Studies Of Handicapped Students: Volume 1: Whom Do Teachers Identify As Handicapped, Patricia Craig, Norman Mceachron Dec 1975

Studies Of Handicapped Students: Volume 1: Whom Do Teachers Identify As Handicapped, Patricia Craig, Norman Mceachron

Faculty Publications

This volume reports the first of two studies conducted by the Educa­tional Policy Research Center (EPRC) of SRI for the Assistant Secretary for Education (ASE) on the handicapped school population. The volume presents data on patterns of socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of teacher-identified handicapped students. The purpose of the analysis was to determine whether significant differences in rates of identification of handicapping conditions are associated with family income, race, popula­tion size of place of residence, or geographic location. This study briefly reviews past studies; explores a new set of data to determine its usefulness in determining characteristics of the teacher-identified …


Relaxation Of The Wall-Pinned Magnetization Ringing Mode In Superfluid 3he-B, Richard A. Webb, R. E. Sager, J. C. Wheatley Oct 1975

Relaxation Of The Wall-Pinned Magnetization Ringing Mode In Superfluid 3he-B, Richard A. Webb, R. E. Sager, J. C. Wheatley

Faculty Publications

Observations of the wall-pinned mode in 3He-B allow new magnetic relaxation phenomena to be studied. Excepting the quantitative value of the zero-time ringing frequency, comparison of experiment with theory is satisfactory, including a linear dependence of the square of the ringing period on time and a square-root singularity near Tc in the relaxation parameter.


Nonlinear Parallel Ringing Of Magnetization In Superfluid 3he, Richard A. Webb, R. E. Sager, J. C. Wheatley Oct 1975

Nonlinear Parallel Ringing Of Magnetization In Superfluid 3he, Richard A. Webb, R. E. Sager, J. C. Wheatley

Faculty Publications

Experiments based on an analogy to the ac Josephson effect have shown in both 3He-A and 3He-B that a pairing theory of the superfluidity of 3He is essentially correct. Additional observations of parallel ringing are not in agreement with the simple "pendulum models" used to describe nonlinear dynamic magnetic effects.

Relationship Between The Linear Ringing Frequencies In 3he-A And 3he-B Near The Polycritical Point, Richard A. Webb, R. E. Sager, J. C. Wheatley Sep 1975

Relationship Between The Linear Ringing Frequencies In 3he-A And 3he-B Near The Polycritical Point, Richard A. Webb, R. E. Sager, J. C. Wheatley

Faculty Publications

New measurements of parallel ringing in a quasi-ideal geometry for 3He-B near the temperature and pressure of the polycritical point suggest fB2/fA2∼5/2, where fB and fA are the linear parallel-ringing frequencies at a given temperature near Tc. This result approaches the prediction of theory using the Anderson-Brinkman-Morel and Balian-Werthamer states to describe 3He-A and 3He-B, respectively, and hence the results of Osheroff at melting pressure, but disagrees with earlier observations at pressures near the polycritical point.

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 …

E2 Polynomial Strengths: A Comparison With Shell-Model Results, J. P. Draayer, J. B. French, V. Potbhare, S. S.M. Wong Mar 1975

E2 Polynomial Strengths: A Comparison With Shell-Model Results, J. P. Draayer, J. B. French, V. Potbhare, S. S.M. Wong

Faculty Publications

Polynomial-expansion E2 strengths and sum rules involving (J,T)=(0, 0) and (2, 0) states of (ds)6 are compared with shell-model results. The agreement is excellent. The strength distribution is describable as a narrow linear ridge in the energy space. The level-to-level fluctuations in the total strength are small, as expected from a theorem of Dyson and Mehta; fluctuations in the first and second moments are also small. The effect of collectivity and the partitioning of the sum rules into exothermic and endothermic parts are discussed. © 1975.

Polynomial Expansions For Excitation Strengths, J. P. Draayer, J. B. French, V. Potbhare, S. S.M. Wong Feb 1975

Polynomial Expansions For Excitation Strengths, J. P. Draayer, J. B. French, V. Potbhare, S. S.M. Wong

Faculty Publications

Rapidly convergent expansions for the strength function of an excitation in a many-particle model space are given in terms of orthogonal polynomials defined by the state or partial state densities of the system. Convergence is assured in a wide range of circumstances by the operation of a central limit theorem. Level-to-level fluctuations are in many cases small, their automatic elimination in the statistical smoothing generated by truncating the series then leading to only small errors. © 1975.

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 …

The Design Of Videotape Systems For Legal Education, Dale A. Whitman, Gerald R. Williams Jan 1975

The Design Of Videotape Systems For Legal Education, Dale A. Whitman, Gerald R. Williams

Faculty Publications

Over the past 20 years in which videotape technology has been commercially available, considerable literature has offered encouragement and advice concerning its general educational applications. More recently, a developing body of literature, materials, and practices has brought videotape to the attention of legal educators. One of the chief impediments to realization of the full potential of videotape in legal education, however, is the lack of an adequate description of the necessary facilities and electronic equipment. This comment will discuss the basic uses of videotape in legal education and the physical facilities and equipment (including types, arrangement, and costs) that might …


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.

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 …
