Bistable Linear Electro-Optical Switching In The B-7 ' Phase Of Novel Bent-Core, S. Umadevi, Antal Jakli, B. K. Sadashiva
Bistable Linear Electro-Optical Switching In The B-7 ' Phase Of Novel Bent-Core, S. Umadevi, Antal Jakli, B. K. Sadashiva
Antal Jakli
Three novel symmetrical bent-core compounds were synthesized where the terminal alkoxy linkages of the original bent-core inesogen forming a B-2 phase was converted to n-alkyl carboxylates. It is found that instead of the B-2 phase, all three compounds exhibit a transition between B-7' and B-2 mesophases. The physical and electro-optical properties have been investigated by polarizing optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction and electric field experiments. The higher temperature B-7' phase has been shown to exhibit bistable but analogous linear electro-optical Switching Without,my observable polarization peak. We analyze two theoretical models and find that a local triclinic symmetry may …
Compression Of Laser Radiation In Plasmas Via Electromagnetic Cascading, Serguei Y. Kalmykov, Gennady Shvets
Compression Of Laser Radiation In Plasmas Via Electromagnetic Cascading, Serguei Y. Kalmykov, Gennady Shvets
Serge Youri Kalmykov
A train of few-laser-cycle relativistically intense radiation spikes with a terahertz repetition rate can be organized self-consistently in plasma from two frequency detuned co-propagating laser beams of low intensity. Large frequency bandwidth for the compression of spikes is produced via laser-induced periodic modulation of the plasma refractive index. The beat-wave-driven electron plasma wave downshifted from the plasma frequency creates a moving index grating thus inducing a periodic phase modulation of the driving laser (in spectral terms, electromagnetic cascading). The group velocity dispersion compresses the chirped laser beat notes to a few-cycle duration and relativistic intensity either concurrently in the same, …

Homeland Security: Engaging The Frontlines - Symposium Proceedings, George H. Baker, Cheryl J. Elliott
George H Baker
The rise of the American homeland security endeavor under the leadership of the new Department of Homeland Security has been heralded by several major national strategy documents. These documents have served to organize efforts at top levels within the government and industry. However, the national strategy guidance is not getting to many organizations and people at the grass-roots level who can make the most difference in preventing attacks, protecting systems, and recovering from catastrophic events, viz. the general citizenry, private infrastructure owners, and local governments. To better understand grass-roots issues and solutions, James Madison University, in cooperation with the Federal …
Microlensing Of Circumstellar Envelopes Iii. Line Profiles From Stellar Winds In Homologous Expansion., M. A. Hendry, R. Ignace, H. M. Bryce
Microlensing Of Circumstellar Envelopes Iii. Line Profiles From Stellar Winds In Homologous Expansion., M. A. Hendry, R. Ignace, H. M. Bryce
Richard Ignace
This paper examines line profile evolution due to the linear expansion of circumstellar material obsverved during a microlensing event. This work extends our previous papers on emission line profile evolution from radial and azimuthal flow during point mass lens events and fold caustic crossings. Both “flavours” of microlensing were shown to provide effective diagnostics of bulk motion in circumstellar envelopes. In this work a different genre of flow is studied, namely linear homologous expansion, for both point mass lenses and fold caustic crossings. Linear expansion is of particular relevance to the effects of microlensing on supernovae at cosmological distances. We …

Velocity Imaging For The Liquid–Gas Interface In The Near Field Of An Atomizing Spray: Proof Of Concept, David L. Sedarsky, Megan E. Paciaroni, Mark A. Linne, James R. Gord, Terrence R. Meyer
Terrence R Meyer
We describe adaptation of ballistic imaging for the liquid core of an atomizing spray. To describe unambiguously the forces that act to break apart the liquid core in a spray, one must directly measure the force vectors themselves. It would be invaluable, therefore, to obtain velocity and acceleration data at the liquid-gas interface. We employ double-image ballistic imaging to extract velocity information through the application of image analysis algorithms. This method is shown to be effective for liquid phase droplet features within the resolution limit of the imaging system. In light of these results, it is clear that a three- …

Nonlinear Evolution Of The Plasma Beat Wave: Compressing The Laser Beat Notes Via Electromagnetic Cascading, Serguei Y. Kalmykov, Gennady Shvets
Serge Youri Kalmykov
The near-resonant beat wave excitation of an electron plasma wave (EPW) can be employed for generating the trains of few-femtosecond electromagnetic (EM) pulses in rarefied plasmas. The EPW produces a comoving index grating that induces a laser phase modulation at the difference frequency. As a result, the cascade of sidebands red and blue shifted by integer multiples of the beat frequency is generated in the laser spectrum. The bandwidth of the phase-modulated laser is proportional to the product of the plasma length, laser wavelength, and amplitude of the electron density perturbation. When the beat frequency is lower than the electron …

