A Review Of The Different Methods For Assessing Standing Balance, Jacinta Browne, N. J. O'Hare
A Review Of The Different Methods For Assessing Standing Balance, Jacinta Browne, N. J. O'Hare
Articles
This paper is a review of the balance assessment methods currently used to evaluate standing balance. Most of the presently available instrumentation appears to be more suited to research laboratories than to routine clinical situations. Functional assessments of balance appear to be the quickest test to administer and do not require expensive equipment however only gross changes in balance can be detected making them suitable as a screening tool for identifying subject’s needing more thorough evaluation. Force platforms appear to be most suited balance assessment instrumentation to the clinical situation since it produces a real time display and can detect …
Transient Anomalous Diffusion In Poiseuille Flow, Marco Latini '01, Andrew J. Bernoff
Transient Anomalous Diffusion In Poiseuille Flow, Marco Latini '01, Andrew J. Bernoff
All HMC Faculty Publications and Research
We revisit the classical problem of dispersion of a point discharge of tracer in laminar pipe Poiseuille flow. For a discharge at the centre of the pipe we show that in the limit of small non-dimensional diffusion, D, tracer dispersion can be divided into three regimes. For small times (t [double less-than sign] D−1/3), diffusion dominates advection yielding a spherically symmetric Gaussian dispersion cloud. At large times (t [dbl greater-than sign] D−1), the flow is in the classical Taylor regime, for which the tracer is homogenized transversely across the pipe and diffuses with …

Two-Center Effect On Low-Energy Electron Emission In Collisions Of 1-Mev/U Bare Ions With Atomic Hydrogen, Molecular Hydrogen, And Helium. I. Atomic Hydrogen, Lokesh C. Tribedi, P. Richard, L. Gulya´S, M. Eugene Rudd, R. Moshammer
M. Eugene Rudd Publications
We have investigated ionization mechanisms in fast ion-atom collisions by measuring the low-energy electron emission cross sections in a pure three-body collision involving bare carbon ions (v=6.35 a.u.) colliding with atomic hydrogen targets. The measurements have also been extended to molecular hydrogen and helium targets. In this paper we provide the energy and angular distributions of double differential cross sections of low-energy electron emission for atomic hydrogen targets. The Slevin rf source with a high degree of dissociation was used to produce the atomic H target. It is found that the two-center effect has a major influence on …

Verification Of A Distortion In The Microstructure Of Gan Detected By Exafs Using Ab Initio Density Functional Theory Calculations, N. Dimakis, Grant Bunker, M. Katsikini, E. C. Paloura
Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications and Presentations
X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) measurements on a series of epitaxially grown GaN samples have shown a distortion in the microstructure of GaN. More specifically the central N atom is 4-fold coordinated but the four Ga atoms are not equidistant. It has been shown that 2.9 to 3.5 of them (depending on the growth conditions) are found in the expected from XRD distance of 1.94 A and the remaining are at a distance longer by approximately 15%. Second derivative calculation of the conformation energy using the Density Functional Theory (DFT) is used to investigate if the symmetric GaN cluster as …
Chemical Transferability Of Single- And Multiple-Scattering Exafs Debye-Waller Factors, N. Dimakis, Grant Bunker
Chemical Transferability Of Single- And Multiple-Scattering Exafs Debye-Waller Factors, N. Dimakis, Grant Bunker
Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications and Presentations
Single- and multiple-scattering EXAFS Debye-Waller factors are amplitude reduction parameters that appear in the EXAFS x(k) equation accounting for the structural and thermal disorder of a given sample. These parameters must be known accurately in order to obtain quantitative agreement between theory and experiment. Since experimental data can only support a limited number of fitted parameters these factors must be known from another source. Although various approaches have been considered in the past with a variety of results, the self-consistent ab initio Density functional theory stands for the most accurate and reliable method regardless of molecular symmetry or other specific …
Polymer Depletion Interaction Between Two Parallel Repulsive Walls, F. Schlesener, Andreas Hanke, R. Kimpel, S. Dietrich
Polymer Depletion Interaction Between Two Parallel Repulsive Walls, F. Schlesener, Andreas Hanke, R. Kimpel, S. Dietrich
Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications and Presentations
The depletion interaction between two parallel repulsive walls confining a dilute solution of long and flexible polymer chains is studied by field-theoretic methods. Special attention is paid to self-avoidance between chain monomers relevant for polymers in a good solvent. Our direct approach avoids the mapping of the actual polymer chains on effective hard or soft spheres. We compare our results with recent Monte Carlo simulations [A. Milchev and K. Binder, Eur. Phys. J. B 3, 477 (1998)] and with experimental results for the depletion interaction between a spherical colloidal particle and a planar wall in a dilute solution of nonionic …
Modified Critical Correlations Close To Modulated And Rough Surfaces, Andreas Hanke, Mehran Kardar
Modified Critical Correlations Close To Modulated And Rough Surfaces, Andreas Hanke, Mehran Kardar
Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications and Presentations
Correlation functions are sensitive to the presence of a boundary. Surface modulations give rise to modified near surface correlations, which can be measured by scattering probes. To determine these correlations, we develop a perturbative calculation in deformations in height from a flat surface. The results, combined with a renormalization group around four dimensions, are also used to predict critical behavior near a self-affine rough surface. We find that a large enough roughness exponent can modify surface critical behavior.

