Stabilization in H ∞ R ( D )

It is shown that for H∞ R (D) functions f1 and f2 with inf z∈D (|f1(z)|+ |f2(z)|) ≥ δ > 0 and f1 being positive on the real zeros of f2, then there exists H∞ R (D) functions g2 and g1, g−1 1 with norm controlled by a constant depending only on δ and g1f1 + g2f2 = 1 ∀z ∈ D. These results are connected to the computation of the stable rank of the algebra H∞ R (D) and to results in Control Theory.

Collimator R&d Collimator R&d

The importance of collimator R&D with test beam facilities is demonstrated with the example of ILC collimator studies at SLAC End Station A. Related LHC collimator aspects and longer term plans are addressed. Presented at IDTB07, ILC Detector Test Beam workshop, Fermilab, USA, 2007.

The Management of Formalisation Processes in R&D Collaboration

This paper examines the process leading to a formalised co-operation. A comparative case study of Research and Development (R&D) collaborations illustrates how, during the process of formalising, the creation of shared understanding of the co-operation is supported or hindered. When participants are involved in setting goals, writing work plans, and creating the rules for the co-operation, each...
