Uno Downtown Education Center, Center For Public Affairs Research (Cpar)

Publications

In September of 1971 The Regents' Commission on the Urban University of the 70's Report recommended that:

"... the Commission recommends that UNO bring educational opportunities to the people by further expansion and development of instruction in Program Centers away from the main campus ......... "

Since the receipt of that recommendation the University has established permanent and ad hoc program centers remote from the main campus (i.e., Center for Urban Education, Allwine Farm, sculpture lab and continuing studies in the WOW Building, YWCA, New Federal Building) in addition to continuing a search for a major facility in the "Downtown …

Measuring The Rate Of Nucleosynthesis With A Gamma-Ray Detector, Donald D. Clayton, Joseph Silk

Publications

The gamma-ray lines emitted when 56Ni decays to 56Fe are shown to provide a photon flux which is a significant fraction of the diffuse background near 1 MeV. Successful measurement of the line profties can reveal both the present and past rates of nucleosynthesis in the Universe.

Direct Production Of 56fe In Silicon Quasi-Equilibria And The Problem Of 58ni, Donald D. Clayton, Stanford E. Woosley

Publications

We consider two questions of importance to the science of nucleosynthesis: (1) Can 56Fe, rather than 56Ni, have been synthesized in its observed ratio to 28Si within a silicon-burning quasi-equilibrium? (2) What accounts for the large abundance of 58Ni? The answer to the first question is in the negative, be- cause a large overabundance of other neutron-rich nuclei, especially 54Fe or 52Cr, appears in the quasi- equilibrium distributions which yield the observed abundance ratio for 56Fe/28Si. The large 58Ni abun- dance seems to imply one of the following: (1) the iron peak is synthesized in an e-process dominated by "Ni, …

Gamma-Ray Lines From Young Supernova Remnants, Donald D. Clayton, Stirling A. Colgate, Gerald J. Fishman

Publications

The gamma-ray luminosity of a typical type I supernova remnant has been calculated by assuming that the origin of the optical luminosity is due to the energy of the radioactive decay of Ni56. Tt is ex- pected that Ni56 is the most abundant nucleus resulting from silicon burning in the supernova shock conditions. The requisite mass of Ni56 (0.14 Mo) gives rise to gamma-ray lines with energies near 1 MeV that should be detectable in young supernova remnants at distances up to a few Mpc. Future detectors aboard satellites should be able to detect events at the rate of about …

Teaching Communication Skills In The Context Of The World Of Work: A Pilot Project, Barbara L. Brilhart

Publications

The survey of projects was initiated by Miss Kessler, who located sources pertaining to work-orientation in the junior high school, remedial programs for drop-outs, and programs in which language skills were taught in the context of teaching units and courses in occupations. A form was mailed to various cities to obtain curricula and reports on projects.

During the summer of 1968, the author read 200 articles, curricula and project reports in an effort to gain insights into objectives, activities and evaluations of work-orientation programs. The result of this survey will be reported in three sections: (1) concepts of work-orientation; (2) …

The Manpower And Related Agencies Of Omaha: A Pilot Study Of Their Functions And Interconnections, Barbara L. Brilhart, Judy Kessler

Publications

In the past few years the University of Nebraska at Omaha has become increasingly committed to the study and alleviation of urban problems, Involvement of faculty, administration, and students in the life of the community and the demand for courses in urban affairs have stimulated an awareness of the need for an organized and rapid method of information retrieval in relation to the Omaha metropolitan area,

Neutron Tunneling In 3he(3he,2p)4he, Robert M. May, Donald D. Clayton

Publications

We investigate the possibility that in the astrophysically interesting energy range (i.e., well below the Coulomb barrier), the reaction 3He(3He,2p)4He proceeds predominantly by a neutron tunneling mechanism. Rough calculations of the magnitude and energy dependence of the total cross-section and of the shape of the proton differential cross-section are made on this basis. The results are in moderate agreement with recent experiments, and tend to justify a smooth extrapolation of these laboratory results down to the lower energies of astrophysical significance.

Unemployment In Omaha In Relation To The Armour Closing, Kenneth Root, John P. Zipay

Publications

On September 29, 1967, Armour and. Company announced that effective six months from that date, the Omaha Armour plant would be closed, displacing a labor force of approximately 2, 200 workers. This statement, announcing the closing of the third meatpacking firm in Omaha within the past two years, was startling and indicative of far- reaching consequences for Omaha, its people and economy. Numerous social agencies, along with the Chamber of Commerce and the Nebraska Employment Service, became involved in joining together in a united effort through the development of their own organization-- ACT, the Armour Coordinating Team. ACT is an …

Coulomb De-Excitation Of C12 In A Helium Gas At High Density And Temperature, P B. Shaw, Donald D. Clayton

Publications

The report contains calculations of the extent to which the formation of C12 nuclei is speeded up in a dense hot helium plasma by the Coulomb de-excitation of its transiently formed excited states.

Termination Of The S-Process, Donald D. Clayton, M E. Rassbach

Publications

The nucleosynthesis of heavy stable nuclei by successive captures of neutrons in a weak neutron flux (the s-process) is terminated at large atomic weight by alpha decay to isotopes of lead. We analyze the details of this termination and calculate the abundances of lead and bismuth isotopes synthesized by the exposure of lighter nuclei to neutrons. We demonstrate that the results are nearly insensitive to the poorly known neutron-capture cross-section of Pb368. The continuous distribution of integrated neutron exposures responsible for the observed abundances has an anomalously large high-exposure component. This result suggests that the bulk of the lead has …

Omaha Unemployment Feasibility Study: Final Report, Larry D. Barnett, Kenneth Root, George Helling

Publications

The research reported here was designed to test the feasibility of a practical approach to the reduction of unemployment, particularly among Negroes.

The need for the particular kind of emphasis used in this approach was recently stated by the director of the U.S. Employment Service in pointing out the need to obtain " more understanding of the things that make the community tick, that keep it from solving its problems, and that lead to the discovery of the real barriers to coordination..."

Nucleosynthesis Of Heavy Elements By Neutron Capture, Philip A. Seeger, William A. Fowler, Donald D. Clayton

Publications

Nucleosynthesis of elements heavier than the iron group by neutron capture on both slow and fast time scales is evaluated. The s-process calculations of Clayton, Fowler, Hull, and Zimmerman (1961) have been revised to include more recent experimental results on abundances and neutron capture cross- sections. The solar-system s-process abundances indicate a history of neutron exposure distributions characterized by decreasing probability of high integrated flux; an exponential exposure distribution is extracted. Estimates are made of the s-process contribution to each isotopic abundance; a table gives the amounts of elements produced by each process in the solar-system material. The r-process calculations …

Radioactivity In Supernova Remnants, Donald D. Clayton, W L. Craddock

Publications

We calculate implications of the idea developed by Burbidge et al. that the nearly exponential decrease after the (irst 100 days of the light-curves of Type i supernovae is due to nuclear energy released by the spontaneous fission of Cf354. Uncertainty of the correctness of the Cf-hypothesis qualifies any interpretation of (1) supernovae light-curves, (2) the location and mechanism of heavy-element nucleosynthesis by rapid neutron captures, and (3) the present-day energy balance in supernova remnants We demonstrate that, if the Cf-hypothesis is correct, the Crab Nebula presently has a radioactive energy input of 1 2 X 1030 ergs/sec, of which …