Apex Version 2.0: Latest Version Of The Cross-Platform Analysis Program For Exafs, N. Dimakis, Grant Bunker
Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications and Presentations
This report describes recent progress on APEX, a free, open source, cross platform set of EXAFS data analysis software. In a previous report we described APEX 1.0 (Dimakis, N. and Bunker, G., 1999), a free and open source code suite of basic X-Ray Absorption Fine Structure (XAFS) data analysis programs for classical data reduction and single scattering analysis. The first version of APEX was the only cross platform (linux/irix/windows/MacOS) EXAFS analysis program to our knowledge, but it lacked important features like multiple scattering fitting, generic format conversion from ASCII to University of Washington (UW) binary-type files, and user friendly interactive …
Measurement Of The Strange Sea Of The Proton, Gary A. Rutledge
Measurement Of The Strange Sea Of The Proton, Gary A. Rutledge
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
The differential cross section for elastic scattering of longitudinally-polarized electrons from protons exhibits a parity-violating asymmetry, due to the interference between weak and electromagnetic amplitudes. The asymmetry is extracted from the detector counting rates as APV = ( Dr - Dl)/(Dr + D l) where Drl are related to the right (left) differential cross sections sigmar, sigmal respectively. Thus APV = (sigmar - sigma l)/(sigmar + sigmal) for right-handed and left-handed electrons. This asymmetry is sensitive to the presence of strange sea quarks in the proton, in particular to the strange vector matrix elements GsE and GsM .;In an experiment …
Evolution Of Deep Centers In Gan Grown By Hydride Vapor Phase Epitaxy, Z-Q. Fang, David C. Look, J. Jasinski, M. Benamara, Z. Liliental-Weber, Richard J. Molnar
Evolution Of Deep Centers In Gan Grown By Hydride Vapor Phase Epitaxy, Z-Q. Fang, David C. Look, J. Jasinski, M. Benamara, Z. Liliental-Weber, Richard J. Molnar
Physics Faculty Publications
Deep centers and dislocation densities in undoped n GaN, grown by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE), were characterized as a function of the layer thickness by deep level transient spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy, respectively. As the layer thickness decreases, the variety and concentration of deep centers increase, in conjunction with the increase of dislocation density. Based on comparison with electron-irradiation induced centers, some dominant centers in HVPE GaN are identified as possible point defects.

Scintillation Behind The Collecting Lens Of A Receiver, Clarissa A. Fleming Russell
Scintillation Behind The Collecting Lens Of A Receiver, Clarissa A. Fleming Russell
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
One of the negative effects that a laser beam experiences as it propagates through the atmosphere is intensity fluctuations or scintillation. Because scintillation-- as it pertains to laser radar and laser satellite communication systems-- is the main subject of this research, the assumption of an optical element ( such as a Gaussian lens) along the propagation path in front of the detector is valid. The mathematical addition of optical elements to the propagation path is treated using the ABCD ray matrix method. The expression for scintillation is derived, analyzed, and numerically calculated for positions to the left and right of …
Development Of Non-Contact Scanning Force Microscopy For Imaging In Liquid Environments, Anthony Grant
Development Of Non-Contact Scanning Force Microscopy For Imaging In Liquid Environments, Anthony Grant
Theses
The aim of this work was to develop a non-contact mode scanning force microscope (SFM) for application to biological samples within liquid environments. Given that biological samples are particularly soft in their natural state and that a liquid is the most difficult operating environment for non-contact mode scanning force microscopy, the development of an instrument that is optimised to image biological samples in vitro presents significant challenges.
Firstly, the SFM tip to sample interaction has to be minimised either, in the worst case, to prevent the sample from being detached from its support or to maximise spatial resolution by minimising …

