Results. Fig. 6 illustrates the influence of reconstructed point cloud density on our decomposition, on the synthetic dataset. Fig. 7 shows a comparison between our decomposition on the Doll scene, and the results of previous approaches. Fig. 8 compares our results with those of a user-assisted method [Bousseau et al. 2009]. Fig. 9 shows a comparison between our decomposition and that obtained ...

A large-eddy simulation (LES) model, which adopts wave-averaged equations with vortex force, is used to investigate Langmuir turbulence and ocean boundary layer (OBL) dynamics in high-wind hurricane conditions. The temporally evolving spatially asymmetric wind and wave Stokes drift velocity imposed in the LES are generated by a spectral wave prediction model adapted to Hurricane Frances traveli...

We demonstrate a microfabricated atomic clock physics package based on coherent population trapping (CPT) on the D1 line of 87Rb atoms. The package occupies a volume of 12 mm3 and requires 195 mW of power to operate at an ambient temperature of 200 degrees C. Compared to a previous microfabricated clock exciting the D2 transition in Cs [1], this 87Rb clock shows significantly improved short- an...

A pulsar model is proposed which involves the entire magnetosphere in the production of the observed coherent radio emission. The observationally-inferred regularity of peaks in pulsar profiles (Rankin (1990,1993a)), is shown to suggest that inner and outer cones of emission near the polar cap interact with and ‘mirror’ two rings in the outer magnetosphere: one where the null line intersects th...

We analyze the problem of resolving two point-sources in case mutually coherent sources with arbitrary quantum statistics, mutual phase, relative and absolute intensity. use a sensitivity measure based on method moments compare direct imaging spatial mode demultiplexing, analytically proving advantage latter. show that demultiplexing saturates Fisher information, for all known cases, even non-G...

Laser–atom interaction can be an efficient mechanism for the production of coherent electrons. We analyze the dynamics of monoenergetic electrons in the presence of uniform, perpendicular magnetic and electric fields. The Green function technique is used to derive analytic results for the field– induced quantum mechanical drift motion of i) single electrons and ii) a dilute Fermi gas of electro...

In bringing high end performance to low cost workstation hardware, the level of efficiency in the interconnection of many individual nodes will be a key factor for the overall system performance. In this paper basic performance characteristics as throughput and latency is measured on state-of-the-art workstations connected by SCI (Scalable Coherent Interface) based I/O adapters. The flexibility...
