Comparing Random and Nonrandom Spatial Patterns of Artifacts within Lithostratigraphic Unit 3 at Cooper’s Ferry, Idaho

Creator:: Gregory, Alex R.
Abstract:: Archaeological investigations at the Cooper's Ferry site in Western Idaho have recovered cultural remains dating to 16,000 years ago, suggesting the oldest human occupation recorded in North America. However, many archaeologists have argued the initial peopling of North America occurred no earlier than the opening of an ice-free corridor between...

A provenance study of crypto-crystalline silicates at the Cooper's Ferry site : a geochemical approach

Creator:: Nyers, Alexander John
Abstract:: A provenance study of crypto-crystalline silicates was performed at the Cooper's Ferry archaeological site in west-central Idaho on the Columbia Plateau. In this research, the author used instrumental neutron activation analysis as well as portable x-ray fluorescence to examine and characterize the geochemistry of 300 geologic samples of crypto-crystalline silicates...

Geoarchaeological research within five river miles of the Upper Klamath River Canyon : use of pedogenic properties to calculate alluvial terrace age

Creator:: Hescock, Sara
Abstract:: Soil is a valuable medium when investigating the past-- from understanding rates of development, landform evolution, to the construction of various predictive models. Landforms and sediments provide insight into depositional environments and soil morphology indicates pedogenic change within those landforms. The rate at which pedogenesis occurs has been quantitatively measured...

Comparison of eye plaque dosimetry using deterministic and Monte Carlo methods

Creator:: Bristol, Jonathan R.
Abstract:: Eye plaque brachytherapy is an established technique for the treatment of ocular melanoma that allows for the preservation of the affected eye as well as visual function. A common treatment planning system for eye plaque procedures, Plaque Simulator (PS), assists physicists in calculating the radiation dose to the tumor and...

Material Expressions of Class, Status and Authority amongst Commissioned Officers at Fort Yamhill and Fort Hoskins, Oregon, 1856-1866

Creator:: Eichelberger, Justin E.
Abstract:: During the 19th century the United States Army was a military institution characterized by a hierarchical system of authoritative, social and economic inequality between members of its different military grades. Although necessary for insuring military discipline within the Army this system of inequality also influenced the non-military social lives of...

Modification of Lower Plenum Structure for Mixing Promotion during Normal Operation of the High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactor

Creator:: Gradecka, Malwina
Abstract:: Since High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactors are being considered as most promising design of upcoming IV Gen reactors, thus key research areas were identified to address safety aspects of this design. Number of simulations and experiments need to be conducted in this field. In this study thermal-hydraulics aspects of coolant flow...

Developing Software Tools to Characterize Electrochemical Loss Scenarios via Gamma Detection for Various Measurement Points, Source Geometries, and Process Times

Creator:: Harris, Noah C.
Abstract:: Faithful modeling of the expected gamma signals inside an electrochemical facility at various key measurement points is important for understanding what detection limits are available for the next generation of safeguards technologies. Gamma Detector Response and Analysis Software (GADRAS) and the Separation Safeguards Performance Model (SSPM) were used to build...

How clean is coal : coal power plant ash pond regulations compared to nuclear reactor decommissioning standards

Creator:: Williams, Manuel P.
Abstract:: Coal power is the prominent source of energy in the United States (U.S.) and around the world. The byproducts of coal power contain many of the same radioactive nuclides that are found in the local environment just in higher concentrations. With so much of this ash being stockpiled, the amount...

An Archaeological Analysis of the Architectural Artifacts and Features at the Robert Newell Homestead Site (35MA41)

Creator:: Modelski, Emily
Abstract:: This thesis will explore the architectural material culture excavated at the Robert Newell Homestead (35MA41), currently located in Champoeg, Oregon. Specifically, the research focuses on the vernacular architecture or the features and construction methods used that both reflect the environment and the cultural traditions of the dwellings occupants. The Robert...

A Deterministic Photon and Electron Dosimetry Model for the Lens of the Eye

Creator:: Boozer, David L.
Abstract:: The lens dose equivalent (LDE) is a regulatory limit set to protect radiation workers. Current methods for estimating the LDE are specific to beam sources in a vacuum and require interpolating data from tables. A new set of deterministic equations for photon and electron point sources has been developed. These...
