Peptide Bond Ultraviolet Absorption Enables Vibrational Cold-Ion Spectroscopy of Nonaromatic Peptides

Vladimir Kopysov, Aleksandr Pereverzev

Peptide-bond VUV absorption is inherent to all proteins and peptides. Although widely exploited in top-down proteomics for photodissociation, this absorption has never been spectroscopically characterized in the gas phase. We have measured VUV/UV photofrag ...

Experimental and theoretical investigation of the operating principles of the Figure-9 laser, Advanced Photonics 2018 (BGPP, IPR, NP, NOMA, Sensors, Networks, SPPCom, SOF)

Camille Sophie Brès, Ivan Cardea, Svyatoslav Kharitonov

We present a theoretical vectorial model, validated by experimental measurements, describing the dependence of the Figure-9 laser output power, operating in continuous wave, on the coupling ratio of the directional coupler. ...

Closed-loop Controlled Brillouin Optical Time-Domain Analysis

Luc Thévenaz, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez, Zhisheng Yang

A closed-loop controlled BOTDA distributed optical fibre sensor is proposed for tracking fast temperature-strain evolution. The measurement time is reduced by two orders of magnitude with respect to classical BOTDA sensing, while keeping the same accuracy ...

Amplified Optomechanical Transduction of Virtual Radiation Pressure

Kamanasish Debnath

Here we describe how, utilizing a time-dependent optomechanical interaction, a mechanical probe can provide an amplified measurement of the virtual photons dressing the quantum ground state of an ultrastrongly coupled light-matter system. We calculate the ...

A Practical Engineering Approach to Interpreting Measurement Data in Uncertain Contexts

Ian Smith, Sai Ganesh Sarvotham Pai

Measurement data interpretation has the potential to improve asset management through quantification of reserve capacity and execution of well-engineered interventions. Many recent proposals for data interpretation that include uncertainty are not appropri ...

Data Reconciliation for Reaction Systems Using Extents and Shape Constraints

Dominique Bonvin, Julien Léo Billeter, Sriniketh Srinivasan

Concentrations measured during the course of reactions are typically corrupted by random noise. Data reconciliation techniques improve the accuracy of measurements by using redundancies in the material and energy balances expressed as relationships between ...
