description: Equations of motion for weakly coupled excitonic complexes are derived. The description allows to treat the system in the basis of electronic states localized on individual chromophores, while at the same time accounting for experimentally observable delocalization effects in optical spectra. The equations are show to be related to the well-known Foerster type energy transfer rate equations, but unlike Foerster equations, they provide a description of the decoherence processes leading to suppression of the resonance coupling by bath fluctuations. Linear absorption and two-dimensional photon echo correlation spectra are calculated for simple model systems in homogeneous limit demonstrating distinct delocalization effect and reduction of the resonance coupling due to interaction with the bath.

Correlation of Black Hole-Bulge Masses by AGN Jets

Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: I propose a feedback model to explain the correlation between the supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass and the host galaxy bulge mass. The feedback is based on narrow jets that are launched by the central SMBH, and expel large amounts of mass to large distances. The condition is that the jets do not penetrate through the inflowing gas, such that they can deposit their energy in the inner region where the bulge is formed. For that to occur, the SMBH must move relative to the inflowing gas, such that the jets continuously encounter fresh gas. Taking into account the relative motion of the SMBH and the inflowing gas I derive a relation between the mass accreted by the SMBH and the mass that is not expelled, and is assumed to form the bulge. This relation is not linear, but rather the SMBH to bulge mass ratio increases slowly with mass. The same mechanism was applied to suppress star formation in cooling flow clusters, making a tighter connection between the feedback in galaxy formation and cooling flows.

description: Entre todos los campeones de la historia mundial del deporte, es difícil encontrar un personaje a quien se haya reservado una atención publica mas grande de la que obtuvo Diego Armando Maradona. Si en la Argentina y en Nápoles el Pibe de Oro pudo convertirse con facilidad en un icono de la cultura y de la tradición popular, la resonancia de su figura en vida, y el clamor planetario engendrado por su muerte, nos llevan a pensar mas bien en un fenómeno cultural universal, que encuentra ramas, lecturas, aceptaciones de nivel internacional. El número especial que las revistas FUNES y ERACLE (http://www.serena.unina.it/index.php/eracle) proponen en conjunto, tiene por lo tanto como objetivo investigar, en un plano comparativo y según una perspectiva interdisciplinaria, el alcance global, así como local, del fenómeno Maradona.

description: We discuss formulation of Wilson polygon - MHV amplitude duality at the perturbative level in various regularizations. For four gluons it is shown that at one loop one can formulate diagrammatic correspondence interpolating between the dimensional regularization and the off-shell one. We suggest new interpretation of all types of box diagrams in terms of the dual simplex in dimensional regularization and describe its degeneration to the Wilson polygon. The interesting nullification phenomena for the low-energy amplitudes in the Higgsed phase has been found.

description: Alfalfa is one of the most valuable of our forage crops. A dependable source of seed is therefore a primary essential to the success of our present system of agriculture. More than 70 million pounds of alfalfa seed are required each year in the United States to maintain the present hay and pasture acreage of this crop; and the annual demand for seed would increase to more than 100 million pounds if the acreage were expanded to the extent recommended for soil conservation and a balanced agricultural security.

description: The Production of turkeys comprises an important part of the cash farm income in Utah. In 1951 the cash receipts from turkeys amounted to $13,986,000, or 7.4 percent of the cash income from all farm commodities (4). In the year 1951 Utah ranked seventh in the nation in turkey production (5). The production of turkeys has risen from a humble beginning to one of the important agriculture enterprises in Utah.

description: The paper presents a model for liquid uranium dioxide, obtained by improving a simplified ionic model, previously adopted to describe the equation of state of this substance [1]. A "chemical picture" is used for liquid UO2 of stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric composition. Several ionic species are considered here: U(5+), U(4+), U(3+), O(2-) and O(-). The ions are described as charged hard-spheres of different diameters. Coulomb interaction of ions is taken into account according to the modified Mean Sphere Approximation (MSA). The main result of the new model is the appearance of natural "plasma" equivalent, which, from the theory, is directly related to the definition of oxygen potential in liquid UO(2+x). The features of the model make it possible to describe non-congruent phase equilibrium (and evaporation) in uranium dioxide, as well as other relevant phenomena characterising the phase equilibrium in chemically active matter. First calculation results are discussed.

