We designed and constructed a simplified experimental system to create a Bose-Einstein condensate in 87 Rb. Our system has several novel features including a mechanical atom transfer mechanism and a hybrid Ioffe-Pritchard magnetic trap. The apparatus has been designed to consistently produce a stable condensate even when it is not well optimized.

We are looking at how new forms of document interface can be used to support new forms of scholarly discourse, and ultimately, new models of scholarly publishing. The vehicle we use to conduct this research is the Digital Document Discourse Environment (D3E). D3E is an experimental system supporting the publication of web-based documents with integrated discourse facilities and embedded interac...

The experimental system discussed in this paper uses a threefold upprouch to the simulution of actuul banking activities. A generulized bunk modeling system is presented from which u subset is selectedjor use. The user interacts with the modeling system viu an inteructive simulution language. The composition of the desired model is determined interactively via a terminal und un inteructive mode...

M. J. Lerner (1980) proposed that people need to believe in a just world; thus, evidence that the world is not just is threatening, and people have a number of strategies for reducing such threats. Early research on this idea, and on just-world theory more broadly, was reviewed in early publications (e.g., M. J. Lerner, 1980; M. J. Lerner & D. T. Miller, 1978). In the present article, focus is ...

When a new investigational medicine is intended to be applied to populations with different ethnic backgrounds, a stratified comparative phase III trial using ethnic groups as strata may be conducted to assess the influence of ethnic factors on clinical outcomes of this new medicine. In this paper, based on a binomial model with odds ratio as the measure of the treatment effect, we derive the s...

This article explores how French psychologists understood the state of their field during the first quarter of the twentieth century, and whether they thought it was in crisis. The article begins with the Russianborn psychologist Nicolas Kostyleff and his announcement in 1911 that experimental psychology was facing a crisis. After briefly situating Kostyleff, the article examines his analysis o...
