(St. Olaf College)

St. Olaf College is a coeducational, residential, four-year, private liberal arts college in Northfield, Minnesota. It was founded in 1874 by a group of Norwegian-American immigrant pastors and farmers, led by Pastor Bernt Julius Muus. The college is named after Olaf II of Norway, former king and patron saint of Norway.

Investigative Psychophysiology Laboratory Experiences in College and High School: Phase I

Investigative Psychophysiology Laboratory Experiences in College and High School: Phase I

National Science Foundation Dr. Howard Thorsheim Mike Mensink Sarah Strand Mike Hill Philip Marino This project, "Investigative Psychophysiology Laboratory Experiences in College and High School" is funded by the National Science Foundation Course, Curriculum, and Laboratory Improvement (CCLI) Program. The goal of the program is "...to revitalize and improve the quality of undergraduate science, mathematics, engineering and technology education by all students at all types of institutions...by adapting and implementing previously developed exemplary materials and practices, and the national dissemination of exemplary materials and practices" (National Science Foundation, 1999). In this project, St. Olaf College is revising the psychophysiology neuroscience laboratory components of three psychology courses and piloting an outreach program to area high schools. More specifically, the project is developing a series of laboratory investigative experiences that emphasize the quantitative rather than the qualitative aspects of psychophysiology. We are doing this by replacing the analog equipment currently employed in the psychology courses with BioPac digital signal processing equipment and by adapting and implementing exemplary practice found nationally and internationally to upgrade the relevant laboratory exercises for these courses.

The Jmol Voxel (VXL) File Format: Efficient Delivery of Isosurfaces Over the Web

The Jmol Voxel (VXL) File Format: Efficient Delivery of Isosurfaces Over the Web

Robert M. Hanson The Problem Raw surface data files (CUBE, APBS, etc.) are generally 1-10 Mb. Transfer of large files over the Web results in unacceptable delays in page rendering. Molecular visualization often requires the display of surface data. The purpose of the Jmol voxel (JVXL) file format is to provide a mechanism for the efficient delivery of molecular surface data (orbitals, electron density plots, electrostatic potential maps, solvent surfaces, etc.) from a web server to a client page in a compact manner. The format was designed to be used specifically with the open-source Jmol molecular viewing and analysis applet (http://jmol.sourceforge.net), but the format has general utility anywhere the Marching Cubes algorithm is used for isosurface construction. Compared to data formats such as Gaussian CUBE files, which contain a three-dimensional matrix of data, the derived JVXL files are 400-1000 times smaller. Jmol can read and write the JVXL file format and is currently the only application that can be used to create JVXL files. Note that the resultant client model is fully manipulable and scalable in 3D, not just an image.

Acknowledgments We would like to thank the St. Olaf College Physics Department, the Whittier endowment, and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute for their resources, funding, and the opportunity to participate in summer research. Introduction Molecular beam spectroscopy deals with the amount of energy needed to induce change in nuclear orientation (spin) within a molecule. Such spin transitions are called hyperfine because the energy needed to change spin state is much less than that required to induce other transitions, such as vibrational and rotational. Once these transitions are induced and fitted, they can be used to calculate the eQq constant that describes the shape of the charge distribution within the nucleus. Abstract Using St. Olaf’s molecular beam electric resonance spectrometer we have done significant work towards mapping the hyperfine spectrum of KI. Sufficient progress has been made that we should be able to improve preexisting measurements by four to five significant figures. Additionally, we have begun to improve upon software written by previous students. Apparatus Three diffusion pumps and two ion pumps evacuate the apparatus to 10-7 torr. An oven in the source region heats the molecular solid to 500 ºC (over 900 ºF), which causes them to leave the oven through a small hole. A quadrupole lens in region A focuses the molecules by rotational state into a beam. Parallel conducting plates in region C make an oscillati...
