A system to perform neutron radiographic analysis of dynamic
events taking place over the order of several milliseconds has been
developed at Oregon State University. The design consists of a TRIGA
reactor capable of pulsing to 3000 MW peak power, a neutron beam
collimator with an L/D of about 30:1,...
Adolescence is a developmental stage marked by crystallization in individuals’ sense of identity (Erikson, 1994; Harter, 1999). Research on positive youth development stresses the ways in which thriving trajectories during adolescence contribute to positive lifelong outcomes (Lerner & Overton, 2008; Scales, Benson, & Roehlkepartain, 2011) A symbolic interactionism perspective (Mead,...
Methane reservoirs and seeps are an active component
of the continental margin carbon budget and represent a
poorly characterized pathway for reduced carbon cycling
and methane input to the atmosphere. Active gas seeps from
three shelf settings on the Cascadia Continental Margin off
Oregon and Northern California contain nearly pure...
Disc gel electrophoresis of the vegatative cell -free extracts ofstrains of Clostridium botulinum types A, B, C, E, and F and therelated nontoxic group showed limited value as a means for identifyingthese closely related microorganisms, since separation,though not consistent in all cases, could only be based on the numberof protein...
The present study is an attempt to investigate some of the relationships
between certain personality characteristics and expressed
preferences for various communication structures; it is also an
examination of the relative efficiency of the networks used.
Subjects drawn from the university population participated in
experimentally formed five-person groups. These groups...
Oregon Biography Index is intended to serve primarily as a starting point in locating biographies of Oregonians. We have indexed 47 historical volumes which are either entirely devoted to biographies or have large self-contained biographical sections. The profiles in the books vary widely in accuracy and detail. Birth dates of...
Surface transient storage (STS) in stream ecosystems serve an important function in retaining nutrients and refugia for aquatic communities. Unfortunately, they can retain contaminants as well. Therefore, it is of importance to determine the residence time distribution (RTD). A RTD of a particular STS zone encompasses the time it takes...
Program description: Do users want simpler access to "best sources" for subject research? Should libraries filter information by discipline, subject area or course? Should information be tailored to undergraduate level? This presentation will present findings from research on these and other questions.
