In a recent paper, the authors have shown that the secondary reduction of W-algebras provides a natural framework for the linearization of W-algebras. In particular, it allows in a very simple way the calculation of the linear algebra W(G, H) ≥0 associated to a wide class of W(G,H) algebras, as well as the expression of the W generators of W(G,H) in terms of the generators of W(G, H) ≥0. In thi...

Scan strategies for the measurement of--the e+e+ W+W-. threshold arg discussed. The most sensitive beam energies (I&) for the measurement of the T/lr mass (.k!w) and width (I?w are Eb N ik!tv + 0.5 GeV and Eb N &lw 1 GeV, ) respectively. With a commitment of 250 pb-’ to the measurement of the W-pa.ir threshold, it appears to be possible measure Mw with a precision SMw 2 160 MeV. The correspondi...

Objective(s) Theophylline, a xanthenes derivative, is still widely used as an effective bronchodilator in the management of asthmatic patients. It is used both as a prophylactic drug and to prevent acute exacerbations of asthma. The aim of study was to formulate and evaluate effect of the microencapsulation of theophylline loaded nanoparticles on the reduction of burst release. Materials and Me...

Let P be a finite set of primes, and let S be a finite sequence of positive integers. This paper presents an algorithm to find the largest P smooth divisor of each integer in S. The algorithm takes time b(lg b)2+o(1), where b is the total number of bits in P and S. A previous algorithm by the author takes time b(lg b)3+o(1) to find all the factors from P of each integer in S; a variant by Frank...

Volumetric Particle Modeling. (May 2007) Brent Michael Dingle, B.S., Bradley University; M.S., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. John Keyser This dissertation presents a robust method of modeling objects and forces for computer animation. Within this method objects and forces are represented as particles. As in most modeling systems, the movement of objects is driven by phys...

Improving the sustainability of our society requires significant change in our collective behavior. But today, individuals in our society have no regular way of seeing that collective behavior, or how their own behavior compares to it. We are creating a research network that will study how new technologies such as mobiles and visualization can encourage individuals to change their behavior to i...
