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
(1997) -
Observation of the 7320A O=(2P) Airglow Emission at Twilight
(1987)This paper discusses the method of obtaining an altitude profile for atomic oxygen in the upper atmosphere by observing the sunlight-stimulated 7320A airglow emission of the 0+(2p) ion (whose abundance is directly proportional ... -
Online Event Reconstruction of Data Taken by the High Resolution Fly's Eye Cosmic Ray Detector
(1999)The High Resolution Fly's Eye Detector (HiRes) has been observing high-energy (10 17 eV and greater) cosmic rays since the summer of 1997. Cosmic rays are made up predominately of positively charged particles that, when ... -
Operating Characteristics of the Maryland Point 85-Foot Radio Telescope at Low Frequencies
(1987)The following report results from a study of the characteristics of the NRL operated Maryland Point 85' radio telescope, located near Nanjemoy, MD. This study was made in Fall1987 by Brian Tracey and Mike DeVries.. The ... -
Optimization of Interferometer Design for Measurement of Spin Injection Dynamics in Semiconductors
(2016)This report presents the results of an experimental study on noise limitations when measuring nanoradian polarization rotations by three different methods. The ability to measure these rotations within the photon shot noise ... -
The Performance of Plastic Scintillation Detectors
(1965)This project is concerned with the performance of plastic scintillation detectors in the detection of protons and indication of their energy. Of specific interest are proton-proton scattering events in which both ... -
Photoacoustic Signal Detection and a Method for Simulating Light Absorption in a Resonant Optoacoustic Chamber
(1981)The objective of research presented here was to determine if a signal, attributable to the optoacoustic effect, could be detected and measured. This was to be accomplished through the use of the equipment available in ... -
Photorefractive Effec in Undoped and Cr-doped BGO Samples Using Low Energy Lasers at Standard Temperature
(2002)The properties of photo refractive materials have displayed the possibility of being used for a new form of data storage. Currently, the majority of successful experiments that display this form of storage are very ... -
Physics Based CAVE Virtual Reality
(1997)The term Virtual Reality (VR) is used by many different people with many meanings. For the purposes of this paper, we restrict VR to computer mediated systems. Virtual Reality is a way for humans to visualize, manipulate ... -
Physics SIPs, 1962-2009
(2009)This is a list of Senior Individualized Projects completed in the Physics Department at Kalamazoo College from 1962 to 2009. -
The Place of Reason in Human Experience According to A.N. Whitehead
(1970)During the course of the adventure from which this e ssay forms an abstract, the question arose as to why a student of physical science such as I should devote such an important part of his studies as the senior ... -
Plasma Diagnostics for Applications in Space Propulsion
(2000)The single largest stumbling block in the present endeavor to explore space is the simple dollar-per-pound cost necessary to put spacecraft in orbit. While many initiatives to design better, faster, cheaper rockets ... -
Plasma Simulation and Transport at the Magnetospheric Boundary
(2007)Plasma and magnetospheric physics are reviewed, and the KelvinHelmholtz Instability (KHI), the focus of the research, is introduced. Using the results or KHI and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations combined with ... -
Plasma Wave Observations During Geomagnetic Storms with MMS
(2020-04-01)During magnetic storms, the Earth’s atmosphere loses enhanced amounts of oxygen which escapes to the magnetosphere. In space, governed by the Earth’s magnetic field, these oxygen ions gyrate around magnetic field lines and ... -
Plotting Magnetic Fields Using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
(1966)Since its discovery in 1945 by two independent researchers, Felix Bloch of stanford and Edward M. Purcell of Harvard, nuclear magnetic resonance has been recognized to be an extremely useful tool in research. For their ...
