A novel fiber-optic acoustic sensor using an erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA)-based fiber ring laser and a balanced Sagnac interferometer for acoustic sensing of the partial discharge (PD) in power transformers is proposed and demonstrated. As a technical background, an experimental investigation on how the variations of the fiber birefringence affect the sensor performances was carried out,...

We present a description, including relevant formulas and numerical estimates, of a set of polarization transfer experiments which appear to offer a feasible way to a) separate the deuteron charge and quadrupole form factors and b)measure the neutron and proton electric form factors. The experiments require a 2 to 4 GeV high-intensity, high-duty factor, longitudinally polarized electron beam, a...

A novel dualband frequency selective surface (FSS) with both a dielectric substrate and superstrate constructed by double-fourlegged loaded slots (DFLLSs) is investigated, in which each periodic cell consists of two neighboring DFLLSs with different dimensions, its resonant frequencies occur at 183 GHz and 220 GHz. Good selectivity performance can be easily achieved both in lower passband and h...

The fluorescence-based thermal shift (FTS) data presented here include Table S1 and Fig. S1, and are supplemental to our original research article describing detailed structural, FTS, and fluorescence polarization analyses of the Salmonella enterica subsp. entrica serovar Typhimurium str. LT2 multidrug transcriptional regulator AcrR (StAcrR) (doi:10.1016/j.jsb.2016.01.008) (Manjasetty et al., 2...

Several deductive formalisms (e.g., sequent, nested sequent, labeled sequent, hypersequent calculi) have been used in the literature for the treatment of modal logics, and some connections between these formalisms are already known. Here we propose a general framework, which is based on a focused version of the labeled sequent calculus by Negri, augmented with some parametric devices allowing t...

A comprehensive list of the best measured wavelengths in the In II spectrum has been compiled. Uncertainties of the wavelength measurements have been analyzed, and existing inconsistencies have been resolved. An optimized set of fine-structure energy levels that fits all observed wavelengths has been derived. Uncertainties of the energy level values have been reduced by an order of magnitude. A...

The notion of quantum embedding is considered for two classes of examples: quantum coadjoint orbits in Lie coalgebras and quantum symplectic leaves in spaces with non-Lie permutation relations. A method for constructing irreducible representations of associative algebras and the corresponding trace formulas over leaves with complex polarization are obtained. The noncommutative product on the le...

This paper presents an efficient modeling method, based on the microstrip lines theory, for the coupling between a sub­strate backplane and a device contact. We derive simple closed-form formulas for rapid extraction of substrate parasitics. We use these formulas to model spiral inductors as important substrate-noise sources in mixed-signal systems. The proposed model is verified for the freque...

we study copper corrosion inhibition by ethanolamine (eta)with (0, 0.2 ,0.3,0.4,0.5) vol.% concentrations in 100 ppm nacl solution. this work is carried out by potentiodynamic measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis). the substrates' surface morphologies are examined by scanning electron microscopy (sem). etais characterized by nmr spectra of eta1h and 13c and fourier ...