Year: 1994

description: It has recently been shown that the W_3 and W^(2)_3 algebras can be considered as subalgebras in some linear conformal algebras. In this paper we show that the nonlinear algebras W_2,4 and W B_2 as well as Zamolodchikov's spin 5/2 superalgebra also can be embedded as subalgebras into some linear conformal algebras with a finite set of currents. These linear algebras give rise to new realizations of nonlinear algebras which could be suitable in the construction of W-string theories.

Results of this kind may find application in the other fields in which an essential role is played by a wave-equation (like acoustics, seismology, geophysics, etc.)

description: The association of: flies with man has been recorded through many centuries. In nearly all of these records the association is one of discord rather than harmony. In the Book of Exodus, 8:24, in the King James version of the Old Testament, we can read, "...and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses; and in all the land of Egypt the land was corrupted by reason of the swarms of flies." Centuries later the "grievous swarms of flies" 'were associated with a particular disease by Mercurialis. In 1577 he expressed the belief that flies carried the "virus" of plague from those ill or dead of plague to the food of those not yet ill of plague (8).
title: Some Chemical Properties of the Profiles of Two Soil Series as Shown by Horizons and by Increments
Creators: name: Hale, Verle Q.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1958

description: Soil classification in this country is based on the system proposed by Marbut in 1920 (2). This system uses eight criteria, one of which is the chemical composition of the soil horizons. Workers in the field of soil survey are depending more and more upon laboratory data to characterize and differentiate soils not only at the series level but also at higher levels of classification where it may be necessary to establish the presence or absence of critical horizons or characteristics. This was predicted by Robinson (16) when he said that laboratory analysis is needed to give "precise physical meaning to field descriptions" and that the importance of laboratory data increases as the classification of soils becomes more minute

description: We describe a Monte Carlo scheme for the grand canonical simulation study of fluid phase equilibria in highly size-asymmetrical binary mixtures. The method utilizes an expanded ensemble in which the insertion and deletion of large particles is accomplished {\em gradually} by traversing a series of states in which a large particle interacts only partially with the environment of small particles. Free energy barriers arising from interfacial coexistence states are surmounted with the aid of multicanonical preweighting, the associated weights being determined from the transition matrix. As an illustration, we present results for the liquid-vapour coexistence properties of a Lennard-Jones binary mixture having a 10:1 size ratio.

description: Herein, we demonstrate carbon nanotube (CNT)/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and CNT/Ecoflex composites, which have electric and thermo conductivity with elastic property. The result of the CNT elastomer composites properties are showed using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, current voltage curve, and strain after cycle. Next, we demonstrate the thermo-transferring effect on the composites and elastomers for heat efficiency, which is caused by the Joule heating effect. Thereafter, the 7.27 wt% CNT/Ecoflex are Joule heated under 0.1 A with variable voltages. Finally, the CNT elastomer composites are investigated for tactile resistive sensing with response and delay time for hundred milliseconds memorized sensor.

description: The study of the ^12C(^14N,^14N)^12C reaction was performed at two energies: 28 and 35 MeV.  The results were analyzed in the frame of the EFR-DWBA (Exact-Finite-Range Distorted Wave Born Approximation) assuming the simultaneous and sequential transfer of a  np pair. The angular distributions, fairly reproduced in the first case, confirm the validity of the generalized BCS (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer) theory to explain this behaviour.  Moreover this process could be regarded as a possible Nuclear Josephson Effect.

description: Reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea) is adapted to low wet lands and survives flooding and periods of drought. Much of the valley bottom land of Utah is flooded during part of the year, yet some of this land is very dry late in the summer. This grass could become an important forage for Utah's valley bottom lands if stand establishment could be assured. Low germination percentages and long germination periods under field conditions often result in poor stands.

description: Light scattering techniques are widely used in many fields of condensed and sof t matter physics. Usually these methods are based on the study of the scattered light in the far field. Recently, a new family of near field detection schemes has been developed, mainly for the study of small angle light scattering. These techniques are based on the detection of the light intensity near to the sample, where light scattered at different directions overlaps but can be distinguished by Fourier transform analysis. Here we report for the first time data obtained with a dynamic near field scattering instrument, measuring both polarized and depolarized scattered light. Advantages of this procedure over the traditional far field detection include the immunity to stray light problems and the possibility to obtain a large number of statistical samples for many different wave vectors in a single instantaneous measurement. By using the proposed technique we have measured the translational and rotational diffusion coefficients of rod-like colloidal particles. The obtained data are in very good agreement with the data acquired with a traditional light scattering apparatus.

