We report on a holographic probing technique that allows for measurement of free-electron distribution with fine spatial detail. Plasma is generated by focusing a femtosecond pulse in air. We also demonstrate the capability of the holographic technique of ...
An optical fibre sensing technique for the measurement of dynamic deformations using a Michelson interferometer is reported. The method applied to interferometers with an initial path unbalance of around 1 cm is based on the rf intensity modulation of a lo ...
In this paper, we address the problem of dynamic protocol update (DPU) that requires global coordination of local code replacements. We propose a novel approach to DPU. The key idea is the use of synchronization facilities of the services that get updated. ...
A system for full-field laser Doppler blood flow imaging has been developed and tested on biomedical samples. The new imaging system allows 2D flow maps or monitoring flux signals to be obtained from a plurality of measured points simultaneously by using a ...
Dual-color cross-correlation spectroscopy allows the detection and quantification of labeled biomolecules at ultra-low concentrations, whereby the sensitivity of the assay correlates with the measurement time. We now describe a parallel multifocal dual-col ...
The invention relates to an interferometer system (41), especially for use in a co-ordinate measuring system. Said interferometer system comprises, disposed in an illumination beam path, a pair of spaced-apart boundary surfaces (52, 53). A boundary surface ...
A new method of measuring joint angle using a combination of accelerometers and gyroscopes is presented. The method proposes a minimal sensor configuration with one sensor module mounted on each segment. The model is based on estimating the acceleration of ...
There is a real need for methods to allow the measurement of the form and deformation of large objects. For example, for maintenance and production costs as well as for security. Even though there are many methods of measuring the form and deformation of s ...
We report on a measurement of the branching fractions for B- → D()+π- ℓ -v̄ℓ and B̄0 → D ()0π+ℓ-v̄ℓ with 275 × 106 BB̄ events collected at the γ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at KEKB. Events are tagged by fully reconstructing one of the B mesons ...
For the development of high precision mobile microrobots with a size of about one cm3, capable of micromanipulation tasks, small and precise actuators have to be developed in order to provide the microrobot and its manipulation tools with the required degr ...
