An analysis of fission product gamma spectra : the use of nuclear systematics to estimate gamma spectra

Creator:: Holter, Gene David
Abstract:: The gamma contribution to reactor afterheat depends on gamma energy since high-energy commas are more likely to escape from tilt. fuel. The objective of this work is to investigate the gamma-energy spectrum of a pure U-235 fission reactor. Fission-product nuclides are first listed in order' of importance as contributors to...

Boundary value problems and bifurcation theory for ordinary differential equations

Creator:: Malloy, David
Abstract:: Two numerical methods are presented that can be used to solve second order nonlinear ordinary differential equations with periodic boundary conditions. One of these methods is a shooting method developed solely for the periodic problem. The other, "quasilinearization," is a method applicable to a wide variety of problems. It is...

Photoperiodic control of development in the leafhopper, Agalliopsis abietaria Oman

Creator:: Brown, Robert David
Abstract:: Photoperiod controls the duration of both the fourth and fifth stadia in Agalliopsis abietaria Oman. Development was arrested in the fourth stadium unless short days were given during the second and third instars; a short arrest of development occurred if the short days did not begin until the fourth instar....

Immune responses of salmonids : a) Oral immunization against Flexibacter columnaris : b) Effects of combining antigens in parenterally administered polyvalent vaccines

Creator:: Ransom, David Peter
Abstract:: Juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) were orally immunized against the bacterium Flexibacter columnaris (formerly Chondrococcus columnaris), the causative agent of columnaris disease in fish, with a vaccine-food preparation containing formalin-killed cells. Fish immunized for 1, 2, 3, and 4 months were challenged with selected concentrations of F. columnaris by exposure...

Role of male mating behavior in the induction of ovulation in rough-skinned newts, Taricha granulosa

Creator:: McCormack, Christine
Abstract:: To determine whether meiotic maturation of ovarian follicles, ovulation, and oviposition are influenced by male mating behaviors, female rough-skinned newts (Taricha granulosa) were captured prior to contact with males and maintained in simulated pond conditions. Females were either exposed to male courtship and inseminated or were isolated from male contact....

Satisfaction with clothing and personal appearance related to self-esteem and participation in activities among full-time homemakers

Creator:: Olstrom, Janet Marie
Abstract:: The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationships among satisfaction with clothing, satisfaction with physical appearance, concern over weight, self-esteem, and participation in leisure-time activities among a sample of full-time homemakers. To test these relationships, five measures were used. Satisfaction with clothing was measured by comparing the actual...

Reproductive cycle of the male newt Taricha granulosa : exogenous and endogenous regulation of plasma androgens

Creator:: Specker, Jennifer Lee
Abstract:: During a 13-month period starting in October of 1976, adult male rough-skinned newts (Taricha granulosa) were collected periodically to study seasonal changes in reproductive status. Plasma androgen concentration, measured by radioimmunoassay, is elevated during autumn and spring (about 50 ng/ml). Winter and summer levels are considerably lower (less than 10...

An ultrastructural study of early cleavage in Mytilus

Creator:: Elvin, Patricia J.
Abstract:: Ultrastructural analysis and chemical inhibition studies were carried out on first cleavage of Mytilus zygotes to determine possible relationships between the mitotic apparatus and the cortex during polar lobe formation. The stages of mitosis correlated with the appearance of the polar lobe were first determined by light microscopy. The polar...

Clothing behavior related to certain personality traits of a selected group of Japanese and American men and women

Creator:: Sugimura, Diane Maeda
Abstract:: The study was undertaken for the purpose of investigating the relationship between clothing behavior and sex, Japanese and American cultures, feminine or masculine personality types, and sex-role concepts. The aspects of clothing behavior included in the study are interest, tolerance, acceptance, and innovation of uni-sex clothing items, and the femininity-masculinity...
