Colonial Reformation: Religion, Empire, and the Origins of Modern Social Thought
(2022-05-02)This dissertation tells a new story about the origins of the modern European social sciences. I set out to understand why the founders of French sociology and anthropology, including Émile Durkheim, Marcel Mauss, and Claude ... -
Colony Writing: Creative Community in the Age of Revolt
(2016-05-18)This dissertation studies the impact of a form of literary patronage, domestic writers’ colonies, on U.S. literary production in first half of the twentieth century. I discuss Provincetown, Massachusetts; Taos and Santa ... -
Color Constancy Beyond Bags of Pixels
(IEEE Computer Society Press, 2008)Estimating the color of a scene illuminant often plays a central role in computational color constancy. While this problem has received significant attention, the methods that exist do not maximally leverage spatial ... -
Color Distributions, Number, and Mass Densities of Massive Galaxies at 1.5 < Z < 3: Comparing Observations with Merger Simulations
(American Astronomical Society, 2009)We present a comparison between the observed color distribution, number, and mass density of massive galaxies at 1.5 < z < 3 and a model by Hopkins et al. that relates the quasar and galaxy population on the basis ... -
Color fields on the light-shell
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2016)We study the classical color radiation from very high energy collisions that produce colored particles. In the extreme high energy limit, the classical color fields are confined to a light-shell expanding at c and are ... -
Colored trails: A multiagent system testbed for decision-making research (demonstration)
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2008)With increasing frequency, computer agents participate in collaborative and competitive multiagent domains in which humans reason strategically to make decisions. The deployment of computer agents in such domains requires ... -
Colorimetric Ethanol Indicator Based on Instantaneous, Localized Wetting of a Photonic Crystal
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2019-12-06)Easy-to-use sensors for ethanol solutions have broad applications ranging from monitoring alcohol quality to combating underage drinking. Although there are a number of electronic and colorimetric sensors available for ... -
Colors of 2625 Quasars at 0 < z < 5 Measured in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Photometric System
(IOP Publishing, 2001)We present an empirical investigation of the colors of quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometric system. The sample studied includes 2625 quasars with SDSS photometry: 1759 quasars found during SDSS ... -
The colours of satellite galaxies in the Illustris simulation
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014)Observationally, the fraction of blue satellite galaxies decreases steeply with host halo mass, and their radial distribution around central galaxies is significantly shallower in massive (M* ≥ 1011 M⊙) than in Milky ... -
Colston E. Warne Lecture: Is it Time for Another Round of Consumer Protection? The Lessons of Twentieth-Century U.S. History
(John Wiley & Sons, 2010)The first year of Barack Obama's presidency has returned consumer issues to center stage, with several contentious struggles over consumer protection. This moment can be viewed as a fourth wave of the twentieth-century ... -

The Columbian Exchange: A History of Disease, Food, and Ideas
(American Economic Association, 2010)This paper provides an overview of the long-term impacts of the Columbian Exchange -- that is, the exchange of diseases, ideas, food crops, technologies, populations, and cultures between the New World and the Old World ... -
Combating Infertility: Machine Learning for Clinical Decision Support
(2022-06-03)One in eight couples is affected by infertility in the United States. In vitro fertilization (IVF) is the most popular treatment option. Unfortunately, the process is time-consuming (1-2 months), costly (\$12,000-15,000), ... -
Combating transnational crime: The role of learning and norm diffusion in the current rule of law wave
(Cambridge University Press, 2018-01-24) -
Combative Pasts: Politics and Remembering in the Post-Communist Space
(2014-02-25)More than two decades after the Polish Roundtable Agreement inaugurated the collapse of the Soviet Bloc, political conversations in the post-communist space remain remarkably attuned to symbolic and ethical questions. ... -
Combination Antibiotic-Focused Machine Learning Models for Integration into Experimental Workflows
(2022-06-02)Antibiotic resistance is a growing crisis with far-reaching impacts on public and global health [1][2]. With antibiotic resistance impeding the efficacy of antibiotics and the discovery of new antibiotics slowing [2], ... -
Combination of inclusive and differential tt charge asymmetry measurements using ATLAS and CMS data at √s = 7 and 8 TeV
This paper presents combinations of inclusive and differential measurements of the charge asymmetry (AC) in top quark pair (tt) events with a lepton+jets signature by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations, using data from LHC ... -
Combination of searches for heavy resonances decaying into bosonic and leptonic final states using 36 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector
(American Physical Society (APS), 2018-09-26)Searches for new heavy resonances decaying into different pairings of W, Z, or Higgs bosons, as well as directly into leptons, are presented using a data sample corresponding to 36.1 fb−1 of pp collisions at pffiffi s 1⁄4 ... -
Combination of the Searches for Pair-Produced Vectorlike Partners of the Third-Generation Quarks at s=13 TeV with the ATLAS Detector
(American Physical Society (APS), 2018-11-20)A combination of the searches for pair-produced vectorlike partners of the top and bottom quarks in various decay channels (T → Zt=Wb=Ht, B → Zb=Wt=Hb) is performed using 36.1 fb−1 of pp collision data at s 1⁄4 13 TeV with ...
