Shedding light on the MRI-driven dynamo in a stratified shearing box

We study the magneto-rotational instability (MRI) dynamo in a geometrically thin disc (H/R < 1) using stratified zero net (vertical) flux shearing box simulations. We find that mean fields and electromotive forces (EMFs) oscillate with a primary frequency ...

Observation of non-reciprocal harmonic conversion in real sounds

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Hervé Lissek, Xinxin Guo

Reciprocity guarantees that in most media, sound transmission is symmetric between two points of space when the location of the source and receiver are interchanged. This fundamental law can be broken in non-linear media, often at the cost of detrimental i ...

Computationally-Efficient Synchrophasor Estimation: Delayed In-Quadrature Interpolated DFT

Mario Paolone, Cesar Garcia Veloso

The paper proposes a synchropahsor estimation (SE) algorithm that leverages the use of a delayed in-quadrature complex signal to mitigate the self-interference of the fundamental tone. The estimator, which uses a three-point IpDFT combined with a three-cyc ...

Demonstration of Multiple Kerr-Frequency-Comb Generation Using Different Lines From Another Kerr Comb Located Up To 50 km Away

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Fatemeh Alishahi, Lin Zhang, Ahmad Fallahpour

On-chip Kerr frequency combs are potentially promising to enhance many applications because of their broad-band operation and chip-scale integration. Such combs offer various mutually coherent optical carriers that can potentially be used as both coherent ...

A Novel Measure of Instantaneous Baroreflex Sensitivity

Jean-Marc Vesin, Sasan Yazdani, Miljan Petrovic

Various time- and frequency-based approaches have been proposed to measure baroreflex sensitivity. All these methods are block-based ones. This study proposes a novel instantaneous measure of baroreflex sensitivity that enables the investigation of frequen ...

Highly-sensitive distributed birefringence measurements based on a two-pulse interrogation of a dynamic Brillouin grating

Luc Thévenaz, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez, Andrey Denisov

A method for distributed birefringence measurements is proposed based on the interference pattern generated by the interrogation of a dynamic Brillouin grating (DBG) using two short consecutive optical pulses. Compared to existing DBG interrogation techniq ...

Binaural beats increase interhemispheric alpha-band coherence between auditory cortices

Marco Solcà

Binaural beats (BBs) are an auditory illusion occurring when two tones of slightly different frequency are presented separately to each ear. BBs have been suggested to alter physiological and cognitive processes through synchronization of the brain hemisph ...

Analytic derivation of the (k/j)-order modulation envelopes in the sum of two mistuned (co)sine waves

Isaac Amidror

The beating effects which may occur in the sum of two mistuned cosine (or sine) functions whose frequencies f1, f2 satisfy f2 ≈ (k/j)f1 (where k/j is a reduced integer ratio) are known as “beats of mistuned consonances”. They have already been investigated ...

Experimental assessment of active electroacoustic absorbers for broadband room modes damping

Hervé Lissek, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet, Sami Driss Karkar, Véronique Adam

Active electroacoustic absorbers are membrane absorbers actuated, through a feedback control loop and an electromechanical driver, so as to present optimal sound absorption on a broadband range around the membrane resonance. Taking advantage of the low res ...

Method for Increasing the Operating Distance of MEMS LIDAR beyond Brownian Noise Limitation

Niels Quack

A LIDAR based on a MEMS tunable VCSEL uses resonance tuning to increase the maximum range ten-fold. A novel demodulator reduces the peak electrical beat frequency from 52GHz to 235MHz for compatibility with standard CMOS. ...
