The chemical and petrographic characteristics of five complete samples of the Croweburg coal recovered from this drilling project are major contributions of this study. Detailed lithologic logs of the drill cores are an additional contribution of the investigation. Megascopic lithotypes of vitrain, fusain, clarain, and durain as well as areas of mineral matter are described from polished column samples of the Croweburg coal for the first time in Missouri. Measured Croweburg coal sections from five drill …
Dolomitized Pahasapa Limestone (Mississippian), Northeastern Sector Of The Black Hills, South Dakota, Petrography And Geological Setting, Abdullatif Najjar
Dolomitized Pahasapa Limestone (Mississippian), Northeastern Sector Of The Black Hills, South Dakota, Petrography And Geological Setting, Abdullatif Najjar
Masters Theses
"The carbonates of the Mississippian Pahasapa Limestone in the northeastern sector of the Black Hills outcrops were examined in order to ascertain specific characters of the lithology in this area where the formation is predominantly a dolomite in contrast to adjacent areas where it is mainly a limestone. The Pahasapa seems to be uniform in thickness at the study areas and maintains a thickness of about 550 feet. Because of poor exposures, usually at the base or top, complete sections could not be measured. Much of the Pahasapa consists of coarsely crystalline dolomite containing varying proportions of crinoid plates, gastropods, …
Fossil Otoliths Of Some Lower Cenozoic Perciform Fishes Of The Gulf Coast, Mostafa Juma Salem
Fossil Otoliths Of Some Lower Cenozoic Perciform Fishes Of The Gulf Coast, Mostafa Juma Salem
Masters Theses
"Nineteen perciform species from the lower Cenozoic and one Recent species are described, and included under eight genera. The main characters that were considered as generic are the outline of the sagitta and the structure of the sulcus. The other features of the otolith were regarded as secondary in importance. The characters that were believed to be valuable at specific level are almost the same as those for the genus but in more detail. These species are considered to be within the Suborder Percoidei. The fossil species of "Nemipterus" were put in the Family Nemipteridae as they resembled the Recent …
The Oxidative Decarboxylation Of Aminopolycarboxylic Acids With Cerium (Iv) In Sulfuric Acid, Rita Kathleen Hessley
The Oxidative Decarboxylation Of Aminopolycarboxylic Acids With Cerium (Iv) In Sulfuric Acid, Rita Kathleen Hessley
Masters Theses
"The rates of oxidation of four chelating agents, NTA, EDTA CDTA, and DTPA with Ce(IV), in sulfuric acid media, were determined spectrophotometrically by a stopped-flow technique. The reductive ability is in the order CDTA>EDTA>DTPA>NTA. The influence of varying the acidity of the medium was studied, and in each case a maximum in the rate constant [H +] plot was observed. A possible interpretation of the reactivities and the influence of acidity is advanced"--Summary, page 1.
Surface Plasmon-Longitudinal Optical Phonon Contribution To The Reflectivity Of N-Type Insb, William Eugene Anderson
Surface Plasmon-Longitudinal Optical Phonon Contribution To The Reflectivity Of N-Type Insb, William Eugene Anderson
Doctoral Dissertations
"The reflectivity of n-type InSb has been measured in the far infrared. The doping of the samples was such that the free-carrier plasma frequency was near the longitudinal optical phonon frequency. The results suggest that samples with a sufficiently thick damage layer show effects due to surface plasmons. The results also indicate that the surface plasma excitations are coupled to the phonons. A simple model of this coupling is presented which agrees qualitatively with the observed reflectivity. A somewhat more rigorous theory of the coupling is also presented"--Abstract, page ii.
