Doppler-Broadening Of Light Nuclei Gamma-Ray Spectra, Melinda D. Whitfield
Doppler-Broadening Of Light Nuclei Gamma-Ray Spectra, Melinda D. Whitfield
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Non-destructive methods of material interrogation are used to locate hidden explosives and thwart terrorism attempts. In one such method materials are bombarded with neutrons which react with the nuclei of the atoms within causing a de-excitation process emitting a gamma-ray. The spectrum displayed by the collection of these gamma-rays gives valuable information regarding the material’s elemental make-up.

Monopoly, Regulation, And Innovation, Matt Bogard
Economics Faculty Publications
Recently the Justice department has started investigations into alleged anti-trust violations by Monsanto. This has helped fuel a lot of already hyped discontent with one of the world’s leaders in innovative solutions for sustainable agriculture. This article discusses how the regulatory environment could possibly have contributed to more concentration and power in the biotech industry. Increasing regulation would likely have the opposite effect of creating a level playing field in the agriculture industry.
