Strength Of The Qπ · Qν Interaction And The Strong-Coupled Pseudo-Su(3) Limit, J. P. Draayer, K. J. Weeks, K. T. Hecht Jun 1982

Strength Of The Qπ · Qν Interaction And The Strong-Coupled Pseudo-Su(3) Limit, J. P. Draayer, K. J. Weeks, K. T. Hecht

Faculty Publications

The suitability of pseudo SU(3) strong coupled wave functions in representing the normal parity part of yrast eigenstates of systems with protons and neutrons filling different major shells and interacting with one another via a Qπ · Qν interaction is explored. In addition, we find that the overlaps of yrast eigenstates of H with the leading SU(3) symmetry follow the correlation of Q · Q with H very closely and are large even when Qπ · Qν contributes less than half to the full width of the eigenvalue spectrum of H. The results sugges that the pseudo-SU(3) coupling scheme will …

Faculty Publications

The new neutron-rich isotopes 179Yb and 181,182Lu were produced in multinucleon transfer reactions by irradiating natW/Ta targets with 9 MeV u 136Xe ions, and identified by mass separation and decay spectroscopy. The measured half-lives of 179Yb, 181Lu and 182Lu are 8.1±0.8, 3.5±0.3 and 2.0±0.2 min, respectively. The properties of the excited states of 181,182Hf are discussed. The possibility of studying neutron-rich nuclei outside the classical fission-product regions is demonstrated. © 1982.

High-Temperature Battery Calorimeter, L. D. Hansen, R. H. Hart, D. M. Chen, H. F. Gibbard Apr 1982

High-Temperature Battery Calorimeter, L. D. Hansen, R. H. Hart, D. M. Chen, H. F. Gibbard

Faculty Publications

A battery calorimeter was built for the measurement of thermal energy generation of high-temperature lithium–aluminum/iron sulfide battery cells, which are under development for electric vehicle propulsion and other energy storage applications. The calorimeter was designed with a temperature range of 400˚–500˚C, a detection limit of 1 mW, and an upper limit of heat flow of 50 W. The results of measurements on 200-Ah LiAl/FeS cells were in excellent agreement with the predictions of thermodynamic calculations based on precise measurements of the total cell polarization and the temperature coefficient of the emf. Details of the construction and operation principles of this …

A Hidden-Line Algorithm For Hyperspace, Robert P. Burton, David R. Smith Feb 1982

A Hidden-Line Algorithm For Hyperspace, Robert P. Burton, David R. Smith

Faculty Publications

An object-space hidden-line algorithm for higher-dimensional scenes has been designed and implemented. Scenes consist of convex hulls of any dimension, each of which is compared against the edges of all convex hulls not eliminated by a hyperdimensional clipper, a depth test after sorting and a minimax text. Hidden and visible elements are determined in accordance with the dimensionality of the selected viewing hyperspace. When shape alone is the attribute of interest, hidden-line elimination need be performed only in that hyperspace. The algorithm is of value in the production of shadows of hyperdimensional models, including but not limited to four-dimensional space-time …

Conductance In Restricted-Dimensionality Accumulation Layers, A. B. Fowler, A. Hartstein, Richard A. Webb Jan 1982

Conductance In Restricted-Dimensionality Accumulation Layers, A. B. Fowler, A. Hartstein, Richard A. Webb

Faculty Publications

Conductance has been studied in metal-oxide-silicon field-effect transistor accumulation-layer samples in which it is possible to constrict the channel to small dimensions both perpendicular to the surface and perpendicular to the channel. A temperature-dependent conductance σ=σ0exp[-(T0/T)n] is observed, where n=1/2 for small channel widths and n=1/3 for larger channel widths. It is believed that this behavior arises from a transition from one-dimensional to two-dimensional variable-range hopping in the sample.

