  • C*-algebra extensions of C(X) 
    Lin, Huaxin (2010-04-20)
  • C*-algebras constructed from factor groupoids and their analysis through relative K-theory and excision 
    Haslehurst, Mitch (2022-08-30)
    We address the problem of finding groupoid models for C*-algebras given some prescribed K-theory data. This is a reasonable question because a groupoid model for a C*-algebra reveals much about the structure of the algebra. ...
  • C*-algebras from actions of congruence monoids 
    Bruce, Chris (2020-04-20)
    We initiate the study of a new class of semigroup C*-algebras arising from number-theoretic considerations; namely, we generalize the construction of Cuntz, Deninger, and Laca by considering the left regular C*-algebras ...
  • C*-algebras From Smale spaces 
    Putnam, Ian F. (2009-12-07)
    We consider the C*-algebras constructed from certain hyperbolic dynamical systems. The construction, due to Ruelle, generalizes the C*-algebras of Cuntz and Krieger. We discuss relations between the C*-algebras, show the ...
  • C*-algebras from substitution tilings : a new approach 
    Gonçalves, Daniel (2009-12-14)
    C*-algebras from tilings are of particular interest. In 1998 J. Anderson and I. Putnam introduced a C*-algebra obtained from a substitution tiling that is viewed today as a standard invariant for this tilings. In this ...
  • C*-algebras of sofic shifts 
    Samuel, Jonathan Niall (2017-11-15)
    This Dissertation shows how the theory of C*-algebra of graphs relates to the theory of C*-algebras of sofic shifts. C*-algebras of sofic shifts are generalizations of Cuntz-Krieger algebras [8]. It is shown that if X is ...
  • C. elegans as a model organism to study female reproductive health 
    Athar, Faria; Templeman, Nicole M (Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2022-04)
    Female reproductive health has been historically understudied and underfunded. Here, we present the advantages of using a free-living nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, as an animal system to study fundamental aspects of ...
  • C.B. Macpherson: Dilemmas of Liberalism and Socialism 
    Leiss, William (New World Perspectives, 1988)
    Canada’s preeminent political theorist, C.B. Macpherson, won his international reputation for his controversial interpretations of liberalism. This book—the first to examine the entire range of his writings—seeks to place ...
  • The Ca and Mg isotope record of the Cryogenian Trezona carbon isotope excursion 
    Ahm, Anne-Sofie C.; Bjerrum, Christian J.; Hoffman, Paul F.; Macdonald, Francis A.; Maloof, Adam C.; Rose, Catherine V.; Strauss, Justin V.; Higgins, John A. (Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2021)
    The Trezona carbon isotope excursion is recorded on five different continents in platform carbonates deposited prior to the end-Cryogenian Marinoan glaciation (>635 Ma) and represents a change in carbon isotope values of ...
  • CADConverter-For Converting Complex CAD files into HDF5 Format 
    Unknown author (2023-08-29)
    In this paper, we offer a very effective approach for extracting data from Computer- Aided Design And Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) step files and converted them to the self-descriptive and open-source HDF5 format. This format ...
  • Cadmium zinc telluride as a mid-infrared variable retarder 
    FitzGerald, William; Taherion, Saeid; Kumar, F. Joseph; Giles, David; Hore, Dennis K. (Journal of Applied Physics, 2018)
    The electro-optic behavior of cadmium zinc telluride is examined in the mid-infrared region between 3 and 11 μm, for applied DC field strengths of up to 106 V/m. The measurements performed here include full characterization ...
  • Caffeinated Alcoholic Beverages in Canada: Prevalence of Use, Risks and Recommended Policy Responses 
    Brache, Kristina; Thomas, Gerald; Stockwell, Tim (Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse, 2012)
  • Caging the seas: cetacean capture and display at Marineland of the Pacific, 1954-1967 
    Griffin, Isobel (2018-08-16)
    This thesis examines the early years of marine mammal captivity at Marineland of the Pacific and its impacts on the oceanarium industry, cetacean science, and public perceptions of whales. Opening in 1954, Marineland was ...
  • Calcium carbonate hexahydrate (ikaite): History of mineral formation as recorded by stable isotopes 
    Whiticar, Michael J.; Suess, Erwin; Wefer, Gerold; Müller, Peter J. (Minerals, 2022)
    Calcium carbonate hexahydrate (ikaite) is a rare mineral that forms as metastable species in the organic-carbon-rich sediments of the King George Basin, Bransfield Strait, Antarctica, as a consequence of early diagenetic ...
  • Calcium Carbonate Hexahydrate (Ikaite): History of Mineral Formation as Recorded by Stable Isotopes 
    Whiticar, Michael J.; Suess, Erwin; Wefer, Gerold; Müller, Peter J. (Minerals, 2022)
    Calcium carbonate hexahydrate (ikaite) is a rare mineral that forms as metastable species in the organic-carbon-rich sediments of the King George Basin, Bransfield Strait, Antarctica, as a consequence of early diagenetic ...
  • Calcium stannyl formation by organostannane dehydrogenation 
    Morris, Louis J.; Hill, Michael S.; Manners, Ian; McMullin, Claire L.; Mahon, Mary F.; Rajabi, Nasir A. (Chemical Communications, 2019)
    Reaction of the dimeric calcium hydride, [(BDI)CaH]2, with Ph3SnH ensues with elimination of H2 to provide [(BDI)Ca-μ2-H-(SnPh3)Ca(BDI)] and [(BDI)Ca(SnPh3)]2 alongside dismutation to Ph4Sn, H2 and Sn(0). DFT analysis ...
  • A calculus for information-driven networks 
    Wu, Kui; Jiang, Yuming; Hu, Guoqiang (IEEE, 2009-07)
    Information-driven networks include a large category of networking systems, where network nodes are aware of information delivered and thus can not only forward data packets but may also perform information processing. In ...
  • Calibration and response of the high pseudorapidity region of the ATLAS liquid argon end-cap calorimeters 
    Shaw, Warren Darrell (2010-02-03)
    In preparation for the ATLAS experiment at the LHC at CERN. the high pseudorapidity region (|n| > 2.5) of the ATLAS end-cap liquid argon calorimeters underwent particle beam testing in 2004. One of the main goals of these ...
  • Calibration of a shock tube by analysis of the particle trajectories 
    Whitten, Brian Thomas (2014-03-20)
    It can be shown that for the complete description of all the physical parameters in the flow behind an imtermediate strength unsteady shock, a knowledge of the particle trajectories within the flow is sufficient. This ...
  • Calibration of grid models for analyzing energy policies 
    Duan, Jon; van Kooten, G. Cornelis; Islam, A. T. M. Hasibul (Energies, 2023)
    Intermittent forms of renewable energy destabilize electricity grids unless adequate reliable generating capacity and storage are available, while instability of hybrid electricity grids and cost fluctuations in fossil ...
