Cold atom fountain clocks provide exceptional long term stability as they increase interrogation time at the expense of a larger size. We present compact cold using grating magneto-optical trap to laser cool and launch atoms in simplified optical setup. The is evaluated coherent population trapping demonstrates improved single-shot from launch. Ramsey times up 100 ms were measured with correspo...

This dissertation focuses on fountain codes under maximum likelihood (ML) decoding. Fountain codes are a class of erasure correcting codes that can generate an endless amount of coded symbols and were conceived to deliver data files over data networks to a potentially large population of users. First Luby transform (LT) codes are considered, which represent the first class of practical fountain...

to demonstrate more visibly the close relation between thecontinuity and integrability, a new proof for the banach-zareckitheorem is presented on the basis of the radon-nikodym theoremwhich emphasizes on measure-type properties of the lebesgueintegral. the banach-zarecki theorem says that a real-valuedfunction $f$ is absolutely continuous on a finite closed intervalif and only if it is continuo...

The adaptive humoral immune system of vertebrates functions by evolving a huge repertoire of binding proteins, which target potentially all molecules that come into contact with developing B cells. The key to endowing these binders with immunological activity is the adjustment of antibody structure and affinity against molecular targets. As a result, antibodies with a wide range of affinities a...
