Stylistic Characteristics of Randall Thompson's Choral Music
Randall Thompson's choral music, widely performed by professional groups, colleges, and choirs from public schools, establishes this composer as one of the foremost in contemporary music. In view of such popularity, it would seem that choral directors should more fully acquaint themselves with some …

Recent Progress in Quantum Gravity: Karch-Randall Braneworld, Entanglement Islands and Graviton Mass
… Then we point out that the physics of the Karch-Randall braneworld motivates us to formulate a conjecture that, at the fine grained level, a large class of entanglement islands can exist only in massive gravity theories. We provide evidence supporting our conjecture by showing the absence of …

Seasonal Variation in Sampling Indices for Fish Populations Collected From the Missouri River Below Fort Randall Dam, South Dakota
… riverine fishes in the Missouri River below Fort Randall Dam. Fishery biologists working in similar lotic environments must consider seasonal changes in sampling data when making population and community assessments.

Randall, or The Painted Grape and Beyond Ekphrasis: The Role and Function of Artworks in the Novels of Don DeLillo
… is presented in two sections: firstly, a novel, Randall, or The Painted Grape; and secondly, an essay, ‘Beyond Ekphrasis: The Role and Function of Artworks in the Novels of Don DeLillo’. Randall, or The Painted Grape is a novel about the Young British Artists. It takes the form of a fictitious …

Sampling Techniques for Juvenile Pallid Sturgeon and the Condition and Food Habits of Sturgeon in the Missouri River Below Fort Randall Dam, South Dakota
… habitats of the Missouri River below Fort Randall Dam, South Dakota from April to November in 2003 and 2004. Passive integrated transponder (PIT), elastomer, or a dangler tag identified all pallid sturgeon captured as HRJPS. I captured 18 HRJPS in a total of 300 overnight gill net sets, 37 …

Macroinvertebrate Composition and Patterns of Prey Use By Juvenile Pallid Sturgeon (Scaphirhynchus albus) in the Missouri River, South Dakota, and Nebraska
… from the Missouri River downstream of Fort Randall and Gavins Point dams to evaluate spatial and temporal patterns in abundance and describe habitats important for macroinvertebrates. The most abundant families collected were Chironomidae, Ceratopogonidae, Isonychiidae, Baetidae, Caenidae, …

Search for Excited Randall-Sundrum Gravitons with Semi-Leptonic Diboson Final States in 4.7 fb-1 of Proton-Proton Collisions using the ATLAS Detector at the Large Hadron Collider
… extra-dimension production modes: the original Randall-Sundrum (RS1) model and the more recent "bulk" Randal-Sundrum (Bulk RS) model. The mass range for both models is excluded at 95% CL with a lower mass limit for an RS1 graviton of 936 GeV and 714 GeV for the Bulk RS graviton.

Search for gravitons using merged jets from Z boson decays with the ATLAS experiment
… mass of a resonance are set using the original Randall-Sundrum (RS1) model as a benchmark. The observed (expected) lower limit on the mass of an excited graviton decaying to ZZ is 870 (950) GeV at 95% confidence level. Limits are also set on a more recent version of the Randall-Sundrum model …

A Search For New Physics Using tt(bar) Resonances in the Lepton Plus Jets Channel at √(s) = 8 TeV in 20 fb⁻¹ of pp Collision Data at the ATLAS Experiment
… including the leptophobic topcolor Z', the Randall-Sundrum Kaluza-Klein gluon (gKK), the Randall-Sundrum Kaluza-Klein graviton (GKK) and a spin-0 scalar particle.

Search for Diboson resonances in 8 tev and 13 tev proton-proton collisions at the large hadron collider with the atlas detector
… a heavy vector-boson triplet (V ′), and a bulk Randall-Sundrum model with a heavy spin-2 graviton (G∗). Neither of these searches found evidence of any resonance, and exclusion limits are set on σ(pp → V ′) and σ(pp → G∗). For the 2012 ATLAS data, searches are performed for the G∗ and the W′. …

Influence of nutrients on the biological phosphorus removal process at high acetate concentrations
… It was an extension of studies conducted by Randall and Chapin (1994), who found that industrial wastewater with high concentrations of acetate were able to inhibit the biological phosphorus removal process. Two bench-scale pilot plants were operated under controlled conditions that included …

Modeling Spatial Distribution and Habitat Associations for Juvenile Pallid Sturgeon (Scaphirhynchus albus) in the Missouri River
… reach of the Missouri River downstream of Fort Randall Dam, South Dakota and Nebraska annually since 2003 to evaluate the pallid sturgeon population. This river reach is unique in that it has riverine, depositional delta, and reservoir habitats. Although data on catch rates and capture locations …

Measurement of the Top Quark-Antitop Quark Differential Cross Section, dsigma/dM(tt), in Proton-Antiproton Collisions at Center of Mass Energy = 1.96 TEV
… I set limits on the ratio kappa/M Pl in the Randall-Sundrum model by looking for Kaluza Klein gravitons which decay to top quarks. I find kappa/MPl > 0.16 at the 95% confidence level.

Re-Establishing Bald Eagle and Osprey Breeding Populations in South Dakota Through Hacking: A Feasibility Study
… River in southeastern South Dakota below Fort Randall and Gavins Point Dams. However, a bald eagle hacking program in this area was considered unwarranted because bald eagles will likely occupy suitable nesting habitat through natural expansion in the near future. Hacking ospreys in conjunction …
