From e(+)e(-) collision data acquired with the CLEO-c detector at CESR, we search for the non-D (D) over bar decays psi(3770)->gamma chi(cJ), with chi(cJ) reconstructed in four exclusive decays modes containing charged pions and kaons. We report the first observation of such decays for J=0 with a branching ratio of (0.73 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.06)%. The rates for different J are consistent with the expectations assuming psi(3770) is predominantly a 1(3)D(1) state of charmonium, but only if relativistic corrections are applied.


Magnetic Excitations Of Stripes And Checkerboards In The Cuprates, D. X. Yao, E. W. Carlson, D. K. Campbell Jan 2006

Magnetic Excitations Of Stripes And Checkerboards In The Cuprates, D. X. Yao, E. W. Carlson, D. K. Campbell

Department of Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications

We discuss the magnetic excitations of well-ordered stripe and checkerboard phases, including the high energy magnetic excitations of recent interest and possible connections to the "resonance peak" in cuprate superconductors. Using a suitably parametrized Heisenberg model and spin wave theory, we study a variety of magnetically ordered configurations, including vertical and diagonal site- and bond-centered stripes and simple checkerboards. We calculate the expected neutron scattering intensities as a function of energy and momentum. At zero frequency, the satellite peaks of even square-wave stripes are suppressed by as much as a factor of 34 below the intensity of the main incommensurate …

Innate Antiviral Response Targets Hiv-1 Release By The Induction Of Ubiquitin-Like Protein Isg15, Atsushi Okumura, Gengshi Lu, Ian Pitha-Rowe, Paula M. Pitha Jan 2006

Innate Antiviral Response Targets Hiv-1 Release By The Induction Of Ubiquitin-Like Protein Isg15, Atsushi Okumura, Gengshi Lu, Ian Pitha-Rowe, Paula M. Pitha

Dartmouth Scholarship

The goal of this study was to elucidate the molecular mechanism by which type I IFN inhibits assembly and release of HIV-1 virions. Our study revealed that the IFN-induced ubiquitin-like protein ISG15 mimics the IFN effect and inhibits release of HIV-1 virions without having any effect on the synthesis of HIV-1 proteins in the cells. ISG15 expression specifically inhibited ubiquitination of Gag and Tsg101 and disrupted the interaction of the Gag L domain with Tsg101, but conjugation of ISG15 to Gag or Tsg101 was not detected. The inhibition of Gag-Tsg101 interaction was also detected in HIV-1 infected, IFN-treated cells. Elimination …


A New Theory And Measure Of Ethical Work Climate: The Psychological Process Model (Ppm) And The Ethical Climate Index (Eci), Anke Arnaud Jan 2006

A New Theory And Measure Of Ethical Work Climate: The Psychological Process Model (Ppm) And The Ethical Climate Index (Eci), Anke Arnaud

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

With this dissertation I developed a new theory and measure of ethical work climate (EWC). Currently, there exists one dominant theory and measure of EWC developed by Victor and Cullen (1988, 1987). Even though researchers have identified problems with this theory, such as inconsistencies with regard to its limited theoretical scope and troubling psychometric properties, it is the most widely utilized framework for conceptualizing and testing EWC. Therefore, I propose to develop an improved theory and measure of EWC, one capable of addressing some of the principle shortcomings of earlier efforts. Building on Rest's (1986, 1979) "Four-Component" model of individual-level …


Epidemiological Models For Mutating Pathogens With Temporary Immunity, Neeta Singh Jan 2006

Epidemiological Models For Mutating Pathogens With Temporary Immunity, Neeta Singh

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Significant progress has been made in understanding different scenarios for disease transmissions and behavior of epidemics in recent years. A considerable amount of work has been done in modeling the dynamics of diseases by systems of ordinary differential equations. But there are very few mathematical models that deal with the genetic mutations of a pathogen. In-fact, not much has been done to model the dynamics of mutations of pathogen explaining its effort to escape the host's immune defense system after it has infected the host. In this dissertation we develop an SIR model with variable infection age for the transmission …


An Exploratory Study Of Socially Responsibleprocurement Activitiesin The Expenditure Of Public Fundsat The State And Local Level, Donna Mccarthy Jan 2006

An Exploratory Study Of Socially Responsibleprocurement Activitiesin The Expenditure Of Public Fundsat The State And Local Level, Donna Mccarthy

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The aggregate annual expenditures of federal, state and local governments, in concert with universities and school districts represents incredible purchasing power and requires great prowess in its expenditure. Over the course of centuries, procurement has been used as a policy tool to improve society. This research delved into defining and determining the involvement of state and local governments in socially responsible activities related to the expenditure of public funds. Data collected in 2005 by the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing, Inc., was reviewed to determine if the expectations set for the private sector known as corporate social responsibility could be …

A Feeling For The Micro-Organism: Structure On A Small Scale. Biofilms On Plant Roots, Nancy Fujishige Jan 2006

A Feeling For The Micro-Organism: Structure On A Small Scale. Biofilms On Plant Roots, Nancy Fujishige

Biology Faculty Works

Biofilms are structured communities of bacterial cells enclosed in a self-produced polymeric matrix and adherent to an inert or living surface; they have clinical, industrial and environmental impacts. Biofilms that are established by bacteria on plants are found on the surfaces of roots, leaves, seeds and internal vascular tissues where the microbes live in commensal, mutualistic or parasitic/pathogenic associations with their host. The study of the structure of plant-associated biofilms has been considerably helped by the development of techniques using fluorescent markers coupled with confocal scanning laser microscopy as well as scanning electron microscopy. We review several of these techniques …

2005 Cardozo International Advocate For Peace Award: Acceptance Speech, Betty Kaari Murungi Jan 2006

2005 Cardozo International Advocate For Peace Award: Acceptance Speech, Betty Kaari Murungi

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

Thank you very much for this truly inspiring award, which I am honored to accept on my own behalf and on behalf of the many women with whom I have been privileged to work over the years. The award is presented against the backdrop of two historic international events: the passing of Rosa Parks and the announcement of the victory of Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf as the first elected female head of state of an African country.


Obstruction Of Justice: The Arbitration Process For Anti-Doping Violations During The Olympic Games, Andrew Goldstone Jan 2006

Obstruction Of Justice: The Arbitration Process For Anti-Doping Violations During The Olympic Games, Andrew Goldstone

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

This Note will discuss the serious legal, ethical, and scientific questions raised by the dispute resolution process for anti-doping violations during the Olympic Games. Throughout the Note, I will highlight both procedural and substantive aspects of the process which raise sufficiently serious legal issues to merit an American court's agreement to review an Olympic arbitration award. Part I will discuss the rise of doping in sports, and the manner in which the problem has been, and is currently being addressed within the Olympic Movement. Part II will explain the hierarchy of sports governing bodies beneath the IOC and also discuss …


The Role Of Citizens And The Future Of International Law: A Paradigm For A Changing World, Avnita Lakhani Jan 2006

The Role Of Citizens And The Future Of International Law: A Paradigm For A Changing World, Avnita Lakhani

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

Time is on our side and security is to be found, only if we would have a change of heart about the role that citizens can play in the future of international law. True, citizens do play a role in the development and enforcement of domestic laws, especially in more democratic and Western societies. Citizens have also had significant influence in the development of international law. However, citizens (i.e. non-state actors) have not had a direct hand in the enforcement of international law through private action as accorded to state-actors (i.e. governments). This means that citizens, in most cases, have …
