Are There Nothing But Texts In This Class? Interpreting The Interpretive Turns In Legal Thought, Robin West Jan 2000

Are There Nothing But Texts In This Class? Interpreting The Interpretive Turns In Legal Thought, Robin West

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Allan Hutchinson remarks at the beginning of his interesting article that Gadamer's writings have had only a peripheral influence on legal scholarship -- only occasionally cited, and then begrudgingly so, and never given the serious attention they deserve or require. Nevertheless, Hutchinson acknowledges, Gadamerian influences can be noted -- particularly in the now widely shared understanding that adjudication is, fundamentally, an interpretive exercise. Even with this qualification, though, I think Hutchinson understates Gadamer's impact. Whatever may be true of Gadamer's influence in other disciplines, his influence in law has been unambiguously both broad and deep -- although it has come …


The Difference In Women’S Hedonic Lives: A Phenomenological Critique Of Feminist Legal Theory, Robin West Jan 2000

The Difference In Women’S Hedonic Lives: A Phenomenological Critique Of Feminist Legal Theory, Robin West

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Part One of this article provides a phenomenological and hedonic critique of the conception of the human - and thus the female - that underlies liberal legal feminism. Part Two presents a phenomenological critique of the conception of the human - and thus the female - which underlies radical feminist legal criticism. Again, I will argue that in both cases the theory does not pay enough attention to feminism: liberal feminist legal theory owes more to liberalism than to feminism and radical feminist legal theory owes more to radicalism than it does to feminism. Both models accept a depiction of …


Dc Consortium Of Legal Service Providers: Legal Services 2000 Symposium, Peter B. Edelman Jan 2000

Dc Consortium Of Legal Service Providers: Legal Services 2000 Symposium, Peter B. Edelman

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

My main point is to urge you to the see what is possible in the way of what I might call a public health approach to lawyering for the poor. In a public health approach you find something that has polluted the river and you clean it up at its source instead of just treating its victims one by one. In legal and societal terms, when we are discussing why so many children are growing up poor and dying a slow death of disappointment, the challenge is to think about it in a public health way. Of course we cannot …


Properties Of Ag-Doped Bi_{(1.6)}Pb_{(0.4)}Sr_2ca_3cu_{(4-X)}Ag_Xo_Y (2234) Oxides Prepared By S.S.R. Method, Süleyman Bolat, E. Yanmaz, H. Cömert Jan 2000

Properties Of Ag-Doped Bi_{(1.6)}Pb_{(0.4)}Sr_2ca_3cu_{(4-X)}Ag_Xo_Y (2234) Oxides Prepared By S.S.R. Method, Süleyman Bolat, E. Yanmaz, H. Cömert

Turkish Journal of Physics

The effect of Ag-doping Bi$_{1.6}$Pb$_{0.4}$Sr$_{2}$Ca$_{3}$Cu$_{4-x}$Ag$_{x}$O$_{y}$ compounds (x=0.0-1.0), prepared by conventional Solid-State-Reaction (SSR) technique, was studied using x-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrical resistivity. The high-T$_{c}$ fraction of the 2223 phase, formed from the nominal composition of 2234, decreases with increasing Ag content. From lattice parameter calculations it follows that Ag-doping the unit cell phase of (Bi,Pb)$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$Ca$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{y}$ is limited to the value of x$\leq$0.1. The zero resistance critical temperature (T$_{c,zero}$) was determined from the resistivity curves for all samples. The value of T$_{c,zero}$ decreases slightly to 106 K for x$\leq$0.4 and when the nominal silver content increases up to x=0.7 or more …


Switching Process In A Surface-Stabilized Ferroelectric Liquid Crystal Film, Ridvan Karapinar Jan 2000

Switching Process In A Surface-Stabilized Ferroelectric Liquid Crystal Film, Ridvan Karapinar

In this paper we first discuss the operating principle of a ferroelectric liquid crystal film in the surface stabilized configuration, and then examine the switching characteristics using optical measurements performed with a polarizing microscope.


