Impurity Photomagnetoelectric Effect: Application To Semi-Insulating Gaas, David C. Look
Impurity Photomagnetoelectric Effect: Application To Semi-Insulating Gaas, David C. Look
Physics Faculty Publications
The theories of the photomagnetoelectric (PME) and photoconductivity (PC) effects in semiconductors are extended to include unequal excitation rates of holes and electrons, as might be expected from impurity photo-excitation. The results are applied to two semi-insulating Cr-doped GaAs crystals, which exhibit mixed conductivity. It is seen that the PC and PME effects give complementary information on the holes and electrons. In the impurity excitation region the PME current responds strongly to changes in the absorption coefficient, and provides a convenient way to study this quantity.

Synthesis And Studies Of A Carbon-13 Labelled Chemical Carcinogen, Robert E. Royer
Synthesis And Studies Of A Carbon-13 Labelled Chemical Carcinogen, Robert E. Royer
Chemistry and Chemical Biology ETDs
Derivatives of 6-methylbenzo[a]pyrene enriched to 90% carbon-13 at the methyl carbon were synthesized. Reactions of the carcinogen, 6-chloromethylbenzo[a]pyrene, with nucleophiles under solvolytic conditions were studied kinetically and, using labelled 6-chloromethylbenzo[a]pyrene, the reaction products were studied by CMR. The purpose was to characterize the selectivity of the benzo[a]pyrenyl- 6-methyl carbonium ion in its reactions with some simple nucleophiles and with nucleosides and other nucleic acid components.
Although the solvolysis of 6-chloromethylbenzo[a]pyrene in aqueous/organic solution is first order, information about the course of the reaction can be obtained, under certain circumstances, from rate constants. Thus, if the rate of solvolysis is slowed …

Photochemical Studies Of Hydroxo-Bridged Complexes Of Chromium (Iii), Ronald Raymond Ruminski
Chemistry and Chemical Biology ETDs
The acid solution and solid state photolysis in both visible and ultraviolet regions of the spectrum for µ-hydroxo-bis[pentaamminechromium(III)] chloride, and the solution photolysis in the visible and 1 traviolet region of the spectrum for µ-hydroxo-bis[pentaarnrninechr rnium(III)] perchlorate, have been studied. The ultraviolet irradiation of µ-hydroxo-bis[pentaamminechromium(III)] chloride in HCl and CHlO4 produces a redox photoproduct identified as HCrO4-, although the rate of production of HCrO4- in HClO4 is slower than in HCl. Photochemical cleavage of the hydroxo-bridge occurs in the ultraviolet photolysis of µ -hydroxo-bis[pentaanuninechromium(III)] chloride and is 1.9 times faster than the corresponding …

Observation Of Davydov Splitting In Pts Polydiacetylene Crystal Spectra, Hans Muller, Craig J. Eckhardt
Observation Of Davydov Splitting In Pts Polydiacetylene Crystal Spectra, Hans Muller, Craig J. Eckhardt
Craig J. Eckhardt Publications
The electronic spectra of polydiacetylene crystals have often been typified by poly-2, 4-hexadiyne-1, 6-diol-bis-(p-toluene sulfonate) (PTS). The spectra of crystals of this polydiacetylene have been unique in that they have displayed a pronounced “doubling” of the 300 K spectral bands at temperature below 170 K. The reflection bands are also observed to undergo a continuous red shift with continued decrease of temperature. The reflection band observed at lowest energy at 300 K is resolved at 77 K into two clearly separated bands at 15,700 cm-1 (Ib) and 16,050 cm-1(IIb). A recent study by modulated piezoreflection …

Effects Of Corroboration Instructions In A Rape Case On Experimental Juries, Valerie P. Hans, Neil Brooks
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
The rules of evidence have evolved, in the main, to protect the jury from being misled, prejudiced or confused by certain types of evidence which might be presented to it. The rules attempt to achieve this purpose by utilizing a number of techniques, which were fashioned by common law judges. First, evidence which gives rise to these dangers might be excluded from the jury's consideration altogether. Secondly, such evidence might have to be corroborated by other evidence before the jury is permitted to reach a verdict in the case. Thirdly, the judge might be compelled to instruct the jury that …

