Intensive studies have been carried out on the rotational spectra of various isotopic species of ketene, H2C = C = 0 , since 1950 [ 1 6 ] . The centrifugal distortion analysis of ketene [3, 4 ] , together with information from additional infrared data [3, 5 ] , enabled Mallinson and Nemes [6] to reevaluate the molecular force field for ketene. Recently, microwave investigations on the higher ho...

We characterize the dispersion relation for electromagnetic-wave propagation in two-dimensional dielectric arrays, using the coherent microwave transient spectroscopy technique. Results of measurements along various symmetry directions of square and triangular lattices are presented. The experimental results are in excellent agreement with theoretical calculations made by using the plane-wave e...

Gravitational waves provide a laboratory for general relativity and a window to energetic astrophysical phenomena invisible with electromagnetic radiation. Several terrestrial detectors are currently under construction, and a space-based interferometer is envisioned for launch early next century to detect test-mass motions induced by waves of relatively short wavelength. Very-long-wavelength gr...

We present the application to transmission line systems of a new theory of the optical theorem that describes the energy budget of electromagnetic scattering in lossless wave propagation media. The insight gained by exploring this, simplest of the electromagnetic wave propagation systems from the point of view of the optical theorem, is important for understanding power budget of electromagneti...

Trade-off studies on spectral coverage, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and spectral resolution for a hyperspectral infrared (IR) sounder on a geostationary satellite are summarized. The data density method is applied for the vertical resolution analysis, and the rms error between true and retrieved profiles is used to represent the retrieval accuracy. The effects of spectral coverage, SNR, and sp...

The present study was aimed to investigate behavioural and biochemical effects of chronic exposure of amplitude modulated and non-modulated microwave radiation on laboratory mice. Chronic microwave exposures were executed with 2.45 GHz of either modulated (power density, 0.029 mW/cm2; specific absorption rate, 0.019 W/Kg with sinusoidal modulation of 400 Hz) or nonmodulated continuous sinusoida...

The design and performance of a continuous wave dual-frequency multifunction lidar system is presented. The system is based on the use of the nonlinear dynamics of an optically injected semiconductor laser. Under proper operating conditions, the laser emits a dual-frequency beam with a broadly tunable microwave separation. The two optical lines are coherently locked to each other using an exter...

1. ABSTRACT The multi-layer dense media radiative transfer (DMRT) theory based on the quasicrystalline approximation (QCA) has been applied for studying both passive and active microwave remote sensing signatures [1], [2]. It is shown that the layered structure is essential to analyze the microwave emission from snow because high frequency is sensitive to the scattering from the medium top and ...
