Radiation Pattern Analysis of Inverted-F Antenna Mounted on the Side Wall of a Long Cylinder

An analytical technique is proposed for estimation of the radiation pattern of inverted-F antenna (IFA) which is mounted on the side wall of a long cylinder. The method can be applied to describe the IFA radiation in a lot of practical cases. It is indicated that this radiation pattern is a combination of radiation patterns of a horizontal and a vertical small radiator, near the cylinder with a...

Mirage Cosmology

A brane universe moving in a curved higher dimensional bulk space is considered. The motion induces a cosmological evolution on the universe brane that is indistinguishable from a similar one induced by matter density on the brane. The phenomenological implications of such an idea are discussed. Various mirage energy densities are found, corresponding to dilute matter driving the cosmological e...

A photothermal ”mirage” imaging system

We describe a scanning mirage microscope system that uses a diode probe laser. The sample is raster scanned using X-Y motorised microstepping stages under an Ar+ pump beam to give two dimensional scans and depth profiles. The results for a test sample are given and are compared to that obtained by scanning using a conventional large photoacoustic (PA) cell.
