A New High Pressure Sapphire Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Cell, Shi Bai, Craig M. Taylor, Charles L. Mayne, Ronald J. Pugmire, David M. Grant Jan 1996

A New High Pressure Sapphire Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Cell, Shi Bai, Craig M. Taylor, Charles L. Mayne, Ronald J. Pugmire, David M. Grant

Faculty Publications

A new version of a single-crystal sapphire high pressure nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) cell is described that is capable of controlling the sample pressure independent of the temperature. A movable piston inside the cell adjusts and controls the sample pressure from ambient conditions to 200 atm within plus or minus 0.3 atm. The linewidth at half-height for a 13C spectrum of carbon dioxide at 15degrees C and 57.8 atm is found to be 0.5 Hz. The carbon dioxide gas/liquid phase transition is clearly observed by measuring 13C chemical shifts as the sample pressure approaches equilibrium. The time required for this …

Faculty Publications

We present measurements of the structure function F2 in e+p scattering at HERA in the range 3.5 GeV2 < Q2 < 5000 GeV2. A new reconstruction method has allowed a significant improvement in the resolution of the kinematic variables and an extension of the kinematic region covered by the experiment. At Q2 < 35 GeV2 the range in x now spans 6.3 · 10-5 < x < 0.08 providing overlap with measurements from fixed target experiments. At values of Q2 above 1000 GeV2 the x range extends to 0.5. Systematic errors below 5% have been achieved for most of the kinematic region. The structure function rises as x decreases; the rise becomes more pronounced as Q2 increases. The behaviour of the structure function data is well described by next-to-leading order perturbative QCD as implemented in the DGLAP evolution equations. © Springer-Verlag 1996.

© Springer-Verlag 1996. Diffractive scattering of γ∗p → X + N, where N is either a proton or a nucleonic system with MN < 4 GeV has been measured in deep inelastic scattering (DIS) at HERA. The cross section was determined by a novel method as a function of the γ∗p c.m. energy W between 60 and 245 GeV and of the mass MX of the system X up to 15 GeV at average Q2 values of 14 and 31 GeV2. The diffractive cross section dσdi f f /dMX is, within errors, found to rise linearly with W. Parameterizing the W dependence by the form dσdi f f /dMX ∞ (W2)(2αIP - 2) the DIS data yield for the pomeron trajectory αIP = 1.23±0.02(stat)±0.04(syst) averaged over t in the measured kinematic range assuming the longitudinal photon contribution to be zero. This value for the pomeron trajectory is substantially larger than αIP extracted from soft interactions. The value of αIP measured in this analysis suggests that a substantial part of the diffractive DIS cross section originates from processes which can be described by perturbative QCD. From the measured diffractive cross sections the diffractive structure function of the proton F2D(3) (β,Q2, xIP) has been determined, where β is the momentum fraction of the struck quark in the pomeron. The form F2D(3) = constant·(1/xIP)a gives a good fit to the data in all β and Q2 intervals with a = 1.46 ± 0.04(stat) ± 0.08(syst).

Seismogeological Features Of The Crust In Romania, V Mocanu, C Dinu, F Radulescu, M Diaconescu, Camelia C. Diaconescu, A Pompilian Jan 1996

Seismogeological Features Of The Crust In Romania, V Mocanu, C Dinu, F Radulescu, M Diaconescu, Camelia C. Diaconescu, A Pompilian

Faculty Publications

The Romanian area consists of old consolidated units of pre-Alpine age (the Moesian, Moldavian and Scythian platforms) and Alpine orogenic units (the Carpathian arc and North-Dobrudjan orogen). General seismogeological peculiarities of the pre-Alpine tectonic units are presented, as well as some structural characteristics of the Transylvanian Basin and the Pannonian Depression. Both shallow and deep seismic reflection/refraction data as well as log information and some potential field data were used for the investigation of the crustal structure. The varibility in the seismogeological pattern and crustal thickness shown by the different tectonic units is due to the differences in structure and …

Galvanostatic Pulse And Pulse Reverse Plating Of Zinc-Nickel Alloys From Sulfate Electrolytes On A Rotating Disc Electrode, Branko N Popov, M. Ramasubramanian, S. N. Popova, Ralph E. White, K-M. Yin Jan 1996

Galvanostatic Pulse And Pulse Reverse Plating Of Zinc-Nickel Alloys From Sulfate Electrolytes On A Rotating Disc Electrode, Branko N Popov, M. Ramasubramanian, S. N. Popova, Ralph E. White, K-M. Yin

