COALESCING THE FRAGMENTED INFORMATION ASSOCIATED WITH EACH EVENT OF A HIGH-ENERGY PHYSICS DETECTOR AND THEN PROCESSING IT AT THE RATES DEMANDED BY ACCELERATOR SYSTEMS ARE AMONG THE LARGEST CHALLENGES IN THE PHYSICS COMMUNITY. NEW DETECTOR SYSTEMS CONTINUE TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF MEASURED PARAMETERS AND SIMULTANEOUSLY INCREASE THE RESOLUTION OF DETECTOR COMPONENTS SO THAT THE VOLUME OF GENRATED ...

THE NATION DESIRES TO EXPAND THE USE OF CLEAN BURNING, COMPETITIVELY PRICED NATURAL GAS. THE INCREASED DEMAND FOR NATURAL GAS HAS PROMPTED NEW DRILLING IN ESTABLISHED GAS FIELDS. THE PROPER PLACEMENT OF THE NEW WELLS IS DEPENDENT ON THE GAS FORMATION PROPERTIES BETWEEN THE EXISTING WELLS. ONE OF THE PROPERTIES IS THE THICKNESS OF THE GAS BEARING ZONE. IT IS GENERALLY ACCEPTED THAT THE FORMATIO ...

REMEDIATION OF SOIL AND GROUNDWATER TO REDUCE HEAVY METAL CONTAMINANTS TO BACKGROUND LEVELS POSES A SERIOUS CHALLENGE. CONVENTIONAL METHODS ARE ABLE TO REDUCE CONTAMINATION LEVELS, BUT TOTAL REMEDIATION, DEFINED AS ACHIEVEMENT OF BACKGROUND LEVELS OF THE METAL, MAY NOT BE ECONOMICALLY FEASIBLE. A PERMEABLE CHELATION BARRIER CONTAINING SILICA GEL MODIFIED TO CHELATE HEAVY METALS PROVIDES AN ECONO ...
