The fractional thermal loading in a diode-end-pumped solid-state laser is deduced from experimental measurement of the critical pump power. The results show that fractional thermal loading critically depends on the pump-to-mode size ratio. This dependence is attributed to the effect of the pump-to-mode size ratio on the population inversion and to the effect of energy-transfer upconversion. Rig...

objective(s): use of a positron emission tomography (pet)/single-photonemission computed tomography (spect) system facilitates the simultaneousacquisition of images with fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18f-fdg) andtechnetium (99mtc)-tetrofosmin. however, 18f has a short half-life, and 511kev compton-scattered photons are detected in the 99mtc energy window.therefore, in this study, we aimed to ...

in this paper a control system has been designed to improve traffic conditions in car following maneuver. there are different methods to design a control system. in this paper design approach is based on the fuzzy sliding mode control (fsmc) system. the aim of designing fsmc system is to achieve safe and desire longitudinal distance and less lateral displacement. in order to control and obtain ...

In a recent paper [D.Chavan et al., Rev. Sci. Instrum. 81, 123702 (2010)] we have demonstrated that ferrule-top cantilevers, obtained by carving the end of a ferruled fiber, can be used for contact mode atomic force microscopy in ambient conditions. Here we show that those probes can provide tapping mode images at both room and cryogenic temperatures (12 K).
