176 Saam, BrianWall relaxation of 3He in spin-exchange cellsThe 3He longitudinal spin-relaxation rate T1-1 is crucial for production of highly polarized 3He by spin-exchange optical pumping. We show that T1-1 is increased by a factor of 2-20 solely by exposure of spin-exchange cells to a few-kG magnetic field. The original T1-1 can be restored by degaussing ...Wall relaxation; Spin-exchange cells; 3He; Longitudinal spin-relaxation; Spin-exchange optical pumping; SEOP; Hyperpolarized 3He; Surface magnetism; Glass cells2001-09
177 Gondolo, PaoloWeakly interacting massive particle annual modulation with opposite phase in late-infall halo modelsWe show that in the late-infall model of our galactic halo of Sikivie the expected phase of the annual modulation of a weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) halo signal in direct detection experiments is opposite to the one usually expected. If a nonvirialized halo component due to the infall o...WIMP; Weakly interacting massive particles; Halo models; WIMP wind; Recoil energy2001-06
178 Hawkes, KristenWhy hunter-gatherers work: An ancient version of the problem of public goodsFrom the abstract: People who hunt and gather for a living share some resources more widely than others. A favored hypothesis to explain the differential sharing is that giving up portions of large, unpredictable resources obligates others to return shares of them later, reducing everyone's variance...Hunter-gatherer societies; Public goods2001-08
179 DeTar, CarletonZero temperature string breaking in lattice quantum chromodynamicsThe separation of a heavy quark and antiquark pair leads to the formation of a tube of flux, or ‘‘string,'' which should break in the presence of light quark-antiquark pairs. This expected zero-temperature phenomenon has proven elusive in simulations of lattice QCD. We study mixing between the ...String breaking; Wilson loop2001-09
180 DeTar, CarletonZero temperature string breaking with staggered quarksThe separation of a heavy quark and antiquark pair leads to the formation of a tube of flux, or "string", which should break in the presence of light quark-antiquark pairs. This expected zero-temperature phenomenon has proven elusive in simulations of lattice QCD. In an extension of work reported ...Flux tube; String breaking; Wilson loop; Staggered quarks2001-03
181 Mishchenko, EugeneZero-bias anomaly in disordered wiresWe calculate the low-energy tunneling density of states v(ε, T) of an N-channel disordered wire, taking into account the electron-electron interaction nonperturbatively. The finite scattering rate 1/r results in a crossover from the Luttinger liquid behavior at higher energies, v ∞ εa, to the ...Disordered wires; Luttinger liquid; Coulomb interaction2001-11
182 Miller, Jan D.A new cone beam X-ray microtomography facility for 3D analysis of multiphase materialsThree-dimensional x-ray microtomography offers a unique imaging capability. Spatial resolution on the order of ten microns can be achieved with the use of microfocus x-ray generators. Recently, a state-of-the-art, flexible cone beam x-ray microtomography system has been installed at the University o...2001-01-01

184 Harrison, Reid R.; Myers, Chris J.; Schlegel, ChristianAnalog decoding of product codesA design approach is presented for soft-decision decoding of block product codes ("block turbo codes") using analog computation with MOS devices. Application of analog decoding to large code sizes is also considered with the introduction of serial analog interfaces and pipeline schedules.2001-01-11
185 Regehr, JohnAugmented CPU reservations: towards predictable execution on general-purpose operating systemsOne problem with performing soft real-time computations on general-purpose operating systems is that these OSs may spend significant amounts of time in the kernel instead of performing work on behalf of the application that is nominally scheduled: the OS effectively steals time from the running appl...2001-01-01

189 Diamond, LisaContributions of psychophysiology to research on adult attachment: review and recommendationsDespite the increasing use of psychophysiological measures to investigate social and interpersonal phenomena, few studies of adult romantic attachment have taken advantage of this approach. In this article I argue for a biologically-specific, theory-based integration of psychophysiological measures ...Attachment; emotions; physiology2001-10-08
190 Furse, Cynthia M.; Cherkaev, Elena A.Cross-borehole delineation of a conductive ore deposit in a resistive host-experimental designThe finite-difference time-domain method is used for high-resolution full-wave analysis of cross-borehole electromagnetic surveys of buried nickel sulfide deposits. The method is validated against analytical methods for simple cases, but is shown to be a valuable tool for analysis of complicated ...Finite-difference time-domain; FDTD; Cross-borehole; Electromagnetic surveys; Nickel sulfide deposits; Conductive ores; Resistive host2001-01-01

192 Furse, Cynthia M.Down to the wireAs today's military and commercial aircraft age past their teen years, the many kilometers of wiring buried deep within their structures begin to crack and fray. Once thought to be rare and benign, such faults are found by the hundreds in a typical aircraft. Unlike obvious cracks in a wing or an e...Aging wiring; Wire fault location; Aging wire detection; Smart wire systems2001-01-01

198 Hawkes, KristenHunting and nuclear families: some lessons from the Hadza about men's workHadza hunter-gatherers display economic and social features usually assumed to indicate the dependence of wives and children on provisioning husbands and fathers.
