A Proton Beam Current Integrator for the Kalamazoo College Accelerator
(1973)The purpose or this project was actually two-fold. The first chronologically was to develop an efficient method for design and manufacture of a single one-sided printed circuit board. The second was to search in the ... -
A Proton Resonance Study of Antiferromagnetic MnCl2*4H20
(1965)In this paper we present a NMR technique for determining the orientation of the local field vectors that does not require the application of a high magnetic field. The only magnetic field required is that of a ... -
Quantifying the Characteristics of Viruses in the Leviviridae Family Using Icosahedral Point Arrays
(2022-06-01)Point arrays provide a neat method for structural comparison between viruses by highlighting different aspects of the viral capsid. For very structurally similar viruses, using multiple point array fits instead of just the ... -
Quantum Computing and the Temperature Dependence of Trions in Quantum Dot Potentials
(2001)Quantum computers have the possibility of revolutionizing computer science and the computer industry. Thus, research into the development of quantum computers, while only at the earliest stages, is exciting and of great ... -
The Quantum Nature of Electrons
(1979)Diffraction of individual electrons is considered in this automated experiment in an effort to demonstrate that single electrons exhibit a wave nature. A CRT with a polycrystalline target is used for diffraction and initial ... -
Radical Design Paradigms For Sustainable Construction at Kalamazoo College
(2010)In June 2007 Kalamazoo College committed to pursue carbon neutrality by signing the American Colleges and Universities Presidential Climate Commitment. In November 2008 the College conducted a greenhouse gas inventory ... -
Real-Time Domain Pitch Tracking Using Wavelets
(2005)A pitch tracker based on the fast lifting wavelet transform (FLWT) is developed in Matlab and C++. The algorithm is designed to function on vocal samples with a range of 90–1500 Hz. With under 25 ms latency, RMS error ... -
Recording Technology: A Progression from Phonograph to Hard Disk
(2002)The field of recording technology calls upon many disciplines of physics. From electromagnetics to acoustics and mechanics, the process of recording sound has developed along with progress in these various arenas. This ... -
The Recycled Solar Oven
(2008)In the design process of the oven, I will emphasize improvements in price, mobility and simplicity to the design. I will have access to a shop, including several tools in which I will build the oven. The design will ... -
Relative Gama-Ray Intensity Measurements Using a Lithium-Drifted Germanium Detector
(1967)This method is as accurate as any other now existing. N can be determined to within 2% with good statistics and reasonable care. One limit is the memory size of the multichannel analyzer. The greater the capacity of ... -
Relaxation Time in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Absorption
(1971)The experiment under consideration in this paper attempts to measure the relaxation time of protons in samples of water doped with varying concentrations of paramagnetic ions. The specific technique used in this experiment ... -
Required Differential Pressure for Rotary Syphons in Paper Dryers
(1987)Testing of rotary syphons in a 5 ft diameter by 21 ft face length paper dryer has been conducted in order to better understand the effects of blow-thru steam, condensing rate, dryer speed, and dryer pressure on differential ... -
The Resistance of a Spark
(1964)This paper is the result of three months of research conducted in the physics laboratory at Kalamazoo College. For the allotted time, a judicious choice regarding the general area of spark discharges in which work was ... -
Review and Data Analysis of Hydrogen Passivated Amorphous Silicon and Microcrystalline Photovoltaic Cells
(2001)Of all the technologies harnessing renewable energy, one of the most promising and exciting is that of solar power. Solar power, via the photovoltaic (PV) effect, has been around since the mid-1950's. Applications for solar ... -
A Review of the Teaching Methods Applied in the Introductory Physics Class at Kalamazoo College
(2015)The goal of this study is to examine and evaluate the teaching methods used in the introductory physics course at Kalamazoo College. Previously the class was taught as a lecture course which included some peer instruction, ... -

RF Throughput of Dispersion-Shifted Optical Fiber Propagating Intensity Modulated Laser Light
(1991)The theoretical effects of chromatic dispersion in silicon-based single-mode optical fiber on intensity modulated laser light are discussed. A model for small-signal tone modulation is developed; experimental techniques ... -
Robotic Arm and End of Arm Tooling Analysis
(2016)In the summer and winter of 2015 the author had the opportunity to work at A.S.S (Automation System Services) End of Arm Tooling, shadowing engineers and learning how to design and build EOATs for various products. A.S.S ... -
Rounding Phenomena Present in the Propagation of Low Amplitude Shock Waves in a Tube
(1971)The objective of this project was to attempt to determine causes for the two types of rounding that had been observed. Two particular effects seemed pertinent to our experimental situation. Whenever sound waves propagate ...
