Tidal Effects on the Oort Cloud.
Color poster with text and graphs describing research conducted by Ryan Gengler, advised by Lyle A. Ford.The purpose of this project was to determine the influence of the galactic tidal force on planetesimals in the early solar system. We were specifically interested in the comparison of the tidal force compared to earlier simulations performed without this force. We compared the calculations of the semi-major axis and eccentricity between the two simulations.University of Wisconsin--Eau Claire Office of Research and Sponsored Programs
Oral History Interview: Lyle A. Smith
This interview is one of a series conducted concerning the history of Marshall University. Lyle Smith was a state senator from Cabell County. He discusses: the process of changing in Marshall\u27s status from a college to a university as well as opposition and support to that change; various political figures such as Jack McKown, Governor Barron, Carmine Cann, Kenneth Stettler, Ned Watson, and John Amos; and the liquor by the drink bill.https://mds.marshall.edu/oral_history/1255/thumbnail.jp

Simulations of the Interaction of a Binary System with a Third Star.
Color poster with text and illustrations describing research conducted by Patrese Hoffman, advised by Lyle A. Ford.A celestial binary system was simulated to analyze how its orbit is disrupted by a third body passing through the center of the system at various angles in the x-y plane. While unlikely to occur for most stars, encounters like this may play a role in the evolution of binary systems in dense groups of stars called globular clusters.University of Wisconsin--Eau Claire Office of Research and Sponsored Programs

Letter from Lyle A. Stephenson in Kansas City, Missouri to Claude D. White discussing the cancellation of Mr. White's accident insurance policy and the possibility of taking out a life insurance policy. The letter is typed on Mr. Stephenson's company stationary. There is an illustration of a sign post with the following printed on it: "Insurance Service That Serves; Lyle A. Stephenson The Insurer; Don't Forget Tenth St. Entrance R. A. Long Bldg." The phone number and address are printed at the bottom. There is an envelope with Mr. Stephenson's company information printed on it in red, and it is addressed to Mr. Claude D. White in Fort Worth, Texas

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
