Investigation of Glacier Dynamics During the Last Glacial Maximum at Tioga Pass, Yosemite National Park

Creator:: Laub, Alexander G.
Abstract:: Previous investigations of glacier dynamics at Tioga Pass during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) have produced different conclusions. A map of the LGM ice extent and flow direction (Alpha et al., 1987) illustrates a south-to-north direction of ice flow across the pass with little evidence to support this inference. Since...

The Legends of a Traveler : Excavating a Transnational Past through Storytelling in Irving's Alhambra

Creator:: Lammers, Jack
Abstract:: To the chagrin of his American comrades, Washington Irving would spend much of his life in Europe as a writer and cross-cultural explorer, including a stay in the halls of the Alhambra.

Redefining “The Romance of Travel” in Edith Wharton’sA Motor‐Flight Through France

Creator:: Balleby, Breanna
Abstract:: In the beginning of her travelogue, A Motor‐Flight Through France (1908), Edith Wharton declares that “the motor‐car has restored the romance of travel.” Many scholars have taken this statement as an index to the book’s themes. However, my reading closely examines particular moments of travel (specifically Wharton’s visits to Beauvais...

Data driven study of neutron response in Minerva using quasielastic neutrino scattering

Creator:: Peters, Evan
Abstract:: Understanding how particles behave in detectors is a critical part of analyzing data from neutrino experiments. There are methods in place to track charged particles in scintillator material, but neutral particles such as neutrons are more difficult to characterize. The purpose of this project was to assess and calibrate methods...

The geometry of the octonionic multiplication table

Creator:: Killgore, Peter Lloyd
Abstract:: We analyze some symmetries of the octonionic multiplication table, expressed in terms of the Fano plane. In particular, we count how many ways the Fano plane can be labeled as the octonionic multiplication table, all corresponding to a specified octonion algebra. We show that only 28 of these labelings of...
