In 1940 Dr. Arthur Jackson of the faculty of the Yale School of Medicine brought to our attention the existence of a group of medical books in a barn in Litchfield, Connecticut. They belonged to a Litchfield resident named Mr. Joseph Cowan. Upon enquiry it was discovered that Mr. Cowan was the adopted son of Dr. J. Knight Bacon, whose mother was a daughter of Jonathan Knight, who at the age of ...

We report μSR Knight shift and susceptibility studies for 1 T applied field along the crystalline cand a-axes of the heavy fermion compound Ce2IrIn8. Below a characteristic temperature T ∗ one observes a ‘Knight-shift anomaly’ in which the Knight shift constant K no longer scales linearly with χ. This anomaly is consistent with a scaling law in which the susceptibility χ is composed of a high-t...

Acknowledgments Tom Knight originally suggested the idea of using fat-tree structures as a means for scaling Transit networks. Tom Knight and Henry Minsky were invaluable for discussion and criticism of these ideas throughout the development process. Discussions with Tom Leighton, Charles Leiserson, and Alex Ishii were valuable to my understanding of the more theoretical aspects of network orga...

We have studied the variation of Knight Shift with temperature using pseudopotential technique for Zn and Al metals. Knight Shift occurs due to the hyperfine contact interaction between the nucleus and surrounding conduction electrons. The computed values of zinc is obtained using H-eigen values with α = αvt and β = 1 gives K= 0.374 against Kexp = 0.337 at 419 0 C and 0.391 against Kexp = 0.399...
