This article describes how low-temperature photolysis of tris(trimethylsilyl)silane derivatives in a 3-methylpentane glass at 77 K yields hexamethyldisilane and trimethylsilyl-substituted silylenes.

This report summarizes the results of the interviews with end users for the Web-at-Risk project. The Web-at-Risk project is one of eight digital preservation projects funded in 2004 by the Library of Congress. The project is a 3-year collaborative effort of the California Digital Library (CDL), the University of North Texas (UNT), and New York University (NYU). The project will develop a Web Archiving Service that enables curators to build, store, and manage collections of web-published materials.

This report summarizes the findings of the University of North Texas Center for Economic Development and Research's analysis of the economic and fiscal impacts of Dallas Area Rapid Transit operations and capital spending.

Article on a functional genomics approach to (iso)flavonoid glycosylation in the model legume Medicago truncatula.

Presentation for the Texas Library Association (TLA) annual conference. The author discusses library education via distance learning and the implications for the profession.

Patent relating to methods of forming graphene/(multilayer) boron nitride for electronic device applications.

This document is an extensive, but not comprehensive, bibliography of articles pertaining to social tagging and library catalogs between 2006-2012, mostly peer-reviewed sources, arranged chronologically.

In this article, a theoretical understanding is developed of the single-particle reflection properties of a force field, considering the incident charged particles to have a non-drifting, isotropic velocity distribution. Classical trajectory Monte Carlo simulations and analytical modeling are employed. The initiation of an experimental effort to study force fields is described.

This article discusses the experimental and predicted solubilities of 3,4-dimethoxybenzoic acid in select organic solvents of varying polarity and hydrogen-bonding character.

This article discusses workflow tools for digital curation.

Article defining ways that metadata records might change (addition, deletion, or modification) and describing a study to evaluate multiple versions of selected records in the UNT Libraries' Digital Collections to observe the types and frequency of various changes.

This article reports the continued expansion of the American mink to new sites in the Cape Horn Biosphere Reserve.

Presentation for the Linked Data: An Emerging Trend Panel at the Texas Library Association (TLA) 2015 Annual Conference. This presentation discusses linked data in the UNT Libraries' digital collections.

This article examines how potato production can be improved by altering planting date in China’s semiarid region, thus improving potato adaptation to climate change.

This article examines how the disruption of the cisd-1 gene function, using RNA interference (RNAi), or mutant alleles [cisd-1(tm4993) deletion mutant, cisd-1(pnIs27) insertion mutant] led to germline abnormalities including an increase in the number of cell corpses and distal tip cell migration defects.

The article describes cosmic expansion as correlated with the standpoints of local observers’ co-moving horizons. In keeping with relational quantum mechanics, which claims that quantum systems are only meaningful in the context of measurements, the authors suggest that information gets ergodically “diluted” in our isotropic and homogeneous expanding Universe, so that an observer detects just a limited amount of the total cosmic bits.

This presentation reviews the University of North Texas approach to revamp the philosophy for, and means of supporting, subject librarians as they provide library services to the university community. Crafting a new philosophy of liaison librarianship can be both an exciting and a daunting process. New models of service have emerged that offer exciting opportunities to improve librarian skill sets, clarify expectations of subject librarians, standardize assessment of liaisons, and identify a variety of strategies for providing liaison services.

This article presents the design, modeling, and experimental characterization of flexible square-shaped spiral coils with different scaling factors for WPT systems. The effects of coil scaling factor on inductance, capacitance, resistance, and the quality factor (Q-factor) are modeled, simulated, and experimentally validated for the case of flexible planar coils. This article also presents the effect of skin contact with the flexible coil in terms of the power transfer efficiency (PTE) to validate the suitability as a wearable sensor.

Research study explores how oxidation products of organic components (lipids, proteins, amino acids, etc.) can serve as the molecular source of red and near-infrared excited autofluorescence for biomedical diagnostics.

Article exploring the association between second-hand smoke exposure, asthma, and asthma severity in children ages 6-17 as well as the effect of birth weight and prematurity (BWP) on parental smoking and asthma. Results indicate that focused asthma interventions in children should inquire about BWP status as well as parental smoking and household smoke exposure to reduce asthma morbidity and mortality.
