Time resolved laser induced incandescence (LII) technique is used to measure size distribution of soot nanoparticles of candle's flame. Pulsed Nd:YAG laser is used to heat nanoparticles to incandescence temperature and the resulting signal is measured. Mass and energy balance equations are numerically solved to calculate temperature of soot particles in low fluence regime. Assuming Plank black ...

Laser-induced incandescence (LII) is investigated in laminar premixed flat ethylene/air flames at pressures up to 5 bar in a recently constructed high-pressure burner. Time-resolved LII signals were compared with a numerical model considering the influence of pressure on the LII signal decay. Peak particle temperatures after laser heat up were measured by the detection of the LII signal at two ...

This paper presents a non-contact sensing system for nanosized suspended particulate matter (SPM) measurements using laser-induced incandescence (LII) and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS). The elemental composition and density of the SPMs are determined using LIBS, and particulate size measurements are accomplished using LII. Typically, temporally resolved LII enables measurement of ...

Piriform cortex in the rat is highly susceptible to induction of epileptiform activity. Experiments in vivo and in vitro indicate that this activity originates in endopiriform nucleus (EN). In slices, EN neurons are more excitable than layer II (LII) pyramidal cells, with more positive resting potentials and lower spike thresholds. We investigated potassium currents in EN and LII to evaluate th...

The development of a combined dual-pump coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) and laser-induced incandescence (LII) instrument for the spatially resolved measurement of subgrid-scale temperature/soot data in liquid-fueled pool fires is discussed. Temperature pdfs obtained from the N2 Qbranch CARS signal at the center of a 2-m-diameter toluene/methanol pool fire are summarized. A more det...

This article presents tools for soot diagnostics at elevated pressure. Investigations on laser-induced incandescence (LII) are shown in a laminar premixed ethylene/air flame at pressures up to 5 bar in a recently constructed high-pressure burner. The LII signal decay was compared to results of a numerical model taking into account the pressure-dependent heat transfer. Required input parameters ...

Li & Xing (in Li et al., 2011) established the leafhopper genus Bambusananus with the type species Bambusananus furcatus Li & Xing, 2011 from China. At the same time, three new combinations: Bambusananus binotatus (Li & Dai, 2003), Bambusananus bipunctatus (Li, 1999) and Bambusananus maculipennis (Li & Wang, 1993) were proposed (all species previously placed in the genus Sorhoanus). Subsequentl...

Layer II (LII) of the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) comprises grid cells that support spatial navigation. The firing pattern of grid cells might be explained by attractor dynamics in a network, which requires either direct excitatory connectivity between phase-specific grid cells or indirect coupling via interneurons. However, knowledge regarding local networks that support in vivo activity is...
