Lamellar x-ray diffraction was studied from thin films of L-α-1,2-dipalmitoyl lecithin (DPL) and a 1:1 mixture (BrDPL) of L-α-l-palmitoyl-2-(9- bromopaimitoyl) lecithin and its 10-bromo analog. The specimens had high lamellar order, with an upper bound on the mosaicity of 6 mrad (0.4°) for DPL and BrDPL. With various water contents,...
A cost reduction analysis is performed by coordinating
the exchange of LANDSAT (formerly ERTS) data between a CDC
3300 and a PDP8/L minicomputer. The LANDSAT data is displayed
on a 4002 Tektronix terminal by means of a grayscale output.
Large amounts of data and number manipulation are processed
in the...
The energy absorbed by microscopic volumes exposed to ionizing
radiation is not well represented by the average dose due to the small
number of discrete energy transfers involved. The energy deposited in
a microscopic volume can be determined by measuring the ionization in
a detector filled with gas at low...
Experiments were conducted to study the effect of pore size
distribution on the diffusion of 2, 4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (carbon-
14) through water saturated porous media. Eight size fractions of
glass beads were used representing the porous media. It was found
that as the average particle radius, and hence pore radius,...
The goal of this research was to identify those program elements
and their levels of fulfillment in community college cooperative
education programs which are essential if the success of an employer's
contribution to a student's training is to be reasonably assured.
The primary purpose was to determine if statistically significant...
Soils representative of several landscape units in the H. J.
Andrews Experimental Forest, Western Cascade Range, were sampled,
analyzed, and tentatively classified. Genetic inferences were
drawn relating soils to landscape position and other factors of soil
formation. Descriptive information and nutrient capital data were
provided to support ecosystem modelling efforts...
Three genetically different dwarf cultivars of spring wheat were
evaluated as potential sources of short stature to use in a wheat improvement
program. The study involved a five parent diallel cross
which included a semidwarf, a standard height and three dwarf cultivars.
The genetic sources of dwarfism included a Norma...
