Aim: This paper presents a probabilistic method for the characterization of pollen taxa using attributes, and for the reconstitution of past biomes. The probabilities are calculated on the basis of European floristic and pollen databases sufficiently large ...
The occurrence of an ultrathin SiO2 oxide layer at the interface between silicon and high-k dielectrics in metal-oxide-semiconductor devices contributes to degrading the capacitance of the gate stack. In this work, we investigate the dielectric and infrare ...
The IEC 61346 standard establishes general principles for structuring the information of technical systems. The present document discusses the ideas shown in the standard, emphasizing the fact that some parts of it are ambiguous and can lead to different i ...
Relevant source area of pollen (RSAP) and pollen productivity for 11 key taxa characteristic of the pasture woodland landscape of the Jura Mountains, Switzerland, were estimated using pollen assemblages from moss polsters at 20 sites. To obtain robust poll ...
This paper provides a theoretical connection between two different mathematical models dedicated to the reflectance and the transmittance of diffusing layers. The Kubelka–Munk model proposes a continuous description of scattering and absorption for two opp ...
We report a fundamental study of single cavitation bubbles inside quasi-spherical water drops produced in microgravity (42nd ESA parabolic flight campaign, 8th ESA student parabolic flight campaign). High-speed imaging revealed implications of isolated, fi ...
Polaritons are half-matter half-light quasiparticles, arising, in a two-dimensional semiconductor microcavity, from the strong-coupling between an exciton (an elementary electronic excitation of a crystal) and a photon. This thesis presents the fabrication ...
We present a 60-year record of the stable isotopes of atmospheric carbon monoxide (CO) from firn air samples collected under the framework of the North Greenland Eemian Ice Drilling (NEEM) project. CO concentration, δ 13C, and δ 18O of CO were measured by ...
Shadow segmentation is a critical issue for systems aiming at extracting, tracking or recognizing objects in a given scene. Shadows can in fact modify the shape and colour of objects and therefore affect scene analysis and interpretation systems in many ap ...
This paper presents a derivation and a physical interpretation of the equal area rule (EAR) for wire-grid simulation of surfaces. We propose a new procedure that leads to a formulation for obtaining the radii for an arbitrarily meshed surface. A simple com ...