Faculty Publications

Galvanostatic pulse and pulse reverse techniques have been used to study the plating of zinc–nickel alloys in the presence of nonyl phenyl polyethylene oxide. The effects of average current density, rotation speed of disc electrode and the presence of nonyl phenyl polyethylene oxide in the electrolyte on deposition of zinc–nickel alloys were evaluated. Zinc–nickel plating bath solution chemistry was studied by determining the equilibrium concentrations at various pH levels. It was found that the alloy composition was determined by solution equilibria, mass transfer of the electroactive species within the diffusion layer and by the surface coverage of nonyl phenyl polyethylene …

Model Equations From Gyrokinetic Theory For A Non-Neutral Plasma To Include Temperature Effects And Applications To A Plasma Of Infinite Length, S. Neil Rasband Jan 1996

Model Equations From Gyrokinetic Theory For A Non-Neutral Plasma To Include Temperature Effects And Applications To A Plasma Of Infinite Length, S. Neil Rasband

Faculty Publications

Gyrokinetic equations are derived for applications to non-neutral plasmas in constant, straight magnetic fields wherein E X B drift velocities are of the same order as thermal velocities. The ratio of the E X B rotation frequency to the cyclotron frequency and the ratio of the gyroradius to a plasma scale length are assumed to be of order epsilon and terms are retained in the gyrokinetic expansion to second order to include finite-Larmor-radius (FLR) effects. A mode equation is obtained for a non-neutral plasma in the infinite-length approximation. The singularities of this equation are compared and contrasted with the familiar …

High-Sensitivity Absorption Spectroscopy In Fe Ii, Scott D. Bergeson, K. L. Mullman, J. E. Lawler Jan 1996

High-Sensitivity Absorption Spectroscopy In Fe Ii, Scott D. Bergeson, K. L. Mullman, J. E. Lawler

Faculty Publications

We report the first measurements of UV oscillator strengths (ƒ-values) in Fe II from a high-sensitivity absorption experiment developed at the University of Wisconsin. The accuracy of our measurements is demonstrated by our reproducing well-known ƒ-value ratios in Fe I and Fe II. The first laboratory ƒ-value measurement of the 160.845 nm transition in Fe II is presented and compared to values in the literature. While this paper focuses on Fe II, the high-sensitivity absorption method that we have developed is applicable to essentially every element in the periodic table, for both neutral and ionized species, over a broad range …

Branching Fractions And Oscillator Strengths For Fe Ii Transitions From The 3d6(5D)4p Subconfiguration, Scott D. Bergeson, K. L. Mullman, M. E. Wickliffe, J. E. Lawler

Faculty Publications

New experimental branching fractions and transition probabilities are reported for 56 transitions in Fe II. The branching fractions are measured with a Fourier transform spectrometer and also with a high-resolution grating spectrometer on a n optically thin hollow cathode discharge. Highly accurate experimental radiative lifetimes from the recent literature provide the normalization required to convert our branching fractions into absolute transition probabilities. Results are compared with experimental and theoretical values in the literature. Our new transition probabilities will establish the absolute scale for relative absorption oscillator strengths of vacuum ultraviolet lines measured using a new high-sensitivity absorption experiment at the …

Observation Of Beam-Induced Changes In The Polarization Of Balmer-Α Radiation Emitted Following Beam--Tilted-Foil Transmission, Wang Qi, David D. Allred, Larry V. Knight, Douglas L. Harper, Royal G. Albridge, Norman H. Tolk Dec 1995

Observation Of Beam-Induced Changes In The Polarization Of Balmer-Α Radiation Emitted Following Beam--Tilted-Foil Transmission, Wang Qi, David D. Allred, Larry V. Knight, Douglas L. Harper, Royal G. Albridge, Norman H. Tolk

Faculty Publications

Measurements of the circular polarization of Balmer-α radiation emitted by excited hydrogen atoms, following the transmission of (20-50)-keV protons through thin, tilted amorphous carbon foils, exhibit markedly unexpected behavior as a function of exposure of the foil to the proton beam. Specifically, the circular polarization changes from an initially well understood tilt-angle dependence to a behavior which, for low tilt angles, gives the opposite handedness of circular polarization from that predicted. In addition, the degree of alignment, indicated by the linear Stokes parameter M/I, is enhanced also as a function of dose. These changes in the tilt-angle dependence of the …