Theory Of Nucleation Of Water Properties Of Some Clathrate Like Cluster Structures, Mehdi Daee
Theory Of Nucleation Of Water Properties Of Some Clathrate Like Cluster Structures, Mehdi Daee
Doctoral Dissertations
"The tranquility of classical homogeneous nucleation theory has been disturbed by the introduction of statistical mechanical correction factors to a basically thermodynamic theory. These factors, which appear to be essential, destroy much of the agreement with experiment in the case of water vapor. A molecular model for the pre-nucleation water clusters is proposed with a view toward resolving some of these difficulties. As a first step, the Properties of a few specific cluster configurations have been examined. Clathrate-like structures containing 16 to 57 water molecules are discussed. The hydrogen bonds were treated as simple harmonic oscillators for the purpose of …
Homogeneous Nucleation Of Water Vapor In Inert Gas Atmospheres, Arthur Henry Biermann
Homogeneous Nucleation Of Water Vapor In Inert Gas Atmospheres, Arthur Henry Biermann
Doctoral Dissertations
"The homogeneous nucleation of water vapor in atmospheres of helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon was studied using an expansion type cloud chamber. A strong dependence of the nucleation rate on the particular inert carrier gas was observed. At present the only dependence upon the nature of the carrier gas included in classical nucleation theories is a small factor arising from kinetic considerations which is in the wrong direction to explain the observations. To explain the dependence of the rate on the nature of the carrier gas, a molecular cluster model is assumed allowing inert gas atoms to occupy the …
Absolute Cross Sections For Excitation Of Neon By Impact Of 20-180 Kev H , H₂ And He Ions, George William York
Absolute Cross Sections For Excitation Of Neon By Impact Of 20-180 Kev H , H₂ And He Ions, George William York
Doctoral Dissertations
"The technique of heavy-ion energy-loss spectrometry has been used to measure excitation cross sections for the (2p⁵)3s and (2p⁵)3p electronic configurations of Neon. The incident particles used were H⁺ , H⁺₂ and He⁺ at impact energies from 20-180 keV. The results are compared with previous optical measurements of the emission cross sections of lines from these levels as excited by H⁺ and He⁺ impact. Agreement is not good, either in shape or in absolute magnitude for excitation of the (2p⁵)3s configuration. However, agreement is surprisingly good for excitation of the (2p⁵)3p configuration. A curve fitting technique has been applied to …
Distribution Of Trace Elements In Olivines And Proxenes - An Experimental Study, Melvin Leroy Bird
Distribution Of Trace Elements In Olivines And Proxenes - An Experimental Study, Melvin Leroy Bird
Doctoral Dissertations
"Olivine, pyroxene,and spinel were crystallized in the ternary system anorthite-forsterite-silica to which trace amounts of the transition metal ions Cr³⁺, Fe²⁺, Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Cu²⁺ had been added. The resulting concentrations of the transition metal ions in the liquid and crystalline phases were determined using the electron microprobe. The results, given as free energies and partition functions, indicate the order of substitution of the dipositive ions in all crystals to be Ni²⁺, Co²⁺, Mn²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Fe²⁺ according to the predictions of crystal field theory. The ion Cr³⁺ substituted in greater or lesser quantities depending on the crystalline phase. …
Some Statistical Inferences For The Bivariate Exponential Distribution, Bruce Mohr Bemis
Some Statistical Inferences For The Bivariate Exponential Distribution, Bruce Mohr Bemis
Doctoral Dissertations
"The bivariate exponential distribution is neither absolutely continuous nor discrete due to the property that there is a positive probability that the two random variables may be equal. Basic properties of the distribution are presented as well as methods of parameter estimation including maximum likelihood. The distribution is shown to satisfy the usual regularity conditions in spite of its possession of a singularity. The maximum likelihood estimates are asymptotically efficient. Two other methods of estimation are compared with the maximum likelihood method in terms of efficiency. Tests of the hypothesis that two random variables each have independent exponential distributions versus …

All formations exposed in the area are …
Integrability Of The Sums Of The Trigonometric Series 1/2 Aₒ + ∞ [Over] Σ [Over] N=1 AN Cos Nθ And ∞ [Over] Σ [Over] N=1 AN Sin Nθ, John William Garrett
Integrability Of The Sums Of The Trigonometric Series 1/2 Aₒ + ∞ [Over] Σ [Over] N=1 AN Cos Nθ And ∞ [Over] Σ [Over] N=1 AN Sin Nθ, John William Garrett
Masters Theses
"The trigonometric series C = 1/2 aₒ + ∞ [over] Σ [over] [n=1] a[subscript n] cos nΘ and S = ∞ [over] Σ [over] n=1 a[subscript n] sin nΘ, where {a[subscript n]} monotonically decreases to zero both converge almost everywhere to functions f and g respectively. f (or g) is L iff C (or S) is the Fourier series of f (or g) iff term-by-term integration of C (or S) is valid. There are three equivalent conditions, each of which implies that C is the Fourier series of f...."--Abstract, page ii.