For the laser pulse timing a novel ultrafast InGaAs MSM photodiode, with 30 ps risetime, has been used. Experience over a several months data taking period in 2001 and 2002 shows that drifts in timing down to about 70 ps can be traced.

description: Despite the global spread of intensive agriculture many populations retained foraging or mixed subsistence strategies until well into the twentieth century. Understanding why has been a longstanding puzzle. One explanation, called the marginal habitat hypothesis, is that foraging persisted because foragers tended to live in marginal habitats generally not suited to agriculture. However, recent empirical studies have not supported this view. The alternative but untested oasis hypothesis of agricultural intensification claims that intensive agriculture developed in areas with low biodiversity and a reliable water source not reliant on local rainfall. We test both the marginal habitat and oasis hypotheses using a cross-cultural sample drawn from the Ethnographic Atlas. Our analyses provide support for both hypotheses. We found that intensive agriculture was unlikely in areas with high rainfall. Further, high biodiversity, including pathogens associated with high rainfall, appears to have limited the development of intensive agriculture. Our analyses of African societies show that tsetse flies, elephants and malaria are negatively associated with intensive agriculture, but only the effect of tsetse flies reached significance. Our results suggest that in certain ecologies intensive agriculture may be difficult or impossible to develop but that generally lower rainfall and biodiversity is favourable for its emergence.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Evolutionary ecology of inequality’.

We identify an observable corresponding to the average energy per particle, and we prove that it is a conserved quantity. We prove that all solutions to the focusing GP hierarchy at the $L^2$-critical or $L^2$-supercritical level blow up in finite time if the energy per particle in the initial condition is negative. Our results do not assume any factorization of the initial data.

description: This thesis provides an analysis of institutional group agency, i.e. the capacity of institutional groups to perform actions. I explore different accounts of institutional group agency and consequently argue that it is best explained by so called role-based accounts. According to such role-based accounts of institutional agency, the actions of institutional groups consist of the contributory actions of the groups’ members, who act according to the tasks and functions of their institutional roles. I will, however, argue that such role-based theories of institutional action face certain problems. Most importantly, they under-theorize the relation between institutional roles and the individuals who occupy them. In order to illuminate this relation, I develop my own, novel account of Role Agency. Role Agency describes a form of agency that individuals engage in when they act within their institutional roles. It is best thought of as a form of perspective taking, which includes both the internalization and idealization of institutional roles.

description: The generation of an electron beam in a 3 GHz radiofrequency gun with a very low emittance requires a photocathode driven by a 10 ps ultraviolet high energy pulse with a rise time minor than 1 ps. This pulse can be provided by a Ti:Sa laser system completed with a pulse shaper programmed for thattask. We discuss the design of a 4f-grating-lens pulse shaper optimized for our long rectangular pulse and for the lowest sensitivity to alignment.  The Acousto-Optic Programmable Dispersive Filter shaping system is briefly discussed.
title: Effects of Perceived Child Rearing Practices on Moral Character
Creators: name: Beutler, Melody T.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1979

description: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between perceived child rearing practices and the moral character or pro-social behavior of students in their late teens and early twenties.
A questionnaire was administered to forty-eight students to test their moral character which was the dependent variable on the following traits: ambitious, broadminded, capable, cheerful, clean, courageous, forgiving, helpful, honest, imaginative, independent, intellectual, logical, loving, obedient, polite, responsible and self-controlled. The child rearing practices used by the mothers and fathers were also tested as the independent predictor variables according to the following terms: autonomy, coercion, companionship, guilt, inconsistency, love withdrawal, over protection, physical affection, positive reasoning, and support.
A similar questionnaire was also sent to the parents of these students asking the mother and father to rate their student's moral character and also how they feel they raised their son or daughter.
The results indicate fathers influence their daughter's moral character as much as do mothers. However, using the above moral character variables and child rearing practices variables, fathers only slightly influence their sons and mothers have no significant influence over their sons.
Parental child rearing techniques influencing the females the most are: low amounts of physical affection and autonomy from both parents, low amounts of support from the mother, and low amounts of guilt from the father. Also, high amounts of companionship and inconsistency from both parents are strong influences on moral character high ratings.
Those child rearing techniques promoting high moral character in males are low amounts of over protection and high amounts of love withdrawal from fathers.
It also appears the way children perceive their parents rearing them is in most cases not the way parents feel they raised their children. Also, the way children view their own character traits is not the same way the parents view it in most cases.