An Extension Trapper Program, Jerry Riedel
An Extension Trapper Program, Jerry Riedel
Great Plains Wildlife Damage Control Workshop Proceedings
South Dakota's Extension Trapping Program originated in July 1971 when the Department of Game, Fish and Parks initiated this type of animal damage control program for the eastern one-half of South Dakota. The funding for this program is derived by assessing a surtax on all farmers and ranchers at a rate of 1 cent per head on all cattle and 4 cent per head on all sheep. The monies gained here is then annually matched by the Game, Fish and Parks through hunting, fishing and trapping license by the Game, Fish and Parks. However, for the last two years a …
Brief Summary Of Prebaiting Study For Prairie Dog Control, Ken Seyler
Brief Summary Of Prebaiting Study For Prairie Dog Control, Ken Seyler
Great Plains Wildlife Damage Control Workshop Proceedings
Attached are two tables summarizing data collected during a pre-baiting study for prairie dog control. The study was conducted in the Pryor, Montana area of Big Horn County, July 13-21, 1977, and in the Tongue River area of Custer County, Montana, August 24-September 3, 1977, and October 17-24, 1977. Applications of strychnine oats (Sebesta's .44%) and zinc phosphide oats (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Pocatello Suppy Depot, 2%) with and without prebait (steamrolled oats) were compared for effectiveness in the control of prairie dogs.
Influence Of Endomycorrhizae On Growth Of Sweetgum Seedlings From Eight Mother Trees, Richard C. Schultz, Paul P. Kormanik, William C. Bryan
Influence Of Endomycorrhizae On Growth Of Sweetgum Seedlings From Eight Mother Trees, Richard C. Schultz, Paul P. Kormanik, William C. Bryan
Richard C. Schultz
Sweetgum seedlings from eight mother trees were grown in fumigated soil with or without the endomycorrhizal fungus Glomus mosseae at four levels of soil fertility for one growing season in nursery microplots. Nonmycorrhizal seedlings of all families died or failed to exceed 5 cm in height regardless of soil fertility. Endomycorrhizal seedlings suffered little mortality, averaged about 36 cm in height, and fertility level did not significantly influence their biomass. These results demonstrate that to increase the percentage of plantable seedlings in nurseries sweetgum seedlings must be endomycorrhizal. The data further suggests that adequate endomycorrhizal inoculum in nursery beds can …

Trapper Education And Furbearer Management, Edward K. Boggess
Trapper Education And Furbearer Management, Edward K. Boggess
Great Plains Wildlife Damage Control Workshop Proceedings
Modern concepts of furbearer harvest on a controlled, sustained-yield basis are in accordance with recognized principles of wildlife management and natural resource conservation. Steel traps, in the hands of private citizens and regulated by state fish and game agencies, have been the primary tools used in this country for managing furbearers. Fur resource managers recognize that traps are important tools not only in furbearer management, but also in some programs of wildlife damage or disease control. Traps also provide a major source of outdoor recreation for many people.

The Use Of Aversive Agents For Predator Control, M.P. Botkin
Great Plains Wildlife Damage Control Workshop Proceedings
The studies have continued in the search for potentially aversive compounds and mixtures. To date, undecenovanillylamide is the most effective substance found and is most effective in a mixture with p-dichlorobenzene. Three materials which have been tested actually appear to stimulate attack by coyotes on the treated animal. These are: Skatol (a fecal compound), Naphthalene and Thiomalic acid ( a foul sulpher-like odor).

Usda Research On Impacts Of Predation, Russell L. Gum, Richard S. Magleby
Great Plains Wildlife Damage Control Workshop Proceedings
This research by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service, was done at the direct request of Congress, and with special funding in fiscal years 1974 and 1975. Basic questions guiding the research were: 1. How sizable are predation losses? How many producers are effected? 2. What effect has predation had on the decline of the sheep industry? 3. What are benefits and cost of predator control programs?
The Effects Of Coyote Control Operations On Non-Target Species In New Mexico, Gary Lee Nunley
The Effects Of Coyote Control Operations On Non-Target Species In New Mexico, Gary Lee Nunley
Great Plains Wildlife Damage Control Workshop Proceedings
In February of 1972 the use of compound 1080, sodium cyanide, and strychnine in Federal coyote control programs and on Federal lands was halted as directed by Executive Order 11643. Shortly thereafter, the Environmental Protection Agency cancelled the registration of these same toxicants as used in predator control. These actions were taken at the recommendation of the Advisory Committee on Predator Control in their report to the Council of Environmental Quality and to the Department of the Interior.

