Classical hydrodynamics of Calogero-Sutherland models
The Calogero Sutherland model is system of particle moving on a line and interacting with long-range forces. In this thesis we consider the classical case where the particles may or may not possess a spin degree of freedom. We demonstrate the intimate connection between the Calogero-Sutherland …

Petrology of the Sutherland Commonage melilitite intrusives
The petrology of the Sutherland Commonage olivine melilitite intrusives have been investigated using petrographic and chemical methods. The occurrence consists of a ring dyke which surrounds a centrally located sill complex. The rock of the ring dyke is a typical melilitite which consists of …

Kunstdiva versus Stimmediva Callas and Sutherland in Bellini’s Norma
… of the twentieth century, Maria Callas and Joan Sutherland. Callas’s performance of Norma is universally recognised as a watershed in the performance history of this role, and Sutherland is widely regarded as her most important immediate successor. Their distinct approaches to the scena from Act …

Spherical Functions on Supersymmetric Spaces and Calogero-Moser-Sutherland Operators
… equation is known as the Calogero-Moser-Sutherland operator (CMS), and it occurs as the Hamiltonian of the quantum 𝑛-body problem in one dimension. Our main result in this context, which extends Sergeev's earlier work, is that for the three families of supersymmetric spaces described …

Geological and geochemical aspects of the Loch Loyal Alkaline Complex, Sutherland
… granitoids. Tho other alkaline intrusions in Sutherland, Loch Ailsh and Loch Borralan, were found to differ in trace-element chemistry from each other and from the Loch Loyal syenites. Even so a general alkaline petrographic province is postulated for the N.W. Highlands which persisted from …

Edward Alexander Sutherland and the Seventh-day Adventist Educational Reform: the Denominational Years
<p>Problem. Edward Alexander Sutherland, 1865-1955, was one of the most notable and successful educational reformers of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. He served the church for sixty years, fifty-three of them as president of four Adventist colleges. This study has been delimited to his years of …

Reconstructing the creative life of Australian composer Margaret Sutherland: the evidence of primary source documents
Margaret Ada Sutherland (1897-1984) is respected as one of the leading musicians in Australia in the twentieth century. She is widely recognised as having made significant contributions to the development of Australian musical composition and contemporary creative life. While a significant body of …

The geochemistry and petrogenesis of the Saltpeterkop carbonatite complex near Sutherland, Northern Cape, South Africa
… feature located approximately 20 km southeast of Sutherland in the Northern Cape. It is unusual among southern African carbonatite complexes in that it has not been deeply eroded, and retains a significant vestige of its original volcanic features. The main geologic expression of the Complex is a …

A Rogerian case study seeking the future of VR responding to Dr. Sutherland's ultimate display.
Throughout this thesis I will measure the progress of virtual reality (VR) development. I cover the history of the format starting with pre-film technology all the way through the commercial failure of the Virtual Boy. From here I address the development boom of the 2000s that resulted in the first …

Megacryst suite from the Salpeterkop carbonatite complex, Sutherland, Northern Cape, South Africa: an in-depth geochemical study
Presented here are major and trace element, stable (oxygen and hydrogen) and radiogenic (Sr-Nd-Pb) isotope analyses for a Cr-poor megacryst suite from the Salpeterkop complex, South Africa. The clinopyroxene, amphibole, phlogopite and ilmenite megacrysts all appear to be cogenetic, and based on …

Characterization of the atmospheric turbulence at the Sutherland site and conceptual design study and optimization of an Adaptive Optics system for the Southern African Large Telescope
… for SALT, a site monitoring campaign of the Sutherland site was initiated in 2010. This campaign also led to the participation in the development of a new instrument to characterize the atmospheric turbulence. The results from five years of site testing were used in AO simulations in order to …

The Sketchpad Window
… American electrical engineer named Ivan Edward Sutherland created the framework for modern computer graphics. The system was called Sketchpad, and it was created in a facility dedicated to developing and expanding the United States' defense system after the end of World War Two. Initially, …

Legacy of Betrayal: A Trans-Atlantic Comparison of the Cherokee Removal and the Highland Clearances
… experiences of the Cherokees of Georgia and the Sutherland Gaels in the Highlands of Scotland. Examining the effects of colonialism and cultural imperialism on indigenous populations, the following examines the ways in these peoples mediated their colonial experiences through their own cultural …

Structural setting and petrogenesis of Silurian granites in the Caledonides of northern Scotland
… high parts of the Naver Nappe in northeastern Sutherland. The granite contains magmatic-state shear zones that consistently show top-to-the- W-to- NW sense of movement; it was emplaced during Caledonian (02) west-directed thrusting. The Rogart Granite was emplaced into the footwall of the Naver …

Kimmeridgian and Volgian fault-margin sedimentation in the Northern North Sea area
The Upper Jurassic sediments of the East Coast of Sutherland and the South Brae Oilfield were deposited during the late Jurassic taphrogenic episode in which there was rapid subsidence in the grabens and uplift of the adjacent areas. The initiation of coarse-grained sedimentation in the grabens was …

The Dominion Express Building : a cultural investigation
… designed by the architects Edward and William Sutherland Maxwell in 1912. The building was, in its conservative styling and modest size, a fine example of what has been called the Edwardian Commercial Style. Though traditional architectural history would minimize the importance of the Dominion …

Group integrals in chaotic quantum systems
… of a Hamiltonian system related to Calogero--Sutherland models for arbitrary coupling beta>0. We calculate closed expressions for some group integrals over the unitary symplectic group. Moreover we generalize the Gelfand--Tzetlin coordinate system and construct a parametrization of the unitary …

PROSECUTION AND SENTENCING OF WHITE COLLAR CRIME IN FEDERAL COURT: UNDERSTANDING PATHS AND PROCESSES
… dates to the first use of the phrase by Edwin Sutherland in 1939. One of the most important ways in which this leniency may manifest is in the criminal prosecution and sentencing of violations of law. And yet, the question of whether and how white collar cases are treated differently than other …