Dynamics Of Binary Liquids In Pores, J.C. Lee Dec 1995

Dynamics Of Binary Liquids In Pores, J.C. Lee

Faculty Publications

A computer simulation is performed to study the dynamics of binary liquids in the pores of Vycor glasses. The pores are modeled with glass walls that form randomly interconnected tunnels. When the relaxation is probed with a particular wavelength, the time autocorrelation function depends on whether or not there is a significant periodic or quasiperiodic structure in the distribution of the walls with that wavelength. If there is not, the relaxation may be fitted as the sum of an exponential term and a nonexponential activated term. If there is, the relaxation shows a long-lasting tail that can be fitted by …

Structure Factors Of Binary Fluids In A Dilute Gel, J.C. Lee Oct 1995

Structure Factors Of Binary Fluids In A Dilute Gel, J.C. Lee

Faculty Publications

The statio and dynamic structure factors of binary fluids in a dilute gel are computed using a two-dimensional kinetic Ising model. The wetting effect of the gel strands is modeled with ''gel atoms'' which are distributed randomly among the spins and impose a field on their neighboring spins, all in the same direction. The result for the static structure factor shows the presence of adsorption clusters which mask the gel atoms. The result for the dynamic Structure factor shows an extremely slow relaxation-at late times which cannot be fitted in the form of the activated dynamic scaling known for random-field …

A Provably Convergent Dynamic Training Method For Multi-Layer Perceptron Networks, Timothy L. Andersen, Tony R. Martinez Sep 1995

A Provably Convergent Dynamic Training Method For Multi-Layer Perceptron Networks, Timothy L. Andersen, Tony R. Martinez

Faculty Publications

This paper presents a new method for training multi-layer perceptron networks called DMP1 (Dynamic Multilayer Perceptron 1). The method is based upon a divide and conquer approach which builds networks in the form of binary trees, dynamically allocating nodes and layers as needed. The individual nodes of the network are trained using a genetic algorithm. The method is capable of handling real-valued inputs and a proof is given concerning its convergence properties of the basic model. Simulation results show that DMP1 performs favorably in comparison with other learning algorithms.

Ultrastructural Immunolocalization Of Histones (H2b, H3, H4), Transition Protein (Tp1) And Protamine In Rabbit Spermatids And Spermatozoa Nuclei. Relation To Condensation Of The Chromatin, J L. Courtens, Wilson Stephen Kistler, L Plöen Aug 1995

Ultrastructural Immunolocalization Of Histones (H2b, H3, H4), Transition Protein (Tp1) And Protamine In Rabbit Spermatids And Spermatozoa Nuclei. Relation To Condensation Of The Chromatin, J L. Courtens, Wilson Stephen Kistler, L Plöen

Faculty Publications

The histones H2B, H3 and H4, the transition protein TP1 and protamine were localised using ultrastructural immunocytochemistry in nuclei of rabbit spermatids and spermatozoa. Histones are present in round spermatid nuclei and are lost during the elongation of nuclei. TP1 and protamine appear simultaneously in all nuclei during this period. TP1 is located at the periphery of chromatin cords, while protamine seems to be located at random in the same cords. TP1 is lost in most elongated sprematids during step 13 of spermiogenesis, and the protamine stays in all sperm nuclei. TP1 remains persent in some old spermatids and ejaculated …

An Integrated Framework For Learning And Reasoning, Christophe G. Giraud-Carrier, Tony R. Martinez Aug 1995

An Integrated Framework For Learning And Reasoning, Christophe G. Giraud-Carrier, Tony R. Martinez

Faculty Publications

Learning and reasoning are both aspects of what is considered to be intelligence. Their studies within AI have been separated historically, learning being the topic of machine learning and neural networks, and reasoning falling under classical (or symbolic) AI. However, learning and reasoning are in many ways interdependent. This paper discusses the nature of some of these interdependencies and proposes a general framework called FLARE, that combines inductive learning using prior knowledge together with reasoning in a propositional setting. Several examples that test the framework are presented, including classical induction, many important reasoning protocols and two simple expert systems.

