Phase Changes In Solid Cyclohexanol, William T. Griffith May 1964

Phase Changes In Solid Cyclohexanol, William T. Griffith

Physics & Astronomy ETDs

Cyclohexanol is one of a group of organic compounds which exist in a “plastic crystal" solid phase, which is intermediate in its properties between the liquid phase and the solid phases stable at lower temperatures. It has been well established that the odd properties of the plastic crystal phase are due to the relatively unhindered rotation of the molecules about their lattice positions. At temperatures often considerably below the freezing point, these compounds undergo a solid-solid phase transformation in which this rotational freedom is lost. The heats and entropies of transformation at this lower transition point are generally larger than …


Variations In The Dielectric Constants Of Camphor And Camphene Under Pressure, Donald R. Wheeler May 1964

Variations In The Dielectric Constants Of Camphor And Camphene Under Pressure, Donald R. Wheeler

Physics & Astronomy ETDs

Camphor and camphene are two of a group of substances known as plastic solids. The plastic solids are all characterized by the ease with which they can be deformed. It has been suggested that this property is a result of a great number of mobile vacancies in the crystal lattice. Nabarro and Herring explain the "creep", characteristic of metals, in this way.


On The Optimal Search Problem, Wallace E. Franck Jr. May 1964

On The Optimal Search Problem, Wallace E. Franck Jr.

Mathematics & Statistics ETDs

Suppose a searcher is at a given point on a line and wishes to locate an object which is known to be somewhere on the line. Suppose further that there is a probabilistic law which governs the location of the object on the line. The searcher can only locate the object by traveling to the point where it is. He desires to formulate a search plan which will minimize the average distance traveled before locating the object. The only initial choice he has is as to which direction to go. Then he must decide how far to go before turning …


The Geology Of The Northern And Eastern Parts Of The Ladron Mountains, Socorro County, New Mexico., Bruce A. Black May 1964

The Geology Of The Northern And Eastern Parts Of The Ladron Mountains, Socorro County, New Mexico., Bruce A. Black

Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs

The Laron Mountains are & westward-tilted fault block and an important western bounding structure of the Rio Grande depression in the Albuquerque-Belen basin. The main massif is a complex of both igneous and metamorphic Precambrian rocks. It consists of a thick sequence of steeply east-dipping quartzite & and schists which are predominantly a product of low- to medium- grade regional Precambrian metamorphism. Granitic gneiss is ptygmatically folded with abundant schist remnant in a large area on the eastern flank of the mountains and represents an ultrametamorphic product of anatexis. All metamorphic rocks have been invaded by two later Precambrian granites. …


The Nuclear-Active Component Of Extensive Air Showers, E. Royce Fletcher May 1964

The Nuclear-Active Component Of Extensive Air Showers, E. Royce Fletcher

Physics & Astronomy ETDs

In 1900 Wilson (1900; 1901a; 1901b) in England and Elster and Geitel (1900) in Germany began a series of experiments which were ultimately to lead to the discovery of cosmic rays. Using an electroscope mounted in a grounded metal box, they were able to show that the air in a closed vessel has a slight residual conductivity. After careful experiments had eliminated insulator leakage and charged dust particles as possible sources of the observed current, Wilson speculated that the ionization might be due to the presence of some very penetrating radiation coming from outside the atmosphere. Unfortunately, however, he abandoned …


The Design Criteria Of A Phoswich Transducer., Richard L. Crawford Apr 1964

The Design Criteria Of A Phoswich Transducer., Richard L. Crawford

Electrical and Computer Engineering ETDs

This dissertation is an experimental and theoretical treatise on the design criteria of a phoswich transducer. The major emphasis is on the application in a gamma-ray spectrometer. The conversion efficiency, gamma-ray cross sections, response to charged particles, luminescence decay time, spectral response and physical qualities are discussed, in considerable detail, in making the optimum choices for the inorganic crystal and the organic phosphor which will act as the charged particle anticoincident shield. The effect of the thickness of the anticoincident shield on resolution, the percentage of gamma-rays absorbed, the percentage of gamma-rays that are atten­uated in energy and the lower …

Petrography Of A Cyclical Sequence, Upper Madera Limestone, Sandia Mountains, New Mexico, Fred Yale Mar 1964

Petrography Of A Cyclical Sequence, Upper Madera Limestone, Sandia Mountains, New Mexico, Fred Yale

Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs

Chemical determinations of calcium and magnesium carbonates, iron, Kjeldahl nitrogen, and sulfate with supplementary petrographic thin-section and insoluble-residue studies and differential thermal analyses were used to study a Virgilian sedimentary cycle in the upper Madera Limestone of New Mexico. In 120 meters of section 4 cycles were recognized; one of these was studied in detail. Cyclic subsidence and subsequent basin filling produced a sequence of gross environmental changes accomplished by organisms in a definite ecological succession. Biologic communities were progressively modified by the changing marine sedimentary cycle. The cycles of the upper Madera Limestone begin with a lower fusulinid claystone, …

The Effect Of Cesium Vapor On The Emission Characteristics Of Uranium Carbide At Elevated Pressures, Philip W. Kidd Mar 1964

The Effect Of Cesium Vapor On The Emission Characteristics Of Uranium Carbide At Elevated Pressures, Philip W. Kidd

Physics & Astronomy ETDs

The saturated emission current from uranium carbide in the presence of cesium vapor were measured for four different bath temperatures: 167˚C, 197˚C, 227˚C, and 250˚C (the cesium arrival rates μa, in atoms/cm2, were 3x1018, 1x1019, 3x1019 and 6x1019). The measurements were made with a “plasma anode” type tube immersed in a constant temperature oil bath. The design of the tube is shown, and the electronic circuitry is given with an explanation of the method of measurement. The experimental data for “electron emission vs 1000/T” was plotted for the experimental …

Some Information - Theoretical And Empirical Techniques In Statistical Inference, Chaitanya Swarup Feb 1964

Some Information - Theoretical And Empirical Techniques In Statistical Inference, Chaitanya Swarup

Mathematics & Statistics ETDs

This study is divided into two seemingly disjoint parts -- one containing EMPIRICAL (Bayesian and Non-Bayesian) approach and the second containing INFORMATION-THEORETICAL techniques in problems of statistical estimation and tests of hypotheses. But in the end, both approaches have been brought together for solving ENCODING problems of COMMUNICATION THEORY to unify the whole dissertation.

Slope Deposits Of The Pennsylvanian Haymond Formation, Marathon Region, Texas, Walter E. Dean Jr. Jan 1964

Slope Deposits Of The Pennsylvanian Haymond Formation, Marathon Region, Texas, Walter E. Dean Jr.

Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs

The Haymond Formation of the Marathon basin, Texas consists mainly of a sequence of more than 12,000 siltstone-shale couplets which, combined with the similar couplets of the older Tesnus Formation, form a sequence of "flysch" sediments more than 10,000 feet thick deposited on the eastern slope of the subsiding Llanoria geosyncline. The Haymond Formation contains no diagnostic fossils; its age is known only as Lower Pennsylvanian, probably Atokan.

Energy Migration In Rare Earth Complexes, John Jerome Freeman Nov 1963

Energy Migration In Rare Earth Complexes, John Jerome Freeman

Chemistry and Chemical Biology ETDs

Complexes of trivalent samarium, europium, terbium, and dysprosium were prepared for investigations of the luminescence properties of complexed rare earth ions. Rare earth chilates derived from benzoylacetone, dibenzoylmethane, and acetylacetone; rare earth chlorides solvated with water and deuterium oxide; and rare earth oxides dissolved in sodium metaphosphate glasses were synthesized for these studies.