Hydrothermal Alteration Of Ash-Flow Tuffs In The Indian Peak District Of Southwestern Utah, Michael Allan Tolley
Hydrothermal Alteration Of Ash-Flow Tuffs In The Indian Peak District Of Southwestern Utah, Michael Allan Tolley
Masters Theses
"Careful petrographic study of the ash-flow tuffs in the Indian Peak District of southwestern Utah reveals hydrothermal alteration around the fluorite veins. The alteration minerals themselves and the intensity of alteration vary with distance from the veins. Primary plagioclase has altered to secondary feldspar, calcite, sericite, and traces of epidote and zoisite. Hornblende and biotite have altered to chlorite, calcite, and secondary iron oxide, and traces of epidote and zoisite. Diopside has changed to calcite and secondary iron oxide. An overall picture of the mining district shows that certain minerals increase and others decrease as one nears the veins. Hydrothermal …

Doppler Shift In Frequency In The Transport Of Electromagnetic Waves Through An Underdense Plasma, Jerry Peacher, Kenneth M. Watson
Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
In an earlier publication, the validity of the radiation transport theory was studied for the calculation of multiple scattering of electromagnetic waves by a turbulent plasma. In the present paper, we extend the transport theory to include a description of the Doppler shift in frequency caused by electron motion.
Differential Cross Section For Charged A₁ Photoproduction Using The Regge Exchange Formalism, Keiji Kikkawa, Barbara N. Hale
Differential Cross Section For Charged A₁ Photoproduction Using The Regge Exchange Formalism, Keiji Kikkawa, Barbara N. Hale
Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
The Regge-pole formalism is applied to the calculation of the differential cross section for A1+ photo-production in the region |tmin| < -t < 10µ2. The p, A1, A1-daughter, A2, and π trajectory contributions are considered, and use is made of chiral dynamics to estimate the unknown coupling constants. We find that the π and the A2 trajectories provide the dominant contributions.
Investigation Into The Monotonic Magnetostriction And Magnetic Breakdown In Cadmium, James Milo Carter
Investigation Into The Monotonic Magnetostriction And Magnetic Breakdown In Cadmium, James Milo Carter
Doctoral Dissertations
"Observations of the monotonic magnetostriction of cadmium at 4.2 K and in fields of 65 kilogauss have been made. The angular dependence of an extremal point (Hm) in the monotonic magnetostriction is found to follow inverse cosine behavior. The magnitude of Hm (27 kG) for fields parallel to [0001] is in fair agreement with the onset of γ1/3 from the breakdown of the trifoliate orbit, γ. The range of observation of hm coincides with the reported range of the trifoliate orbit. A "klink" in the monotonic magnetostriction is demonstrated. The "klink" field, Hk, …

Absolute Excitation Cross Sections Of He⁺ In 20-100 Kev He⁺-He Collisions Using Energy-Loss Spectrometry, Donald Roy Schoonover
Doctoral Dissertations
"Application of positive-ion energy-loss spectrometry has been extended to include experimental determination of absolute excitation cross sections of ground state helium ions. Helium ion-atom collisions were studied for impact energies ranging between 20-100 keV, in 10 keV intervals. The data were taken with an apparatus resolution between 0.6-o.8 eV FWHM. Cross sections for transitions from ground state to the second and third principal quantum levels of the ion plotted as a function of impact energy were still rapidly increasing at 100 keV. The cross sections at this energy were 1.64(± 0.28) x 10⁻¹⁸cm² for He⁺(l²s1/2) -> He⁺(n = …
The Possible Correlation Of Carcinogenic Activity With Electronic Structure Of Benz(A)Anthracene, Patricia Joan Blair
The Possible Correlation Of Carcinogenic Activity With Electronic Structure Of Benz(A)Anthracene, Patricia Joan Blair
Masters Theses
