A New Crinoid Slab, A Bit Of Mississipian Sea Bottom, Erwin Hinckley Barbour

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum

Crinoids are popularly known as stone-lilies, featherstars, and sea-lilies. The word lily is a misnomer, and many, misled by the name and by the lily-like form, associate crinoids with the plant kingdom. The name, feather-star, seems explicit for it refers to the feathery arms surrounding the cup or calyx, and expresses relationship to the starfishes and their kind. The cup is attached to a stem, and the stem is anchored to the ocean floor by so-called roots, which are really hold-fasts, or anchors. These features may be seen in the diagram at the end.

The Giant Beaver, Castoroides, And The Common Beaver, Castor, In Nebraska, Erwin Hinckley Barbour

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum

Respecting the giant beaver, Castoroides, in Nebraska, four occurrences can be reported. Of rodents in general the dawn. was in the early Eocene, at which time there were in existence certain squirrel-like members of the order. Rodents are a persistent group, and are among the smallest, most distinctive, most numerous and widely distributed orders of terrestrial mammals. No other order boasts of so many species, the number being between nine hundred and one thousand. In spite of wide divergencies and modifications adapting them to various modes of life, such as climbing, burrowing, swimming, flying, leaping, and running, there is remarkable …

The Musk-Oxen Of Nebraska, Erwin Hinckley Barbour

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum

The remains of no less than eight fossil musk-oxen are already known in Nebraska, of which one is preserved in the Museum at Hastings, Nebraska, and seven in the State Museum at Lincoln. This is a large number to be recorded in anyone state. As late as 1891 authors wrote that but two examples of musk-oxen were known in the United States, one from Kentucky, and one from Arkansas, if, indeed, they be valid species. Now that pioneer days are well behind this commonwealth, and that there is a growing sentiment for exploration and proper display of the State's resources, …

Reactions Between The Stannous And Arsenate Ions In Silicic Acid Gels, Willard Merle Farr

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Observation of crystal growths resulting from the chemical interaction of stannous chloride and sodium arsenate in silicic acid gels revealed the following very interesting fact. Gels identical in every respect except acidity, contained crystal growths varying greatly in appearance.

The purpose of this investigation was, therefore, to allow stannous and arsenate ion to combine in a series of accurately prepared gels, identical in all respects except the acid content, and to observe the effect upon crystal growth of: (1) varying the acid concentration; and (2) varying the kind of acid

A Preliminary Study Of The Separation Of The Copper Sulfides From Sphalerite And The Effect Of Certain Reagents On Some Of The Pure Copper Minerals In Synthetic Mixtures, Gailen T. Vandel

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The problem of separating the copper sulfide minerals from sphalerite, in copper - zinc ores, has been a difficult one. This is largely due to the lack of adequate research and the small amount of data obtainable on the behavior of copper and zinc sulfide minerals in flotation circuits.

Geology And Acid Intrusions Of Marlboro Township, Vermont, Stanley Gordon Elder

Honors Papers

It is the aim of this paper to examine the mineralization resulting from the intrusion of acid dikes and veins into the schists of Marlboro township, Vermont, and to give a brief account of the geology of the area.

The problem of mineralization in southern Vermont is one which has been treated very slightly and is one which is deserving of more study than it has received. This problem results from the presence of numerous acid igneous masses in all the formation of the region. Petrographic research in the igneous intrusions was done partially with the hope that the study …

A Study Of An Objective Placement Examination For Sectioning College Physics Classes, John Milton Willson

Masters Theses

"For several years the Department of Physics of the Missouri School of Mines has practiced sectioning of its classes in general physics. The aim has been to segregate in one section the students of superior ability, giving them a course including both the fundamentals of physics and their applications in engineering. The remainder are given a course in fundamentals without placing so much stress upon the applications...Another criterion used to supplement the first-year grade record is the student's score on the Iowa Placement Examinations. The physics examination consists of two parts, the Training Series and the Aptitude Series. These examinations …

Oxygen is the first immediate necessity of life and water is second. Both directly and indirectly and more than soil, water is our most basic resource. It is the universal solvent and without it there would be no life, and, of course, no agriculture and industry.

A Study Of The Miscibility Of Various Liquids With Ethylene Glycol, Joseph J. Furlong

Bachelors’ Theses

Ethylene glycol is a compound possessing great interest, both from a theoretical and a practical standpoint. In its properties it lies midway between ethyl alcohol, C₂H₅0H, and glycerol, C₃H₅(0H)₃, the three compounds together forming an homologous series of alcohols.

A few years ago this substance was a scientific curiosity, produced solely by laboratory methods, and without any commercial value, although it had been known for more than sixty years. Today the manufacturers cannot produce enough glycol to satisfy the growing demand. The DuPont organization wanted to use it in a …

The Development Of Colloid Chemistry, Oscar A. Bouise

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation

At first, it was a blur, that had shrouded a great mystery for ages and ages, until some seventy odd years ago. Then came Thomas Graham, who could not satisfy himself with merely viewing a blur as a blur. Being a scientist, he applied his mind experimentally, with the keen precision of any of the eminent astronomers using a telescope, and viewed more clearly this mist which hovered above the horizon . But maybe it was not due time fir the unfolding of the great secret, for Graham's focus only revealed a more complicated mist that had been seen before. …

The Crystallation Of Estrogen-Binding Protein From Candida Albicans, Carl Francis Ackerbauer

Honors Theses

Cells of the type, Pt +, Metallic Salt, Incadescent Electric Lamp, were investigated for a study of the elctrolytic proceses whereby various ions entered and replaced others already in the glass. The medium has a high viscosity even to temperatures of several hundred degrees. The Study was confined to the nature of the changes and a possible quantitative result. Glass conducts electrolytically at all temperatures but more so at high temperatures, the Na + travels toward the cathode while the Sio--, not being a simple ion, and being very sluggish remains practically stationary. If the material, capable of supplying ions …

A Study Of Some Properties Of Silicic Acid Gels, William Joseph Rothemich Jr.

Honors Theses

When a solution of sodium silicate or water glass is mixed with an acid sooner or later a gel is formed. The speed of gelation is known to be dependent upon the concentration of water glass, the excess of acid or alkali present, agitation, temperature, and the kind of acid used. In my work with the setting of the gels these five points were kept as constant as possible.
