1401 Miller, Jan D.Cone beam X-ray microtomography - a new facility for three-dimensional analysis of multiphase materialsAs the techniques and resolution for three-dimensional spatial analysis have advanced in the last decade, it is now possible to map in detail the micro structure of multiphase materials in three-dimensional digital space. In this regard, three-dimensional X-ray microtomography offers a unique imagin...Cone beam X-ray microtomography; Three-dimensional analysis; Material characterization2002
1402 Nichols, ShaunConfabulation, confidence, and introspectionCarruthers' arguments depend on a tenuous interpretation of cases from the confabulation literature. Specifically, Carruthers maintains that cases of confabulation are "subjectively indistinguishable" from cases of alleged introspection. However, in typical cases of confabulation, the self-attributi...Confabulation; Carruthers2009-04
1403 Landesman, Bruce M.Confidentiality and the lawyer-client relationshipThe Model Rules of Professional Conduct proposed by the American Bar Association differ from the presently enforced Code of Professional Responsibility in a number of ways.

1404 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineConfined and delocalized polarons in ∏-conjugated oligomers and polymers: a study of the effective conjugation lengthWe studied optical absorption of polarons in ∏-conjugated oligomers and polymers using the photoinduced absorption technique as well as chemical doping spectra from the literature. We find that the photon energy of the polaron low-energy transition obeys a relationship that depends only on the oli...Confined polarons; Delocalized polarons; pi-conjugated oligomers; pi-conjugated polymers; Effective conjugation length2004-06
1405 Liu, FengConfining P diffusion in Si by an As-doped barrier layerThe miniaturization of Si-based devices requires control of doping profile, which makes the understanding of dopant interaction and diffusion in Si critical. The authors have studied the effect of As doping on P diffusion in Si using first-principles calculations. The authors found a form of As-vaca...P diffusion; Silicon; Arsenic doping; As-doped barrier; Diffusion control2007
1406 Couldwell, William T.Conflict and opportunity: neurosurgery and industryThe relationship between neurosurgery and industry is multifaceted.

1409 Miller, Jan D.Conformation of chemisorbed oleate at a calcite surfaceThe surface chemistry of the calcite/oleate flotation system was examined by in situ FT-NIR/IRS. Spectra of combination and overtone bands of aliphatic stretching vibrations revealed gauche/trans conformational changes that occurred solely as a function of temperature.

1410 Smith, Grant D.Conformational properties of poly(vinylidene fluoride). A quantum chemistry study of model compoundsThe molecular geometries and conformational energies of model molecules of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) have been determined from high-level quantum chemistry calculations and have been used in parametrization of a six-state rotational isomeric state (RIS) model for PVDF. The model molecules inv...Poly(vinylidene fluoride); PVDF; Conformational properties1999
1411 Blumenthal, Donald K.; Trewhella, JillConformationally dynamic C helix of the RIalpha subunit of protein kinase A mediates isoform-specific domain reorganization upon C subunit binding.Different isoforms of the full-length protein kinase A (PKA) regulatory subunit homodimer (R2) and the catalytic (C) subunit-bound holoenzyme (R2C2) have very different global structures despite similar molecular weights and domain organization within their primary sequences. To date, it has been th...Protein Isoforms; Global Structures; cAMP2005-10-21
1412 Pascucci, ValerioConforming Morse-Smale complexesMorse-Smale (MS) complexes have been gaining popularity as a tool for feature-driven data analysis and visualization. However, the quality of their geometric embedding and the sole dependence on the input scalar field data can limit their applicability when expressing application-dependent features....2014-01-01
1413 Digre, Kathleen B.; Mamalis, Nick; White, George L. Jr.Congenital anomalies of the optic nerve in one family.We present three cases of congenital optic disc anomalies in one family who underwent an extensive diagnostic workup to exclude any intracranial pathology. One patient had elevated optic nerve heads and was hospitalized for multiple diagnostic tests including a lumbar puncture and magnetic resonance...Optic Nerve; Congenital Anomalies1992-04-24
1414 Stevens, KennethCongruent weak conformanceCongruent weak conformance is a property between formal models capturing the desired relationship between a specification and its implementation by allowing unused and redundant circuitry and tolerating unspec4jied behavior in the unreachable state space. By providing greater flexibility in design t...2001
1415 DeTar, CarletonConjecture concerning the modes of excitation of the quark-gluon plasmaIt is a widely held belief that at temperatures much higher than the confinement scale of quantumchromodynamics (QCD), quarks and gluons become free, giving rise to a new form of matter, called the quark-gluon plasma. It is conjectured here that the characterization of the plasma as a free or weakl...Polyakov loops; Excitation1985-07
1416 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineConjugation-length dependence of spin-dependent excition formations rates in ∏-conjugated oligomers and polymersWe have measured the ratio, r =ơ s/ơT of the formation cross section, ơ of singlet and triplet excitons from polarons in ∏-conjugated oligomer and polymer films, using a spectroscopic technique we developed recently.

1425 Codding, BrianConservation or co-evolution? Intermediate levels of aboriginal burning and hunting have positive effects on kangaroo populations in Western AustraliaStudies of conservation in small scale societies typically portray indigenous peoples as either sustainably managing resources, or forsaking long-term sustainability for short-term gains. To explain this variability, we propose an alternative framework derived from a co-evolutionary perspective. In ...2014-01-01
