identical. The present study demonstrates that the Grassy Creek and Saverton beds are too near alike in …

Determination Of The Thermal Conductivity Of Sodium Chloride At Elevated Temperatures, Harold Robert Weisbrod

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this research is to investigate possible methods of determining the thermal conductivity of small poorly conducting samples at elevated temperatures, and, further, to assemble a suitable apparatus, followed by measurement of thermal conductivity of one or more cubic lattice samples.

Basic requirements of the apparatus are few. It is first required that the measurement of thermal conductivity be made over a considerable range temperature. It is also preferred that the basic apparatus be placed in a vacuum where undesirable heat flow by convection is eliminated and air corrodible samples are preserved.

The apparatus must use only the …

A Study Of The Emission And Absorption Spectra Of Nacl And Kcl Between 100 A And 1000 A, Paul Henry Blackmon

Masters Theses

"This investigation was begun with the idea of obtaining the emission and absorption spectra of NaCl and KCl in the region between 100 A and 1000 A. From these data, it is hoped that useful information concerning the energy levels of these two substances may be obtained.

The vacuum ultraviolet region is rather difficult to investigate because of the necessity of removing all air, lenses and other absorbing material from the light path. Many writers have enumerated the problems involved and some have indicated that much work still needs to be done in the vacuum ultraviolet.

In order to do …
