The Consistent Histories Approach to the Stern-Gerlach Experiment

Creator:: Wilson, Ian
Abstract:: Standard quantum mechanics makes foundational assumptions to describe the measurement process. Upon interaction with a “classical measurement apparatus”, a quantum system is subjected to postulated “state collapse” dynamics. We show that framing measurement around state collapse and ill-defined classical observers leads to interpretational issues, and artificially limits the scope of...

Calculating characteristic timescales for environmental decoherence in the presence of thermal gravitons

Creator:: Nelson, Hunter
Abstract:: Different models show the effects of environmental decoherence on a quantum system due to various environments of interest. One important quantity within these models is the decoherence time, which tells us how quickly environments wash away the coherence of local measurements. We can describe this effect as the quantum system...

Evaluation of education libraries for teacher education accreditation

Creator:: Knittel, Marjorie C.
Abstract:: The purpose of this investigation was to examine the literature in education and library science to determine why standards for education libraries have not been realized, in the light of the specific criteria for other areas of teacher education accreditation. Educators and librarians in favor of strict standards for education...

Aegir Innovations: The Journey Untangling the Web of Social Networking

Creator:: Johnson, Brendan
Abstract:: Social networking is the concept that personal connections can form a large web of people and institutions that are essential in an individual’s realization of a goal. Social networking plays an important role in almost every business venture. This has proved to be especially true in the story of Aegir...

Forests on the Move: Forest Inventories and Wood Anatomy from the Fragmented Forests of Guairá, Paraguarí, and Central, Paraguay

Creator:: Cervantes, Andrew G.
Abstract:: Forest composition in Paraguay has been in a state of change for the past half century due to land management practices, forest fragmentation, and deforestation for agriculture. How these factors affect dendrological diversity and wood anatomy in Paraguay is not well understood. This thesis documents Paraguayan forest composition on the...

Metabolism of pyrrolizidine alkaloids by ruminal microbes

Creator:: Hovermale, Jeannette Talbot
Abstract:: The plant Senecio jacobaea (tansy ragwort) produces several macrocyclic pyrrolizidine alkaloids which cause irreversible liver cirrhosis. All of the pyrrolizidine alkaloids in Senecio jacobaea are macrocyclic diesters of the necine base retronecine, with the two most predominant being seneciphylline and jacobine. Unlike horses and cattle, sheep and goats are generally...

Metabolism of toxic plant alkaloids in livestock : comparative studies on the hepatic metabolism of pyrrolizidine alkaloids in sheep and cattle and of ergot alkaloids in an endophyte-resistant mouse model

Creator:: Duringer, Jennifer Marie
Abstract:: The pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) and ergot alkaloids are known natural toxicants found in livestock forage. These alkaloids contribute to large economic losses in livestock throughout the world. An understanding of the mechanisms of toxicity and development of better diagnostic tools for better management practices was investigated. Variability exists in the...

Anaerobic biodegradation of the cyclic nitramines, RDX and HMX, by ovine ruminal microbes

Creator:: Eaton, Hillary L.
Abstract:: Cyclic nitramines released into all environmental compartments through anthropogenic activities are toxic and possibly carcinogenic and mutagenic. Soils on military ranges, located throughout the world in various climatic regions and close to human activities, are especially susceptible to cyclic nitramine contamination. The properties of soils on military ranges will directly...

Biotransformation of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene by ruminal organisms

Creator:: De Lorme, Marthah J. M.
Abstract:: 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene (TNT) has been the common munitions used in the world and is an environmental contaminant that is amendable to reductive transformation reactions. The rumen is an extremely reductive environment containing diverse microbial populations. There are 21 pure culture ruminal bacteria species in culture collection, these were tested for the...

Lead toxicity at various dosages in Naeemi lambs in Kuwait

Creator:: AL Sabbagh, Tariq Ashour
Abstract:: Environmental contamination along roadways with lead from processed petroleum and automotive residues has been reported. Toxicity to the herbivores grazing these areas has not been well studied. Comparison of lead concentrations adjacent to roads in Kuwait and in Oregon, USA was studied. Soil samples were taken from three sites at...
