In previous communications it was suggested that chromosomes of phage T4 are circularly permuted and terminally redundant.1 2 Heterozygotes formed by deletion ri mutants and r+, and by the host range alleles hI+ and h4±, were shown to behave as if they were due to this terminal redundancy.2 After infection and replication the chromosome of any one phage particle is assumed to become circularly ...

This work presents the derivation of high frequency electromagnetic field expressions for two dimensional Gregorian system embedded in a chiral medium. Two cases have been analyzed. Firstly, the chirality parameter is adjusted to support positive phase velocity (PPV) for both left circularly polarized (LCP) and right circularly polarized (RCP) modes traveling in the medium. Secondly, the chiral...

Full optical fiber current sensor phase modulation is the use of magnetic field made the refraction different of left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized light, and the linearly polarized light can be decomposed into a left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized light. The paper proposes research and design of reflective optical fiber current sensor based on improved phase modula...

Various methods of obtaining longitudinally polarized positrons for future linear col-liders are reviewed. Special attention is paid to the schemes using circularly polarized high-energy photons for positron production. Most effectively such photons are obtained from electrons passing through a helical undulator or colliding with a circularly polarized laser wave. Spectrum and polarization of r...

A novel twin-diamond-shaped antenna is presented for wideband circularly polarized (CP) radiation. By introducing a twin-diamond-shaped patch and a gap-coupled feed structure, a lefthanded circularly polarized (LHCP) antenna in bore-sight direction is obtained. The gap-coupled feed structure consists of a horizontal microstrip arm of approximately 0.285λ0 at the centre frequency and two small d...

We have investigated the electronic and magnetic structures of Sr(2)FeMoO(6) employing site-specific direct probes, namely x-ray absorption spectroscopy with linearly and circularly polarized photons. In contrast to some previous suggestions, the results clearly establish that Fe is in the formal trivalent state in this compound. With the help of circularly polarized light, it is unambiguously ...

Abstract—Circularly-polarized arrays of cavity backed slot (CBS) antennas are proposed for X-band satellite-earth communications. Two configurations of such circularly polarized arrays are investigated: cross-shaped and square-shaped arrays. Both configurations can produce right-hand circular polarization (RHCP) as well as lefthand circular polarization (LHCP) by proper setting of excitation ph...

We demonstrate that twisting one part of a chiral photonic structure about its helical axis produces a single circularly polarized localized mode that gives rise to an anomalous crossover in propagation. Up to a crossover thickness, this defect results in a peak in transmission and exponential scaling of the linewidth for a circularly polarized wave with the same handedness as structure. Above ...

We report the observation of the circular ac Hall effect where the current is solely driven by the crossed ac electric and magnetic fields of circularly polarized radiation. Illuminating an unbiased monolayer sheet of graphene with circularly polarized terahertz radiation at room temperature generates--under oblique incidence--an electric current perpendicular to the plane of incidence, whose s...