"The electronic structure of benz(a)anthracene based on the sigma and pi electrons was predicted by the modified intermediate neglect of differential overlap (MINDO) molecular orbital method and compared with the pi electronic structure determined by the Pople method. The crystalline molecular structure was used for both methods. The Pople calculation was also done on the aromatic molecular structure and a combination structure which assumed the bond lengths of the crystal structure and the bond angles of the aromatic structure. Chemical properties predicted by the MINDO and POPLE electronic structures were compared; the MINDO results provided the best agreement with experimental …
Mass Spectrometric Study Of "Anomalous" Water, Bernard Jean Bouy
Mass Spectrometric Study Of "Anomalous" Water, Bernard Jean Bouy
Masters Theses
"Considerable interest has developed recently in a material called "polywater" or "anomalous water". This material has properties quite different from those normally associated with liquid water. The purpose of this study is to give some mass spectrometric observations of "polywater". The "polywater" samples were produced within silica capillaries. These capillaries were heated by means of a helical coil to vaporize the "polywater". The vapor was directed into the source of a mass spectrometer. The results of this study show that a significant portion of the "anomalous water" samples is composed of a polymer of dimethylsiloxane. To date, the observations are …

Radiative Lifetime Of The A¹Π State And The Transition Moment Variation Of The Fourth Positive Band System Of Carbon Monoxide, Joseph George Chervenak
Radiative Lifetime Of The A¹Π State And The Transition Moment Variation Of The Fourth Positive Band System Of Carbon Monoxide, Joseph George Chervenak
Doctoral Dissertations
"The lifetime of the A¹π state of carbon monoxide has been measured using a pulsed invertron excitation source and delayed coincidence measurement technique on the fourth positive system. Eighteen bands, originating from the upper states v' = 0 to 5, were examined at pressures between 500 and 50 microns, with no pressure dependence noted. The data were corrected for photon "pile up" and least-squares fitted to the sum of two exponentials. The transition moment was found to vary and was expanded about the r-centroid of the v' = 0 to v" = 0 transition. Oscillator strengths are calculated and compared …

"Seventy-five samples of well cuttings and cores from the Iraq Petroleum Company Butmah Well No. 9, Ain Zalah Well No. 16 and Ain Zalah Well No. 17, in northwestern Iraq at approximately 36° 37' north latitude and 42° 41' east longitude, have been examined in detail. The lithologic descriptive term "marl" is replaced by calcareous shale or argillaceous limestone, and the term "globigerinal limestone" is not considered applicable. The foraminiferal fauna from the upper part of the Shiranish Formation prove to be of Maestrichtian age. The Mesozoic-Cenozoic boundary is recognized on the basis of "smaller foraminiferal" faunal assemblages; it is …
Discrimination Of Signal And Noise Events On Seismic Recordings By Linear Threshold Estimation Theory, David Nuse Peacock
Discrimination Of Signal And Noise Events On Seismic Recordings By Linear Threshold Estimation Theory, David Nuse Peacock
Doctoral Dissertations
"The object of this study is the investigation of a linear threshold element technique for identifying surface multiples on a single seismic trace. Traces of seismic events were generated which contained primaries, surface multiples, and various levels of Gaussian random noise. Since it was necessary to separate the events as much as possible, the traces were subjected to pulse-compression deconvolution processing prior to LTE analysis. Mean frequency, peak frequency, amplitude spectrum variance, periodicity, and polarity were employed as pattern parameters. A set of weights was found that would maximize the moment of inertia of the S line distribution of the …

Cross Section For Excitation Of The Fourth Positive Band System In Carbon Monoxide By 20-120 Kev Protons, John T. Park, D. R. Schoonover, George W. York
Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
