Calculations of the dynamical critical exponent using the asymptotic series summation method

We consider how the Pad'e-Borel, Pad'e-Borel-Leroy, and conformal mapping summation methods for asymptotic series can be used to calculate the dynamical critical exponent for homogeneous and disordered Ising-like systems.Comment: 21 RevTeX pages, 2 figure

WARN and EDWAA: Use \u27em or Lose \u27em: An Interview with Greg LeRoy, Research Director, MCLR

[Editor\u27s Note] The Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act is the federal law that requires companies with 100 or more workers to provide 60 days notice of a plant closing or mass layoff. It took effect in February 1989. The Economic Dislocation and Worker Adjustment Assistance (EDWAA) Act is basically what used to be Title III of the Jobs Training Partnership Act (JTPA); it is the federal funding source for direct assistance to dislocated workers. EDWAA, which took effect in July 1989, is not just a funding pool; it includes significant but virtually unknown regulations that unions can use for job retention. WARN and EDWAA overlap. When a company gives a WARN notice, EDWAA requires the states to respond rapidly to start the delivery of adjustment services to affected workers. For the inside skivvy on the two laws, LRR Contributing Editor Greg LeRoy interviewed MCLR Research Director Greg LeRoy, who has been hawking the two laws (and their predecessors) for eight years

Oral History Project World War II Years, 1941-1946 - LeRoy Shaw

LeRoy Shaw was born 12 November 1922 in Minneapolis, and grew up there. He graduated from West High School in 1940, and then attended a vocational-technical school 1940-41, where he learned to be a mechanic. LeRoy worked briefly for Northwest Airlines, then in April 1943 was drafted into the US Army Air Corps. LeRoy was trained as a gunner on Douglas A-20 Havoc aircraft, and by early 1944 was stationed at Braintree, England, with the 416th Bomb Group Light, 668th Squadron, part of the 9th Air Force. He completed twenty-eight combat missions. On 20 May 1944, though, LeRoy\u27s plane was hit by ground fire and shot down over German-occupied France. He managed to bail out, but suffered a broken leg when landing. After interrogation at the central Dulag Luft facility, the Germans sent LeRoy to a POW hospital camp, Stalag IX-C Meiningen Lazarett, where he remained until September 1944. After recovering from his injury, LeRoy spent time at Stalag Luft IV Gross Tychow, until the Germans evacuated this camp in February 1945, and then Stalag Luft I Barth. He remained here until the camp was liberated by Red Army soldiers on 30 April 1945. American forces evacuated US soldiers from Barth in early May. LeRoy was flown to France, then back to the United States. He was discharged from service in September 1945. Again a civilian, LeRoy resumed his career as a mechanic with Northwest Airlines, retiring in 1985 with forty-three years of service. He was married in 1947 (wife Beatrice), and helped to raise four children at their home in Richfield, a Twin Cities suburb

Universal sextic effective interaction at criticality

The renormalization group approach in three dimensions is used to estimate the universal critical value g_6^* of the dimensionless sextic effective coupling constant for the Ising model. The four-loop RG expansion for g_6 is calculated and resummed by means of the Pade-Borel and Pade-Borel-Leroy procedures resulting in g_6^* = 1.596, while the most accurate estimate for g_6^* is argued to be equal to 1.61.Comment: 6 pages, TeX, no figure