title: The Father Role as Seen by a Group of College Student Fathers
Creators: name: Luke, DeVona Alice Dean
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1968

description: Some literature implies the modern father has abdicated his place as head of the family, but little research has been done to examine the role of the father in the modern American family.
Intensive interviews of 18 college student men who each had at least two children showed that these men are very much concerned with fatherhood and participate actively in the rearing of their children. They feel the father has at least as much responsibility for the rearing of their children as the mother, possibly more. They are involved more in some dimensions of parenthood than others. Those fathers who have demanding responsibilities outside the home participate less in child care but are no less interested or concerned.
These families are quite democratic; most work out child care in an equalitarian manner. For the majority, however, the father remains the final authority.

description: The present work deals with determining the necessary parameters considering a three dimensional model to simulate in a realistic way the turning process on machine tool. This paper is dedicated to the study of the self-excited vibrations incidence on various major mechanics characteristics of the system workpiece / tool / material. The efforts (forces and moments) measurement using a six components dynamometer confirms the tool tip moments existence. The fundamental frequency of 190 Hz proves to be common to the tool tip point displacements, the action application point or at the torque exerted to the tool tip point. The confrontation of the results concerning displacements and efforts shows that the applications points of these elements evolve according to similar ellipses located in quasi identical planes. The large and the small axes of these ellipses are increasing with the feed rate motion values accordingly to the mechanical power injected into the system. Conversely, the respective axes ratios of these ellipses are decreasing functions of the feed rate while the ratio of these ratios remains constant when the feed rate value is increasing. In addition, some chip characteristics are given, like the thickness variations, the width or the hardening phenomenon.

description: The relationship between breadth of perspective, defined as the range of alternative solutions that one is able to bring to mind when presented with a problem, and selected aptitude and background factors was studied. Scholastic aptitude was the chosen aptitude factor. The background factors chosen were: (1) size of home town; (2) number of towns lived in; (3) number of children in the family of origin; (4) the subject ' s perception of his travel experience; (5) number of books read during the past year; and (6) number of friends of other nationalities. The sample consisted of 130 female students from five selected classes in the College of Family Life at Utah State University during the 1967 - 68 school year The instruments used were: (l) a background questionnaire; (2) scholastic aptitude, as measured by the students' ACT scores; and (3) Warshay's three unfamiliar problem situations . The statistical t es t used was the Independent x2 t es t of significance. No significant relationship was found between the number of alternatives perceived and scholastic aptitude, size of home town, number of towns lived in, number of children in the family of origin, or number of books read during the past year. Perception of alternatives was related to the subject's perception of his travel experience at the .05 level and to number of friends of other nationalities at the .10 level .

description: A descriptive study was made of the administrative provisions, teaching qualifications and characteristics, subjects and topics being taught, and resources used in teaching family life education in the high schools of Utah. "Some" family life education was being taught in 98 per cent of the high schools. Of these schools, 82 per cent were teaching it as a unit in a regular class varying widely from Home and Family Living to Livestock Management. viii Home Economics classes came closest to teaching family life education as it was defined in this study; however, these classes were made up almost entirely of girl students. The training received by most family life teachers was not explicitly in family life education, resulting in a segmentalized exposure regarding the whole of family life education. Only 30.7 per cent of the family life teachers were using a family life textbook.
Understanding the sub-critical transition to turbulence in wall flows
Creators: name: Manneville, Paul
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Contrasting with free shear flows presenting velocity profiles with inflection points which cascade to turbulence in a relatively mild way, wall bounded flows are deprived of (inertial) instability modes at low Reynolds numbers and become turbulent in a much wilder way, most often marked by the coexistence of laminar and turbulent domains at intermediate Reynolds numbers, well below the range where (viscous) instabilities can show up. There can even be no unstable mode at all, as for plane Couette flow (pCf) or for Poiseuille pipe flow (Ppf) that currently are the subject of intense research. Though the mechanisms involved in the transition to turbulence in wall flows are now better understood, statistical properties of the transition itself are yet unsatisfactorily assessed. A review of the situation is given. An alternative to the temporal theory of the transition to turbulence in terms of chaotic transients in such globally subcritical flows is proposed, which invokes spatio-temporal intermittence and the theory of first order (thermodynamic) phase transitions.

