We demonstrate a tunable laser frequency comb operating near 420 nm with mode spacing of 20-50 GHz, usable bandwidth of 15 nm and output power per line of ~20 nW. Using the TRES spectrograph at the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory, we characterize this system to an accuracy below 1m/s, suitable for calibrating high-resolution astrophysical spectrographs used, e.g., in exoplanet studies.

In this demonstration, we propose a model for the management of XML time series (TS), using the new XQuery 1.1 window operator. We argue that centralized computation is slow, and demonstrate XQ2P, our prototype of efficient XQuery P2P TS computation in the context of financial analysis of large data sets (>1M values).

Let Sg be the orientable surface of genus g. We show that the number of edgelabelled cubic multigraphs embeddable on Sg with m = 3k edges is asymptotically dgγ −mm5/2(g−1)−1m!, where γ−1 = √ 79 3 2 −1/3 and cg is a constant only dependent on the genus.

In this research, a PVC membrane electrode for Manganese (II) ions based on N-(2-Picolinamidoethyl)Picolinamide as neutral carrier was prepared. The electrode exhibits a Nemstian responseover Mn(II) concentration range of (1.0 x10-5 t01.0 X 10-1M) with a slope of 29.3±0.5 mV perdecade of concentration with a working pH range of 4.0-9.0. It has a fast response time (

The article considers a theoretical framework of an enterprise’s cost classification, states several types product calculations, defines possible variants determining prime harvesting 1m 3 timber in the environment Republic Mari El, emphasizes some regional specific features pricing for wood resources.

This paper reports the performance differences in the receiving sensitivity and band width of Class V flex tensional transducers (Cymbals) both in-air and in-water by varying the design parameters. Cymbal elements with device diameter 8mm and 13mm with optimum designs achieved using finite element software ATILA is presented. The in-air and underwater characteristics of such transducers are des...

The olfactory acuity of domestic dogs has been well established through numerous studies on trained canines, however whether untrained dogs spontaneously utilize this ability for problem solving is less clear. In the present paper we report two studies that examine what strategies family dogs use in two types of olfaction-based problems as well as their success at various distances. In Study 1,...

This study utilized the electrocatalytic characteristics of nickel electrode to perform degradation of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) in aqueous solution. Lab experiments were conducted in a spiltless bath type cell equipped with a nickel electrode as working electrode, a platinum wire as counter electrode, and an Ag/AgCl electrode as reference electrode. Effects of controlled potential, suppor...

Conjugacy separability of any group of the class of one-relator groups given by the presentation a, b; a m , b n 1m, n > 1 is proven. The proof made used of theoretical combinatorial group methods, namely the structure of amalgamated free products and some properties of the subgroups and quotients of any group of the class of one-relator groups given above.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in people with cystic fibrosis (CF), adapts for survival in the CF lung through both mutation and gene expression changes. Frequent clonal strains such as the Australian Epidemic Strain-1 (AES-1), have increased ability to establish infection in the CF lung and to superimpose and replace infrequent clonal strains. Little is kn...
