Close Coupling Test Of Classical And Semiclassical Cross Sections For Rotationally Inelastic Ar-N2 Collisions, Russell T. Pack Apr 1975

Close Coupling Test Of Classical And Semiclassical Cross Sections For Rotationally Inelastic Ar-N2 Collisions, Russell T. Pack

Faculty Publications

Accurate quantum mechanical close coupling (CC) integral cross sections are reported for rotationally inelastic Ar-N2 collisions at room temperature using an empirical intermolecular potential. These cross sections are used to test the infinite order sudden (IOS) approximation and the results of several methods [classical trajectories (CT), full sudden (SA), generalized phase shift (GPS), and classical limit generalized phase shift (CGPS)] as reported in the preceding paper by Pattengill. The IOS approximation works very well for cross sections involving low rotational states. The CT method works well for all the cross sections examined, justifying the popular belief that the rotational motion …

Conifer Wood From The Upper Jurassic Of Utah; I, Xenoxylon Morrisonense Sp. Nov., William D. Tidwell, David A. Medlyn Feb 1975

Conifer Wood From The Upper Jurassic Of Utah; I, Xenoxylon Morrisonense Sp. Nov., William D. Tidwell, David A. Medlyn

Faculty Publications

A new species of conifer wood, Xenoxylon morrisonense, is described from the Morrison Formation on the Colorado Plateau. It is compared with other species of Xenoxylon, with X. latiporosum being the closest. Xenoxylon morrisonense differs from X. latiporosum in its marked indentations, simple pits on the horizontal and tangential walls of ray cells, absence of crassulae, presence of wood parenchyma, and thin borders on podocarpoid type crossfield pits. The origin of the septa in the tracheids is summarized, and the possible affinity of Xenoxylon with the Podocarpaceae is considered.


The Development And Analysis Of Base Line Data For The Estimation Of Incidence In The Handicapped School Age Population, Patricia Craig, Norman Mceachron Jan 1975

The Development And Analysis Of Base Line Data For The Estimation Of Incidence In The Handicapped School Age Population, Patricia Craig, Norman Mceachron

Faculty Publications

The purpose of this study was, first, to examine and critique the more popular incidence sources for handicapping conditions in the school age population, and second, to establish reasonably reliable base line data on which the future analysis of special population groups can be grounded. On the basis of this study, we suggest that the National Center of Health Statistics estimates become the primary source for further analysis due to both their reliability and comparability. It is questionable whether these figures could be refined further by conducting an independent national survey of school children. Data reliability is important, since even …

Repeated Acquisition Of Response Sequences: Stimulus Control And Drugs, Donald M. Thompson Jan 1975

Repeated Acquisition Of Response Sequences: Stimulus Control And Drugs, Donald M. Thompson

Faculty Publications

Pigeons obtained food by making four responses on three keys in a specified sequence, e.g., left, right, center, right. Under the “tandem‐learning” condition, all three keys were the same color throughout the response sequence, and the sequence was changed from session to session. After total errors per session (overall accuracy) and within‐session error reduction (learning) had stabilized, the effects of varying doses of phenobarbital and chlordiazepoxide were assessed. For comparison, the drug tests were also conducted under a “performance” condition, in which the response sequence was the same from session to session, and under corresponding “chain‐learning” and “chain‐performance” conditions, where …

Let Pt (x, ·) denote the Wiener measure in an abstract Wiener space (H, B) with variance parameter t > 0 and mean x in B. It is shown that if [FORMULA PRESENTED]; 0 and x are fixed, then the function ptf defined by [FORMULA PRESENTED] for h in H is infinitely Gross differentiable at x. The first two derivatives are given by [FORMULA PRESENTED], where h and k are in H. Moreover, [FORMULA PRESENTED] is a Hilbert-Schmidt operator and [FORMULA PRESENTED]. An application to Uhlenbeck- Ornstein process is also given. © 1975 Pacific Journal of Mathematics.


The Impact Of Suburbanization On Fluvial Geomorphology, William L. Graf Jan 1975

The Impact Of Suburbanization On Fluvial Geomorphology, William L. Graf

Faculty Publications

Analysis of aerial photography for the period 1950–1971 and field data collected from 1970 to 1974 indicate that in the Denver area suburban development has caused significant changes in fluvial systems. By first introducing large quantities of sediment and later by increasing surface runoff, suburban development leads to an expansion of floodplains followed by downcutting of streams. As areas of suburban development increase, greater percentages of stream lengths are dominated by transportation, and lesser percentages are dominated by erosion and deposition.

