Electron Ionization and Excitation Coefficients for Argon, Krypton, and Xenon in the Low E/p Region and Kinetics of Interhalogen Diatomics
… for Ar, Kr, and Xe have been measured in the low E/p region (1-12 V/cm torr) using a drift-tube apparatus. Discrepancies between previous measurements have been resolved and shown to be due to photoelectric emission attributed to the rare gas metastables. Using this information a revised set …

Luminescent solar concentrator structures for solar energy harvesting and radiation control
… luminescent solar concentrators employ low-e thin films, which particularly, provide many benefits, including, (i) building overall aesthetic appearance, (ii) low glare and (iii) filtration of unwanted components of the incident sunlight thus increasing the energy saving rating of …

The architectural implications of passive solar cooling systems in hot-arid climates
… in the middle of the desert. The research follows two distinct but closely related paths. The first is the study and analysis of the passive and hybrid cooling systems and strategies under which the climatic conditions of Khartoum determines the type and size of each approach. The second stage …

Comparison of energy consumption with regard to type and percentage of glazing, location and orientation in classroom spaces
… (north and south), type of glazing (double pane, low e and special glazing), glazing percentage of the total wall area (base taken with reference to the required daylight factor) and classroom with and without clerestory windows.

Quartz Crystal Microbalance Studies of Dimethyl Methylphosphonate Sorption Into Trisilanolphenyl-Poss Films
… were stable for several weeks, DMMP is found to slowly desorb from the TPP films at room temperature and pressure. Upon application of vacuum to the DMMP-saturated films, DMMP follows first-order desorption kinetics and readily desorbs from the film, returning the TPP film to its original state. …

New Methodologies to Generate, Conserve, and Predict, Renewable Energy Output for Season Extension of Warm and Cool Season Vegetable Crops
… season extension. Treatments consisted of a low tunnel heated by a solar-powered electrical strip placed under a water tube, a low tunnel heated by a passively heated water tube, a low tunnel heated by an earth-to-air heat-exchange tube, a traditional low tunnel, and a control unprotected …

An Investigation of the Singlet Delta Oxygen and Ozone Yields From the Pulsed Radiolysis of Oxygen and Oxygen-Noble Gas Mixtures
… discussed in this thesis were performed with a flowing gas apparatus coupled to the University of Illinois TRIGA reactor. The detectors ((lamda) = 1.27 microns, 634 nanometers) were calibrated with a novel NO(,2) titration scheme and the absorbed dose was estimated from the ozone concentrations …

Investigating the use of Raman spectroscopy as a histopathological tool to identify metastatic brain tumours and their sites of origin
… paraffin after dewaxing, whereas specimens on Low-E substrates did not. Through data examination, the 721 cm-1 and 782 cm-1 peaks were identified as being the most distinct peaks for discriminating between glioblastoma multiforme, metastatic and normal brain tissue spectra. A ratio score plot …

Developing SINrep5 as a Viral Vector Platform to Test SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Candidates
… its unique protein expression abilities. A workflow was developed to use SINrep5 as an expression platform for SARS-CoV-2 proteins of interest—Nucleocapsid-N, Envelope-E, and Membrane-M. The N gene was subcloned into a mammalian SINrep5 plasmid (pmSINrep5) to test the vector’s protein expression …

The role of cancer stem cells in osteosarcoma
… the cell lines. All cell lines when plated at low density could recapitulate the colony hierarchies based on variation in colony morphology (holoclones, meroclones and paraclones), this was originally observed in carcinoma cell lines and is further putative evidence a CSC hierarchy exists …

Diagnostic Neuropathology of Brain Tumours using Biophotonics and Spectrometry
… embedded (FFPE) were processed and mounted on low-E slides, dewaxed using Xylene, washed with alcohol and water before storage at room temperature until analysis. Raman and ATR-FTIR were able to separate U87MG, SVGP12 and 1321N1 with very high classification accuracy. All the brain tumour …

Synthesis, characterization and chemical vapor deposition of transition metal di(tert-butyl)amido compounds
… for synthesizing transition metal compounds with low coordination numbers; such compounds may exhibit interesting structural, physical, and chemical properties. Di(tert-butyl)amido complexes of transition metals are expected to exhibit high volatilities and low decomposition temperatures, thus …

Assessment of thermal mass property for energy efficiency and thermal comfort in concrete office buildings
… wall assemblies and glazing, especially with low-e coating can be combined with thermal mass to study the benefit from other energy saving recommendations in conjunction with thermal mass. In terms LCC, for instance, besides the cost of concrete materials, assembly, maintenance and demolition …
