Ion energy relaxation in strong shocks

Destler, William; Morse, D. (1972-11-15)

Ion thermalization in strong, high-beta shocks

Morse, D.; Auer, P.; Destler, William (1972-07-04)

Is affirmative action in university admissions legal, effective, and just?

Simone, Albert (2003 05)

Since 1978, the “Law of the land” has been the decision handed down by Justice Lewis F. Powell, Jr., in Regents of the University of California vs. Bakke. In a 5 to 4 vote, Justice Powell ruled that while quotas are illegal, ...

The Isomorphism problem for incidence rings

Abrams, Gene; Haefner, Jeremy; Del Rio, Angel (University of California, 1999)

Let P and P’ be finite preordered sets, and let R be a ring for which the number of nonzero summands in a direct decomposition of the regular module RR is bounded. We show that if the incidence rings I(P;R) and I(P’;R) ...

Isomorphisms of row and column finite matrix rings

Haefner, Jeremy; Del Rio, A.; Simon, J. (American Mathmatical Society, 1997-06)

This paper investigates the ring-theoretic similarities and the cate- gorical dissimilarities between the ring RFM(R) of row finite matrices and the ring RCFM(R) of row and column finite matrices. For example, we prove ...

The key to success

Simone, Albert (Rochester Institute of Technology, 2005-06-02)

I am very pleased and privileged to have this opportunity to offer some remarks to this year’s graduating class. MCC and RIT are, and have been for a long time, close partners in higher education. Together we are a major ...

Laboratory simulation of artificial plasma clouds in the ionosphere

Morse, D.; Destler, William (1971-11-17)

Labratory study of high-beta plasma shock waves

Morse, D.; Destler, William (1970-11-04)

Linear analysis of a finite length plasma-filled backward wave oscillator

Ali, M.; Orgura, K.; Minami, K.; Destler, William; Granatstein, V. (American Institute of Physics, 1992-04)

Absolute instability in a plasma-filled backward wave oscillator with sinusoidally corrugated slow wave structure driven by an intense relativistic electron beam has been analyzed numerically. The maximum spatial growth ...

Local orders whose lattices are direct sums of ideals

Haefner, Jeremy (American Mathematical Society, 1990-10)

Let R be a complete local Dedekind domain with quotient field K and let A be a local R-order in a separable K-algebra. This paper classifies those orders A such that every indecomposable R-torsionfree A-module is isomorphic ...

Low-voltage, megawatt free-electron lasers at a frequency near 300 GHz

Booske, J.; Granatstein, V.; Antonsen, T. Jr; Destler, William; Levush, B.; Mayergoyz, I.; Radack, D.; Rodgers, J.; Rosenbury, E.; Segalov, Z.; Serbeto, A. (SPIE, 1988-01)

Design procedures and beam transport feasibility experiments Il.re discussed for a novel, millimeter-wave free electron laser (FEL) concept employing short period magnetic undulators and a sheet electron beam. The ...

Measurements and simulation of controlled beamfront motion in the laser controlled collective accelerator

Yao, R.; Destler, William; Striffler, C.; Rodgers, J.; Segalov, Z. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 1989-03)

In the Laser Controlled Collective Accelerator, an intense electron beam is injected at a current above the vacuum space charge limit into an initially evacuated drift tube. A plasma channel, produced by time-sequenced, ...

Meeting the global challenge through diversity

Simone, Albert (Rochester Institute of Technology, 2006-02-07)

In what follows, we shall describe some of the key challenges facing the United States at this time. We shall cite some general macro economic statistics which describe the U.S. economy over time and in relationship to ...

Microwave generation from rotating electron beams in magnetron-type waveguides

Destler, William; Kulkarni, R.; Striffler, C.; Weiler, R. (American Institute of Physics, 1983-07)

The production of high power microwave radiation at high harmonics of the electron cyclotron frequency by the interaction of a rotating electron beam with a magnetron-type conducting boundary has been studied theoretically ...

Microwave generation in a high voltage triggered pseudospark discharge experiment

Ramaswamy, K.; Destler, William; Rodgers, J. (American Institute of Physics, 1998-04-01)

A set of five experiments to study the microwave emission accompanying the high voltage pseudospark discharge are reported. The generation of the microwaves in all cases but one is attributed to electron beam-plasma ...