description: The study of frustration has been of interest to various people including psychiatrists, psychologists, and educators for a number of years. These people have been interested in frustration because the complexity of our modern life has involved so many frustrating experiences. Frustration has been defined by Dollard (8, p. 7) as "an interference with the occurrence of an instigated goal response at its proper time." Ruch (21, p. 151) defined frustration as "the denial or thwarting by some obstacle which lies between a need and its goal . " These two definitions are in essence identical. The average person has many obstacles which block or thwart his goals daily. Some of these may be insignificant such as missing a bus, while others may be of utmost importance such as losing a job. Missing a bus may be annoying but it may be corrected by catching a later bus. Losing a job may be a very threatening experience which might affect a person's whole attitude toward life.

description: The photocurrent in an optically active metal is known to contain a component that switches sign with the helicity of the incident radiation. At low frequencies, this current depends on the orbital Berry phase of the Bloch electrons via the "anomalous velocity" of Karplus and Luttinger. We consider quantum wells in which the parent material, such as GaAs, is not optically active and the relevant Berry phase only arises as a result of quantum confinement. Using an envelope approximation that is supported by numerical tight-binding results, it is shown that the Berry phase contribution is determined for realistic wells by a cubic Berry phase intrinsic to the bulk material, the well width, and the well direction. These results for the magnitude of the Berry-phase effect suggest that it may already have been observed in quantum well experiments.

title: Comparative Marital Adjustment of a Selected Sample of Active and Inactive L.D.S. Church Members
Creators: name: Winward, Paul K.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1962

description: This thesis is a study dealing with active and inactive L.D.S. couples and their comparative Marital adjustment. The couples were selected from the geographic areas of Enterprise and Logan, Utah, and Preston, Idaho. Respondents consisted of couples who had at least one child, but no children beyond high school age. Their religiosity was determined by the bishop of the L.D.S. Ward of which they were a member. The bishop considered such factors as attendance at regularly scheduled church meetings and contributions made in the form of tithes in determining whether a couple was considered active or inactive. The sample consisted of 40 active couples and 20 inactive couples.
Hypotheses tested in this study were (1) L.D.S. couples who are active in church activities have a higher degree of marital adjustment than those couples who are inactive. (2) L.D.S. couples who are active will rate their marriages as happier on the continuum scale of happiness than will couples who are inactive. (3) Church activity of the part of both husband and wife contributes to the rapport and marital success of the couple. (4) Couples who are least active will be less likely to participate in the study; therefore their marriage adjustment may not be discovered.
In testing the hypotheses subjects were given a modified marital adjustment inventory used by Locke, plus questions pertaining to church activity and a set of background questions. The questionnaires were given directly to the subjects by the investigator or were sent by mail to subjects with a letter of instructions.
Findings of this study appeared to indicate that active couples had a better marital adjustment. Adjustment scores for active couples ranged from a low of 71 to a high of 123 with an arithmetic mean of 107.80. Adjustment scores for inactive couples ranged from a low of 60 to a high of 121 with an arithmetic mean of 99.15. A "t" ratio of 3.86 was obtained, which is significant at the level of .01 level of significance.
It is to be noted that when adjustment scores of active husbands were compared with inactive, the difference was not so significant. It only approached significance at the .05 level of significance; still active husbands had somewhat higher adjustment scores the arithmetic mean of active husbands was 108.45 compared with 100.95 which was the arithmetic mean for inactive husbands.
The difference between active and inactive wives was more significant. Active wives had an arithmetic mean of 107.15 as compared with 97.35 for the inactive. This difference approached significance at the .01 level of significance.
A conclusion of the study is, church activity appears to be a factor contributing to the happiness of the couples and to the adjustments of their marriages.

description: DAFNE is a special kind of accelerator dedicated to the production of F-particles coming from the annihilation of electrons and positrons at the F-resonance energy. However, due to the very large circulating current, DAFNE represents also a high flux source of synchrotron radiation in the infrared and soft X-ray wavelength region. In this paper the main characteristics of synchrotron radiation from DAFNE's wigglers and dipole magnets are estimated for the parasitic regime of operation. The results of calculations for KLOE and DEAR lattices have been compared.
Canonical variables for steep planar water waves over nonuniform bed

description: An explicit expression in terms of canonical variables is obtained for the Hamiltonian functional determining the fully nonlinear dynamics of two-dimensional potential flows of an ideal fluid with a free surface over an arbitrary nonuniform depth. The canonically conjugate variables are derived from the previously developed non-canonical conformal description of water waves over a strongly undulating bottom [V. P. Ruban, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 70}, 066302 (2004)]. Also an alternative approach to the problem is discussed, which gives weakly nonlinear Hamiltonian models of different orders.

