Investigation of the presence of charge order in magnetite by measurement of the spin wave spectrum
(American Physical Society, 2006)
Inelastic neutron scattering results on magnetite (Fe3O4) show a large splitting in the acoustic spin wave branch, producing a 7 meV gap midway to the Brillouin zone boundary at q=(0,0,1∕2) and ℏω=43 meV. The splitting occurs below the Verwey...
Subdiffusion and lateral diffusion coefficient of lipid atoms and molecules in phospholipid bilayers
(American Physical Society, 2009)
We use a long, all-atom molecular-dynamics MD simulation combined with theoretical modeling to investigate the dynamics of selected lipid atoms and lipid molecules in a hydrated diyristoyl-phosphatidylcholine
lipid ...

Correcting Optical-Axis Calculation in Polarization-Sensitive Optical Coherence Tomography
(IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2010-10)
Polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PSOCT) has found many applications in imaging birefringence tissue samples. Polarization-sensitive detection is often implemented by utilizing a circularly polarized incident light and detecting...
Quantitative Characterization of Billowed Structures Along the Margins of Basaltic Intrusions to Determine Process and Timing of Formation: Case Studies from Big Bend National Park, Texas and 71 Gulch, Idaho
(2021)
were recognized: linear, sinuous, teardrop, bulbous, circular, transitional, and overprinted. The scale of identified structures is similar between the two localities with insignificant variation in mean wavelength and amplitude of crests and troughs...
Fully automated deep supervised and unsupervised learning approaches for 3D protein cryo-EM density map reconstruction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
One of the most important components of the human body is the protein. Protein uses for building and repairing tissues, making enzymes and hormones. It is the essential building block of bones, muscles, cartilages, skin ...
Soil testing in Missouri : a guide for conducting soil tests in Missouri
(2022)
"Missouri Agricultural Experiment Station Bulletin 734, An Explanation of Theory and Methods of Soil Testing by E. R. Graham (1) was published in 1959. It served for years as a guide. In 1977 Extension Circular 923, Soil Testing in Missouri...
Propagation of polarized light in skeletal muscle
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Skeletal muscle is a very important tissue in animals and humans. Optical polarization imaging is a non-invasive method to study biological tissues and provides unique polarization contrast. An imaging system was developed ...
Purification and characterization of A[beta] and probing the interactions between myricetin and A[beta] using various spectroscopic methods
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Worldwide, millions of people suffer from symptoms of memory loss and confusion associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Mounting evidence suggests ...
Supercell studies of the Fermi surface changes in the electron-doped superconductor LaFeAsO1‑xFx
(American Physical Society, 2008)
We study the changes in the Fermi surface with electron doping in the LaFeAsO1‑xFx superconductors with density-functional supercell calculations using the linearized augmented plane-wave method. The supercell calculations ...
A Firework of H2 Knots in the planetary nebula NGC 7293 (The Helix Nebula)
(American Astronomical Society, 2009)
We present a deep and wide field-of-view (4 × 7 ) image of the planetary nebula (PN) NGC 7293 (the Helix Nebula) in the 2.12 μm H2 v = 1 → 0 S(1) line. The excellent seeing (0. 4) at the Subaru Telescope, allows
the details of cometary knots...
Soil testing in Missouri : a guide for conducting soil tests in Missouri (2012)
(University of Missouri Extension, 2012)
testing can be used to find excesses of certain nutrients. The soil testing process consists of: sampling, sample preparation, nutrient extraction and chemical determination of these nutrients, determination of pH and quantity of soil acidity...
An evaluation of waste plastic in asphalt pavement towards a circular economy
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Incorporating waste plastic into asphalt pavement is an evolving recycling strategy based on a circular economy approach. Dow has cooperated with MU to use optimal recycle plastic to target better pavement performance with less plastic leaking...
