177 Johnson, Bob L.Where have all the flowers gone? reconnecting leadership preparation with the field of organization theoryGiven the importance of organization theory to our field and the increased absence of a substantive organizational perspective in our dialogue, this essay argues that it is time to revisit how we conceptualize and package the organization theory component of our leadership preparation programs. A j...Organization theory; Leadership preparation2004
178 Miller, Joel StevenZero field splitting, field-dependent magnetization of mixed-valent S = 3/2 Diruthenium(II,III) tetracarboxylatesThe 2 K field-dependent magnetization, M(H), of S = 3/2 [RunII/III2(OAc)4]+ was studied. [RuII/III 2(OAc)4]+ exhibits an unusually low magnetization with respect to that predicted by the classical Brillouin function. This reduced value is a consequence of the large anisotropy arising from the large ...Spin; Coupling; Expressions2004

The main emphasis in this work has been on the correlation of microstructu...ZnO; Cobalt2004
180 Bedrov, Dmitro; Smith, Grant D.Anomalous pressure dependence of the structure factor in 1,4-polybutadiene melts: a molecular dynamics simulation studyNeutron scattering has shown the first diffraction peak in the structure factor of a 1,4-polybutadiene melt under compression to move to larger q values as expected but to decrease significantly in intensity. Simulations reveal that this behavior does not result from loss of structure in the polymer...Polymer melts; 1, 4-polybutadiene melts; Pressure; Structure factor2004-07
181 Varner, Michael W.Asthma during pregnancyOBJECTIVE: To determine neonatal and maternal outcomes stratified by asthma severity during pregnancy by using the 1993 National Asthma Education Program Working Group on Asthma and Pregnancy definitions of asthma severity.

182 Gondolo, PaoloCan WIMP spin dependent couplings explain DAMA data, in light of null results from other experiments?We examine whether the annual modulation found by the DAMA dark matter experiment can be explained by Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), in light of new null results from other experiments. CDMS II has already ruled out most WIMP-nucleus spin-independent couplings as an explanation for DA...WIMP; Weakly interacting massive particles; DAMA; CDMS II; Parameter space2004-12

186 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
187 Liu, FengCoulomb sink: a novel Coulomb effect on coarsening of metal nanoclusters on semiconductor surfacesWe propose the concept of a ‘‘Coulomb sink'' to elucidate the effect of Coulomb charging on coarsening of metal mesas grown on semiconductor surfaces.We show that a charged mesa, due to its reduced chemical potential, acts as a Coulomb sink and grows at the expense of neighboring neutral mesas. ...Coulomb sink; Coulomb effect; Metal nanoclusters; Semiconductor surface; Pb mesas2004-09
188 Furse, Cynthia M.Design of implantable microstrip antenna for communication with medical implantsThe objective of this paper is to design a microstrip patch antenna for communication with medical implants in the 402-405-MHz Medical Implant Communications Services band.

189 Gondolo, PaoloDetectability of the Sgr dwarf leading tidal stream with Auger, EUSO, or OWLWe point out that if heavy metastable particles composing the dark matter of our galaxy are responsible for the ultrahigh energy cosmic rays (UHECR) then the leading tidal stream of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy could be detected through UHECR. The signal would be an anisotropy in the UHECR flux sma...Sagittarius dwarf galaxy; Sgr stream; anisotropy2004-07
190 Sokolsky, PierreEffect of clouds on apertures of space-based air fluorescence detectorsSpace-based ultra-high-energy cosmic ray detectors observe fluorescence light from extensive air showers produced by these particles in the troposphere. Clouds can scatter and absorb this light and produce systematic errors in energy determination and spectrum normalization.

195 DeTar, CarletonExcited states in staggered meson propagatorsWe report on preliminary results from multi-particle fits to meson propagators with three flavors of light dynamical quarks. We are able to measure excited states in propagators with pion quantum numbers, which we interpret as the pion 2S state, and argue is evidence of locality of the action.

196 Lupton, John MarkExperimental evidence for exciton scaling effects in self-assembled molecular wiresResonant Rayleigh scattering from self-assembled one-dimensional molecular J-aggregate wires reveals a distinct dependence of the exciton energy on the width of lateral extension. For the J aggregates used in this study, strong in-line dipole coupling leads to a delocalization of the exciton wave fu...Exciton scaling effects; Molecular wires; J-aggregate wires; Quantum wires2004-12

199 Liu, FengGeometric constant defining shape transitions of carbon nanotubes under pressureWe demonstrate that when a single-walled carbon nanotube is under pressure it undergoes a series of shape transitions, first transforming from a circle to an oval and then from an oval to a peanut. Most remarkably, the ratio of the area of the tube cross sections at the second transition over that ...Geometric constant; Shape transitions; Carbon nanotubes; Pressure2004-03
