    Hegel's Critique of Kant's Standpoint of Finitude

    No full text
    My central aims here are (1) to explicate and defend the claim made by Hegel and other post-Kantians that there is a contradiction at the heart of Kant’s theoretical philosophy, and (2) to provide insight into the nature of Hegel’s system by seeing how it is formed in response to this real problem in Kant. Kant is committed to a real contradiction, I claim, with his appeal to affection by the thing in itself. This appeal amounts to the claim that our reception of empirical content is unconditioned by the understanding’s activity. The claim that contradicts this emerges in Kant’s clearest explanation of how the categories make experience possible. We can see that they do so, he argues, by seeing that our reception of empirical content is conditioned by the understanding’s activity. Kant’s followers J.S. Beck and Fichte champion Kant’s latter thought. I claim that their readings are true of Kant’s best thought, even though Kant rejects them. He only rejects their interpretations because he cannot abandon the former thought. But Beck and Fichte see, as Kant does not, that a commitment to thing-in-itself affection in light of Kant’s explanation of how the categories make experience possible would constitute what Hegel later calls “a self-contradictory ambiguity.” Hegel’s critique of Kant’s “standpoint of finitude” diagnoses why Kant is led to affirm both of these incompatible thoughts. The philosophical motivation behind the shape Hegel’s system takes comes to light through an examination of this diagnosis

    Spin relaxation of muonated radicals in the gas phase

    No full text
    We report on recent results obtained for longitudinal field (T 1) spin relaxation of the muonium-substituted (“muonated”) free radicals MuCO, MuC2F4, MuC2H3F, and MuC4H8 (t-butyl), comparing with results reported earlier for MuC2H4 (and MuC2D4). Some comparison with transverse field (T 2) data is also given. These data are fit to a phenomenological model based on NMR theory of spin relaxation in gases. The parameters of these fits are presented and discussed.Peer reviewedFinal article publishedSpin RelaxationThin FilmFree RadicalRecent ResultPhenomenological Mode

    Translating between SQL and Tutorial D

    No full text
    The relational model of data has a strong influence on the database field and cannot be discarded for any future direction regarding the development of databases (Date and Darwen, 2007). Two relational database languages that are associated with this model are the Structured Query Language (SQL) and Tutorial D. The purpose of this dissertation is to translate between these two languages so that SQL clients can interoperate with a Tutorial D database via SQL. Through studying the literature, it is shown that such translation is important. It will allow the most popular relational database language (i.e. SQL) to interoperate with a true relational database language (i.e. Tutorial D) utilising its features to solve some of the deficiencies that exist in SQL. The main method conducted for this research is through implementing a translation layer between SQL and Tutorial D using direct string manipulation. The translation logic utilises some of the available methods for string manipulation to manipulate the executed SQL statements and translate them to the corresponding Tutorial D statements. The translation layer then takes care of executing the resultant Tutorial D statements on a chosen Tutorial D database called Rel. Testing the translation layer consisted of three steps. The first one is to test the translation layer against valid SQL statements to study the feasibility aspect of such translation. It is shown that all the chosen SQL statements for this step pass the test. The second step is to test the translation layer as a solution to the SQL deficiencies defined. It is shown that the test cases that are defined in this step pass the test, and thus, the translation layer solves the deficiencies of SQL. Finally, the translation layer is tested against robustness. All the invalid SQL statements defined in this step are not translated and suitable error messages are shown. Finally, the dissertation concluded with proving that the translation between SQL and Tutorial D is feasible and can be a suitable approach to solve SQL deficiencies while still using SQL.UnpublishedAtkinson, M., Bancilhon, F., DeWitt, D., Dittrich, K., Maier, D., & Zdonik, S.

    No full text
    Solvation of excess electrons in supercritical ammonia along the T = 450 K isotherm was investigated. Equilibrium aspects of solvation were analyzed using combined path integral-molecular dynamics techniques. Observations showed transition from localized to quasifree states at approximately one fourth of the triple point density.1191260446052Innovations in Supercritical Fluids, Science, and Technology (1995) ACS Symposium Series, 608. , edited by K.

    Adrenal Steroidogenesis after B Lymphocyte Depletion Therapy in New-Onset Addison\u27s Disease

    No full text
    Context: A diagnosis of Addison\u27s disease means lifelong dependence on daily glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid therapy and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality as well as a risk of unexpected adrenal crisis. Objective: The objective of the study was to determine whether immunomodulatory therapy at an early stage of autoimmune Addison\u27s disease could lead to preservation or improvement in adrenal steroidogenesis. Design and Intervention: This was an open-label, pilot study of B lymphocyte depletion therapy in new-onset idiopathic primary adrenal failure. Doses of iv rituximab (1 g) were given on d 1 and 15, after pretreatment with 125 mg iv methylprednisolone. Patients and Main Outcome Measures: Six patients (aged 17-47 yr; four females) were treated within 4wk of the first diagnosis of idiopathic primary adrenal failure. Dynamic testing of adrenal function was performed every 3 months for at least 12 months. Results: Serum cortisol levels declined rapidly and were less than 100 nmol/liter (3.6 mu g/dl) in all patients by 3 months after B lymphocyte depletion. Serum cortisol and aldosterone concentrations remained low in five of the six patients throughout the follow-up period. However, a single patient had sustained improvement in both serum cortisol [peak 434 nmol/liter (15.7 mu g/dl)] and aldosterone [peak 434 pmol/liter (15.7 ng/dl)] secretion. This patient was able to discontinue steroid medications 15 months after therapy and remains well, with improving serum cortisol levels 27 months after therapy. Conclusion: New-onset autoimmune Addison\u27s disease should be considered as a potentially reversible condition in some patients. Future studies of immunomodulation in autoimmune Addison\u27s disease may be warranted. (J Clin Endocrinol Metab 97: E1927-E1932, 2012
