Byzantine Music Intervals: An Experimental Signal Processing Approach, Kyriakos Michael Tsiappoutas

LSU New Orleans Theses and Dissertations

We used a Byzantine Music piece performed by a well recognized chanter in order to derive experimentally the mean frequencies of the first five tones (D – A) of the diatonic scale of Byzantine Music. Then we compared the experimentally derived frequencies with frequencies proposed by two theoretical scales, both representative of traditional Byzantine Music chanting. We found that if a scale is performed by a traditional chanter is very close in frequency to the frequencies proposed theoretically. We then determined an allowed frequency deviation from the mean frequencies for each tone. The concept of allowed deviation is not provided …

Optoelectronic Multifractal Wavelet Analysis For Fast And Accurate Detection Of Rainfall In Weather Radar Images, Radhika Dahale

LSU New Orleans Theses and Dissertations

In this thesis we propose an automated process for the removal of non-precipitation echoes present in weather radar signals and accurate detection of rainfall. The process employs multifractal analysis using directional Gabor wavelets for accurate detection of the rain events. An optoelectronic joint transform correlator is proposed to provide ultra fast processing and wavelet analysis. Computer simulations of the proposed system show that the proposed algorithm is successful in the detecting rainfall accurately in radar images. The accuracy of the algorithms proposed are compared to accurate results that were generated under expert supervision. Results of the proposed system are also …

Informational Externalities Of Going Public Decisions, Carmen Cotei

LSU New Orleans Theses and Dissertations

In this dissertation I examine the informational externalities of going public decisions for industrial and banking sector. The results show that industrial rivals have positive valuation effects only in response to venture backed IPOs and no significant reaction in response to non-venture backed IPOs. I also find evidence that the effect on rival firms is stronger if they operate in low concentrated industries (i.e. high competition) and have low growth opportunities. The relative size of IPO firm seems to play an important role in the direction and magnitude of industry rivals' valuation effects. Negative information revealed in the form of …

Parental Determinants Of Emotion Regulation In A Maltreated Sample, Lara Rachel Robinson,

LSU New Orleans Theses and Dissertations

The current investigation examines the relationship between parenting, emotion regulation, and symptoms of psychopathology in maltreating and non-maltreating parent-child dyads. The participants in this study were 114 children (67 maltreated and 57 non-maltreated) from ages 1 to 4. Child affect and effortful control along with parent affect were observed during a parentchild interaction procedure. Symptoms of psychopathology were measured using the Child Behavior Checklist. The maltreated children in this study exhibited more irritability/anger, affect lability, and internalizing symptomatology, along with less positive affect than their non-maltreated peers. These data also suggest that parental affect is related to internalizing symptomatology; but …

Two gadolinium(III) chelates, GdNP-DO3A (1-methlyene-(p-NitroPhenol)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacycloDOdecane-4,7,10-triAcetate) and GdNP-DO3AM (1-methlyene(p-NitroPhenol)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacycloDOdecane-4,7,10-triacetAMide), containing a single nitrophenolic pendant arm plus either three acetate or three amide pendant arms were synthesized and characterized. The properties of the gadolinium, terbium, and dysprosium complexes of these ligands were examined as a function of pH. The extent and mechanism of the changes in water relaxivity with pH of each gadolinium complex was found to differ substantially for the two complexes. The water relaxivity of Gd(NP-DO3A) increases from 4.1 …

The Collective Selling Of Broadcasting Rights In Team Sports, Tina Heubeck

German Working Papers in Law and Economics

This paper introduces the theory of complementarities to the selling of broadcasting rights in team sports in two ways. Firstly, from a legal point of view such rights should not be centrally sold by the league or the association in order to comply with antitrust law because the league as the only seller demands monopoly prices. However, the problem cannot be solved by simply prohibiting collective selling. Using a variation of Cournot’s model we show that the price of a single game is higher if sold individually by the participating clubs compared to collective selling by the league. Secondly, as …

Effect Of Photoperiodicity On Co2 Fixation By Chlorella Vulgaris Buitenzorg In Bubble Column Photobioreactor For Food Supplement Production, Anondho Wijanarko, Dianursanti Dianursanti, Arief Budi Witarto, Roekmijati Widaningroem Soemantojo

Makara Journal of Technology

To reduce the level of CO2 content in air, effort on converting CO2 to useful products is required. One of the alternatives includes CO2 fixation to produce biomass using Chlorella vulgaris Buitenzorg. Chlorella vulgaris Buitenzorg is applied for production of food supplement. Chlorella vulgaris Buitenzorg is also easy to handle due to its superior adaptation. Currently, Chlorella vulgaris Buitenzorg has been analyzed by some experts for its cellular composition, its ability to produce high quality biomass and the content of essential nutrition. A series of experiments was conducted by culturing Chlorella vulgaris Buitenzorg using Beneck medium in bubbling column photobioreactor. …

Mythcon 35 - Bridges To Other Worlds: Thirty-Five Years Of Mythopoeic Scholarship, The Mythopoeic Society

Mythcon Programs

Mythcon 35's theme focuses on both the Pursuit of mythopoeic scholarship over the past 35 years, and on the image of the bridge in fantasy literature: bridges between fantasy and other literature; influence of fantasy on mainstream art forms; between artists, literary forms, or between text and reader. The work and interests of our Guests of Honor, the Inklings (especially Tolkien, Lewis, and Williams), and other fantasy authors are, of course, always topics at a Mythcon.

Attachment And Depression Differentially Influence Nicotine Dependence Among Male And Female Undergraduates: A Preliminary Study, Dennis E. Mcchargue, Lee M. Cohen, Jessica W. Cook

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

The authors surveyed a convenience sample of 208 undergraduate students who reported that they smoked cigarettes. The primary hypothesis they tested was whether gender predicted nicotine dependence. They further tested whether depression and attachment would mediate or moderate this relationship. Hierarchical regression analyses with social desirability and smoking stage of change entered as covariates indicated that women exhibited greater nicotine dependence than men did (p < .01). Lower attachment scores fully mediated this relationship, whereas elevated depression scores moderated the relationship. These findings suggest that depression and the inability to bond with peers may promote nicotine dependence among young female students.
