Some of the properties of the numbers of two quadratic number
fields are explored. Among these properties is the existence of
unique prime factorization of the integers of the field and the importance
of the concept of ideal numbers in restoring unique factorization
when it does not exist. Some consideration...
Subsurface mapping was used to determine the structure andgeologic history of the South Cuyama dome and part of the Russellfault in the South Cuyama oil field area. Deformed Late Cretaceousand or early Tertiary marine strata are unconformably overlain bythe late Oligocene to early Miocene Vaqueros Formation (QuailCanyon Sandstone Member, Soda...
