Comparing the Flux of the Cosmic Background Radiation, Man-Made Telecommunication, and Radio Terrestrial Thermal Background Noise Over Channel Bands In the 0.5 - 1000 MHz Range
(2010-03-22)In 1964, when using the 20-foot horn-reflector antenna at the Crawford Hill Laboratory in Holmdel, New Jersey, Penzias and Wilson discovered the Cosmic Background Radiation while attempting to observe weak radio signals ... -
Computational Fluid Dynamics Model of a Cyclone Separator
(2011-02-08)Air cyclones are a promising technology for first stage air filtration in future lunar habitats where lunar dust mitigation is a mission critical concern. Our experimental work with cyclones in microgravity as part of ... -
The Dectability of Broad Absorption Features in Echelle Spectroscopy
(2011-09-02)In astronomical spectroscopy, echelle spectrographs are frequently used due to several benefits: the wide wavelength coverage they offer, efficient ... -
Mathematical Properties of Juggling Patterns
(2011-09-02)In this report we study the mathematical properties of juggling. Juggling patterns can be described in mathematical terms that allow us to analyze their properties. We focus on transitioning, or switching, between patterns ... -
Monitoring Bat Ac-vity In Rela-on to Building Development
(2011-02-08)The purpose of our study was to monitor bat ac-vity in areas of various levels of building development, with the assump-on of more ac-vity in areas with greater developed building structure than in areas of non‐developed ... -
Newly Recognized QSO/Galaxy Pairs at Small Impact Parameters for Low Redshift Galaxies
(2011-02-08)A search for emission lines in foreground galaxies, in QSO spectra (zgal << zQSO) of the SDSS data release 5, reveals 21 examples of QSOs shining through low redshift, foreground galaxies at low impact parameters (<10 kpc). ... -
The Over expression of the RNA “Goldilocks” and its effects on the bacteria, Escherichia Coli
(2011-09-02)Small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) are important molecules for translation and gene regulation in bacteria which make them key players in understanding their life cycles and pathogenesis. Furthermore they may lead to potential ... -
Selective amygdala lesions facilitate acquisition of signaled leverpress avoidance in Wistar Kyoto and Sprague Dawley rats.
(2011-02-08)The Wistar Kyoto rat strain (WKY) shows stress vulnerability via both autonomic (e.g., heart rate, gastric ulcers, etc.) and behavioral (freezing, inactivity) reactivity in stress inducing situations. The WKY rat has ... -
Shoreline Erosion of Lake Michigan at Carthage College
(2005)The study was to examine the shoreline of Lake Michigan at Carthage College in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The purpose of this study was to determine if rip rap that's located along the shore helps preventing erosion. The ... -

The Study of the Interaction between the sRNA C.0293 and Two Proteins – Hfq and HU
(2011-09-08)Small, noncoding RNAs (sRNAs) are found in bacteria and have similar analogues in eukaryotic cells. These specific RNAs are generally involved in gene regulation during cellular stress, such as acidic environments and cell ... -
Two Thermoelectric Materials: Thermoelectric Properties of SnTe-SnSe and Synthesis of Skutterudite Na1+xFe4P12
(2010-06-29)This thesis examines two different types of thermoelectric materials, compounds that can convert heat energy into electrical energy. First, Stevens et al. synthesized a two-phase SnTe- SnSe system and analyzed its ... -
Validation of Propellant Dynamics Model
(2011-02-08)n fluid dynamics, slosh refers to the movement of liquid inside a hollow object. We examine these dynamics in a scale-model of the Orion Service Module (SM) down-stream hydrazine propellant tank. The SM is a component of ... -
The Young’s Modulus of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
(2011-02-08)Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were discovered in 1952, but their exciting properties have been brought to the attention of the scientific community only recently. CNTs, which can be thought of as rolled up sheets of graphene, ...