The Interaction Of The Dipole Moment Of The Water Molecule With The Interface States Of The Cuprous Oxide/Cupric Oxide Junction, Necmi̇ Seri̇n, Tülay Seri̇n, Basri̇ Ünal Jan 2000

The Interaction Of The Dipole Moment Of The Water Molecule With The Interface States Of The Cuprous Oxide/Cupric Oxide Junction, Necmi̇ Seri̇n, Tülay Seri̇n, Basri̇ Ünal

Turkish Journal of Physics

An Au/CuO/Cu$_{2}$O/Cu sandwich structure has been obtained by growing successive Cu$_{2}$O and CuO layers on a Cu sheet. A gold metal contact was formed CuO side at pressure of $1\times10^{-6}$ Torr. Current-voltage characteristics and capacitance of the system were seen to change over a great extent due to the presence of humidity. The effect of the humidity on Au/CuO/Cu$_{2}$O/Cu is explored through the effect of water's dipole moment.


Effects Of Disorder On The Drag Rate In Double Quantum-Wire Systems, B. Tanatar Jan 2000

Effects Of Disorder On The Drag Rate In Double Quantum-Wire Systems, B. Tanatar

Turkish Journal of Physics

We study the Coulomb drag rate for electrons in a double quantum-wire structure in the presence of disorder. We use the particle number-conserving relaxation-time approximation to phenomenologically broaden the response functions entering the drag rate expression to account for the disorder effects. In contrast to the usual low-temperature regime investigated by various researchers, we focus our attention on the high-temperature drag rate to which plasmon modes are known to make substantial contribution. The full wave vector and frequency dependent random-phase approximation (RPA) at finite temperature and disorder strength is employed to describe the effective interlayer Coulomb interaction. The interplay between …


Two-Photon Absorption In Size-Quantized Semiconductors With Degenerated Valence Band, T. G. Ismailov, M. A. Bagirov, B. Ünal Jan 2000

Two-Photon Absorption In Size-Quantized Semiconductors With Degenerated Valence Band, T. G. Ismailov, M. A. Bagirov, B. Ünal

Turkish Journal of Physics

Two photon absorption in size-quantized films of semiconductors with degenerated band structures are investigated. The carrier energy spectrum and wavefunctions in the bands are calculated using two-band Kane model with spin taken into accont. Two-photon absorption coefficients for different polarizations of incident radiations are calculated. The strong dependence of two-photon absorption on polarizations are stated.


Generalized 2d Yang-Mills Theories: Large-N Limit And Phase Structure, Masoud Alimohammadi Jan 2000

Generalized 2d Yang-Mills Theories: Large-N Limit And Phase Structure, Masoud Alimohammadi

Turkish Journal of Physics

After review the 2D Yang--Mills theories (YM$_2$) and its large--$N$ behaviour, the Generalized 2D Yang--Mills theories (gYM$_2$) and their partition functions on a general two--dimensional Riemann surface are discussed.The large--$N$ behaviour of these models is studied in weak regime, and in strong regime, we restrict ourselves to $\phi^4$ gYM$_2$. We show that this model has a third order phase transition, similar to ordinary YM$_2$ theory.

Analysis On The 2-Dim Quantum Poincare Group At Roots Of Unity, Haji Ahmedov Jan 2000

Analysis On The 2-Dim Quantum Poincare Group At Roots Of Unity, Haji Ahmedov

Turkish Journal of Physics

2--Dim quantum Poincar\'e Group $E_q(1,1)$ at roots of unity, its dual $U_q(e(1,1))$ and some of its homogeneous spaces are introduced. Invariant integrals on $E_q(1,1)$ and its invariant discrete subgroup $E(1,1\mid p)$ are constructed. $*$--Representations of the quantum algebra $U_q(e(1,1))$ constructed in the homogeneous space $SO(1,1\mid p)$ are integrated to the pseudo--unitary representations of $E_q(1,1)$ by means of the universal $T$--matrix. $U_q(e(1,1))$ is realized on the quantum plane $E_q^{(1,1)}$ and the eigenfunctions of the complete set of observables are obtained in the angular momentum and momentum basis. The matrix elements of the pseudo--unitary irreducible representations are given in terms of the …

Quark And Lepton Masses From Fundamental Algebra With Exact Color Symmetry, Engi̇n Arik, Meti̇n Arik, Ufuk Kayserilioglu, M. Burcin Unlu

Turkish Journal of Physics

We propose a deformed algebra of creation and annihilation operators relating quark-lepton states. A diagonal mass operator with three parameters together with the three deformation parameters of the algebra gives a reasonable fit to observed quark-lepton masses.

