Properties Of Dust Grains In Planetary Nebulae. I. The Ionized Region Of Ngc 6445, Peter A. M. Van Hoof, Griet C. Van De Steene, Douwe A. Beintema, P. G. Martin, Stuart R. Pottasch, Gary J. Ferland Mar 2000

Properties Of Dust Grains In Planetary Nebulae. I. The Ionized Region Of Ngc 6445, Peter A. M. Van Hoof, Griet C. Van De Steene, Douwe A. Beintema, P. G. Martin, Stuart R. Pottasch, Gary J. Ferland

Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications

One of the factors influencing the spectral evolution of a planetary nebula is the fate of the dust grains that are emitting the infrared continuum. Several processes have been proposed that either destroy the grains or remove them from the ionized region. To test whether these processes are effective, we study new infrared spectra of the evolved nebula NGC 6445. These data show that the thermal emission from the grains is very cool and has a low flux compared to Hβ. A model of the ionized region is constructed, using the photoionization code CLOUDY 90.05. Based on this model, we …

Predictable Changes In Yields And Forward Rates, David Backus, Silverio Foresi, Abon Mozumdar, Liuren Wu Mar 2000

Predictable Changes In Yields And Forward Rates, David Backus, Silverio Foresi, Abon Mozumdar, Liuren Wu

CRIF Working Paper series

We make two contributions to the study of interest rates. The first is to characterize their dynamics in a new way. We estimate forecasting relations based on one-period changes in forward rates, which are more easily compared than earlier work on yields to the stationary theory of bond pricing. The second is to approximate these dynamics and other salient features of interest rates with an affine model. We show that models with "negative" factors come closer to accounting for the properties of interest rates, including their dynamics, than multifactor Cox-Ingersoll-Ross models.

Tropospheric Reactive Odd Nitrogen Over The South Pacific In Austral Springtime, Jack E. Dibb, R. Talbot, Eric Scheuer, J D. Bradshaw, S T. Sandholm, D R. Blake, N J. Blake, Elliot Atlas, F Flocke Mar 2000

Tropospheric Reactive Odd Nitrogen Over The South Pacific In Austral Springtime, Jack E. Dibb, R. Talbot, Eric Scheuer, J D. Bradshaw, S T. Sandholm, D R. Blake, N J. Blake, Elliot Atlas, F Flocke

Earth Sciences

The distribution of reactive nitrogen species over the South Pacific during austral springtime appears to be dominated by biomass burning emissions and possibly lightning and stratospheric inputs. The absence of robust correlations of reactive nitrogen species with source-specific tracers (e.g., C2H2 [combustion], CH3Cl [biomass burning], C2Cl4 [industrial],210Pb [continental], and 7Be [stratospheric]) suggests significant aging and processing of the sampled air parcels due to losses by surface deposition, OH attack, and dilution processes. Classification of the air parcels based on CO enhancements indicates that the greatest influence was found in …

de Haas-van Alphen measurements made on the organic metal β″-(ET)₂SF₅CH₂CF₂SO₃ reveal the existence of an ideal two-dimensional (2D) Fermi surface, but rather than having the conventional sawtooth wave form that is normally observed in all other 2D electron gases, instead, an ‘‘inverse sawtooth’’ wave form is observed, which is to be expected when the chemical potential is pinned at a constant value. While this proves the existence of the theoretically predicted quasi-one-dimensional band, it further implies that this band has an exceptionally large density of states.

A Formal Semantics For Spki, Jon Howell, David Kotz Mar 2000

A Formal Semantics For Spki, Jon Howell, David Kotz

Computer Science Technical Reports

We extend the logic and semantics of authorization due to Abadi, Lampson, et al. to support restricted delegation. Our formal model provides a simple interpretation for the variety of constructs in the Simple Public Key Infrastructure (SPKI), and lends intuition about possible extensions. We discuss both extensions that our semantics supports and extensions that it cautions against.

Gravitational Particle Production And The Moduli Problem, Gary Felder, Lev Kofman, Andrei Linde Mar 2000

Gravitational Particle Production And The Moduli Problem, Gary Felder, Lev Kofman, Andrei Linde

Physics: Faculty Publications

A theory of gravitational production of light scalar particles during and after inflation is investigated. We show that in the most interesting cases where long-wavelength fluctuations of light scalar fields can be generated during inflation, these fluctuations rather than quantum fluctuations produced after inflation give the dominant contribution to particle production. In such cases a simple analytical theory of particle production can be developed. Application of our results to the theory of quantum creation of moduli fields demonstrates that if the moduli mass is smaller than the Hubble constant then these fields are copiously produced during inflation. This gives rise …


Average Energy Flow Of Optical Pulses In Dispersive Media, Scott Glasgow, Michael Ware, Justin Peatross Mar 2000

Average Energy Flow Of Optical Pulses In Dispersive Media, Scott Glasgow, Michael Ware, Justin Peatross

Faculty Publications

The arrival time of a light pulse at a point in space is defined using a time expectation integral over the Poynting vector. The delay between pulse arrival times at two distinct points is shown to consist of two parts: a spectral superposition of group delays (inverse of group velocity) and a delay due to spectral reshaping via absorption or amplification. The result provides a context wherein group velocity is always meaningful even for broad band pulses and when the group velocity is superluminal or negative. The result imposes luminality on sharply defined pulses.

How Do We Know There Is A Population-Environment Problem?, Peter J. Taylor Mar 2000

How Do We Know There Is A Population-Environment Problem?, Peter J. Taylor

Working Papers on Science in a Changing World

Five fictional friends of the author have agreed to meet and talk, hoping that he was right when he claimed that discussion crossing the usual boundaries of their fields would enrich their different inquiries and concerns. Ecolo, a natural and human ecologist, breaks the ice. He wants to marshall scientific knowledge to persuade others of the seriousness of the population problem. He is questioned by Philoso, whose philosophical bent leads her to observe the models that people use and to ask how they support the claims they make. In turn, the other three join in: Activo, an activist who is …
