Effects of situationally induced affect on boys' generosity toward peers

Creator:: Palmer, Marilyn Elizabeth
Abstract:: This study examines the effect of mood and fairness of treatment on children's generosity toward peers. Thirty-one third and nineteen fourth grade males participated. A positive or negative mood was induced using recorded stories. Each child then played a ring toss game for which he had been promised a certain...

Pathogenic and gel electrophoretic comparison of pseudomonads from fruit trees

Creator:: Palmer, Brent C., 1933-
Abstract:: Sixty-two isolates of Pseudomonas, principally from fruit trees, were compared on the basis of LOPAT characteristics, pathogenicity, and protein band pattern produced by gel electrophoresis of soluble proteins. All but one of the oxidase negative isolates fell into LOPAT group Ia. The oxidase positive isolates were placed into groups IVa,...

Chemical signaling and pheromone evolution in plethodontid salamanders

Creator:: Palmer, Catherine Anne
Abstract:: My dissertation focuses on the evolutionary forces that have shaped the chemical signaling system of plethodontid salamanders. Pheromones mediate two phases of plethodontid reproduction: mate attraction prior to courtship and female persuasion during courtship. Substrate-borne chemical signals are believed to play an important role in mate attraction for these animals....

Solution of the 2D quasi-diffusion low-order equations using a coupled nodal/finite volume discretization in Cartesian and hexagonal geometry

Creator:: Nes, Razvan
Abstract:: An important improvement in the area of reactor core neutronic modeling is the development and use of the methods based on "quasi-diffusion" (QD) low-order equations. This family of methods takes into account the transport exactly using "functionals" computed by solving transport equations, and is amenable to solution with a variety...

Radiative heat transfer in combustion applications : parallel efficiencies of two gas models, turbulent radiation interactions in particulate laden flows, and coarse mesh finite difference acceleration for improved temporal accuracy

Creator:: Cleveland, Mathew A.
Abstract:: We investigate several aspects of the numerical solution of the radiative transfer equation in the context of coal combustion: the parallel efficiency of two commonly used opacity models, the sensitivity of turbulent radiation interaction (TRI) effects to the presence of coal particulate, and an improvement of the order of temporal...

Molybdenum-99 production in the Oregon State TRIGA reactor : analysis of the reactor design using a new LEU target as fuel

Creator:: Hummel, Andrew J.
Abstract:: The most widely used and versatile medical radioisotope today is technetium-99m. Roughly 30 million people depend on this radioisotope for diagnostic procedures each year, and this demand is expected to grow. Although there are numerous ways of procuring this isotope, the most common and most practical, for reasons to be...

Simulated antineutrino signatures of nuclear reactors for nonproliferation applications

Creator:: Misner, Alex C.
Abstract:: Antineutrino detectors could provide a valuable addition to current safeguards regimes. Antineutrinos are an attractive emission to monitor due to their low interaction cross-section that prevents them from being shielded and the dependence of their spectrum on the power level and isotopic content of a reactor core. While there are...

A Rapid β-/γ Autoradiographic Imaging Method for Post-detonation Nuclear Forensics and Radiological Emergency Response

Creator:: Foley, Ari A. R.
Abstract:: In a radiological emergency scenario, the capability to rapidly visualize radiation emitted from debris, contamination, or absorbed in biological samples, while visualizing the non-radioactive (or “conventional” image) features within a ﬁeld of view, will provide critical information to support optimization of further analysis, sample collection, and decision making. This research...

Accelerated Deterministic Phonon Transport in Lithium Aluminate with Interfacial Scattering Treatment

Creator:: Whitman, Nicholas H.
Abstract:: We present a method for deterministically solving the consistent temperature and frequency dependent phonon radiative transport problem. We use the single relaxation time (SRT) approximation in the Self-Adjoint Angular Flux (SAAF) form with discrete ordinates (S_N) angular discretization method and continuous finite element method (CFEM) for spatial discretization. Included are...

Measurement of 239Pu, 237Np, and 238U Fission Product γ Rays

Creator:: Tamashiro, Aaron S.
Abstract:: Fission product yields (FPYs) are used for a wide range of applications including nuclear fission theory, nuclear reactor design, reactor antineutrino anomaly, stellar nucleosynthesis, and nuclear forensics. These applications rely on FPYs that were last evaluated in 1993, which included measurements from all over the world up until 1993. In...