Physical Science Workshop Course For Elementary Teachers, Glen T. Clayton, Harry D. Downing, Thomas O. Callaway Jan 1982

Physical Science Workshop Course For Elementary Teachers, Glen T. Clayton, Harry D. Downing, Thomas O. Callaway

Faculty Publications

Science for elementary school grades K-6 varies somewhat in content from one textbook series to another, but it is fairly common that 40-60% of the material covered is directly related to physics. These texts suggest that certain learning activities such as experiments, demonstrations, and observations be carried out by the teacher and the class. Often the apparatus for a learning activity is to be constructed from simple, readily available materials. The typical elementary school teacher has had little experience in performing experiments and is often frustrated in his/her attempts at carrying out the suggested learning activity. To meet this need …

Tort Law: Expanding The Scope Of Recovery Without Loss Of Jury Control, David A. Fischer Jan 1982

Tort Law: Expanding The Scope Of Recovery Without Loss Of Jury Control, David A. Fischer

Faculty Publications

This article will analyze the types of changes that are taking place by examining three expanding areas of tort law: liability for negligently inflicted mental distress, negligently inflicted pure pecuniary loss, and harm caused by defective products. This examination will demonstrate that the scope of liability can be increased in at least two ways. One is by formally expanding the scope of existing causes of action, e.g., relaxing arbitrary barriers to liability or expanding the type of damages which may be recovered. A second method is by relaxing judicial control over the jury. This relaxation of control can take place …

Smoking In The Soviet Union, R. Cooper Jan 1982

Smoking In The Soviet Union, R. Cooper

Faculty Publications

Although it is the fourth largest producer of tobacco in the world, relatively little has been written about the problem in the USSR. Since the economy is centrally planned and marketing of tobacco products is under direct government control it might be expected that the Soviet Union would implement different, perhaps, more effective, antismoking campaigns. Unfortunately, this has not been the case.

Recent Trends In Coronary Risk Factors In The Ussr, R. Cooper, A. Schatzkin Jan 1982

Recent Trends In Coronary Risk Factors In The Ussr, R. Cooper, A. Schatzkin

Faculty Publications

The Soviet Union has experienced an increase in the incidence of coronary heart disease over the last 15 years sufficient to result in an overall deterioration in the health of adults. The distribution of coronary risk factors, and the secular trends in diet and cigarette consumption provide a potential explanation for the upsurge in death rates. The animal fat content of the Soviet diet has been steadily enriched since the 1950s and cigarette production increased 72 per cent from 1959 to 1980. The post-Stalin orientation of the Soviet economy toward a policy of motivating the work force primarily through the …

Distributional Boundary Values Of Harmonic And Analytic Functions, R. Estrada, R. P. Kanwal Jan 1982

Distributional Boundary Values Of Harmonic And Analytic Functions, R. Estrada, R. P. Kanwal

Faculty Publications

A theory for distributional boundary values of harmonic and analytic functions is presented. In this analysis there arise several indicators that measure the growth of these functions near the boundaries. An extension of the Phragmén-Lindelöf maximum principle is derived. Furthermore, the algebraic properties of the space of real periodic distributions are studied. By introducing a new product, the harmonic product, the boundary conditions involving harmonic functions are transformed into ordinary differential equations. © 1982.

The Role Of Economic Analysis In Public Range Management, B. Delworth Gardner Jan 1982

The Role Of Economic Analysis In Public Range Management, B. Delworth Gardner

Faculty Publications

Economic analysis has a vital, if not indispensable, role to play in the management decisions of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM} if the national welfare is to be served effectively. This rather sweeping conclusion is justified by the nature of the management problems faced by the BLM and by the unique view of the world provided by the field of economics.

Management And Staff Development: Carl Workshop Proceedings, Jo Bell Whitlatch, Celia Bakke, Judy Reynolds Jan 1982

Management And Staff Development: Carl Workshop Proceedings, Jo Bell Whitlatch, Celia Bakke, Judy Reynolds

Faculty Publications

Staff development is a relatively new addition to the traditional responsibilities of managers. Managers have always been concerned about production and quality of product but not so formally about staff development responsibilities. Library workers themselves did not have all of the expectations about being developed on the job. The workshop theme also touches on such issues as the professional role, collective bargaining, and the effects of new and rapid developments in library technology upon management.
