Using a density-functional framework, we investigate the vibrational spectra of vitreous SiO2 to determine to what extent these spectra provide information about the medium-range structure of the oxide network. We carry out a comparative study involving th ...
In a time of rising concern about climate change and pollution, the water quality of large
lakes acts as an indicator of the health of the environment. To study the water quality at a
large scale - up to several hundreds of kilometres - hyperspectral remot ...
Ultra-short echo-time proton single voxel spectra of rat brain were obtained on a 14.1 T 26 cm horizontal bore system. At this field, the fitted linewidth in the brain tissue of adult rats was about 11 Hz. New, separated resonances ascribed to phosphocholi ...
The optical properties of small noble metal clusters have been studied by absorption and fluorescence for sizes between 1 and 10 atoms. The experimental technique consists in depositing size-selected clusters in a neon matrix and analyzing with a spectrome ...
A wide variety of physicochemical processes at a molecular level, in particular charge or energy transfer, electronic and vibrational relaxation, are at the origin of biological functionality of proteins and organometallic compounds. The work reported in t ...
A comparative study of turbulence in a wind-tunnel model canopy is performed, using Large eddy simulation (LES) and experimental data from PIV and hot-wire anemom¬etry measurements. The model canopy is composed of thin cylindrical stalks. In the LES, these ...
We present the current estimate of instrumental and systematic effect uncertainties for the Planck-Low Frequency Instrument relevant to the first release of the Planck cosmological results. We give an overview of the main effects and of the tools and metho ...
Spectral analysis of velocity signals recorded by acoustic-Doppler velocimetry (ADV) and contaminated with intermittent spikes remains a challenging task. In this paper, we propose a new method for reconstructing contaminated time series, which integrates ...
This Thesis aims at characterizing the linear properties of electrostatic drift instabilities arising in a toroidal plasma and the mechanisms leading to their development into turbulence. The experiments are performed on the TORoidal Plasma EXperiment (TOR ...
We address the problem of modeling received pulse trains in a multipath fading channel and of computing their exact spectrum. We propose a model based on point processes. Such model is very general, simple and tractable and it allows to account for various ...
