Two Young Radio Pulsars Coincident With Egret Sources, Nicolò D'Amico, Victoria M. Kaspi, Richard N. Manchester, Fernando Camilo, Fronefield Crawford

Physics Faculty Scholarship

We report the discovery and follow-up timing observations of two young energetic radio pulsars. PSR J1420-6048 has a periodP = 68 ms and period derivative = 83 × 10-15, implying a characteristic age τc = 13 kyr and a surface dipole magnetic field strength B = 2.4 × 1012 G. PSR J1837-0604 has P = 96 ms and = 45 × 10-15, implying τc = 34 kyr and B = 2.1 × 1012 G. The two objects have large spin-down luminosities, and, on the basis of an empirical comparison of their properties with those of other young …

Synthetic Approach To Hexaoxa[6]Peristylanes. A Novel Ddq-Induced Oxidative Rearrangement, Douglas Arthur Otte

Honors Theses

The structural beauty and interesting bonding properties of polycyclic cage compounds have been a source of fascination to many chemists. In this work, progress toward the synthesis of large oxabowl systems, such as hexaoxa[6]peristylane and its derivative dipbenylhexaoxa[6)peristylane, is described. Thus, the adduct obtained from the cycloaddition of maleic anhydride and cyc!ooctatetraene is converted into key dicarbonyl intermediates. Subsequently, the ozonolysis of these intermediates is carried out in order to generate hexaoxa(6)peristylane as well as diphenylhexaoxa[6]peristylane. Molecular modeling studies, performed at the semi-empirical level, are also described.

Fool Us Once Shame On You—Fool Us Twice Shame On Us: What We Can Learn From The Privatizations Of The Internet Backbone Network And The Domain Name System, Jay P. Kesan, Rajiv C. Shah

Washington University Law Review

One goal of this Article is to describe and document the privatization processes for the backbone network and the DNS. We initially assumed the privatization of the Internet consisted of a simple shift from a subsidized network to a competitive market for backbone services. However, we found the privatization process to be quite complex and problematic. Unfortunately, many of these same problems are reoccurring in the current privatization of the DNS. Our study found three categories of problems that occurred during the privatizations of the Internet’s backbone network and the DNS: procedural problems, problems with the management of competition, and …

Gang Aft Agley, Carl E. Schneider

Articles

In my last contribution to this column (HCR, July-August 2000), I argued that the law of bioethics has repeatedly failed to achieve the hopes cherished for it. I presented evidence, for example, that most doctors breach the duty of informed consent, that advance directives do not direct patients' care, and that repeated legal attempts to increase organ donation have failed to find the success predicted for them. I closed that column by promising to try to explain this chastening experience. It would, of course, take a lifetime of columns to capture all the reasons the law of bioethics …

The U.S. Treasury's Subpart F Report: Plus Ça Change, Plus C'Est La Même Chose?, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah

Articles

On 29 December 2000, the U.S. Treasury Department released its long-awaited study of Subpart F, entitled “The Deferral of Income Earned through U.S. Controlled Foreign Corporations." This study was commenced in the aftermath of the controversy that ensued from the issuance and subsequent withdrawal of Notice 98-11. The study was originally expected to be issued in 1999 in response to the report published that year by the National Foreign Trade Council, which advocated significant changes in Subpart F. The Treasury Study’s delayed issuance at the end of the Clinton Administration means that it only has (at best) persuasive force for …

Gender Matters: Teaching A Reasonable Woman Standard In Personal Injury Law, Margo Schlanger

Articles

Reasonable care is, of course, a concept central to any torts class. But what is it? One very standard doctrinal move is to conceptualize reasonable care as that care shown by a "reasonable person" under like circumstances. The next step, logically, is to visualize this reasonable person. Visualization requires some important choices. For example, is the reasonable person old or young? Disabled or not? These are two questions that all the casebooks I have consulted discuss. But, oddly, no casebook of which I am aware deals with the trait that nearly invariably figures in our description of people: sex. If …

Synthesis And Characterization Of Copper(Ii), Nickel(Ii), Cadmium(Ii), Cobalt(Ii) And Zinc(Ii) Complexes With 2-Benzoyl-3-Hydroxy-1-Naphthylamino-3-Phenyl-2-Propen-1-On, Mehmet Sönmez

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) complexes of 2-Benzoyl-3-hydroxy-1-naphthylamino-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-on, which is a derivative of carboxamide, were prepared and characterized by elemental, spectral and magnetic methods. Based on the analytical results, electronic and infrared spectral data and magnetic susceptibility measurements, suitable structures have been proposed. The formation of the complexes in solution was investigated conductometrically. 2-Benzoyl-3-hydroxy-1-naphthylamino-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-on was found to be a bidentate ligand coordinating through enolic oxygen and amide nitrogen. The complexes of Co(II) and Ni(II) are proposed to have an octahedral structure, while Cd(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) are suggested to possess a square-planar environment in the complexes.

The Consequences Of School Desegregation: The Mismatch Between The Research And The Rationale, Amy Stuart Wells

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

This article challenges the narrow way in which the "consequences" of school desegregation have been defined - namely as measured by standardized test scores alone. This article serves as a reminder that in the early, pre-Brown cases, the Supreme Court argued that the purpose of school desegregation was to assure "wider association" for African American students who had been cut off from high-status educational institutions and the honor and social networks they confer. The bulk of social science research on school desegregation has ignored this rationale as researchers mostly examined students' test scores after only one or two years of …

Electronic Resources: A Wolf In Sheep’S Clothing?, Bradley L. Schaffner

Staff and Faculty Work

This article examines the impact of electronic technology on libraries and scholarship. It focuses on some of the challenges of using electronic resources in research libraries, which include the cost of acquiring electronic formats and the effect that such expenditures have on other library services and collection development practices. The article also explores how electronic resources have changed the way students and scholars conduct research. The goal of this essay is not to criticize or condemn electronic formats but, rather, to illustrate that electronic technology is simply one tool, among others, for the dissemination of information. As such, electronic resources …

Florida Commission On Mental Health & Substance Abuse Final Report, Florida Commission On Mental Health & Substance Abuse

FMHI Publications

The Florida Commission on Mental Health and Substance Abuse was created in 1999 to conduct a systematic review of the state’s mental health and substance abuse system. The Commission was asked to make recommendations in areas including planning, service strategies, funding, accountability, emergency behavioral health services, and the unique needs of older persons.

Twenty-three Commissioners from throughout Florida were appointed by the governor and the legislature to broadly represent the key constituencies in mental health and substance abuse. Four workgroups were formed to examine and report on special issues including: 1) information needs and technology; 2) children’s; 3) adults’; and …
