Managing Sprawl In The Land Of Unintended Consequences, Robert S. Bucci Sep 2000

Managing Sprawl In The Land Of Unintended Consequences, Robert S. Bucci

New England Journal of Public Policy

Americans witnessing the bulldozing of their country’s pastures, farmlands, and sensitive habitats to erect suburban housing tracts and commercial centers have come to realize that the remaining open land may be too precious to waste. Residential and commercial development is no longer quickly embraced to stimulate economic progress and prosperity. Municipalities are learning that development often extracts a price — sometimes the loss of community character and local charm, sometimes tax revenues that fall short of increased expenditures, and sometimes just plain ugliness. Responding to the new reality, many community officials have initiated unilateral ordinances regulating the development of open …

The Harringtons Of Salem: A Study Of Massachusetts Politics, Richard A. Hogarty Sep 2000

The Harringtons Of Salem: A Study Of Massachusetts Politics, Richard A. Hogarty

New England Journal of Public Policy

Politics inevitably runs in families. Notable among those who have shaped the political landscape of Massachusetts are the Harringtons of the city of Salem.Over the course of five generations, they produced several talented Irish-American politicians who played a major role in state politics and rose to prominent positions of power in the Democratic party. This article centers on the lives and careers of Joseph Harrington and his son Michael, both of whom ran for Congress some twenty-eight years apart. Its treatment of these two congressional races is detailed and insightful. Attention is also directed to the careers of Kevin Harrington …

Supernumerary Spacing Of Rainbows Produced By An Elliptical-Cross-Section Cylinder. I. Theory, James A. Lock Sep 2000

Supernumerary Spacing Of Rainbows Produced By An Elliptical-Cross-Section Cylinder. I. Theory, James A. Lock

Physics Faculty Publications

A sequence of rainbows is produced in light scattering by a particle of high symmetry in the short-wavelength Limit, and a supernumerary interference pattern occurs to one side of each rainbow. Using both a ray-tracing procedure and the Debye-series decomposition of first-order perturbation wave theory, I examine the spacing of the supernumerary maxima and minima as a function of the cylinder rotation angle when an elliptical-cross-section cylinder is normally illuminated by a plane wave. I find that the supernumerary spacing depends sensitively on the cylinder-cross-section shape, and the spacing varies sinusoidally as a function of the cylinder rotation angle for …

Stochastic Dynamics Of Infinite-Dimensional Systems (Stochastic And Non-Linear Analysis Seminar, University Of Illinois), Salah-Eldin A. Mohammed Sep 2000

Stochastic Dynamics Of Infinite-Dimensional Systems (Stochastic And Non-Linear Analysis Seminar, University Of Illinois), Salah-Eldin A. Mohammed

Miscellaneous (presentations, translations, interviews, etc)

We describe an approach to the dynamics of non-linear stochastic differential systems with finite memory using multiplicative cocycles in Hilbert space. We introduce the notion of hyperbolicity for stationary solutions of stochastic systems with memory. We then establish the existence of smooth stable and unstable manifolds in a neighborhood of a hyperbolic stationary solution. The stable and unstable manifolds are stationary and asymptotically invariant under the stochastic semiflow. The proof uses ideas from infinite-dimensional multiplicative ergodic theory and interpolation arguments.

Should Achievement Tests Be Used To Judge School Quality?, Scott C. Bauer Sep 2000

Should Achievement Tests Be Used To Judge School Quality?, Scott C. Bauer

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

This study provides empirical evidence to answer the question whether student scores on standardized achievement tests represent reasonable measures of instructional quality. Using a research protocol designed by Popham and the local study directors, individual test items from a nationally-marketed standardized achievement test were rated by educators and parents to determine the degree to which raters felt that the items reflect important content that is actually taught in schools, and the degree to which raters felt that students' answers to the questions would be likely to be unduly influenced by confounded causality....

Chemistry and Biochemistry Faculty Publications

We used an airborne Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (AFTIR), coupled to a flow-through, air-sampling cell, on a King Air B-90 to make in situ trace gas measurements in isolated smoke plumes from four, large, boreal zone wildfires in interior Alaska during June 1997. AFTIR spectra acquired near the source of the smoke plumes yielded excess mixing ratios for 13 of the most common trace gases: water, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, methane, nitric oxide, formaldehyde, acetic acid, formic acid, methanol, ethylene, acetylene, ammonia and hydrogen cyanide. Emission ratios to carbon monoxide for formaldehyde, acetic acid, and methanol were 2.2±0.4%, 1.3±0.4%, and …

Analysis Of The Nico2O4 Spinel Surface With Auger And X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, J.-G. Kim, D. L. Pugmire, D. Battaglia, Marjorie Langell Sep 2000

Analysis Of The Nico2O4 Spinel Surface With Auger And X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, J.-G. Kim, D. L. Pugmire, D. Battaglia, Marjorie Langell

Marjorie A. Langell Publications

Nickel cobaltite, NiCo2O4, has been synthesized by sol–gel and thermal decomposition techniques and the surface composition studied with Auger (AES) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies (XPS). The asintroduced samples are near-stoichiometric, although samples fabricated by thermal decomposition tend to be oxygen-defi cient by approximately 25% of the predicted spinel concentration. Nickel 2p XPS indicates the predominant form of the metal to be Ni2+, with the cations located in octahedral sites. The cobalt cations are equally divided between tetrahedral and octahedral sites as Co3+. The oxygen XP 1s spectrum is composed of two peaks, …

Resolving Ambiguities In Gravity Wave Propagation Directions Inherent In Satellite Observations: A Simulation Study, Michael P. Hickey Ph.D., Jason S. Brown Sep 2000

Resolving Ambiguities In Gravity Wave Propagation Directions Inherent In Satellite Observations: A Simulation Study, Michael P. Hickey Ph.D., Jason S. Brown

Publications

We simulate space-based, sub-limb viewing observations of airglow brightness fluctuations caused by atmospheric gravity wave interactions with the O2 atmospheric airglow, and we demonstrate that, due to the geometry associated with such observations, the brightness fluctuations observed for the optically thick 0–0 band emission will always appear stronger for waves traveling towards the observer (satellite). The effect should be most noticeable for waves having relatively small vertical wavelengths (∼10 km) and horizontal wavelengths of 50 km or greater. For waves of short (∼100 km) horizontal wavelength, the brightness fluctuation anisotropy with respect to viewing direction may also be evident in …

Evaluation Of A Vancomycin Chiral Stationary Phase In Capillary Electrochromatography Using Polar Organic And Reversed-Phase Modes, Charlotte Karlsson, Lars Karlsson, Daniel W. Armstrong, Paul K. Owens

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

A vancomycin chiral stationary phase (CSP) was fully evaluated in capillary electrochromatography (CEC) in reversed phase and polar organic modes for a number of racemic pharmaceutical compounds. High efficiency and resolution values were obtained for a number of compound classes including thalidomide in both the polar organic mode (190 000 plates meter-1 and Rs = 13.8) and reversed-phase mode (125 000 plates meter-1 and Rs = 13.0). Experimental parameters, including organic modifier, organic solvent ratio, ionic strength, pH, temperature, and voltage, were examined in both the aqueous and nonaqueous modes to deduce their effect on the resultant EOF, retention times, …
