In this paper we carry out an asymptotic analysis of the elastic wave equations in random media in the parabolic white-noise regime. In this regime, the propagation distance is much larger than the initial beam width, which is itself much larger than the typical wavelength; moreover, the correlation length of the random medium is of the same order as the initial beam width, and the amplitude of...

In this paper, iterative multi-user detection techniques for multi-beam communications are presented. The solutions are based on a successive interference cancellation architecture and a channel decoding to treat the co-channel interference. Beams forming and channels coefficients are estimated and updated iteratively. A developed technique of signals combining allows power improvement of the u...

We report the development of a multiplex stimulated Raman microscope for spectral imaging through multi-channel lock-in detection with a single light source. A white pump beam is prepared with a piece of photonic crystal fiber (PCF). The system does not require the synchronization of plural light sources or the scanning of their wavelengths, and thus a jitter-free pair of pump and Stokes beams ...

The classical Stoney formula relating local equibiaxial film stress to local equibiaxial substrate curvature is not well equipped to handle realistic cases where the film misfit strain, the plate system curvature, and the film thickness and resulting film stress vary with in-plane position. In Part I of this work we have extended the Stoney formula to cover arbitrarily non-uniform film thicknes...

The reflection of light is governed by the laws first described by Augustin-Jean Fresnel: on internal reflection, light acquires a phase shift, which depends on its polarization direction with respect to the plane of incidence. For a conical reflector, the cylindrical symmetry is echoed in an angular variation of this phase shift, allowing us to create light modes with phase and polarization si...

High-quality single-crystal and polycrystalline chemical-vapor-deposition diamond detectors with platinum contacts have been tested at the white-beam X28C beamline at the National Synchrotron Light Source under high-flux conditions. The voltage dependence of these devices has been measured under both DC and pulsed-bias conditions, establishing the presence or absence of photoconductive gain in ...

Abstract. The GKSS Forschungszentrum Geesthacht, Germany, will setup a new high-energy beamline specialized for texture, strain and imaging measurements for materials science at the Hamburger Synchrotronstrahlungslabor HASYLAB of the Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY. Four different experiments will be installed at the new wiggler HARWI-II. The high pressure cell will be run by the GFZ Pots...

The relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of 252Cf neutrons and synchrotron-generated high-energy charged particles for mutation induction was evaluated as a function of linear energy transfer (LET), using the loss of heterozygosity for wing-hair mutations and the reversion of the mutant white-ivory eye-color in Drosophila melanogaster. Loss of heterozygosity for wing-hair mutations results p...

We study the effect of additive noise to inversion FIOs associated a diffeomorphic canonical relation. use microlocal defect measures measure power spectrum in phase space and analyze how that is transformed under inversion. In general, white noise, for example, mapped depending on position direction. particular, we compute standard deviation, locally, added as function deviation data. As an Ra...

Significant differences are found between the mean spectral widths from beams in the meridional plane and in the zonal plane at both the MU and the White Sands VHF radars. The spectral width in the beam directed perpendicular to the prevailing wind is greater than that in the beam parallel to the wind. The magnitudes of the differences in spectral width show a linear relationship with wind spee...
