A new technique of modulation index adjustment for pure wavelength modulation spectroscopy second harmonic signal waveforms recovery is presented. As the modulation index is a key parameter in determining the exact form of the signals generated by the technique of wavelength modulation spectroscopy, the method of modulation index adjustment is applied to recover the second harmonic signal with ...

in order to evaluate the relationships between some traits of iranian rice seedlings under saline conditions,,75 iranian cultivars as traditional, improved and introduced cultivars were used, as a randomized complete block design experiment with 3 replications at rice research institute of iran in three levels of salinity (normal ,1.2 , 4 and 8 ds.m-1) in 2006. root and shoot length, root and s...

We derive the structural relations between the Mellin transforms of weighted Nielsen integrals emerging in the calculation of massless or massive single–scale quantities in QED and QCD, such as anomalous dimensions and Wilson coefficients, and other hard scattering cross sections depending on a single scale. The set of all multiple harmonic sums up to weight five cover the sums needed in the ca...

PURPOSE To understand the sites of macular dysfunction in retinitis pigmentosa by evaluating focal electroretinogram (FERG) fundamental and second harmonic components, which are dominated by the activity of the outer and inner retina, respectively. METHODS FERGs were recorded in response to a uniform field (9 degrees x 9 degrees) flickered sinusoidally at either 8 Hz or 32 Hz. The fundamental...

We study the nonlinear response of the crayfish caudal photoreceptor to periodic mechanical stimuli in terms of stochastic synchronization. The amplitude and frequency of the mechanical stimuli and the light level are used as control parameters. The system shows multiple locking regions as the stimulus frequency is varied. We find that the synchronization index increases as the signal-to-noise ...

one of the possible ways to ensure future food needs of an increasing world population involves the better water use through the development of crop varieties which need less water and are more tolerant to drought. in order to study the response of twenty landraces of bread wheat to drought stress, an experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications under t...

Intracranial pressure waveforms (ICPWF) in head injured patients vary with the nature and severity of injury. Clinical interpretation of ICPWF shape is not defined. Spectral analysis provides an objective method of measuring changes in waveform shape, but the indices most suitable for clinical use remain unknown. Spectral analysis has been applied to ICPWF recorded from 30 patients with head in...

that may be the first to exhibit signs of environmental degradaAbstract tion. An index of interannual variability for natural and manThe southern Great Plains may be one of the first areas in the aged LULC types was developed using phase components United States to show significant and detectable changes in derived from harmonic analysis of a nine-year (1989–1997) vegetation cover as a result o...

Some of the theoretical models in the literature describing the mechanism of hologram formation in photopolymer materials predict the existence of higher harmonics in the Fourier expansion of the recorded refractive index. Nevertheless, quantitative information is only obtained for the first harmonic of the refractive index using Kogelnik's Coupled Wave Theory. In this work we apply the Rigorou...
