The return home : experiences of deterritorialization in post-Pinochet Chilean literature
(University of Kansas, 2002-05-31)In response to the experiences of exile and the return, the subsequent preoccupation with a sense of belonging, the blurring of the traditional understanding of borders triggered by a permanent sense of displacement, and ... -
From disappearing narrators to signs of the author: images of the subject in the short stories of Silvina Ocampo
(University of Kansas, 2002-12-31)This study proposes an in-depth study of subjectivity in Silvina Ocampo's short stories. In the first chapter of this study, I investigate the mechanisms by which self-generation paradoxically elicits the disappearance of ... -
Voice Of America : an inside look at its Africa Division
(University of Kansas, 1990-12-31)Communication is a very intricate phenomenon, especially when there is any amount of "noise" in the channel of communication. The best communication is probably between people who have been in the same place throughout ... -

(University of Kansas, 1955-05-31)The purposes of this thesis are, therefore, three-fold: (1) to unite in a formal presentation a. the available material which will give the English faculty and administrators of Lawrence High School a factual description ... -
Measurement of Adenovirus-Based Vector Heterogeneity (Dataset)
(Elsevier, 2022)Adenovirus vectors have become an important class of vaccines with the recent approval of Ebola and COVID-19 products. In-process quality attribute data collected during Adenovirus vector manufacturing has focused on ... -
An experimental production of Irwin Shaw’s Bury the Dead
(University of Kansas, 1950-08-31)It is the purpose of this thesis to present in simple stage terms a summary of the director's interpretation and its application in an experimental production of Bury the Dead -
An investigation of the theory of the dispersion formula for nuclear reactions
(University of Kansas, 1949-08-31)The purpose of this investigation is to gain insight into the theory of nuclear structure and the theory of resonances in scattering processes. -
Methodological considerations of microdialysis sampling for determination of cerebral basal glucose concentration in extracellular space of freely moving rat
(University of Kansas, 1998-05-31)In the recent past there has been a controversy about the basal glucose levels in the brain of freely moving rats. Kinetic rate constants and transport parameters across the blood brain barrier and in the brain tissue ... -

Activating dinitrogen for chemical looping ammonia Synthesis: Mn nitride layer growth modeling
(Chemical Engineering Science, 2022-04-28)The earth-abundant transition metal manganese (Mn) has been shown to activate dinitrogen (N2) and store nitrogen (N) as nitride for subsequent chemical reaction, for example, to produce ammonia (NH3). Chemical looping ... -
Activating dinitrogen for chemical looping ammonia synthesis: nitridation of manganese
(Journal of Materials Science, 2021-04-23)The earth-abundant transition metal manganese (Mn) has been shown to be useful to activate dinitrogen at atmospheric pressure and elevated temperature by forming bulk Mn nitrides. Mn nitrides could then be used, for example, ... -
