Adjusting neutrino interaction models and evaluating uncertainties using NOvA near detector data
(EDP Sciences, 2020-12-04)The two-detector design of the NOvA neutrino oscillation experiment, in which two functionally identical detectors are exposed to an intense neutrino beam, aids in canceling leading order effects of cross-section uncertainties. ... -
Communication apprehension and mindfulness: Can a negative correlation help us improve?
(Wichita State University, 2021-04-02)Strong communication skills are vital in the modern workplace, and in fact impact numerous aspects of a person's life. In order to prepare students, many colleges and universities require an introductory-level communication ... -
Cranial suture closure and its relationship to the estimation of age: A re-evaluation of the Todd & Lyon Method
(Wichita State University, 2021-04-02)The proficiency of adult human identification by means of age estimation based on skeletal remains is indispensable, and frequently call for anthropological methods including but not limited to the estimating of age. Past ... -
Attenuation simulations and hardware design for the nuSol Space-based Neutrino Probe
(Wichita State University, 2021-04-02)INTRODUCTION: The nuSol project aims to design, build, and launch a small payload which will perform several near-solar approaches in order to demonstrate the viability of a space-based neutrino detector and perform ... -
Can video games help prevent violence? An evaluation of games promoting bystander intervention to combat sexual violence on college campuses.
(American Psychological Association, 2021)Objective: Several studies have documented sustained changes in knowledge, attitudes, and bystander behaviors following participation in bystander intervention programs to prevent sexual violence on college campuses. ... -
Emotional reactivity and police expertise in use-of-force decision-making
(Springer, 2021-03-19)Given the vast amount of evidence showing the substantial influence of emotion on decision-making, we examined emotionality—a person’s emotional reactivity to a stimulus—in police use-of-force decision-making between a ... -
Information and communication technology use, social support, and life satisfaction among Korean immigrant elders
(Routledge, 2020-11-29)This study recruited 150 community dwelling Korean immigrant elders to understand the role of information and communication technology (ICT) use on social support and life satisfaction by utilizing purposive sampling ... -
Low-field differential ion mobility spectrometry of dipole-aligned macromolecules
(American Chemical Society, 2020-09-04)Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) with mass spectrometry has grown into a powerful approach to simplify complex mixtures, disentangle isomers, and elucidate their geometries. Two established branches are linear IMS based on ... -
Two cytotype niche shifts are of different magnitude in Solidago gigantea
(Botanical Society of America, 2020-11-04)Premise: Polyploidy may serve to contribute to range size if autopolyploid cytotypes are adapted to differing ecological conditions. This study aims to establish the geographic distribution of cytotypes within the giant ... -
Neutrino interaction classification with a convolutional neural network in the DUNE far detector
(American Physical Society, 2020-11-09)The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment is a next-generation neutrino oscillation experiment that aims to measure CP-violation in the neutrino sector as part of a wider physics program. A deep learning approach based on ... -
A tragedy within : An evaluation of the legal realities concerning the Wichita State football team crash of October 2,1970
(Wichita State University, 12/01/2001)This thesis attempts to evaluate the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) hearing held in regard to the Wichita State football team crash of October 2, 1970. From the exterior, it appeared like a normal investigative ... -
Multi-scale phase-field modeling of layer-by-layer powder compact densification during solid-state direct metal laser sintering
(Elsevier, 2021-05-01)Solid-state direct metal laser sintering (S-DMLS) builds structures by using laser energy to sinter powder particles in a layer-by-layer manner. Powder size distribution (PSD) is an important parameter governing the ... -