The New Due Process: Rights And Remedies, Doug R. Rendleman Jan 1975

The New Due Process: Rights And Remedies, Doug R. Rendleman

Faculty Publications

This article discusses the "new" due process. Perhaps new is a misnomer. Due process was not discovered recently. It has been around a long time protecting varying interests from arbitrary action. The discovery called the "new" due process is merely that procedural protections are not so limited as previously thought. This article will examine the interests encompassed by the new due process and the remedial apparatus now being developed to protect those interests.

Some Early And Current Studies Of Rural Churches., William H. Drier

Faculty Publications

The paper reviews about 25 major studies printed since 1920; and in turn; these refer to some 75 other studies about rural churches; their location; numbers; ministers; denominational arrangements; and supporting population per church on a county level. On the role of rural social science in Theological education; one study reports that the pastor is not only a man of God but a man of knowledge; not only in theological but in all fields of study. On the basis of these studies covering 50 years; the author states that while rural is by definition non-metropolitan; people everywhere since the 1960's …

Electrochemical Reduction Of Molybdate In The Presence Of Zinc Chloride In Molten Lithium Chloride-Potassium Chloride Eutectic, R. Cvetkovic, Branko N. Popov, H. A. Laitinen Jan 1975

Electrochemical Reduction Of Molybdate In The Presence Of Zinc Chloride In Molten Lithium Chloride-Potassium Chloride Eutectic, R. Cvetkovic, Branko N. Popov, H. A. Laitinen

Faculty Publications

Two chronopotentiometric waves were observed for the electrochemical reduction of molybdate in the presence of zinc chloride, with quarter-wave potentials of –1.5V and –1.75V vs. the Pt(II)/Pt reference electrode, respectively. It was observed that an increase in the molybdate concentration causes a decrease of the first transition time indicating a chemical reaction between ZnCl2 (which is reduced at –1.5V) and Li2MoO4 in the melt forming ZnMoO4 which is sparingly dissociated in LiCl-KCl eutectic. The equilibrium constant for the observed reaction was calculated. X-ray powder diffraction patterns of the reduction product of ZnMoO4 have been …

A Contextual Approach To Investigating Verbal And Nonverbal Behaviors, Douglas M. Brooks, Barry Wilson

Faculty Publications

This investigation utilized a recent concept developed by researchers and theoreticians studying nonverbal behavior--the contextual framework. Instruments of demonstrated reliability were employed to record simultaneous verbal and nonverbal data within the selected contextual framework of student-initiated questions. Data was collected at the University of Northern Iowa; Malcolm Price Laboratory School. The study sample included 15 teachers from grades one through twelve and 60 pupils. Pupils were placed in categories by their teachers: (1) accepting; (2) concerned; (3) indifferent; and (4) rejecting. Objectives of the investigation included: (1) to investigate physical proximity as a quantifiable dimension of nonverbal behavior; (2) to …

Constitutional Allocation Of The War Powers Between The President And Congress: 1787-88, W. Taylor Reveley Iii Oct 1974

Constitutional Allocation Of The War Powers Between The President And Congress: 1787-88, W. Taylor Reveley Iii

Faculty Publications

For some time the international community has been keenly interested in the foreign uses to which America puts its military. The nature of these uses has traditionally been affected by the manner in which the Constitution divides the war powers between the President and Congress. This allocation of war-peace authority, in tum, is the product of a number of influences, among them the intentions of the Framers and Ratifiers for the text which they drafted and approved. Their war-power debates, as we shall see, have heavy international overtones.These debates have not been neglected, especially during America's recent involvement in Indochina. …

Constructive Cash Distributions In A Partnership: How And When They Occur, Robert S. Parker Jr., John W. Lee

Faculty Publications

Constructive cash distributions to partners with possible concomitant severe tax impact can occur whenever a partners share of firm or individual liabilities is cut. This reduction of liabilities can be triggered by a variety of typical partnership transactions. Messrs. Parker arid Lee analyze those transactions under which there is the danger of unforeseen taxation and urge extreme caution.

Retroactive Allocations To New Partners: An Analysis Of The Area After Rodman, John W. Lee, Robert S. Parker Jr.

Faculty Publications

In the recent Rodman case, the Tax Court has held that a partner newly admitted near year-end must report his share of the full year's partnership profits. Messrs. Lee and Parker analyze the status of retroactive partnership allocations in view of Rodman, the first decision to expressly sanction retroactive allocations of income (and implicitly of losses) to new partners, and reallocations under Section 704.
