Presentation for the 2005 University Scholars Day at the University of North Texas discussing research on the characteristics of blue elliptical galaxies. This presentation explores star-forming systems, blue galaxies, and the origin of ellipticals.

This article presents the light curves of 21 gravitational microlensing events from the first six years of the MACHO Project gravitational microlensing survey that are likely examples of lensing by binary systems.

Article on carrier-envelope phase effect on atomic excitation by few-cycle rf pulses.

Article on CO adsorption on noble metal clusters and local environmental effects.

Article on coherent excitation of a two-level atom driven by a far off-resonant classical field.

Patent relating to the composition of epoxy resin, aliphatic amine curing agent and halogenated amine.

This article details the equilibrium of a positron plasma in a model of the ALPHA apparatus that is computed using a finite-difference method. The positron plasma in the model extends to axial magnetic mirrors in absence of an octupole field. Formation of a three-dimensional electrostatic potential well is found to occur self-consistently. Well depths under various conditions are evaluated. Also, the equilibrium with an antiproton plasma confined in the potential well is computed.

This article discusses cooperation-induced topological complexity and the emergence of intelligence.

Article on diffusion entropy and waiting time statistics of hard-x-ray solar flares.

Article on dynamic conductance of carbon nanotubes.

This article discusses the dynamics of EEG entropy.

This article discusses dynamics of electroencephalogram entropy and pitfalls of scaling detection. Herein the authors study the time evolution of diffusion entropy to elucidate the scaling of EGG time series.

This article discusses the enhancement of localization in one-dimensional random potentials with long-range correlations.

Patent regarding the synthesis, uses and compositions of crystal hydrogels.

Article on experimental observation of carrier-envelope phase effect by multicycle pulses.

This article reports new Herschel observations of extremely luminous optically selected active galactic nuclei.

Article on first-principles analysis of electron-phonon interactions in graphene.

Article systematically studying the effect of Si, P, and S impurities on the diffusion and binding of an H atom in a face-centered-cubic (FCC) Ni lattice using density functional theory (DFT),

Article on the first-principles theory of correlated transport through nanojunctions.

Article discussing a fluctuating environment as a source of periodic modulation.

Article discussing fractional calculus as a macroscopic manifestation of randomness.

Article explores giant cross-magnetic-field steps which occur as a result of positron-electron collisions. Within a constant magnetic field (e.g., 1 T), a collision between a positron and an electron can result in a correlated drift across the magnetic field for a continuous range of impact parameters. Within this range, drift distances orders of magnitude larger than that associated with like-charge collisions were observed by computer simulation.

This article reports the discovery of the GRB optical afterglow and observations of its environment using Gemini South, the Hubble Space Telescope, Chandra, Swift, and the Very Large Array.

This article reviews approaches for improvement of tribological properties of polymers based on inclusion of fillers.
