The SLAC Linear Collider has been designed to readily accomodate polarized electron beams. Considerable effort has been made to implement a polarized source, a spin rotation system, and a system to monitor the beam polarization. Nearly all major components have been fabricated. At the current time, severa1 source and polarimeter components have been installed. The installation and commissioning...

Barry Morris Goldwater was a Republican Arizona Senator and US presidential candidate in the twentieth-century whose policies supported the women's reproductive rights [3] movement. Goldwater, a businessman and Air Force reservist, transitioned into politics in the 1950s. He helped align popular support for a conservative Republican Party in the 1960s. Throughout his life, he worked to maintain...

STUDY OBJECTIVE To examine the involvement of Philip Morris in Living Tomorrow 2 and determine the rationale behind its involvement. DESIGN Research was conducted through a web based search of internal tobacco industry documents made publicly available through litigation. MAIN RESULTS For approximately 1,000,000 euros Philip Morris (now Altria) became a co-initiator of Living Tomorrow 2, a ...

OBJECTIVE To determine what young people think about the tobacco company Philip Morris and how it affects their evaluations of the company's new television advertising. DESIGN Data were gathered in the context of a controlled experiment in which participants saw four Philip Morris ads about youth smoking prevention, four Philip Morris ads about charitable works, or four Anheuser-Busch ads abo...

On complete, non-compact manifolds and infinite graphs, FaberKrahn inequalities have been used to estimate the rate of decay of the heat kernel. We develop this technique in the setting of finite Markov chains, proving upper and lower L mixing time bounds via the spectral profile. This approach lets us recover and refine previous conductance-based bounds of mixing time (including the Morris-Per...
