Polar Codes: Characterization of Exponent, Bounds, and Constructions

Rüdiger Urbanke, Satish Babu Korada, Eren Sasoglu

Polar codes were recently introduced by Arikan. They achieve the capacity of arbitrary symmetric binary-input discrete memoryless channels under a low complexity successive cancellation decoding strategy. The original polar code construction is closely rel ...

Assessment of irradiation embrittlement of the Eurofer97 steel after 590 MeV proton irradiation

Philippe Spätig, Pablo Federico Mueller

The irradiation hardening of the Eurofer97 steel following 590 MeV proton irradiations was determined at three different irradiation temperatures, 50 °C, 250 °C and 350 °C, and various doses up to about 1.3 displacement per atom. The dose and temperature d ...

Experimental investigation of unstrained diffusion flames and their instabilities

Etienne Robert

In this thesis, thermal-diffusive instabilities are studied experimentally in diffusion flames. The novel species injector of a recently developed research burner, consisting of an array of hypodermic needles, which allows to produce quasi one-dimensional ...

Polar Codes: Characterization of Exponent, Bounds, and Constructions

Rüdiger Urbanke, Satish Babu Korada, Eren Sasoglu

Polarization codes were recently introduced by Ar\i kan. They are explicit code constructions which achieve the capacity of arbitrary symmetric binary-input discrete memoryless channels (and even extensions thereof) under a low complexity successive decodi ...

Effect of rare-gas adsorption on the spin-orbit split bands of a surface alloy: Xe on Ag(111)-(root 3 x root 3) R30 degrees-Bi

Marco Grioni, Christian Reinhard Ast, Luca Moreschini

We have investigated by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy changes induced by Xe adsorption on the spin-orbit-split bands of the epitaxial Ag(111) (root 3x root 3)R30 degrees-Bi surface alloy. We observe an extensive backfolding of the alloy band st ...

In this thesis we describe a path integral formalism to evaluate approximations to the probability density function for the location and orientation of one end of a continuum polymer chain at thermodynamic equilibrium with a heat bath. We concentrate on th ...

Quantum-Noise Limited Distance Resolution of Optical Range Imaging Techniques

Peter Seitz

The most common optical distance imaging methods (triangulation, interferometry and time-of-flight ranging) can all be described in a unified way as linear shift-invariant systems in which the determination of distance corresponds to the measurement of a s ...

Fast spin +-2 spherical harmonics transforms and application in cosmology

Pierre Vandergheynst, Yves Wiaux, Laurent Jacques

A fast and exact algorithm is developed for the spin +-2 spherical harmonics transforms on equi-angular pixelizations on the sphere. It is based on the Driscoll and Healy fast scalar spherical harmonics transform. The theoretical exactness of the transform ...

We investigate the plastic flow properties at low and high temperature of the tempered martensitic steel Eurofer97. We show that below room temperature, where the Peierls friction on the screw dislocation is active, it is necessary to modify the usual Tayl ...
