Effect Of Counter Ion Concentration Added With Mixture Of Water And Ethylene Glycol On Krafft Temperature Of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate, Sateesh Krishna Chand Chundru
Effect Of Counter Ion Concentration Added With Mixture Of Water And Ethylene Glycol On Krafft Temperature Of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate, Sateesh Krishna Chand Chundru
Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations
Surfactants are amphiphilic organic compounds having both hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups. Surfactants in solution form aggregates known as micelles. The minimum temperature at which surfactants forms micelles is known as Krafft temperature. The Krafft temperature of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was measured at various counter ion concentrations in two solvent systems, water and 10% ethylene glycol. The Krafft temperature of sodium dodecyl sulfate increased in both water and 10% ethylene glycol with increasing counter ion concentration. The Krafft temperature of sodium dodecyl sulfate in 10% ethylene glycol was higher than the Krafft temperature of sodium dodecyl sulfate in water, at …

The conversion of farmland near cities to other human uses is a global trend that challenges our long-term capacity to provide food, fiber, and ecosystem services to a growing world population. If current trends continue in the United States, the population will reach 450 million by the year 2050. At the same time, an accelerating change in land use will reduce today’s two acres per person of farmland to less than one acre per person. This is scarcely enough to produce food for our domestic population, without any food available for export – even assuming advances in technology. We need …
Characterization Of A Black Coating Overlying Rock Paintings Found In Little Lost River Cave, Idaho Using Thm-Gc-Ms, Jamie Brown-Sinha
Characterization Of A Black Coating Overlying Rock Paintings Found In Little Lost River Cave, Idaho Using Thm-Gc-Ms, Jamie Brown-Sinha
Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations
A black coating overlies rock paintings found within Little Lost Rive Cave, Idaho. A calibrated radiocarbon date of 1390-1040 B.C. was obtained by Steelman et al.1 However, this relies on the assumption that the black coating was formed by some human activity. For further characterization and to verify that the coating is anthropogenic, THM-GC-MS was performed on various samples collected throughout the cave, including soil samples from inside, outside, and above the cave. Humic and fulvic acids, synthetic and natural melanin, and experimentally created cooking residues were also analyzed as standard materials. By comparing the resulting chromatograms and the compounds …

Rna:Dna As An Indicator Of Nutritional Condition And Growth In Larval Naked Goby, Gobiosoma Bosc, Michelle C. Satterwhite
LSU Master's Theses
Developing organism-based metrics for assessing habitat quality is an important tool in conservation and restoration of aquatic habitats. The use of the RNA:DNA ratio as an early indicator of habitat effects on growth of nekton species has been suggested, but requires species-specific laboratory assessment prior to field application. We used food availability in laboratory treatments to simulate differences in habitat quality. Wild Gobiosoma bosc eggs were collected using nest-traps constructed of PVC pipe. Eggs from several different nests collected in the field were hatched in the lab, yielding larvae that were randomly assigned to three feeding treatments in two replicate …
Ecosystem Effects Of Expanding Populations Of Avicennia Germinans In A Southeastern Louisiana Spartina Alterniflora Saltmarsh, Carey Lynn Perry
Ecosystem Effects Of Expanding Populations Of Avicennia Germinans In A Southeastern Louisiana Spartina Alterniflora Saltmarsh, Carey Lynn Perry
LSU Master's Theses
Although the Earth may be in the early stages of the projected trends of global warming, several ecological responses to recent warming are already evident. The timing of seasonal activities of plants and animals has begun to shift, and the advancement of species poleward is occurring in several regions of the world. One unique distributional shift is the movement of Avicennia germinans (black mangrove) northward into temperate salt marshes dominated by the marsh grass, Spartina alterniflora. In Louisiana, black mangroves were historically restricted to the southernmost barrier islands and beaches; however, in recent years a noticeable expansion of Avicennia northward …
Empirical Modeling Of Late Quaternary Sediment Supply To The Gulf Of Mexico Shelf Margin In A Cool Lowstand World, Jill Hattier Womack
Empirical Modeling Of Late Quaternary Sediment Supply To The Gulf Of Mexico Shelf Margin In A Cool Lowstand World, Jill Hattier Womack
LSU Master's Theses
During the last glacial period, river systems responded to the lowering of sea level by incising valleys, extending across the continental shelf, and depositing deltas on the shelf margin and upper slope of surrounding basins. These deltas represent important repositories for sediment delivered to the coastal ocean and provide partial records of sediment discharged from continental landmasses. Over relatively short time scales, like that of the last glacial-interglacial cycle, hinterland drainage areas, relief and lithology can be considered constants while the primary variable of significance is climate change (Syvitski and Milliman, 2007). It is reasonable to assume, therefore, that supply …