Canonical Quantisation Of The Sl(2,R)/ U(1) Gauged Wznw Black Hole Model, Christopher Ford, George Jorjadze, Gerhard Weigt

Turkish Journal of Physics

Gauged WZNW models are integrable conformal field theories with non-local canonical free-field transformations. Canonical quantisation requires quantum deformations.


On Fermi - Bose Symmetry In Conformal Field Theory, A. Belavin Jan 2000

On Fermi - Bose Symmetry In Conformal Field Theory, A. Belavin

Turkish Journal of Physics

The minimal models of CFT possess a few algebraic structures. Besides the Virasoro Algebra which is an explicit symmetry of these models they have also Quantum Group structure and Fermi-Bose duality. We discuss the relationship between these things.


The Statistics Of Energy States Of A Hookean Model For Proteins, Ayşe Erzan, Erkan Tüzel Jan 2000

The Statistics Of Energy States Of A Hookean Model For Proteins, Ayşe Erzan, Erkan Tüzel

Turkish Journal of Physics

A generic model of a random polypeptide chain, with discrete torsional degrees of freedom and Hookean springs connecting pairs of hydrophobic residues, reproduces the energy probability distribution of real proteins over a very large range of energies. We show that this system with harmonic interactions, under dissipative dynamics driven by random noise, leads to a distribution of energy states obeying a modified one-dimensional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with reflecting boundary conditions, and giving rise to distributions of the Wigner or inverse Gaussian form. A continuum approximation leads to a path integral formulation of the problem. PACS 5.65+b,5.70Ln,87.17.Aa


Multi-Species Asymmetric Exclusion Process In Ordered Sequential Update, M. Ebrahi̇m Fouladvand, Farhad Jafarpour Jan 2000

Multi-Species Asymmetric Exclusion Process In Ordered Sequential Update, M. Ebrahi̇m Fouladvand, Farhad Jafarpour

Turkish Journal of Physics

A multi-species generalization of the asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) is studied in ordered sequential and sub-lattice parallel updating schemes. In this model, particles hop with their own specific probabilities to their rightmost empty site and fast particles overtake slow ones with a definite probability. Using Matrix Product Ansatz (MPA), we obtain the relevant algebra, and study the uncorrelated stationary state of the model both for an open system and on a ring. A complete comparison between the physical results in these updates and those of random sequential introduced in [20,21] is made.


Kerr Spinning Particle, A. Burinskii Jan 2000

Kerr Spinning Particle, A. Burinskii

Turkish Journal of Physics

We give a brief review of the problems connected with the model of spinning particle based on the Kerr geometry. We consider peculiarities of the Kerr rotating black hole solution in gravity, supergravity and low energy string theory. A non-trivial supergeneralization of the Kerr-Newman solution to broken N=2 supergravity is considered. \par The problem of source of the Kerr geometry is discussed, and we consider some arguments in favor of the supersymmetric Fermi-ball model for the Kerr source based on the Witten $U(1)\times U(\tilde 1)$ field model for superconducting strings.


Product Integral Representations Of Wilson Lines And Wilson Loops And Non-Abelian Stokes Theorem, Robert L. Karp, Freydoon Mansouri, Jung S. Rno Jan 2000

Product Integral Representations Of Wilson Lines And Wilson Loops And Non-Abelian Stokes Theorem, Robert L. Karp, Freydoon Mansouri, Jung S. Rno

Turkish Journal of Physics

We make use of product integrals to provide an unambiguous mathematical representation of Wilson line and Wilson loop operators. Then, drawing upon various properties of product integrals, we discuss such properties of Wilson lines and Wilson loops as approximating them with partial sums, their convergence, and their behavior under gauge transformations. We also obtain a surface product integral representation for the Wilson loop operator. The result can be interpreted as the non-abelian version of Stokes theorem.
