Exergetic analysis is derived from the First and Second Laws of thermodynamics is shown to be an excellent tool to analyse and characterize industrial processes. A coherent link to pinch technology is shown which allows the designer to extend design consid ...
The influence of coherent optical pumping in semiconductor lasers is investigated theoretically. In particular the mathematical conditions under which an optically pumped system behaves like an electrically (incoherently) pumped system are derived. We show ...
Double-resonance overtone excitation prepares HOCl molecules in single rovibrational states above the unimolecular dissociation threshold in the ground electronic state, Detecting the OH dissociation fragments allows us to observe which reactant states lie ...
We present a purely group-theoretical derivation of the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) on the 2-sphere S2, based on the construction of general coherent states associated to square integrable group representations. The parameter space X of our CWT is t ...
It is well known that in the general context the similarity relation is very fuzzy and hard to define. Unfortunately, the intuitive notion of similarity is not a transitive relation: knowing that A is similar to B and that B is similar to C does not necess ...
Vibrational overtone excitation of jet-cooled methanol, in combination with infrared laser assisted photofragment spectroscopy (IRLAPS) detection, reveals OH stretch bands that are significantly simplified with respect to room-temperature spectra. The simp ...
Exploiting local stability we show what neuronal characteristics are essential to ensure that coherent oscillations are asymptotically stable in a spatially homogeneous network of {\em spiking/} neurons. Under standard conditions, a necessary and in the l ...
The fluorescence lifetime of living tissues is, in certain cases, related to their pathol. state and is therefore of interest for cancer detection. Measuring fluorescence lifetime in vivo during an endoscopic examn. has thus been a challenging objective fo ...
We investigated the optical properties of excitons in quasi-one-dimensional semiconductor quantum structures by photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation: High-quality GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs heterostructures were grown using low-pressure organometallic c ...
We do not intend to give here a background knowledge on vacuum field Rabi splitting. The reader should refer to J.M. Raimond, T. Norris, H. Yokoyama and D.S. Citrin lecture notes. For the sake of completeness we simply remind the reader that the cavity qua ...