Investigation Of The Catalytic And Structural Roles Of Conserved Histidines Of Human Coproporphyrinogen Oxidase Using Site-Directed Mutagenesis, Shani J. Gitter, Christopher L. Cooper, Jon A. Frieson, Timothy D. Lash, Marjorie A. Jones
Faculty Publications – Chemistry
Background: The catalytic contribution of four conserved histidines of human coproporphyrinogen oxidase (CPO) has been investigated using site-directed mutagenesis to change histidine (H) into alanine (A). Material/Methods: The wild-type and mutant enzyme forms were analyzed for their ability to utilize coproporphyrinogen-III, mesoporphvrinogen-VI, and harderoporphyrinogen as substrates. Results: Wild-type CPO had specific activities of 4.9 +/- 0.9 nmole product/min/mg for coproporphyrinogen-III, 1.7 +/- 0.7 nmole ptoduct/min/mg for mesoporphyrinogen-VI, and 5.1 +/- 1.8 nmole product/min/mg for harderoporphyrinogen. The four mutant enzymes were catalytically competent With all three substrates, but to varying degrees. The most affected Mutant was the H158A enzyme which exhibited …

Generic Subideals Of Graph Ideals And Free Resolutions, Leah Gold
Generic Subideals Of Graph Ideals And Free Resolutions, Leah Gold
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
For a graph of an n-cycle Δ with Alexander dual Δ∗, we study the free resolution of a subideal G (n) of the Stanley-Reisner ideal IΔ∗. We prove that if G(n) is generated by 3 generic elements of IΔ∗, then the second syzygy module of G(n) is isomorphic to the second syzygy module of (x1,x2,... ,x n). A result of Bruns shows that there is always a 3-generated ideal with this property. We show that it can be chosen to have a particularly nice form.

Communication among managers, the public, and scientists is the key to successful ecosystem management; however, the varied perspectives and interests of these groups can make such communication difficult. One way to achieve effective communication is to develop a common knowledge base by combining syntheses of key scientific results with information-rich visual elements. Within a management landscape, integrated environmental assessments provide a useful framework for evaluating resources and directing management efforts. The integrated assessment process involves (1) initial investigation, (2) development of a conceptual framework, (3) data navigation, (4) environmental report cards, and (5) science communication. Each step requires the synthesis …

Connecting Polygonizations Via Stretches And Twangs, Mirela Damian, Robin Flatland, Joseph O'Rourke, Suneeta Ramswami
Computer Science: Faculty Publications
We show that the space of polygonizations of a fixed planar point set S of n points is connected by O(n2 ) “moves” between simple polygons. Each move is composed of a sequence of atomic moves called “stretches” and "twangs". These atomic moves walk between weakly simple "polygonal wraps" of S. These moves show promise to serve as a basis for generating random polygons.
Agricultural Climatology, Kenneth G. Hubbard
Agricultural Climatology, Kenneth G. Hubbard
High Plains Regional Climate Center: Personnel Publications
With the diversification of the U.S. economy over the past century, agriculture has changed. We can say the farm sizes have increased over time, the number of farmers and those employed in farming have decreased over time, and as the economy has grown the relative contribution of agriculture to the total economy has decreased due to growth in other sectors. The farm prices have not changed significantly over many years while costs for energy, machinery, and land have generally increased. The combination of these factors has generally narrowed the profit margin and the highest productivity will no longer ensure the …

Assessing Understanding Of Multiplication Through Words, Pictures, And Numbers, Stephanie Z. Smith
Proceedings of the Annual Meeting of the Georgia Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators
The objective of this session is to engage mathematics teacher educators in a discussion of how to assess an understanding of the concept of multiplication as an operation and its relationships to other operations. The session will begin with a presentation of a previously published study assessing children’s understanding of multiplication as grouping and the relationship between multiplication and addition. The assessment asked a series of problems involving words, pictures, and numbers. The results of the study indicate that the types of problems asked were successful in providing evidence of children’s understanding of multiplication. The study also found that a …

Change And Relationships In Elementary Preservice Teachers’ Mathematics Pedagogical Beliefs, Teaching Efficacy Beliefs, And Content Knowledge, Susan L. Swars, Lynn C. Hart , Ed., Stephanie Z. Smith, Marvin E. Smith
Proceedings of the Annual Meeting of the Georgia Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators
This study investigated the mathematics beliefs and content knowledge of 103 elementary preservice teachers in a developmental teacher preparation program that included a two course mathematics methods sequence. Preservice teachers’ pedagogical beliefs became more cognitively-oriented during the teacher preparation program with these changes occurring during the two methods courses. Pedagogical beliefs remained stable during student teaching. The preservice teachers also significantly increased their personal efficacy for teaching mathematics throughout the program with these shifts occurring across both methods courses and into student teaching. Pedagogical beliefs and teaching efficacy beliefs were not related at the beginning of the program, but, in …

