Prompt gamma neutron activation analysis of niobium for characterization of light interstitials

Creator:: Love, Ian J.
Abstract:: High purity niobium metal is used in the construction of superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities in superconducting particle accelerators, such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN or the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The usual method for characterizing the impurities in this niobium, the...

Development of Practical Accelerated Testing Protocols for the Performance Evaluation of Concrete against Microbially Induced Corrosion of Concrete

Creator:: Erbektas, Ali Riza
Abstract:: Sustainable wastewater infrastructure systems are vital for civilizations to protect public health. Most of the structural elements of wastewater infrastructure are constructed using concrete owing to its versatility, low cost, and durability. Concrete structures that are exposed to wastewater can experience Microbially Induced Corrosion of Concrete (MICC), which is a...

Towards an Integrated Decision Tool for Managing Wildlife with Visitor Restrictions in Glacier Bay National Park

Creator:: Whitlock, Steven L.
Abstract:: The National Park Service has a dual mission of providing public access to exceptional natural resources, but in a manner such that these resources are left “unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations.” Human activities in parks undoubtedly affect wildlife, but the degree to which such activities cause impairment is...

Atmospheric sulfur cycling in the southeastern Pacific – longitudinal distribution, vertical profile, and diel variability observed during VOCALS-REx

Creator:: Yang, M., Huebert, B. J., Blomquist, B. W., Howell, S. G., Shank, L. M., McNaughton, C. S., Clarke, A. D., Hawkins, L. N., Russell, L. M., Covert, D. S., Coffman, D. J., Bates, T. S., Quinn, P. K., Zagorac, N., Bandy, A. R., de Szoeke, Simon P., Zuidema, P. D., Tucker, S. C., Brewer, W. A., Benedict, K. B., and Collett, J. L.
Abstract:: Dimethylsulfide (DMS) emitted from the ocean is a biogenic precursor gas for sulfur dioxide (SO₂) and non-sea-salt sulfate aerosols (SO₄²⁻). During the VAMOS-Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study Regional Experiment (VOCALS-REx) in 2008, multiple instrumented platforms were deployed in the Southeastern Pacific (SEP) off the coast of Chile and Peru to study the linkage...

Characterization of Neurospora crassa and Fusarium graminearum mutants defective in repeat-induced point mutation

Creator:: Pomraning, Kyle R.
Abstract:: Mutation of repetitive DNA by repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) is a process that occurs in many filamentous fungi of the Ascomycota during the sexual cycle. Concurrently, direct DNA repeats are often deleted by homologous recombination at high frequency during the sexual cycle. Thus, the processes of RIP and deletion compete...

Homeodomain Transcription Factor Pitx2 is Required for Muscle Maintenance and Energy Homeostasis

Creator:: Lattier, Vera C.
Abstract:: Skeletal muscle, the largest organ in the body in mass, is composed by 600 specialized muscles in humans with unique biochemical, physiological and metabolic identities. Skeletal muscles control body movement, locomotion, and nutrient balance. Muscle formation requires precisely orchestrated environmental signals and regulatory gene networks in time and space. Gene...