Numerical Calculation Of Axisymmetric Electrostatic Modes For Cold Finite-Length Non-Neutral Plasmas, Johnny K. Jennings, Ross L. Spencer, K. C. Hansen Jul 1995

Numerical Calculation Of Axisymmetric Electrostatic Modes For Cold Finite-Length Non-Neutral Plasmas, Johnny K. Jennings, Ross L. Spencer, K. C. Hansen

Faculty Publications

A numerical calculation of mode frequencies for cold, non-neutral plasmas is reported. The numerical method can be applied to any axisymmetric plasma shape in a trap. Here, it is used to study axisymmetric electrostatic modes in a long conducting cylinder. These modes were previously studied by Prasad and O'Neil [Phys. Fluids 26, 665 (1983)] and by Dubin [Phys. Rev. Lett. 66, 2076 (1991)]. In contrast to Dubin's calculation, the effects of a nearby cylindrical wall, including its influence on the shape of the plasma equilibrium, are considered. It is found that for plasmas with aspect ratios (length divided by diameter) …

Computer Simulation Study Of The Permeability Of Driven Polymers Through Porous Media, Grace M. Foo, Ras B. Pandey Jun 1995

Computer Simulation Study Of The Permeability Of Driven Polymers Through Porous Media, Grace M. Foo, Ras B. Pandey

Faculty Publications

A computer simulation model is used to study the permeability of polymer chains driven by a biased flow field through a porous medium in two dimensions. The chains are modeled by constrained self-avoiding walks, which reptate through the heterogeneous medium with a biased probability imposed by the driven field. A linear response description is used to evaluate an effective permeability. The permeability σ shows an unusual decay behavior on reducing the porosity ps. We find that the permeability decreases on increasing the bias above a characteristic value Bc. This characteristic bias shows a logarithmic decay on …

Hodographs And Normals Of Rational Curves And Surfaces, Thomas W. Sederberg, Takafumi Saito, Guo-Jin Wang Jun 1995

Hodographs And Normals Of Rational Curves And Surfaces, Thomas W. Sederberg, Takafumi Saito, Guo-Jin Wang

Faculty Publications

Derivatives and normals of rational Bézier curves and surface patches are discussed. A non-uniformly scaled hodograph of a degree m x n tensor-product rational surface, which provides correct derivative direction but not magnitude, can be written as a degree (2m - 2) x 2n or 2m x (2n - 2) vector function in polynomial Bézier form. Likewise, the scaled normal direction is degree (3m - 2) x(3n - 2). Efficient methods are developed for bounding these directions and the derivative magnitude.

The Effect Of Domain Knowledge On Elementary School Children's Search Behavior On An Information Retrieval System: The Science Library Catalog, Sandra Hirsh

Faculty Publications

Few information retrieval systems are designed with children’s special needs and capabilities in mind. We need to learn more about children’s information-seeking behavior in order to provide them with information-based tools which support exploratory learning. This dissertation examines children’s search behavior on a hypertext-based automated library catalog designed for elementary school children. The focus of this research is on the effect of domain knowledge on children’s search performance, search behavior, and learning as they look for science books on this system. Reseaxch has shown that level of domain knowledge in~luences the way people search for information. Data was collected through …

Accuracy Of Deoxynucleotide Incorporation By Soybean Chloroplast Dna-Polymerases Is Independent Of The Presence Of A 3' To 5' Exonuclease, J. Clinton Bailey Ii, Sabine Heinhorst, Gordon C. Cannon Apr 1995

Accuracy Of Deoxynucleotide Incorporation By Soybean Chloroplast Dna-Polymerases Is Independent Of The Presence Of A 3' To 5' Exonuclease, J. Clinton Bailey Ii, Sabine Heinhorst, Gordon C. Cannon

Faculty Publications

DNA polymerase was purified from soybean (Glycine max) chloroplasts that were actively replicating DNA. The main form (form I) of the enzyme was associated with a low level of 3' to 5' exonuclease activity throughout purification, although the ratio of exonuclease to polymerase activity decreased with each successive purification step. A second form (form II) of DNA polymerase, which elutes from DEAE-cellulose at a higher salt concentration than form I, was devoid of any exonuclease activity. To assess the potential function of the 3' to 5' exonuclease in proofreading, the fidelity of deoxynucleotide incorporation was measured for form I DNA …

Computer-Simulation Study Of The Permeability Of A Porous Sediment Model, Ras B. Pandey, Jeffrey L. Becklehimer

Faculty Publications

A computer simulation model is used to study the permeability of fluid flow through porous media generated by the random distribution of the sediments in a two-dimensional lattice. Fluid particles are confined to pore space with the sediments forming the rigid barriers at the pore boundaries. An interaction between the fluid particles and the pore substrate is introduced to incorporate the additional drag in the pore space. The pressure gradient causes a bias to drive the fluid and the Metropolis algorithm is used to hop the fluid particles. The permeability of this system is studied as a function of the …