We report the first measurements of inclusive W and Z boson cross-sections
times the corresponding leptonic branching ratios for pp collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV based on the decays of the W and Z bosons into electrons and muons. The data were recorded with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 72.0 ± 4.3 pb−1. We test e-μ lepton universality in W decays by measuring the ratio of the W → μν to W → eν cross sections and determine a value of 0.991 ±0.004(stat.) ± 0.011(syst.) for …

Magnesium diboride (MgB2) has a transition temperature (Tc) of ~40 K, i.e., about 4 times as high as that of niobium (Nb).We have been evaluating MgB2 as a candidate material for radio-frequency (RF) cavities for future particle accelerators. Studies in the last 3 years have shown that it could have about one order of magnitude less RF surface resistance (Rs) than Nb at 4 K. A power dependence test using a 6 GHz TE011 mode cavity has shown little power dependence up to ~12 mT (120 Oe), limited by available power, compared …

Time-resolved magneto-optical studies are performed on MgB2 thin film samples grown by in situ pulsed laser deposition and in situ reactive deposition technique. The latter reveal dendritic avalanche-free flux penetration. The kinetic roughening of magnetic flux penetration is studied for applied ac current. Dynamic scaling laws determined for both static field and ac current are consistent with the directed percolation depinning model, placing the vortex dynamics in MgB2 in the same universality class as YBCO and Nb.

The effect of LiBH4 on the hydrogen sorption performance of magnesium was investigated. It was found that the hydrogen storage properties of LiBH4/Mg mixtures exhibit a dramatic improvement as compared to plain magnesium powder. For example, at 250°C, a LiBH4/Mg (mass ratio 1:4) composite can absorb 6.7 wt % hydrogen in 60 min, while only less than 1 wt % hydrogen was absorbed by pure magnesium in the same period under similar conditions. The hydrogen desorption properties of the composite at 350°C were also improved significantly as compared to the plain …

Room Temperature Magnetic-Field Manipulation Of Electrical Polarization In Multiferroic Thin Film Composite Bifeo3/La2/3ca1/3mno3, Zhenxiang Cheng, Xiaolin Wang
Australian Institute for Innovative Materials - Papers
The electrical polarization in an epitaxially BiFeO3 film grown on La2/3Ca1/3MnO3/SrTiO3 is observed to be enhanced greatly by a magnetic field at room temperature. The simultaneous ferromagnetic order and ferroelectric polarization shown by the BiFeO3 film causes the strong coupling of the magnetic and ferroelectric domains in the BiFeO3 films. It was proposed that the activation energy for the electrical polarization domains switching is reduced by the application of a magnetic field. As a result, the electrical polarization that can be switched by an electrical field is increased by the …

Large single crystals of α-NaxCoO2 (x=0.91, 0.92, and 0.93) have been successfully fabricated by using the traveling solvent floating zone method. Details on the crystal growth are discussed. The crystal structures were characterized using powder x-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement. The magnetic susceptibility measurements show that the magnetic properties depend strongly on x. The compound was found to be antiferromagnetic at TN ≈ 20 K for x=0.91 and x=0.92, and paramagnetic for x=0.93. The in-plane and out-of-plane anisotropies were observed for the x=0.91 crystals. In addition, the derived anisotropic g-factor ratios (gab /gc) …

Australian Institute for Innovative Materials - Papers
In this work, the flow of the Josephson vortices (JVs) has been studied for the highly anisotropic Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3Oy (Bi2223) single crystals. A giant flow of JVs or giant positive magnetoresistance (MR) of over 500%-2000% was obtained in fields of 0.1-5 T and remained almost constant over a wide temperature range from 110 down to 4 K, in contrast to superconducting vortices (SVs), which only produced MR in the vicinity of Tc. The flow of the JVs is expected to be much faster than that of SVs. It is proposed …

We investigate the transport of vortices in superconductors with inhomogeneous pinning under a driving force. The inhomogeneity of pinning is simplified as strong-weak pinning regions. It is demonstrated that the interactions between the vortices captured by strong pinning potentials and the vortices in the weak pinning region cause absolute negative motion (ANM) of vortices: The vortices which are climbing toward the high barriers induced by the strong pinning with the help of driving force move toward the opposite direction of the force and back to their equilibrium positions in the weak pinning region as the force decreases or is withdrawn. …

Spectroscopic Studies Of Laser Plasmas For Euv Sources, Simi A. George
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
With the availability of high reflectivity multilayer mirrors and zone plate lenses, the EUV region (5nm - 40nm) of the electromagnetic spectrum is currently being explored for applications of nanoscale printing and imaging. Advances made in this area have consequences for many areas of science. Research for producing a compact, bright EUV source for laboratory use has gained momentum in recent years. For this study, EUV radiation is produced by irradiating target materials using a focused laser beam. Focused laser beam ionizes the target to create a hot, dense, pulsed plasma source, where emission is a result of the relaxation …