The project is directed from Denver, with several biologists and technicians at field stations located in Twin Falls, Idaho; Uvalde, Texas; and Rawlins, Wyoming, as well as in Denver. This is a brief summary of our efforts during the past 12 months and should be considered an informal progress report.
A Mammalogist's View Of Current Mammal Damage Control Trends, Sydney Anderson
A Mammalogist's View Of Current Mammal Damage Control Trends, Sydney Anderson
Great Plains Wildlife Damage Control Workshop Proceedings
Different mammalogists have different views on this subject. The following are mine. Historically, there was considerable controversy in the American Society of Mammalogists around 1930 on the question of predator control. The primary reasons for these different views, then and also now, are different value judgements. Science without non-scientific value judgements is not sufficient to lead one to a single view or set of views. Science embodies certain value judgments such as honesty, the public value of human knowledge, objectivity, the desirability of formulating testable hypotheses, and the examination of all relevant and available evidence. Scientists are human beings and …
Predation On Furbearers And Management Alternatives, Ronald D. Andrews
Predation On Furbearers And Management Alternatives, Ronald D. Andrews
Great Plains Wildlife Damage Control Workshop Proceedings
Most of the presentations from other members of the panel have discussed direct predation of one animal upon another with evidence and data to support it. Their presentations indicate that in some instances, considerable data has been collected that substantiates the fact that predation has been and can be a limiting factor in sustaining certain local animal populations. Suggestions have also been made concerning management alternatives that might help to reduce this predatory impact when desirable. Predation on furbearers and its impact is considerably more ambiguous and abstract. Facts and data concerning significant predation on furbearers, except for mink on …

The Electrical Characterization Of Semi‐Insulating Gaas: A Correlation With Mass‐Spectrographic Analysis, David C. Look
The Electrical Characterization Of Semi‐Insulating Gaas: A Correlation With Mass‐Spectrographic Analysis, David C. Look
Physics Faculty Publications
The room‐temperature electrical properties of 28 semi‐insulating GaAs crystals have been determined by using a mixed‐conductivity analysis. It is shown that for most of these samples, such an analysis gives good accuracy for the electron mobility μn and electron concentration n, but poorer accuracy for the hole mobility μp, hole concentration p, and intrinsic concentration ni. The intrinsic concentration is determined at 296 °K to be ni ≈ (1.7±0.4) ×106 cm−3, which compares favorably with the theoretical value deduced from the band gap and the effective masses. From a …

Youth Fur Harvest Programs, Edward K. Boggess
Youth Fur Harvest Programs, Edward K. Boggess
Great Plains Wildlife Damage Control Workshop Proceedings
Youth fur harvest programs in Kansas have been developed as one phase of an overall series of youth education projects on ecology and the environment. Currently, the series includes Ecology, Acres for Wildlife, Kansas Mammals, Birds Around You, Reptiles and Amphibians, Fur Harvest, and Fishing. Basically, the fur harvester project was developed because, although many young people in the state are interested in trapping, few good sources of information or instruction were available to most young trappers. Because many objectionable trapping abuses are unintentionally caused by young or inexperienced trappers, it was hoped that this project would encourage ethical and …

Aspects Of Reproduction And Population Dynamics Of Bobcats In Wyoming, Douglas M. Crowe
Great Plains Wildlife Damage Control Workshop Proceedings
Distribution of the bobcat includes the 48 contiguous United States and limited occupance of southern Canada and northern Mexico. There are 11 subspecies, the one in Wyoming being Lynx rufus pallescens. Bobcats inhabit an amazing variety of habitat types, from northern boreal forests, southern swamp, and cane regions to the below sea level desert of Death Valley, California. Throughout this vast area, they utilize a wide variety of prey species. One study in Wyoming revealed at least 18 different species in the stomachs of bobcats; the cottontail rabbit being predominant. A similar study in New England revealed 20 different …

Coydogs In Nebraska, Brian R. Mahan
Coydogs In Nebraska, Brian R. Mahan
Great Plains Wildlife Damage Control Workshop Proceedings
Skulls of 44 suspected coyote (Canis latrans) x dog (C. familiaris) hybrids, "coydogs" were collected in Nebraska from September 1975 through April 1976. Each skull was compared statistically with skulls of known coyotes, dogs, coydogs, gray wolves (C. lupus), and red wolves (C. rufus) for identification. Thirty-two males were identified as: 5 coyotes, 2 dogs, 25 coydogs; 12 females were identified as: 4 coyotes, 2 dogs, 6 coydogs. Three concentrations of hybrids were located in southeastern Nebraska.
