  • Wavelength Dependence of the Scattering of Small Particles by Sunlight

    Creator:
    Bain, Scott A.
    Abstract:
    This project calculates the value of β for ice particles based on wavelength dependent values of their refractive and absorptive indices. β is the ratio of the force due to radiation to the force due to gravity acting on a particle in the solar system. This parameter can later be...

  • Optical Characterization of Transparent Conductive Thin Films

    Creator:
    Tucker, Derek A.
    Abstract:
    The optical characterization of transparent conductive thin films is demonstrated. The basics of transparency and conductivity, as they relate to transparent conductor research, are explained. A functional model of the reflectance and transmittance of a sample film, including interference fringes, is derived from the Fresnel electric field amplitude coefficients. The...

  • Priority asset utilization in parallel replacement analysis

    Creator:
    Wagner, Tristan John
    Abstract:
    Two policies for allocating individual assets from a pool of assets to incoming requests were contrasted within the context of replacement analysis. Assets within a pool are considered similar in the service they provide, but may differ in age and cumulative usage. The two policies considered for allocating assets to...

    Creator:
    Fettig, Doug J.
    Abstract:
    The LIGO interferometers have reached their designed sensitivity level which is greater than any other interferometer ever built. At this point, it is important to have a proper understanding of small perturbations that might still exist (until now these issues did not come to the forefront because other more critical...
