High Pressure Spectral Chemistry Of Selected Organic Compounds, Frank William Linsley
High Pressure Spectral Chemistry Of Selected Organic Compounds, Frank William Linsley
Theses and Dissertations
The series of compounds indicated by the formular C_6H_5-(CH=CH)n-C_6H_5 change in color from white (colorless) to yellow to orange to red to deep red as n increases from 1 to 12. Stilbene is the first compound of this series (n=1). Under pressure, exerted by a diamond anvil press, stilbene can be seen to change color from white to yellow to red as increasing pressure is applied. Similar color changes are observed for the compounds where n=2,3, and 4 when subjected to similar pressure. This study records and reports the spectra versus pressure for these compounds.
Calorigenic Effects Of Thyroxine And Triiodothyronine On Rat Diaphragm., Robert Lee Chambers
Calorigenic Effects Of Thyroxine And Triiodothyronine On Rat Diaphragm., Robert Lee Chambers
Theses and Dissertations
Since the isolation of triiodothyronine (T3) by Pitt-Rivers and Gross (1953) several questions as to its role as a thyroid hormone arose. Does T3 have the same or different actions than that of thyroxine (T4 )? Is T3 an emergency hormone, since its synthesis relative to T4 is greatly increased during periods of low iodine intake and its response time is I/5th that of T4 (Ackerman and Arons, 1958)? Are there any interactions modifying their respective actions?
Donor Properties Of Dimethylsulfoniumcyclopentadienylide And Tetramethylenesulfoniumcyclopentadienylide In Metal Complexes ; Part Ii. The Attempted Preparation Of Boron Tricyanide, Gary Scott Barney
Theses and Dissertations
Part I.--Complexes of dimethylsulfoniumcyclopentadientylide and tetramethylenesulfoniumcyclopentadienylide with metal ions were studied in order to determine the coordination site on the ylids. Infrared spectra indicate that the ylids are coordinated through the cyclopentadienyl ring in all complexes except for the Hg(CN)2 complexes. Coordination-of the HgI2, CdI2, ZnCl2, and AgNO3 complexes is through the number one position on the ring as suggested by NMR data. Infrared and NMR data strongly indicate that the ylids in the Hg(CN)2 complexes are coordinated through sulfur. Part II.--The only method given in the chemical literature for the preparation of boron tricyanide could not be duplicated in …
The Introduction Of Asian History Into Utah High Schools, Carol M. Hinckley
The Introduction Of Asian History Into Utah High Schools, Carol M. Hinckley
Theses and Dissertations
Asian history is increasingly recognized by experts as a necessary part of a high school student's world history experience. Asia is important for them to study because of its great intrinsic value and because of Asia's relationship with the United States in the future. To date, however, in Utah there are no separate Asian history courses being taught and few teachers include Asia as an important part of the world history course.
Schools in other parts of the nation have instituted practical Asian history courses and Utah can follow their example. Teachers should consider how much time can be devoted …
The Effect Of Alternate Year Rest Rotation Grazing On Carbohydrate And Nitrogen Reserves In Crested Wheatgrass, James B. Wood
The Effect Of Alternate Year Rest Rotation Grazing On Carbohydrate And Nitrogen Reserves In Crested Wheatgrass, James B. Wood
Theses and Dissertations
A field and laboratory study was made to determine the effect of alternate year rest rotation grazin in stem bases and root crowns of crested wheatgrass. Analyses for carbohydrate reserves and total nitrogen were made for the following treatments: (1) exclosures; (2) open range; (3) agronomy cages. Both carbohydrate concentration and total nitrogen content showed differences between sampling dates but did not show differences as a result of grazing treatment on individual dates. Differences between sampling dates were associated with season and growth stage of plants. Although differences due to grazing teatment were not shown for individual dates the combined …

Asymptotic Evaluation Of Wkb Matrix Elements. Ii. Use Of Langer's Uniform Asymptotic Wavefunctions, Wesley D. Smith, Russell T. Pack
Asymptotic Evaluation Of Wkb Matrix Elements. Ii. Use Of Langer's Uniform Asymptotic Wavefunctions, Wesley D. Smith, Russell T. Pack
Faculty Publications
An improvement in a previous procedure for the analytic asymptotic evaluation of integrals arising in the quantum-mechanical theory of inelastic molecular collisions is presented. The integrals are evaluated using Langer's uniform asymptotic wavefunctions and the higher-order saddle-point or steepest-descents method. It is found that the Langer functions give no better results than WKB functions, but the higher-order steepest-descents corrections produce a marked improvement. The result is a simple method for evaluating a large class of integrals with an error of 0.1%-2.1%.

A Study Of The Factors Affecting Lds Institute Enrollment Among Students From Homes Of Parents Who Are Inactive In The Lds Church, Boyd Leslie Robertson
Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this study is to determine if there are differences in characteristics of home environment, school environment, or within the students themselves, between college students enrolling in classes taught at the LDS Institute of Religion, who come from homes where both parents are "inactive" in the LDS church, and a similar group of students who do not enroll.
A History Of The Deseret Alphabet, Larry Ray Wintersteen
A History Of The Deseret Alphabet, Larry Ray Wintersteen
Theses and Dissertations
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints during the years 1852-1877, introduced to its membership a form of rhetoric (writing system) called the deseret alphabet (phonetic alphabet). This experiment was intended to alleviate the problem of non-communication which was created by the great influx of foreign speaking Saints into the great Salt Lake Valley.
The alphabet was developed and encouraged by the Prophet Brigham Young and a few followers. Much to their dismay the members of the Church did not have the same vision of its workability as did its promoters.
This new alphabet appears not to have met …

The Dream Mine: A Study In Mormon Folklore, Joe Stanley Graham
The Dream Mine: A Study In Mormon Folklore, Joe Stanley Graham
Theses and Dissertations
In September of 1894, John Hyrum Koyle, Jr., said that he was shown in a dream or vision a large, rich deposit of gold and an underground storehouse of artifacts hidden by people of Ancient America. This dream was the beginning of a mining venture which has never produced anything of value, has been opposed vigorously by both officials of the LDS Church and the State, yet has claimed supporters numbered in the thousands.
The mine has profoundly affected (and continues to affect) the lives of many families who have come into the sphere of its influence. The lore of …

The Principles And Nature Of Consecration And Stewardship As Taught In The Bible And Modern Scripture And By The Prophets, Seers, And Revelators Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints, Edward J. Brandt
Theses and Dissertations
This study analyzes the intent and primary bases of the L.D.S. concepts of Zion, consecration, and stewardship as it applies to the individual. Only the scripture and the statements of the Prophets, Seers, and Revelators of the L.D.S. Church are considered. An exhaustive history of consecration or stewardship is not provided. No attempt is made to establish Church doctrine.
Major conclusions are: (1) the most important definition of Zion is the "pure in heart" who, when a community, are the perfect society; (2) the concept of consecration is to wholly love God, and is achieved through the gospel of Jesus …

The School Of The Prophets: Its Development And Influence In Utah Territory, John R. Patrick
Theses and Dissertations
Four separate and distinct Schools of the Prophets were organized by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Joseph Smith Jr. organized the first school in the spring of 1833, and it functioned periodically until 1837. Brigham Young organized the second school in December 1867, as a part of the University of the State of Deseret. It functioned until August of 1872 when Brigham Young disbanded it because members failed to adhere to its rules. Three months later he reorganized on a limited basis a third school in Salt Lake City. This school existed until the summer of 1874 …
