Rotational Brownian motion the absorption tends toward a maximum and then declines with increasing frequency. The breakdown in Debye's theory in these regimes can be corrected by including inertial effects; allowing the molecules to be non-spherical; including dipole-dipole interactions between molecules; etc. These are computationally very difficult problems and rotational Brownian motion is a topic of much current research interest. Rotational Brownian motion Rotational Brownian motion is the random change in the orientation of a polar molecule due to collisions with other molecules. It is an important element of theories of dielectric materials. The polarization of a dielectric material is a competition between
Brownian Motion Ultimate squared off against defending champions Colorado. Colorado, led by 2004 Callahan Award winner Josh "Richter" Ackley and sophomore Beau Kittredge, had had a more successful spring season than Brown, but the two teams had not yet faced each other. The night before the game, Brown's Josh Ziperstein was announced the 2005 Callahan Award winner, leading to a rare occurrence of two Callahan Award winners playing against each other in the finals. Brown defeated Colorado 15-14 in a game that featured incredible plays by both Brown and Colorado. 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1996 Brownian Motion Ultimate Brownian