The Polarization Signature From Microlensing Of Circumstellar Envelopes In Caustic Cossing Events., R. Ignace, J. E. Bjorkman, H. M. Bryce
Richard Ignace
In recent years, it has been shown that microlensing is a powerful tool for examining the atmospheres of stars in the Galactic bulge and Magellanic Clouds. The high gradient of magnification across the source during both small impact parameter events and caustic crossings offers a unique opportunity for determining the surface brightness profile of the source. Furthermore, models indicate that these events can also provide an appreciable polarization signal: arising from differential magnification across the otherwise symmetric source. Earlier work has addressed the signal from a scattering photosphere for both point mass lenses and caustic crossings. In a previous paper, …

Multivariate Expansion Associated With Sheffer-Type Polynomials And Operators, Tian-Xiao He, Leetsch Hsu, Peter Shiue
Tian-Xiao He
With the aid of multivariate Sheffer-type polynomials and differential operators, this paper provides two kinds of general expansion formulas, called respectively the first expansion formula and the second expansion formula, that yield a constructive solution to the problem of the expansion of A(ˆt)f([g(t)) (a composition of any given formal power series) and the expansion of the multivariate entire functions in terms of multivariate Sheffer-type polynomials, which may be considered an application of the first expansion formula and the Sheffer-type operators. The results are applicable to combinatorics and special function theory.

Improved Buehler Limits Based On Refined Designated Statistics , Chris Lloyd, Paul Kabaila
Improved Buehler Limits Based On Refined Designated Statistics , Chris Lloyd, Paul Kabaila
Chris J. Lloyd
The Buehler upper confidence limit is as small as possible, subject to the constraints that (a) its coverage probability never falls below nimonal and (b) it is a non-decreasing function of a designated statistic. The designated statistic may have ties among its possible values.
We prove that breaking such ties by a sufficiently small
modification can never increase the Buehler limit. We also prove that, under commonly satisfied conditions, breaking ties by a sufficiently small modification will result in an improved i.e. smaller Buehler limit. We conclude that designated statistics should not contain ties, apart from ties justified by symmetry …

Detecting Acromegaly: Screening For Disease With A Morphable Model, Erik G. Learned-Miller, Qifeng Lung, Angela Paisley, Peter Trainer, Volker Blanz, Katrin Dedden, Ralph Miller
Erik G Learned-Miller
Acromegaly is a rare disorder which affects about 50 of every million people. The disease typically causes swelling of the hands, feet, and face, and eventually permanent changes to areas such as the jaw, brow ridge, and cheek bones. The disease is often missed by physicians and progresses beyond where it might if it were identified and treated earlier. We consider a semi-automated approach to detecting acromegaly, using a novel combination of support vector machines (SVMs) and a morphable model. Our training set consists of 24 frontal photographs of acromegalic patients and 25 of disease-free subjects. We modelled each subject's …

Privacy Issues Of Applying Rfid In Retail Industry, Haifei Li, Patrick C.K. Hung, Jia Zhang, David Ahn
Jia Zhang
This case study describes the privacy issues of applying Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) in the retail industry. With the dramatic price drop of RFID tags, it is possible that RFID be applied to individual items sold by a retailer. However, the RFID technology poses critical privacy challenges. In this study, we analyze the potential privacy issue of RFID utilization, and we propose a privacy authorization model aiming for precisely defining RFID privacy policies for the retail industry.
On The Convergence Of The Summation Formulas Constructed By Using A Symbolic Operator Approach, Tian-Xiao He, Leetsch C. Hsu, Peter J.-S. Shiue
On The Convergence Of The Summation Formulas Constructed By Using A Symbolic Operator Approach, Tian-Xiao He, Leetsch C. Hsu, Peter J.-S. Shiue
Tian-Xiao He
This paper deals with the convergence of the summation of power series of the form Σa ≤ k ≤ bf(k)xk, where 0 ≤ a ≤ b < ∞, and {f(k)} is a given sequence of numbers with k ∈ [a, b) or f(t) a differentiable function defined on [a, b). Here, the summation is found by using the symbolic operator approach shown in [1]. We will give a different type of the remainder of the summation formulas. The convergence of the corresponding power series will be determined consequently. Several examples such as the generalized Euler's transformation series will also be given. In addition, we will compare the convergence of the given series transforms.
