The constitution of β-glucosan and its relationship to glucose, starch and cellulose
(University of St Andrews, 1923) - ThesisThe thesis is divided into two parts, which in turn are subdivided as follows: Account of the various methods for the preparation of glucosan. Proof of the constitution of glucosan, together with the general problem of its ... -
Constraining ecosystem processes from tower fluxes and atmospheric profiles
(2011-07) - Journal articleThe planetary boundary layer (PBL) provides an important link between the scales and processes resolved by global atmospheric sampling/modeling and site-based flux measurements. The PBL is in direct contact with the land ... -
Constraining planet structure from stellar chemistry : the cases of CoRoT-7, Kepler-10, and Kepler-93
(2015-08-17) - Journal articleAims. We explore the possibility that the stellar relative abundances of different species can be used to constrain the bulk abundances of known transiting rocky planets. Methods. We use high resolution spectra to derive ... -
Constraining the structure of the transition disk HD 135344B (SAO 206462) by simultaneous modeling of multiwavelength gas and dust observations
(2014-07-10) - Journal articleContext. Constraining the gas and dust disk structure of transition disks, particularly in the inner dust cavity, is a crucial step toward understanding the link between them and planet formation. HD 135344B is an accreting ... -
Constructed service : gendered discourses across the United States military
(University of St Andrews, 2013-11-30) - ThesisThe status of female service members in the United States military evolved significantly during the years between 2001 and 2013 due primarily to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the changing nature of warfare, and military ... -
Constructing 2-generated subgroups of the group of homeomorphisms of Cantor space
(University of St Andrews, 2017) - ThesisWe study finite generation, 2-generation and simplicity of subgroups of H[sub]c, the group of homeomorphisms of Cantor space. In Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 we run through foundational concepts and notation. In Chapter 3 we ... -
Constructing a common EU policy vis-à-vis the East : managing identity, normativity, morality and interests in talk
(University of St Andrews, 2011) - ThesisIn order to appreciate the wider implication of EU foreign policy and the role of the EU as a global actor, it is essential to consider how constructions of EU foreign policy are accounted for, by practitioners, within ... -
Constructing a global counterterrorist legislation database: dilemmas, procedures, and preliminary analyses
(Centre for the Study of Terrorism and Political Violence, University of St Andrews, 2011-11-11) - Journal articleCounterterrorist legislation is one of the main ways in which countries, particularly democracies, respond to terror attacks. Yet, there is to date no comprehensive cross-national database of counterterrorist legislation. ... -
Constructing active architectures in the ArchWare ADL
(University of St Andrews, 2003) - ReportSoftware that cannot change is condemned to atrophy: it cannot accommodate the constant revision and re-negotiation of its business goals nor intercept the potential of new technology. To accommodate change in such systems ... -
Constructing flag-transitive, point-imprimitive designs
(2016-05-04) - Journal articleWe give a construction of a family of designs with a specified point-partition and determine the subgroup of automorphisms leaving invariant the point-partition. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a design in ... -
Constructing more informative plant-pollinator networks : visitation and pollen deposition networks in a heathland plant community
(2015-09-02) - Journal articleInteraction networks are widely used as tools to understand plant–pollinator communities, and to examine potential threats to plant diversity and food security if the ecosystem service provided by pollinating animals ... -
Constructing the retail investor : performativity and power in the market for investment services
(2013-06) - Conference paperThis paper examines retail investment as a practice performed by marketing knowledge and highlights the power effects of market devices. Using a qualitative study of retail investors in the United Kingdom, it considers the ... -
Construction and performance of a dilution-refrigerator based spectroscopic-imaging scanning tunneling microscope
(2013-01-30) - Journal articleWe report on the set-up and performance of a dilution-refrigerator based spectroscopic imaging scanning tunneling microscope. It operates at temperatures below 10 mK and in magnetic fields up to 14T. The system allows for ... -
Construction and representation of identities in football museums: a comparative study
(University of St Andrews, 2015-06) - ThesisThis thesis aims at providing a cross-cultural study of how football museums represent and construct identities, both collective and personal. The research is based on a multi-sited ethnography at selected football museums ... -
Construction of an internally B3N3-doped nanographene molecule
(2015-07-06) - Journal articleThe synthesis of a hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC) with a central borazine core is described. The solid state structure of this BN doped HBC (BN-HBC) is isotypic with that of parent HBC. Scanning tunneling microscopy ... -
