The Middle Atmosphere High Resolution Spectrograph Investigation: Theory and pre flight calibration
(1991)This report describes the Middle Atmosphere High Resolution Spectrograph Investigation, an on going investigation at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in Washington, D.C. I have been working under the supervision of Bob ... -
The Modeled Effects of Gametophytic Self-Incompatibility and Localized Gene Dispersal on Population Substructure
(Kalamazoo College, 1986)This study examines the effects of gametophytic self-incompatibility and localized gene dispersal on population substructure. The variation in population substructure is calculated using a value of genetic differentiation, ... -
Modeling and Analysis of Dielectric Response Behavior
(2001)Recently a graduate student proposed a new mathematical model for dielectric response behavior. This paper provides a brief summary of what that mathematical model is and addresses some ways to improve upon it. Specifically ... -
Modelled Behavior of Driven Granular Systems
(2001)This paper discusses a simulation modelling the behavior of an inelastic system of spherical particles under gravity rolling on an inclined surface and driven by an oscillating wall. The results of the simulation show ... -
Modification and Application of the Van de Graaff Generator
(2010)A Van de Graaff generator is a type of electrostatic generator that accumulates electric charge on a large metal sphere. In this paper a brief history of the Van de Graaff generator is presented, along with a description ... -
Moments of the Dipole Oscillator Strength Distribution for the Third Row Elements
(1975)The atomic dipole oscillator strength distribution and its moments S(µ) and L (µ), -6 < µ <1, are calculated for K through Kr. The oscillator strengths are based on Hartree-Slater wave functions. Results are compared with ... -
The Mössbauer Fraction for Fe-57 at Room Temperature
(Kalamazoo College., 1962-12-01)Five Mössbauer spectra for FE-57 were accumulated for different values of absorber thicknesses. The areas of transmission dips were determined and by an area ratio method the Mössbauer cross-section was determined. It was ... -
A Multichannel Telemetry System for Monitoring EKG Signals
(1984)It was the goal of this project to develop a system that would enable reductions In the unit's size and weight as well as enable an expansion to as many as four channels In its monitoring capabilities (four channels would ... -
The National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory
(1981)The following text is not intended to be a scientific document, but rather an informative essay on the basics of nuclear physics, cyclotron theory and construction, and the development and organization of the National ... -
Neutron Flux Analysis for Power Reactor Instrumentation Design
(1975)This Senior Individualized Project has been a first step theoretical analysis in an ongoing design engineering project conducted at the Nuclear Energy Division of the General Electric Company. A proposed "neutron window," ... -
New Gas Slowing Technology for Examination of New Exotic Isotopes
(2002)The ability to make high precision mass measurements will soon be realized at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory at Michigan State University. The Low Energy Beam and Ion Trap (LEBIT) project will have the ... -
Nikola Tesla: The Man and His Coil
(2008)Throughout history there have been many people who have made their mark by contributing to humanity’s advancement. Many of these people have been largely forgotten, while some went on to become legends. Scientists such ... -
A Non-Invasive Method To Monitor Gum Disease With An Ultrasonic Periodontal Probe
(2000)The long-term goal of the ultrasonic periodontal project is to create a non-invasive probe, which can accurately monitor gum disease. The project blends the scientific fields of biology, physics and engineering, in an ... -
Non-linear Reasonant Systems: Bifurcation and Chaos Development of a Fast Fourier Transform Driver
(1984)The response of non-linear resonant systems driven sinusoidally at resonance has complicated dependence on the amplitute of the driving signal. Chaos and bifurcation in driven non-linear resonant systems are examined here ... -
Nondestructive Evaluation of Steam Generator Tubes
(1998)The Steam Generator Tube Integrity Program at Argonne National Laboratory is developing a method for determining when the steam generator tubes are flawed without necessitating the removal and destruction of the generator ... -
The NRL Coronagraph: Resolution Testing of a Second Generation
(1985)During the Fall of 1985, I participated in the preliminary resolution testing of the prototype coronagraph. We experimentally determined many of its critical parameters, such as its angular field of view. Our main objective ... -
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance of Cl35 in FeCL2
(1964)This thesis describes an experimental study of the nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of Cl35 in a single crystal of FeC12. This crystal has an essentially cubic close-packed structure with trigonal distortion and an ... -
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Relaxation Time
(1970)The purpose of this particular experiment is to study a property of nuclear magnetic resonance, the characteristic relaxation time of the protons in water, in the presence of paramagnetic ions. The experiment 1s based ... -
A Nuclear Window to the Past
