Cloud feedbacks and rapid adjustments to an abrupt quadrupling of CO2 are diagnosed in five CMIP5 models using cloud radiative kernels in combination with cloud top pressureand optical depthpartitioned cloud fractions. Upon CO2 quadrupling, clouds exhibit a rapid reduction in fractional coverage, cloud top pressure, and optical depth, each contributing roughly equally to a positive global mean ...

a novel low noise trans-impedance amplifier is proposed using low cost 0.18 µm cmos technology. a resistive-capacitive feedback is used to extend the bandwidth of the amplifier. as the structure is inductor less, it is suitable for low cost integrated optical interconnects. in this paper improved particle swarm optimization have applied to determine optimal trans-resistance and noise of propose...

Excitation of intense periodic single-cycle light pulses in a stochastic background arising from continuous wave stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in a long optical fiber with weak optical feedback is found experimentally and modeled theoretically. Such intense light-pulse chains occur randomly and the optical feedback is a requirement for their excitation. The probability of these forms, a...

The next generation 30-meter class ground-based telescopes pose an unprecedented challenge for control systems envisioned to support diffraction limited imaging. Our approach is a multi-tiered, decentralized control architecture utilizing two kinds of feedback: optical and mechanical. Based on simulations, we suggest a configuration where the optical feedback loops for the main axes, secondary ...

Properties of the quantum noise and the optical feedback noise in blue-violet InGaN semiconductor lasers were measured in detail. We confirmed that the quantum noise in the blue-violet laser becomes higher than that in the near-infrared laser. This property is an intrinsic property basing on principle of the quantum mechanics, and is severe subject to apply the laser for optical disk with the s...
