Spin Structure Functions of the Deuteron Measured with CLAS in and Above the Resonance Region
… continue to be of high current interest. The first moment of the spin structure function <em>g</em><sub>1</sub>, Γ<sub>1</sub>, goes through a rapid transition from the photon point (<em>Q</em><sup>2</sup> = 0), where it is constrained by the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum rule, to the deep …

Reciprocity of Sight: The Rhetorics of Contestation and Commemoration on the National Mall
… commemoration. The dissertation takes up three moments in the history of the National Mall when negotiation about contestation and commemoration manifested as public conversations about the meaning of the National Mall. The first moment is the Senate Park Commission's Plan of 1900 and 1901, also …

Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis of Weighted Ergodic Theorems
… are about stationary sequences with finite first moment. In this spirit, we get some positive new results on the almost everywhere convergence of weighted one-sided series in L1. Also, we prove a best possible result for weighted series of integrable i.i.d.'s with random weights.

A liberdade de Foucault no interior de suas fronteiras
… able to carry out practices of freedom. In the first moment, the notion of power and its consequences in disciplinary power and biopower were analysed in order to understand how the device of sexuality was appropriated by Christian pastoral power in the constitution of the modern subject and how …

The effect of applied uniaxial stresses on the optical absorption of F centers in alkali halides
The method of moments is used to analyze the effect of applied uniaxial stresses on the optical absorption of alkali halides containing F centers. By measuring the first moment change of the F band due to uniaxial stresses applied in (100) and (1l0) directions,' the coupling of the F center excited …

Transatlantic transactions: writing hispanism at the centennial of 1892
… in Spain in 1892. These celebrations became the first moment after the independence of continental Latin America in which intellectuals from both sides of the Atlantic revisited their common history and articulated a transatlantic Hispanic identity based on shared language, race and “spirit.” …

Spin Structure of the Deuteron
… The results on <em>A</em>1,<em>g</em>1 and the first moment<sub> Γ 1/1</sub> as well as the higher moments<sub> Γ 3/1</sub> and <sub>Γ5/1</sub>, using the entire data set for the deuteron, are presented in this thesis. The moments are compared to theoretical and phenomenological calculations. In …

Topics in Macro Finance
… macro drivers of both risky asset returns (the first moment) and volatility (the second moment) are studied and analyzed in detail across different geographies and various time periods. The use of both long sample sets and relevant sub-sample periods allows for a more in-depth assessment of the …

Adsorption of oxygen molecules on platinum surfaces modified with subsurface atoms of vanadium : a DFT study
… and the consequences for O2 adsorption. The first moment of the d-band of platinum alloy DOS was used to represent the d-band centre. The d-band centre of Pt-PDOS became lower as a result of hybridisation between platinum and vanadium. The d-band centre of a pure platinum surface with respect …

Charge Collection Studies on Integrated Circuit Test Structures using Heavy-Ion Microbeams and MEDICI Simulation Calculations
… new technique, Diffusion Time Resolved IBICC, is first proposed in this work to measure the average arrival time of the diffused charge, which can be related to the first moment (or the average time) of the arrival carrier density at the junction. A 2D device simulation tool, the MEDICI code, and …

Quasi-coherent structures in the marine atmospheric boundary layer
… wall region lifts away from the wall, slowly at first, and then rapidly moves away from the wall as it convects downstream where it becomes unstable and breaks up violently upon interaction with the outer flow. This ejection of low speed fluid into the mean flow is responsible for locally high …

Measurement of the Spin Structure Function GD1 of the Deuteron and Its Moments at Low Q2
… (1.08 GeV < <em>W</em> < 2.0 GeV) at very low momentum transfers (<em>Q</em><sup>2</sup> for the deuteron was as low as 0.02 GeV<sup>2</sup>). These measurements on the deuteron were used to extract the deuteron's spin structure function <em>g</em>1 as well as the product <em>A</em>1<em>F</em>1 …

Towards Dynamic Vehicular Clouds
… empirical data, she may be able to estimate the first moments of these random variables. Yet, getting a handle on the expected job completion time is a very important problem that must be addressed. With this in mind, another contribution of this thesis is to offer easy-to-compute approximations …