title: Evaluation of the Impact of Federal Participation on the Distribution of Economic Activity and Population in the State of Utah
Creators: name: Taqieddin, Nureddin A.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1973

description: Since World War I, the federal government of the U.S. has played an increasingly important role in social and economic functions of the American society. Whether by direct employment or through indirect payments to private and public parties, federal programs have an unquestionable impact on the distribution of economic activity among various regions of the U.S. This impact varies directly with the relative magnitude of federal participation in total economic activity of any region.
In certain areas, federal employment reflects the greatest portion of total federal activity. Where this is true, the impact of federal employment on the distribution of economic activity has a concomitant impact on the distribution of population, derived from the association between jobs and people. Hence, the impact of federal participation on the distribution of population can be investigated in the light of the federal impact on economic activity through employment.
Population distribution, however, might be influenced, in addition to employment, by other variables whose magnitudes are to some extent determined by federal participation. Such variables, therefore, should also be considered when federal impact on population distribution is under investigation. Both types of variables are considered in this study.
Federal expenditures in any region are considered in this inquiry as external injections into the economy of that region. To the extent that these expenditures are matched by local tax payments to federal government this is not a correct presumption. To the extent that the federal government is free to use local tax payments in any region of the country, on the other hand, this contention is plausible.

description: A hybrid lattice-statistical model of doubly decorated two-dimensional lattices, which have localized Ising spins at its nodal sites and itinerant electrons delocalized over decorating sites, is exactly solved with the help of a generalized decoration-iteration transformation. Under the assumption of a quarter filling of each couple of the decorating sites, the ground state constitutes either spontaneously long-range ordered ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic phase in dependence on whether the ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic interaction between the localized Ising spins and itinerant electrons is considered. The critical temperature of the spontaneously long-range ordered phases monotonically increases upon strengthening the ratio between the kinetic term and the Ising-type exchange interaction.

An analogue computer study of the Townsend and linear Z-pinch gas discharges
Creators: name: Gallaher, Donald Frederick McGeer
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This thesis describes a study of gas discharges employing analogue computing techniques. Two discharges are examined: The extensively documented Townsend discharge and the recently investigated linear z-pinch discharge of plasma physics. The Townsend discharge theory is presented, with theoretical and experimental results given for the gas ionization coefficients ∝, ɤ and the attachment coefficient ƞ. Simulation of the general Townsend equation including ∝, ɤ and ƞ is described and an error analysis is given. Computer ionization curves are generated from experimental values of ∝, ɤ and ƞ in three common gases and compared with corresponding experimental ionization curves. Townsend’s empirical equation for ∝is used to extend ionization curves to relatively large values of E/p. Theoretical formulae are presented for the primary ionization coefficient in neon-argon gas mixtures. The z-pinch discharge in the case of infinite plasma conductivity is discussed and the snowplow equation for the time variation of the plasma tube radius is derived. An analogue simulator for the snowplow equation is presented and an error analysis given. Analogue computer radial collapse curves are generated for argon and nitrogen and comparisons are made between analogue, digital computer and experimental collapse curves. It is concluded that the analogue computer is well suited to the solution of problems involving the Townsend and z-pinch discharges. The possibility of treating magnetohydrodynamic power generation by analogue methods is mentioned.

title: The Selection of Superior Alfalfa Varieties for Utah Conditions
Creators: name: Taylor, Richard M.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1959

description: Alfalfa plays an important part in Utah's Economy. It is the major forage crop and occupies approximately 40 percent of all irrigated land in the state
During the past most of the alfalfa varietal trials have been conducted in Cache Valley, which is not representative of conditions found throughout Utah. In fact, it would be impossible to select any one location for conducting tests where all insect, disease, and climatic conditions would be represented. In view of this it was felt that an attempt should be made to conduct varietal trials at several locations to permit the selection of varieties which would produce higher yields of quality forage.
