We examine the long-range exclusion process introduced by Spitzer and studied by Liggett and answer some of the open questions raised by Liggett. In particular, we show the existence of equilibria corresponding to bounded dual harmonic functions and that t ...
In 1998, the Board of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology established the challenging vision of the 2000 W society. The goal is to reach, for Switzerland by the year 2050, an energy intensity target of 2000 Wyear/year/cap. Referring to a present inte ...
In the coming decades, the threat and consequences of climate change and of the reconcentration of crude oil production in the Near East will compel industrialised nations to make much more efficient use of energy. R&D that helps realise energy efficiency ...
The problem of mode competition in cylindrical cavity gyrotrons is considered. The normalized variable equations are used to calculate the oscillation regions of possible operating modes in the energy-velocity-pitch-angle plane. The analysis is self-consis ...
Single mols. that act as light-energy transducers (e.g., converting the energy of a photon into at.-level mech. motion) are examples of minimal mol. devices. Here, we focus on a mol. switch designed by merging a conformationally locked diarylidene skeleton ...
The energy of the indirect X exciton in AlxGa1-xAs epitaxial layers (with 0.38 < x < 0.81) has been determined by photoluminescence measurements at a sample temperature of 12 K; from these data, the dependence on the Al concentration x of the energy of the ...
Wide quantum wells, where the energy spacing between the first two energy levels is lower than the energy of the polar optical phonon, could represent the ideal condition to obtain a population inversion and the production of infrared lasers. On the other ...
