Lattice Dynamics Of Naf, Arnold Karo, John R. Hardy

John R. Hardy Papers

The results of an extended calculation of the normal modes of the NaF lattice are presented. Three models have been considered : a "rigid-ion" (RI) model, a "deformation-dipole" model with central F^--F^- short- range interactions (DDNNN), and a “deformation-dipole" model including both central F^--F^- interactions and a noncentral component in the first-neighbor, short-range interactions [DDNNN(NC)]. For each of these models we have derived frequency spectra for both 300 and 0°K input parameters, the associated dispersion curves for symmetry directions, Debye characteristic temperatures Θ_D, moment functions ω_D(n), and the …

Taxonomy Of The Common Dolphins Of The Eastern Pacific Ocean, Richard C. Banks, Robert L. Brownell Jr.

United States Department of Commerce: Staff Publications

Delphinus bairdii Dall is a species of dolphin distinct from D. delphis Linnaeus, with which it has usually been synonymized. D. bairdii has a longer rostrum relative to the zygomatic width of the skull; the ratio of these measurements falls at 1.55 or above for bairdii and 1.53 and below for delphis. In the eastern Pacific Ocean, D. bairdii is found in the Gulf of California and along the west coast of Baja California, Mexico; D. delphis is presently found in the waters off California. Until approximately the beginning of the present century, bairdii occurred farther north in the …

Transferable Drug Resistance Among Enterobacteriaceae Isolated From Human Urinary Tract Infections, Donna G. Sieckmann, Norman D. Reed, Carl E. Georgi

Papers in Microbiology

Fifteen sulfonamide-resistant cultures isolated from urinary tract infections in eastern Nebraska were screened for transferable drug resistance by three methods. Seven of the 15 resistant cultures could transfer resistance of varying levels to two or more chemotherapeutic agents. Transfer of drug resistance occurred without accompanying transfer of chromosomal traits and required cell to cell contact. In mixed culture, the number of drug-resistant recipients increased exponentially, reaching a plateau 2 hr after mixing. Spontaneous or artificial elimination of resistance was found to be a rare event. In addition, several drug-sensitive isolates from urinary tract infections were shown to be competent recipients …

Land Use Changes And Sharp-Tailed Grouse Breeding Behavior, Leonard H. Sisson

Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: White Papers, Conference Presentations, and Manuscripts

The sharp-tailed grouse formerly inhabited much of the area which is now Nebraska. The sharp-tailed, along with its near relative, the greater prairie chicken, disappeared from parts of its former range which were put into intense cultivation. The 20,000 square mile area of the Sandhills were not suited to such cultivation and consequently is the remaining stronghold of the sharp-tailed in Nebraska. It is one of the more important sharp-tail ranges remaining in the United States.

With continuing decreases in suitable sharp-tail habitat throughout its former range in the United States, it is important to understand land use trends and …

Western Ironweed: Research On Anatomy, Physiology, Life History And Control, M. K. Mccarty, C. J. Scifres

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

Western ironweed (Vernonia baldwini Torr.) is a member of a widespread and diverse genus. The genus is characterized by perennial herbs and shrubs. Weaver and Darland listed the increase of western ironweed, at one time sparsely distributed, as an indication of degeneration of the true prairie. They described the invasion, spread, and ultimate dominance of western ironweed in many pastures after the drought years. Weaver measured ironweed roots to a depth of 11 or 12 ft., and remarked that it was one of "the most abundant and worst weeds in native pastures derived from the true prairie." Research has …

An Ecological Study Of Timberline And Alpine Areas, Mount Lincoln, Park County, Colorado, Irving H. Blake, Abigail K. Blake

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

During the short alpine growing season of 1945 the authors had the opportunity of studying conditions and biota on Mount Lincoln, Park County, Colorado, in an attempt to evaluate the ecological conditions and animal communities of the area. Of the large amount of taxonomic and ecological zoology published on the state, most has been in the field of autecology, and, except in the province of aquatic studies, little has appeared bearing on synecological relations, especially among invertebrates. The marked differences between the physiography, climatology, and biology of timberline, alpine, and other stations seemed to offer a field well worthy of …

Acanthocephala Of Louisiana Picidae With Description Of A New Species Of Mediorhynchus, Brent B. Nickol

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

One hundred eighty-three woodpeckers of eight species collected in Louisiana were examined for Acanthocephala. Only the red-bellied woodpecker, Centurus carolinus, was infected. One of 53 was parasitized by an immature specimen of Mediorhynchus grandis; three by Centrorhynchus spinosus; 12 by Mediorhynchus centurorum sp. n. The new species of Mediorhynchus is distinguished by a trunk which is very narrow in the anterior 3 mm, but is suddenly expanded farther posteriad. Proboscis armature of 22 to 24 slightly spiral rows of six hooks and four or five spines each differs from all other species of the genus except M. …

Lattice Dynamics And Second-Order Raman Spectrum Of Naf, John R. Hardy, A. M. Karo, I. W. Morrison, C. T. Sennett, J. P. Russell

John R. Hardy Papers

The second-order Raman spectrum of NaF has been measured using an argon laser source. For a light beam incident along the [010] direction, polarized along the [001] direction, and viewed along the [100] direction, the scattered radiation is almost completely polarized. It is shown theoretically that it is possible to account for the polarization and the detailed shape of the observed spectrum within the experimental resolution using a Raman polarizability tensor whose second derivatives with respect to nuclear displacements depend only on the positions of first neighbors in the crystal, provided one uses the phonon frequencies derived from a deformation …

Changes In Body Weight And Composition Of Adult Nongravid Female Rats Deprived Of Dietary Protein, W. G. Pond, L. Dale Van Vleck, E. F. Walker Jr., C. F. Eisenhard, J. R. O'Connor

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Seventy-six young adult nongravid female rats of the Carworth strain were used in two experiments to study the effect of dietary protein deprivation on body weight, feed consumption, body composition and serum protein concentration. Semipurified diets containing glucose, corn oil, vitamins and minerals with or without casein (protein-free = PF, 14% casein = C) were fed ad libitum in both experiments to rats caged in individual wire-bottom cages. Feeding the PF diet for up to 26 days resulted in a continuous weight loss over the entire period. The average loss in body weight as a percentage of initial weight of …
