1Olson, Randall J.; Samore, Matthew H.; Pace, Nathan L.Dysphotopsia in phakic and pseudophakic patients: incidence and relation to intraocular lens type(2)PURPOSE: To determine the relationship between various intraocular lens (IOL) types and the incidence of unwanted light images. SETTING: The Moran Eye Center, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. METHODS: A telephone questionnaire was administered to 302 postoperative patients who had rece...Cataract Extraction; Visual Acuity; Lenses, Intraocular; Lens Implantation, Intraocular2000-06
2Sokolsky, PierreEnergy estimation of UHE cosmic rays using the atmospheric fluorescence techniqueWe use the CORSIKA air shower simulation program to review the method for assigning energies to ultra-high energy (UHE) cosmic rays viewed with the air fluorescence technique. This technique uses the atmosphere as a calorimeter, and we determine the corrections that must be made to the calorimetric ...Fluorescence; Energy estimation; Ultra-high energy cosmic rays2000-08
3DeTar, CarletonFirst signs for string breaking in two-flavor QCDWe have been examining the phenomenon of string breaking in QCD with two flavors of dynamical staggered quarks. We construct a transfer matrix from a combination of "string" and "two-meson" channels. Preliminary results with low statistics show the expected signs of string breaking.String breaking; Wilson loop; Staggered quarks2000-04
4DeTar, CarletonHeavy-light decay constants with dynamical gauge configurations and Wilson or improved valence quark actionsWe describe a calculation of heavy-light decay constants including virtual quark loop effects. We have generated dynamical gauge configurations at three _x000C_ values using two flavors of Kogut-Susskind quarks with a range of masses. These are analyzed with a Wilson valence quark action. Prelimin...Decay constants; Kogut-Susskind quarks; Wilson quarks; Fat-clover valence quarks2000-04
5Olson, Randall J.; Pingree, Michael F.; Lundergan, Maureen K.Penetrating keratoplasty for keratoconus: a long-term review of results and complicationsPURPOSE: To study the long-term complications of penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) to evaluate current recommendations to patients with keratoconus. SETTING: John Moran Eye Center, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. METHODS: Retrospective study of all PKP procedures for keratoconus performe...Visual Acuity; Refraction, Ocular; Keratoconus; Astigmatism2000-07
6Olson, Randall J.; Mamalis, Nick; Spencer, Terrence S.Postoperative sterile endophthalmitis (TASS) associated with the memorylensPURPOSE: To report 10 cases of delayed-onset acute intraocular inflammation following cataract extraction and posterior chamber implantation of the MemoryLens(R) intraocular lens (IOL). SETTING: John A. Moran Eye Center, Department of Ophthalmology, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. MET...Memory Lens; Toxic Anterior Segment Syndrome; Retrospective Studies; adverse effects2000-12
7DeTar, CarletonSemileptonic decays of heavy mesons with the fat clover actionWe are studying a variety of semileptonic decays of heavy-light mesons in an effort to improve the determination of the heavy-quark Standard-Model CKM matrix elements. Our fermion action is a novel, improved "fat" clover action that promises to reduce problems with exceptional configurations. Dynami...Semileptonic decay; Decay constants; Staggered quarks; Fat-clover valence quarks2000-04
8Olson, Randall J.Update on a long-term, prospective study of capsulotomy and retinal detachment rates after cataract surgeryPURPOSE: To evaluate the retinal detachment risks and neodymium:YAG (Nd:YAG) capsulotomy rates associated with different cataract approaches and intraocular lens (IOL) styles in a long-term,prospective clinical study. SETTING: Clinical practice of 1 ophthalmologist, Fort Collins, Colorado, USA. METH...Cataract Extraction; Laser Therapy; Retinal Detachment; Risk Factors2000-07
9Olson, Randall J.Wound complications associated with incision enlargement for foldable intraocular lens implantation during cataract surgeryPURPOSE: To determine the relationship between various intraocular lens (IOL) types and the incidence of unwanted light images. SETTING: The Moran Eye Center, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. METHODS: A telephone questionnaire was administered to 302 postoperative patients who had rece...Cararact Surgery; Incision Enlargement; Wound Complications; Vision Disorders2000-06
