Search For Scalar Top Quark Production In Pp̅ Collisions At √S = 1.8 Tev, T. Affolder, Kenneth A. Bloom, Collider Detector At Fermilab Collaboration Jun 2000

Search For Scalar Top Quark Production In Pp̅ Collisions At √S = 1.8 Tev, T. Affolder, Kenneth A. Bloom, Collider Detector At Fermilab Collaboration

Kenneth Bloom Publications

We have searched for direct production of scalar top quarks at the Collider Detector at Fermilab in 88 pb-1 of pp collisions at √s =1.8 TeV. We assume the scalar top quark decays into either a bottom quark and a chargino or a bottom quark, a lepton, and a scalar neutrino. The event signature for both decay scenarios is a lepton, missing transverse energy, and at least two b-quark jets. For a chargino mass of 90 GeV/c2 and scalar neutrino masses of at least 40 GeV/c2, we find no evidence for scalar top …

A Cone Of Coherent Light, Shouyuan Chen, Anatoly Maksimchuk, Eric Esarey, Donald P. Umstadter Jun 2000

A Cone Of Coherent Light, Shouyuan Chen, Anatoly Maksimchuk, Eric Esarey, Donald P. Umstadter

Donald Umstadter Publications

Lasers come in infrared and visible varieties, but none yet in the x-ray band. A compact and powerful source of coherent x rays is the dream of many physicists, who see applications such as making atomic scale, three-dimensional movies of a melting crystal or an operating photosynthesis protein. In a step toward that goal, a research team has detected high frequency coherent light generated by a new process. As they report in the 12 June PRL, intense laser pulses can stimulate free electrons in a plasma to emit coherent light at triple the input frequency in a narrowly-directed cone. The …


An Economic Cpu-Time Market For D'Agents, Ezra E.K. Cooper Jun 2000

An Economic Cpu-Time Market For D'Agents, Ezra E.K. Cooper

Dartmouth College Undergraduate Theses

A usable and efficient resource-management system has been created for use with D'Agents. The software dynamically negotiates a price rate for CPU time, using the competitive bids of mobile agents that offer currency in return for fast computation. The system allows mobile agents to plan their expenditures across many hosts while minimizing the time needed for their tasks. The ability to price CPU time opens the door for service owners to be compensated for the computation consumed by agents and provides an incentive for servers to allow anonymous agents. We discuss the theoretical background which makes a CPU market system …


Registration Of Images With Dissimilar Contrast Using A Hybrid Method Employing Correlation And Mutual Information, Karolyn A. Abram Jun 2000

Registration Of Images With Dissimilar Contrast Using A Hybrid Method Employing Correlation And Mutual Information, Karolyn A. Abram

Dartmouth College Undergraduate Theses

The problem of fitting one image into another is commonly called "registration." Finding the best possible translation and rotation necessary to align two images is one approach to solving this problem. Registration is a crucial component of many remote sensing and medical image interpretation applications. Image alignment techniques aid in volumetric estimations of complicated structures and allow radiologists to accurately identify changes between sequential images. Radiologists require image alignment capabilities to correct for patient motion and/or content displacement between images. Numerous image registration techniques exist for correcting the alignment problems mentioned above. Unfortunately, most of these techniques, such as Correlation, …

Qualitative Evaluation Of Data Compression In Real-Time Ultrasound Imaging, Bijoy J. Sundersingh Jun 2000

Qualitative Evaluation Of Data Compression In Real-Time Ultrasound Imaging, Bijoy J. Sundersingh

Theses and Dissertations (ETD)

The purpose of this project was to evaluate qualitatively real-time ultrasound imaging using objective and subjective techniques to determine the minimum bandwidth required for clinical diagnosis of various anatomical and pathological states. In the experimental setup live ultrasound video samples representing the most common clinical examinations were compressed at 128, 256, 384, 768, 1152 and 1536 kbps using a compressor-decompressor (CODEC) adhering to International Telecommunication Union (ITU-T) recommendation H.261. A protocol for qualitative evaluation was developed and subjective and objective testing were performed based on this protocol. Subjective methods comprised of inter-rater reliability tests using kappa statistics and three way …

Pulse And Canola Frost Identification:The Back Pocket Guide, Craig White Jun 2000

Pulse And Canola Frost Identification:The Back Pocket Guide, Craig White

Bulletins 4000 -

This field guide will help you identify the common symptoms of frost damage in pulse and canola crops. It also contains pictures of other plant symptoms often confused with frost damage in these crops.

Frost damage reduces crop yield and grain quality. Early identification of symptoms allows timely crop salvage decisions to be made.

Inspect pulse and canola crops between bud formation and during pod growth if right air temperature (recorded 1.2 m above ground) falls below 2 degrees celsius and there was a frost.

Check low lying, light coloured soil types and known frost prone areas first. Then check …

Long‐Term Vri Photometry Of 89 (V441) Herculis, John R. Percy, Akos G. Bakos, Gregory W. Henry Jun 2000

Long‐Term Vri Photometry Of 89 (V441) Herculis, John R. Percy, Akos G. Bakos, Gregory W. Henry

Information Systems and Engineering Management Research Publications

We report 4500 days of VRI photometry of the peculiar high‐latitude F2 Ibe star 89 (V441) Herculis, from a robotic photometric telescope, and the American Association of Variable Star Observers photoelectric photometry program. We detected the previously known photometric period of 65.2 days and also the 283 day period which was previously observed in radial velocity only and ascribed to binarity. We have determined the relative amplitudes and phases of light, color, and radial velocity for each period. The 65.2 day period appears to be due to pulsation—probably radial. The nature of the 283 day variations is unclear; we discuss …

Synthesis And Characterization Of The Dimethyl-Substituted Bisbenzimidazole Ligand And Its Manganese Complex, Dean Johnston Jun 2000

Synthesis And Characterization Of The Dimethyl-Substituted Bisbenzimidazole Ligand And Its Manganese Complex, Dean Johnston

Chemistry Faculty Scholarship

Macrocycles with unique properties provide new avenues for the design of novel catalysts and materials. Here, we report, for the first time, the synthesis and characterization of the dimethyl-substituted bisbenzimidazole ligand (Me2BBZ) and its manganese complex (Mn-Me2BBZ). The Me2BBZ ligand is similar to porphyrin and phthalocyanine macrocycles in terms of its cavity size and metal-binding mode, but owing to electronic and charge differences, it exhibits properties that make it distinct from its structural counterparts. For instance, the optical spectra of bisbenzimidazoles lack transitions in the 500-900 nm region. Perhaps the most significant feature of the Me2BBZ ligand, however, is its …

Depth From Flash, David B. Martin Jun 2000

Depth From Flash, David B. Martin

Dartmouth College Undergraduate Theses

Digital camera technology has recently seen substantial improvements in image quality while lower prices have made it affordable to the average consumer. Camera manufacturers, however, are not taking full advantage of this new medium for image capture. By filtering the already digitized image produced by these cameras through on-board image processing algorithms we can dramatically increase the power of digital cameras. For example, according to experts in the photographic industry, most people simply take bad pictures. Classic examples of this phenomenon are photographs taken indoors with a point-and-shoot style camera using its built-in flash. The subjects of these photographs often …