Axel Enders Publications
Single-crystal epitaxial MgO thin films were grown directly onto high-quality Fe single crystal and Fe whisker substrates and covered with Fe/Au layers. Reflection high-energy electron diffraction and low-energy electron diffraction patterns and scanning tunneling microscopy images showed that the growth of MgO proceeded pseudomorphically in a nearly layer-by-layer mode up to six monolayers. A misfit dislocation network is formed for MgO layers thicker than six monolayers. The thin MgO films were characterized electrically by scanning tunneling spectroscopy. The tunneling barrier in MgO was found to depend on the MgO layer thickness, starting from 2.5 eV at two monolayer thickness to …

Search For Electroweak Production Of Single Top Quarks In Pp̅ Collisions, B. Abbott
Gregory Snow Publications
We present a search for electroweak production of single top quarks in the electron+jets and muon+jets decay channels. The measurements use ≈90 pb-1 of data from Run 1 of the Fermilab Tevatron collider, collected at 1.8 TeV with the D Ø detector between 1992 and 1995. We use events that include a tagging muon, implying the presence of a b jet, to set an upper limit at the 95% confidence level on the cross section for the s-channel process pp̅→tb+X of 39 pb. The upper limit for the t-channel processpp̅→tqb+X …

The electronic and magnetic properties of the ABO3 type manganite's (A = rare earth, B = Mn) depend sensitively on the ratio of divalent and trivalent atoms on the A sublattice. The substitution of rare-earth by Ca or Sr not only affects the total valence, but also the lattice spacing, which, in turn may affect the structure and magnetic ordering temperature. If these compounds are synthesized with less than stoichiometric amounts of the A site constituents, (relative to the Mn content), three possible outcomes may be considered: a) single phase materials with vacancies on the A sublattice may be formed, …

A system is developed for tracking moving objects though natural scenery. A technique is presented for performing change detection on imagery to determine the difference between two images or a sequence of images. Form there an algorithm is presented to detect the presence of a new object and/or the deletion of objects. Then the application of a Variable Structure Interacting Multiple Model tracking filter is presented. The method of performing change detection is based upon the concept of image subspace projection. A set of basis image maps are formed when combined with a mixing matrix can recreate the original image. …
Magnetization And Heat Capacity Of R1/3sr2/3feo3-Δ (R = La And Pr), V. P.S. Awana, M. Karppinen, H. Yamauchi, S. K. Malik, William B. Yelon, Apurva Mehta, A. V. Narlikar

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
Results of magnetization and heat capacity (CP) measurements are presented for R1/3Sr2/3FeO3-δ compounds with R = La and Pr. The change in entropy (ΔS) near the magnetic transition amounts to only 15% of the theoretically expected value for the Fe3+ or Fe5+ spins magnetic ordering. The lower value of ΔS is explained on the basis of reported Mössbauer studies, which revealed a substantial amount of nonmagnetic Fe4+ in the compound across the magnetic transition. The CP peak height across the magnetic transition increases substantially after annealing the …
Deformation Studies Of Tungsten-Gold Contacts At The Nanometer Scale., Steven A. Smallwood
Deformation Studies Of Tungsten-Gold Contacts At The Nanometer Scale., Steven A. Smallwood
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The deformation behavior of atomically clean, nanometer sized tungsten / gold contacts was studied at room temperature in ultra-high vacuum. An instrument that combines atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), and field ion microscopy (FIM) into a single experimental apparatus was designed, constructed, and calibrated. A cross-hair force sensor having a spring constant of - 442 N/m was developed and its motion was monitored during indentation experiments with a differential interferometer. Tungsten tips of controlled size (12.8 nm < tip radius < 2 1.6 nm) were first shaped and characterized using FIM and then indented into a Au (1 10) single crystal to depths ranging from 1.5 nrn to 18 nm using the force sensor. Continuum mechanics models were found to be valid in predicting elastic deformation during initial contact and plastic zone depths despite our small size regime. Multiple discrete yielding events lasting < 1.5 ms were observed during the plastic deformation regime; at the yield points a maximum value for the principal shear stress was measured to be 5 + 1 GPa. During tip withdrawal, "pop-out" events relating to material relaxation within the contact were observed. Adhesion between the tip and sample led to experimental signatures that suggest neck formation prior to the break of contact. STM images of indentation holes revealed various shapes that can be attributed to the (1 1 1 ) (1 10) crystallographic slip system in gold. FIM images of the tip after indentation showed no evidence of tip damage

A systematic study of the magnetic moments and hyperfine interactions of the LaNi5-xFex compounds was performed using the spin-polarized tight-binding-linear-muffin-tin-orbital methods (TBLMTO). The calculated results were compared with neutron diffraction and Mössbauer experimental data and found to be in good agreement. Fe atoms exhibit more localized magnetic moments in LaNi5-xFex when the Fe content x is lower than 1.0. The calculated magnetic moments of the Fe atoms approach values as large as 2.5μB due to the dilution effect. The strong s-d hybridization between the Ni and La atoms and the neighboring Fe in …

