Radiative Kaon Capture On Deuterium And The Λn Scattering Lengths, William J. Fickinger, D. K. Robinson Aug 1990

Radiative Kaon Capture On Deuterium And The Λn Scattering Lengths, William J. Fickinger, D. K. Robinson

Faculty Scholarship

The photon spectrum from K-d→Λnγ at rest has been measured for the first time. We obtained the branching ratio, in the end-point region, of (1.89±0.12±0.28)×10-3 where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. We have found that the shape of the photon energy spectrum is consistent with the distribution calculated by Workman and Fearing with Λn scattering lengths and effective ranges predicted by the Nijmegen group.

Territorial Governments And The Limits Of Formalism, Gary S. Lawson Jul 1990

Territorial Governments And The Limits Of Formalism, Gary S. Lawson

Faculty Scholarship

For much of this nation's history, the governance of American territories, such as the island of Guam, was one of the most significant and oft-litigated problems of American constitutional law. In modern times, however, issues of territorial governance have been reduced to the status of constitutional arcana. Professor Lawson maintains that this frequently neglected problem of territorial governance is an ideal context in which to conduct the resurgent modern debate concerning separation of powers theory. Accordingly, Professor Lawson undertakes a formalist analysis of the principal institutions of American territorial governance, finding all of them incompatible with a formalist understanding of …

Conflict Of Laws (1990), Sharon N. Freytag, James P. George, Michelle E. Mccoy Jul 1990

Conflict Of Laws (1990), Sharon N. Freytag, James P. George, Michelle E. Mccoy

Faculty Scholarship

Conflicts of laws occur when foreign elements appear in a lawsuit. Nonresident litigants, incidents in sister states or foreign countries, and lawsuits from other jurisdictions represent foreign elements that may create problems of judicial jurisdiction, choice of law, or recognition of foreign judgments, respectively. This Article reviews Texas conflicts of law during the Survey period from late 1988 through 1989, discussing cases from Texas state and federal courts. The Article excludes cases involving federal-state conflicts, criminal law, intrastate matters such as subject matter jurisdiction and venue, and conflicts in time, such as the applicability of prior or subsequent law within …

The Law And Economics Of Organ Procurement, Keith N. Hylton Jul 1990

The Law And Economics Of Organ Procurement, Keith N. Hylton

Faculty Scholarship

This paper presents an economic analysis of the organ procurement system in the U.S. and examines proposals to alleviate the shortage of transplantable organs. The paper's principal conclusions are: (1) Although non-market solutions deserve the highest priority, demand increases fueled by improvements in transplant technology will probably make some market-based solution necessary in the future. (2) Quality deterioration and coercion will not necessarily be worrisome problems under a market-based procurement system.

Toward A Jurisprudence Of Benefits: The Norms Of Copyright And The Problem Of Private Censorship, Wendy J. Gordon Jul 1990

Toward A Jurisprudence Of Benefits: The Norms Of Copyright And The Problem Of Private Censorship, Wendy J. Gordon

Faculty Scholarship

For many years copyright was a backwater of the law. Perceived as an esoteric and narrow field beset by hypertechnical formalities, the discipline and its practitioners were largely isolated from scholarly and case law developments in other areas. There were exceptions, of course. Well before the explosion of intellectual property litigation in the last twenty years, persons such as Zechariah Chafee, Jr. and Judge Learned Hand brought a wealth of learning and broad perspective to copyright. But by and large copyright looked only to itself for guidance.

Foundations Of Rights Jurisprudence In Israel: Chief Justice Agranat's Legacy, Pnina Lahav Apr 1990

Foundations Of Rights Jurisprudence In Israel: Chief Justice Agranat's Legacy, Pnina Lahav

Faculty Scholarship

"Liberty of the individual is a things of the past, or the future, in Palestine", wrote Bernard Joseph, a distinguished member of Israel's "government in the making" in 1948, shortly before Israel was inaugurated as a sovereign state. Joseph's "present" was the dusk of British rule in Palestine. Draconian Defence (Emergency) Regulations suspended conventional liberties ordinary westerners were accustomed to expect and turned Palestine into a police state.

New Fda Drug Approval Policies And Hiv Vaccine Development, Wendy K. Mariner Mar 1990

New Fda Drug Approval Policies And Hiv Vaccine Development, Wendy K. Mariner

Faculty Scholarship

Conducted a study of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) law and policy including interviews with FDA officials in the Center of Biologics Evaluation and Research and the Office of the General Counsel. Suggests that the new FDA drug review policies do not fit vaccines. Instead, the nature of vaccines, and HIV vaccines in particular, argues for adherence to a more rigorous form of review. (JLN)

Nematic Electroclinic Effect, Zili Li, Gregory A. Dilisi, Rolfe G. Petschek, Charles Rosenblatt Feb 1990

Nematic Electroclinic Effect, Zili Li, Gregory A. Dilisi, Rolfe G. Petschek, Charles Rosenblatt

Faculty Scholarship

A tilt of the principal axis of the optical dielectric tensor linear in a transverse electric field was observed for a surface-stabilized nematic liquid crystal. The electroclinic coefficient d/dE was observed to increase rapidly on approaching the nematicsmectic-A phase transition from above. This was not expected, and indicates that the incipient translational order is important to the electroclinic effect. The data are consistent with a critical exponent only over a narrow range of temperature, and in this range the apparent exponent is not that expected from theory. In addition, dielectric data are presented for this transition, and birefringence results are …

Intercollegiate Athletics And The Assignment Of Legal Rights, Alfred Dennis Mathewson Jan 1990

Intercollegiate Athletics And The Assignment Of Legal Rights, Alfred Dennis Mathewson

Faculty Scholarship

This Article arose out of my curiosity about the precise assignment of legal rights6 among colleges and students in the production, sale, and delivery of intercollegiate athletics. What rights might student athletes possess that give rise to legal accountability? Although a system that permits universities, coaches, concessionaires, television networks, and advertisers to reap the wealth sown by student athletes while precluding the latter from contemporaneous enjoyment of pecuniary profit seems patently unfair, my review of the cases uncovered a legal order that does not assign legal rights to student athletes consistent with my view.

Decisional Integrity And The Business Judgment Rule, Alfred Dennis Mathewson Jan 1990

Decisional Integrity And The Business Judgment Rule, Alfred Dennis Mathewson

Faculty Scholarship

Shareholders associate together to own a business enterprise in corporate form. The nature of this association requires that an individual shareholder accept less than exclusive control over the enterprise and live with some form of collective decision making. In fact, corporate law divests shareholders of direct decision-making power and, instead, vests it in a board of directors elected by shareholders. Despite this divestiture, shareholders voluntarily step into these associations in the hope of obtaining a share in the enterprise's profits.
