Massive-Star Supernovae as Major Dust Factories
(arXiv, 2006)
We present late-time optical and mid-infrared observations of the Type-II supernova 2003gd in NGC 628. Mid-infrared excesses consistent with cooling dust in the ejecta are observed 499-678 days after outburst, and are ...
Role of the triplet state in the green emission peak of polyfluorene films: A time evolution study
(American Institute of Physics, 2010)
The blue emission of ethyl-hexyl substituted polyfluorene (PF2/6) films is accompanied by a low energy green emission peak around 500 nm in inert atmosphere. The intensity of this 500 nm peak is large in electroluminescence (EL) compared...
Money for Nothing? The Impact of Changes in the Pell Grant Program on Institutional Revenues and the Placement of Needy Students
(American Education Finance Association, 2007)
Using new institutional-level data, we assess the impact of changing federal aid levels on institutional-level Pell revenues. Using various policy instruments associated with Pell generosity, we quantify the sensitivity ...
Debt types and burdens by family structures
(2020)
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine family structure differences in debt types and burdens of American families. Design/methodology/approach: Data are obtained from the 2016 Survey of Consumer Finances. Eight ...
The Protein Storage Vacuole: A Unique Compound Organelle
(The Journal of Cell Biology, 2001)
Storage proteins are deposited into protein storage vacuoles (PSVs) during plant seed development and maturation and stably accumulate to high levels; subsequently, during germination the storage proteins are rapidly ...
Determining the Spring to Summer Transition in the Missouri Ozarks Using Synoptic Scale Atmospheric Data
(Missouri Academy of Science, 2002-12)
There is abundant anecdotal evidence available to suggest that the transition from a spring to summer season flow regime is often quite abrupt. This same transition renders longrange forecasting problematic as the forecast ...
Evolution of Capacity for Institutionalized Management of Intellectual Property at International Agricultural Research Centers : A Strategic Case Study
(AgBioForum, 2005)
Intellectual property rights long remained a matter dealt with in vague terms of general policy at international agricultural research centers (IARCs). This situation changed at the turn of the century, when intellectual ...
Price controls and biotechnology innovation : are state government policies reducing research and innovation by the ag biotech industry in India?
(AgBioForum, 2010)
In 2006, the governments of major cotton-producing states in India ordered all seed companies to lower their prices of Bt cotton seed to Rs. 750 per packet of seed, down from Rs. 1,600 per packet. Although biotech firms ...
Grain storage management: A guide for keeping your grain in top condition
(University of Missouri Extension, 1993)
Grain isn't necessarily "in the bin" after harvest. That is, broken kernels, moisture pockets, insects, storage molds and other problems can set in and take away your hard-earned capital. This publication addresses problems ...
The Origins Billions Star Survey: Galactic Explorer
(The Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2006)
The Origins Billions Star Survey is a mission concept addressing the astrophysics of extrasolar planets, Galactic structure, the Galactic halo and tidal streams, the Local Group and local supercluster of galaxies, dark ...

"MU's faculty not only read books, they write them. Here's a sampling of the authors whose knowledge goes beyond the campus through their literary work."--Table of contents for issue.
The introduction of women students
(University of Missouri. Alumni Association, 1967)
"Excerpts from the University catalogue of 1872 explain how 'hesitation steps' were taken to admit women to University privileges."--Table of contents for issue.

Read a chapter from a new novel by one of MU's most popular authors, William Least Heat-Moon, a.k.a. William Trogdon.
Direct visualization of the E. coli Sec translocase engaging precursor proteins in lipid bilayers
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2019)
Escherichia coli exports proteins via a translocase comprising SecA and the translocon, SecYEG. Structural changes of active translocases underlie general secretory system function, yet directly visualizing dynamics has ...

High-pressure study of the Raman modes in YBa2(Cu0.96Ni0.04)4O8
(American Physical Society, 1999)
We present a study of the Raman phonons in YBa2(Cu0.96Ni0.04)4O8 under hydrostatic pressure in the superconducting phase. A comparison with our earlier work on the undoped YBa2Cu4O8 shows that the pressure coefficients ...
