Description Of Versatile Optical Polarimetric Scatterometer That Measures All 16 Elements Of The Mueller Matrix For Reflection And Transmission: Application To Measurements Of Scatter Cross Sections, Ellipsometric Parameters, Optical Activity, And The Complex Chiral Parameters, Ezekiel Bahar, Robert D. Kubik

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: Faculty Publications

A detailed description of an optical polarimetric scatterometer, its capabilities, and special application are presented. This instrument measures the 44 Mueller matrix elements as well as bidirectional reflective distribution functions scatter cross sectionsfor light that is scattered from a target. Incident polarized light at wavelengths =0.6328 and =1.06 m can be directed toward the target in an arbitrary direction. The receiver can be located anywhere in the solid angle 4. Backscatter measurements, most commonly used in remote sensing, can also be obtained. The scatterometer has been used to validate different analytical/numerical solutions to a broad class of electromagnetic scattering problems, …

Early And Late Diagenetic Processes Of Mississippian Carbonates, Northern U.S. Rockies, David Allen Katz Sep 2008

Early And Late Diagenetic Processes Of Mississippian Carbonates, Northern U.S. Rockies, David Allen Katz

Open Access Dissertations

Integrated sequence stratigraphy and geochemistry has significantly improved our knowledge of the formation and distribution of early and late diagenetic products in North American Mississippian carbonates. Deposition of the Madison Limestone occurred in concert with a major perturbation to the global C-pool, the timing of which was constrained by comparing secular variations in the delta13C values from the Madison Limestone with limited biostratigraphy. These early constraints were then improved by peak matching of 87Sr/86Sr values from this study with European brachiopod 87Sr/86Sr. The secular variations in the delta13C values were then applied as a chronostratigraphic tool to outcrops and subsurface …

Addressing Climate Change With A Comprehensive U.S. Cap-And-Trade System, Robert Stavins Sep 2008

Addressing Climate Change With A Comprehensive U.S. Cap-And-Trade System, Robert Stavins

Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei Working Papers

There is growing impetus for a domestic U.S. climate policy that can provide meaningful reductions in emissions of CO2 and other greenhouse gases. I describe and analyze an up- stream, economy-wide CO2 cap-and-trade system which implements a gradual trajectory of emissions reductions (with inclusion over time of non-CO2 greenhouse gases), and includes mechanisms to reduce cost uncertainty. Initially, half of the allowances are allocated through auction and half through free distribution, with the share being auctioned gradually increasing to 100 percent over 25 years. The system provides for linkage with emission reduction credit projects in other countries, harmonization over time …


Impact Of Revised Co2 Growth Projections For China On Global Stabilization Goals, Geoffrey J. Blanford, Richard G. Richels, Thomas F. Rutherford Sep 2008

Impact Of Revised Co2 Growth Projections For China On Global Stabilization Goals, Geoffrey J. Blanford, Richard G. Richels, Thomas F. Rutherford

Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei Working Papers

Recent growth in carbon dioxide emissions from China’s energy sector has exceeded expectations. In a major US government study of future emissions released in 2007 (1), participating models appear to have substantially underestimated the near-term rate of increase in China’s emissions. We present a recalibration of one of those models to be consistent with both current observations and historical development patterns. The implications of the new specification for the feasibility of commonly discussed stabilization targets, particularly when considering incomplete global participation, are profound. Unless China’s emissions begin to depart soon from their (newly projected) business-as-usual path, stringent stabilization goals may …


Embedding Landfill Diversion In Economic, Geographical And Policy Settings Panel Based Evidence From Italy, Massimiliano Mazzanti, Anna Montini, Francesco Nicolli Sep 2008

Embedding Landfill Diversion In Economic, Geographical And Policy Settings Panel Based Evidence From Italy, Massimiliano Mazzanti, Anna Montini, Francesco Nicolli

Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei Working Papers

This paper analyses the process of delinking for landfilling trends embedding the dynamics in a frame where economic, geographical and policy variables enter the arena We aim at investigating in depth what main drivers may be responsible for such a phenomenon, and whether differences may be observed focusing the lens on a decentralised provincial based setting. We exploit a rich panel dataset stemming from Official sources (APAT, Italian environmental agency) merged with other provincial and regional based information, covering all the 103 Italian provinces over 1999-2005. The case study on Italy is worth being considered given that Italy is a …


To Love Your Neighbor: A Christian Perspective On The Study Of Microbiology And Immunology, Joy Doan Sep 2008

To Love Your Neighbor: A Christian Perspective On The Study Of Microbiology And Immunology, Joy Doan

Faith Learning Integration Papers

I have been blessed with enough of a sense of adventure to have experienced the awe-inspiring beauty of a rain forest at night, the top of Half Dome at Yosemite National Park, the sheer cliffs and rushing waters of the Narrows at Zion National Park, Plateau Point—which seems suspended in the Grand Canyon, and the top of a 14,000-foot peak in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. These are the types of places about which one of the characters in Robert Pirsig’s Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance observes, “This is the hardest stuff in the world to photograph. You …