Excitation cross sections for the fourth positive band system in carbon monoxide have been determined from studies of the energy-loss spectra of 20-120-keV protons incident on gaseous CO targets. The energy-loss spectra had an energy resolution of about 2 eV. Prominent peaks in the spectra were observed at 8.5 and 13.8 eV. The first peak is believed to be due to excitation of the fourth positive band system of CO (X+1A 1, while the 13.8-eV peak covers a number of possible states, including the B+2 and the C+1 states. Changes in the slope of the ionization continuum were noted at …
Theory Of Droplet Growth In Clouds. I. The Transient Stage Of The Boundary-Coupled Simultaneous Heat And Mass Transport In Cloud Formation, John C. Carstens, Joseph T. Zung
Theory Of Droplet Growth In Clouds. I. The Transient Stage Of The Boundary-Coupled Simultaneous Heat And Mass Transport In Cloud Formation, John C. Carstens, Joseph T. Zung
Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
Two solutions to the system of equations describing the simultaneous heat and mass transport involved in the condensational growth of a droplet in a supersaturated atmosphere are presented. The first, valid for very short times, describes the transient stage of such growth; the second, valid for longer times, presupposes the establishment of a steady-state condition. The two are shown to be complementary for the cases examined. The equations examined satisfy the usual boundary conditions imposed on a drop in a concentric sphere as required by the cellular model for cloud formation. Hence our results can be immediately extended to the …
Thermochemical Hydrogen-Deuterium Isotope Effects, Wayne C. Duer
Thermochemical Hydrogen-Deuterium Isotope Effects, Wayne C. Duer
Doctoral Dissertations
"The heats of solution at 25.0 ± 0. 1°C for each member of hydrogen-deuterium isotopic pairs (chloroform/chloroform-d, acetone/acetone-d₆, methanol/methanol-d₁, ethanol/ethanol-d₁, and water/heavy water) have been determined as a function of molality in a variety of solvents. The heats for most of the systems could be described as a linear function of average molality with an average deviation in fit of less than one per cent. Using these linear equations, heats of solution at infinite dilution were obtained by extrapolation to zero molality. The heats of solution at infinite dilution of the hydrogen containing compounds were subtracted from those of the …
Extension Of Some Theorems Of Complex Functional Analysis To Linear Spaces Over The Quaternions And Cayley Numbers, James E. Jamison
Extension Of Some Theorems Of Complex Functional Analysis To Linear Spaces Over The Quaternions And Cayley Numbers, James E. Jamison
Doctoral Dissertations
"In this work certain aspects of Functional Analysis are considered in the setting of linear spaces over the division rings of the real Quaternions and the real Cayley algebra. The basic structure of Banach spaces over these division rings and the rings of bounded operators on these spaces is developed. Examples of finite and infinite dimensional spaces over these division rings are given. Questions concerning linear functionals, the Hahn-Banach Theorem and Reflexivity are considered. The Stone-Weierstrass Theorem is proven for functions with values in a real Cayley Dickson algebra of dimension n. The concepts of inner product spaces and Hilbert …

"The Lund Ash-flow Tuff is the uppermost member of the Needles Range Formation, located in southwestern Utah and eastern Nevada. This member can be correlated over an area of several thousand square miles. A detailed study of petrographic and physical features of the Lund show vertical and lateral variations in mineral content and welding intensity. Vertical differences are related to changes in the magma chamber during the Lund eruption interval. Several different ash-flows make up the Lund member. All mineral concentrations vary laterally, with concentration decreasing away from the center of the Lund field. Vertical and lateral variations in physical …
