We describe a novel technique for performing a single-shot optical cross-correlation in nanowaveguides. Our scheme is based on four-wave mixing between two orthogonally polarized input signals propagating with different velocities due to polarization mode dispersion. The cross-correlation is determined by measuring the spectrum of the idler wave generated by the four-wave mixing process. © 2014...

This study evaluates the efficiency of cross hedging with single stock futures (SSF) contracts. We propose a new technique for hedging exposure to an individual stock that does not have options or exchange-traded SSF contracts written on it. Our method selects as a hedging instrument a portfolio of SSF contracts which are selected based on how closely matched their underlying firm characteristi...

Introduction: Previous reviews of phase 1 trials in oncology have reported a treatment response rate 4%–6% and toxicity-related mortality 0.5%. These results may not reflect current Phase trial rates for patients with lymphoma. Methods: All non-pediatric relapsed or refractory (R/R) lymphoma approved by the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program Institut Gustave Roussy between 2008 2023 (cut-off dat...

the genetics and mechanism of malathion resistance in the adults of an. stephensi (ban-s), was studied. nine successive generations of malathion selection in the adults resulted in an increase in ltso of about 3-fold. the crossing experiments indicated that the resistance is inherited as partially dominant character with no indication of sex linkage. the results of back-crosses suggested that p...
