Fundamental Aspect And Behavior Of Saturated Fluorocarbons In Glow Discharge In Absence Of Potential Source Of Hydrogen, Yu Iriyama, H. Yasuda Jan 1992

Fundamental Aspect And Behavior Of Saturated Fluorocarbons In Glow Discharge In Absence Of Potential Source Of Hydrogen, Yu Iriyama, H. Yasuda

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

The glow discharge of a series of saturated fluorocarbons, CnF2n+2 (n = 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8), was studied with glass substrates which do not contain any hydrogen. It was found that the deposition rate was a function of the F/C ratio of the starting fluorocarbons. That is, fluorocarbons with higher F/C ratio, such as CF4 and C2F6, hardly polymerized, while fluorocarbons with lower F/C ratio, such as C8F18, polymerized as well as C2F4. After plasma exposure, the surface of glass substrate was …


Electronic Branching Ratio Of The Lepton, R. Ammar, Manoj Thulasidas Jan 1992

Electronic Branching Ratio Of The Lepton, R. Ammar, Manoj Thulasidas

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Using data accumulated by the CLEO I detector operating at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have measured the ratio R=Γ(τ→eν¯eντ)Γ1 where Γ1 is the τ decay rate to final states with one charged particle. We find R=0.2231±0.0044±0.0073 where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. Together with the measured topological one-charged-particle branching fraction, this yields the branching fraction of the τ lepton to electrons, Be=0.192±0.004±0.006.

The Supreme Court's First One Hundred Charter Of Rights Decisions: A Statistical Analysis, F. L. Morton, Peter H. Russell, Michael J. Withey Jan 1992

The Supreme Court's First One Hundred Charter Of Rights Decisions: A Statistical Analysis, F. L. Morton, Peter H. Russell, Michael J. Withey

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

This study presents a descriptive statistical analysis of the Supreme Court of Canada's first one hundred Charter of Rights decisions (1982-1989). Charter appeals now constitute one-quarter of the Court's annual caseload. The Court has abandoned the judicial self-restraint that shaped its pre-Charter civil liberties jurisprudence. It has upheld rights claimants in 35 percent of its decisions and declared nineteen statutes void. Seventy-five percent of the Court's Charter work dealt with legal rights and criminal justice, but more provincial statutes were declared invalid than federal. After an initial period of consensus, the Court divided into identifiable voting blocs, with wide discrepancies …


A Black (And Rising?) Tide: Controlling Maritime Oil Pollution In Canada, Suzanne Hawkes, Michael M'Gonigle Jan 1992

A Black (And Rising?) Tide: Controlling Maritime Oil Pollution In Canada, Suzanne Hawkes, Michael M'Gonigle

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

A series of dramatic oil spills in recent years has once again drawn critical attention to the nature and adequacy of existing domestic and international legislation regarding ship source oil pollution. Predictably, legislators and policy makers have responded with a plethora of studies, reviews, and consultations. However, past improvements to the domestic and international regimes have traditionally been slow and incremental, at best. In Canada, approximately three years have passed since the Nestucca spill took place off the B.C. coast. Yet, while there has been much discussion, domestic legislation remains virtually unaltered at the present time. The authors find that …


Reconstructing Liberty, Robin West Jan 1992

Reconstructing Liberty, Robin West

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

It is commonly and rightly understood in this country that our constitutional system ensures, or seeks to ensure, that individuals are accorded the greatest degree of personal, political, social, and economic liberty possible, consistent with a like amount of liberty given to others, the duty and right of the community to establish the conditions for a moral and secure collective life, and the responsibility of the state to provide for the common defense of the community against outside aggression. Our distinctive cultural and constitutional commitment to individual liberty places very real restraints on what our elected representatives can do, even …


Murdering The Spirit: Racism, Rights, And Commerce, Robin West Jan 1992

Murdering The Spirit: Racism, Rights, And Commerce, Robin West

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Patricia Williams' The Alchemy of Race and Rights: The Diary of a Law Professor, is an eloquent, profoundly original, and often brilliant collection of interdisciplinary essays and stories concerning the impact of racism and poverty on the human spirit; the historic and continuing role of law and legal institutions in defining, facilitating, and perpetuating those harms; and the possibilities and dangers imminent in the attempt to use law to effect a remedy for them. This is a book that we should celebrate: it reminds us that books are occasionally very, very important, that reading can be transformative, and that writing …


The Paradox Of United State Democracy, C. A. Gearty Jan 1992

The Paradox Of United State Democracy, C. A. Gearty

University of Richmond Law Review

This program is about a paradox at the heart of American democracy. We take it for granted that elected officials, like President Bush and members of Congress, run America. In fact, many of the country's most important decisions are taken by nine unelected lawyers accountable to no one. It is a paradox which is increasingly under scrutiny as more and more Americans are coming to question the power of their Supreme Court.


It's Not Love, But It's Not Bad: A Response To Critics Of Prepaid College Tuition Plans, J. Timothy Philipps, Ed R. Haden Jan 1992

It's Not Love, But It's Not Bad: A Response To Critics Of Prepaid College Tuition Plans, J. Timothy Philipps, Ed R. Haden

University of Richmond Law Review

Two years ago one of the authors published an article surveying the tax ramifications of prepaid college tuition plans, with a focus on the Michigan plan - the Michigan Education Trust ("MET"). That article took a generally positive view of such plans in general and of MET in particular. It discussed three basic themes: 1) the uncertainty of existing tax law with respect to prepaid tuition plans requires clarifying congressional legislation; 2) the position of the Internal Revenue Service ("Service") with respect to prepaid tuition plans, as enunciated in a private letter ruling addressed to MET, is flawed; and 3) …


Unlocking The Chamber Doors: Limiting Confidentiality In Proceedings Before The Virginia Judicial Inquiry And Review Commission, Brian R. Pitney Jan 1992

Unlocking The Chamber Doors: Limiting Confidentiality In Proceedings Before The Virginia Judicial Inquiry And Review Commission, Brian R. Pitney

University of Richmond Law Review

In a Mississippi case, a judge imposed and collected criminal fines, then willfully and fraudulently documented the case as dismissed, keeping the money for himself. In California, the Commission of Judicial Qualifications removed a judge for prodding an attorney with a "dildo," grabbing a court commissioner by his testicles in a public hallway, and habitually making offensive sexual remarks at his office. A Massachusetts judge received public censure for making derogatory and obscene references to members of the bench and bar, becoming intoxicated and urinating in public, and setting unusually high bail for African-American defendants. After a Federal Bureau of …

Putting The Teeth Back Into The Bfoq Requirement Of Title Vii And The Pregnancy Discrimination Act: International Union V. Johnson Controls, Inc., M. Chris Floyd

University of Richmond Law Review

In a resounding victory for women's and workers' rights, the U.S. Supreme Court has found that a Wisconsin battery manufacturer, in barring women without proof of infertility from jobs involving exposure to lead, violated the Civil Rights Act of 1964.


The Supreme Court As A Political Institution, Benjamin L. Hooks Jan 1992

The Supreme Court As A Political Institution, Benjamin L. Hooks

University of Richmond Law Review

The august Supreme Court of the United States is a political institution and has been virtually from the beginning. That today's Court finds itself at the center of intense ideological and political debate should surprise few serious students of American political and constitutional history.
