Study of multipactor suppression of microwave components using perforated waveguide technology for space applications
Download2017-01-01
Ye, Ming, Li, Yun, He, Yongning, Daneshmand, Mojgan
With the development of space technology, microwave components with increased power handling capability and reduced weight have been urgently required. In this work, the perforated waveguide technology is proposed to suppress the multipactor effect of high power microwavecomponents. Meanwhile,...

Aquatic nanotoxicity testing: Insights at the biochemical, cellular, and whole animal levels
DownloadFall 2013
Aquatic organisms are susceptible to waterborne nanoparticles and there is only limited understanding of the mechanisms by which these emerging contaminants affect biological processes. The unique properties of nanomaterials necessitate evaluation of standard toxicity testing techniques to...

Indicators of gold mineralization in the Yellowknife greenstone belt: a lithogeochemistry and mineralogy study
DownloadSpring 2021
Geochemical signatures within an economic deposit are an important indicator used in the exploration of high-grade mineralization. In this study, we aim to identify elements that can act as geochemical indicators for orogenic gold within the Yellowknife greenstone belt that allow the...

Development of High Efficiency and New Selectivity Liquid Chromatographic Phases for the Separation of Ionic and Hydrophilic Analytes
DownloadFall 2013
Separation of low molecular weight ions and hydrophilic analytes is achieved by high performance ion chromatography (IC) and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC). The goal of this thesis was three-fold: to increase the efficiency of IC separations by employing small particles; to...

Pyranopterin Coordination Controls Molybdenum Electrochemistry in Escherichia coli Nitrate Reductase
DownloadFall 2015
Molybdenum is an essential trace element for most species on the earth. Molybdoenzymes (enzymes containing Molybdenum) play diverse roles in human health, global geochemical cycles, and bacterial metabolism. Interestingly, nitrate reductase (NarGHI) isolated from the common gut bacterium...

Diagenetic Controls on Hydrothermal Fluid Flow in the Osiris, Isis, and Isis East Carlin-Type Gold Showings, Nadaleen Trend, Yukon
DownloadFall 2015
Following ATAC Resources Ltd.’s 2010 discovery of the gold prospects in the Nadaleen Trend (Central Yukon), company geologists and consultants determined that Precambrian carbonate rocks within the trend contain large endowments of gold located in the hinges of anticlines and fault zones. ...