Order-Disorder Phase Transitions In Kno2 , Csno2, And Tlno2 Crystals: A Molecular Dynamics Study, Chun-Gang Duan, Wai-Ning Mei, Robert W. Smith, Jianjun Liu, M. M. Ossowski, John R. Hardy
Physics Faculty Publications
The order-disorder phase transitions of KNO2 , CsNO2, and TlNO2 have been studied using parameter-free molecular dynamics simulation. It is found that the phase transitions in nitrites investigated are driven by the rotations of the NO2 2 ions about different axes together with displacements of cations and anions. We successfully reproduce the high-temperature phases of these nitrites, i.e., the NaCl-like structure for KNO2 and CsCl-like structure for Cs(Tl)NO2. Based on the investigation of the radial distribution function of the cations and anions, we explain why KNO2 and Cs(Tl)NO2 form quite different low-temperature phases.

Computerized glow curve deconvolution method is used to determine the number of peaks, the order of kinetics b, the activation energy E_a,frequency factor s and number of the trapped electrons n_0 associated with the glow peaks in single crystal of CaF_2:Dy (TLD-200). Glow curve analysis indicate that the glow curve in the temperature region between room temperature and 250 ^oC can be best described as a superposition of six peaks. First five peaks are described by first-order kinetics and sixth peak general-order kinetic. The number of trapped electrons, activation energies and frequency factor for individual glow peaks are as follows: …

Formation employeed screen printing method. Films were subjected two step annealing at temperatures above 850^oC and 880^\oC for the formation of the crystal structure and to attain superconducting properties. X-ray diffraction patterns and R-T measurements showed coexistence of the (2212) and (2223) phases for most of the films. Metallic behaviour in resistance and 110 K onset temperature were observed for good quality films with a completed superconducting transition between 78-103 K. Critical current densities were found …
Is There An Age Of The Universe Problem After The Hipparcos Data?, Murat Özer
Is There An Age Of The Universe Problem After The Hipparcos Data?, Murat Özer
Turkish Journal of Physics
We have reanalyzed the age of the universe problem under the assumption that the lower limit on the age of the globular clusters is \sim11 Gyr, as predicted by the recent Hipparcos data. We find that the globular cluster and the expansion ages in a standard \lambda=0 universe are consistent only if the present value H_0 of the Hubble constant is \leq 60{\rm kms}^{-1}Mpc^{-1}. If H_0>60{\rm kms}^{-1}Mpc^{-1} some kind of modification of the standard \lambda=0 model is required. Invoking a (time-independent) cosmological term \lambda in the Einstein field equations, as has been done frequently before, we have found that …

A problem common to automated assembly in manufacturing or in automated docking of spacecraft is angular and lateral alignment of components. A hybrid video system utilizing both conventional imaging and 3-D video moiré has been developed to automatically align a test target with three translational and two rotational degrees of freedom. Alignment was demonstrated via computer controlled translation and rotation stages. The video moiré system is operated in an error map mode, in which a structurally illuminated reference surface is used to chromakey the image of an identical structurally illuminated alignment target. The output is a moiré image generated by …

Above‐Threshold Ionization As A Probe Of Multielectron Physics, L. D. Van Woerkom, M. J. Nando, M. A. Walker, G. D. Gillen, H. G. Muller
Physics
The study of above-threshold ionization (ATI) is now over 20 years old and much has been learned about the interaction of a single atomic electron with intense laser fields. The development of stable, high repetition rate ultrashort pulse laser systems has allowed experiments to probe intricate details of the ionization process using photoelectron and photoion spectroscopies. To date the overwhelming majority of data show that intense laser fields interact with only a single electron at a time to produce the well known features in electron kinetic energy spectra. We will present an overview of state-of-the-art experiments in ATI and show …

Path Integral Treatment For Spinless Relativistic Equation In The Two Component Theory, M. Merad, T. Boudjedaa, Lyazid Chetouani
Turkish Journal of Physics
In this paper we have set up a path integral formalism for Feshbach-Villars equation by using the fermionic Schwinger model for Pauli matrices which describe an isocharge symmetry. This choice is made in analogy with spin model and the coherent state representation is then used. We have also given a general method of treating the problem of vanishing scalar potential by reducing it the to non-relativistic case and then, via Foldy-Wouthuysen canonical transformation, an explicit solution is constructed. The free case and constant magnetic field interaction are explicitly exposed. In each cases the propagators are evaluated and the energy spectrum …
