We are developing a symmetric gain optoelectronic mixer for chirped-AM laser detection and ranging systems (LADAR) operating in the “eye-safe” 1.55 m wavelength range. Signal processing of a chirped-AM LADAR system is simplified if the photodetector in the receiver is used as an optoelectronic mixer (OEM). Adding gain to the optoelectronic mixer allows the following transimpedance amplifier’s ...

With the aim of promoting the Ni/Ce0.8Gd0.2O2-δ (Ni/GDC20) cermet anodic performance of low temperature solid oxide fuel cell (LT-SOFC) [1], nanostructuring platinum nanoparticles on NiO/GDC composite was done by single-step wet-infiltration of hexachloroplatinic acid hexahydrate (H2PtCl6.6H2O) precursor on NiO/GDC20 composite. The anodic polarization resistance was measured using symmetr...

[1] The helicon modes are studied in Earth’s magnetotail using the Harris sheet as a model of its equilibrium. The plasma sheet is divided into two regions: In region 1 both the electrons and the ions are treated as magnetized, whereas in region 2 the electrons are treated as magnetized but the ions are unmagnetized. The eigenmode equation for the low-frequency, parallel propagating right-hand ...

‎The global FOM and GMRES algorithms are among the effective‎ ‎methods to solve Sylvester matrix equations‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we‎ ‎study these algorithms in the case that the coefficient matrices‎ ‎are real symmetric (real symmetric positive definite) and extract‎ ‎two CG-type algorithms for solving generalized Sylvester matrix‎ ‎equations‎. ‎The proposed methods are iterative projection metho...

We classify the paracontact Riemannian manifolds that their Riemannian curvature satisfies in the certain condition and we show that this classification is hold for the special cases semi-symmetric and locally symmetric spaces. Finally we study paracontact Riemannian manifolds satisfying R(X, ξ).S = 0, where S is the Ricci tensor.

We prove density and current fluctuations for two examples of symmetric, interacting particle systems with anomalous diffusive behavior: the zero-range process with long jumps and the zero-range process with degenerated bond disorder. As an application, we obtain subdiffusive behavior of a tagged particle in a simple exclusion process with variable diffusion coefficient.

For mean-zero and asymmetric zero-range processes on Z , the fluctuations of additive functionals starting from an invariant measure are considered. Under certain assumptions, we establish when the fluctuations are diffusive and satisfy functional central limit theorems. These results complement those for symmetric zero-range systems and also those for simple exclusion models already in the lit...

Metal coordination assemblies of the symmetric bi-functional 4,4'-di-(1,4-buta-1,3-diynyl)-benzoic acid are investigated by scanning tunnelling microscopy on metal surfaces. The formation of long-range ordered, short-range disordered and random phases depends on the competition between the convergent and divergent coordination motifs of the individual functional groups and is crucially influenc...

We consider the ability of a very simple feed-forward neural network to discriminate phonemes based on just relative power spectrum. The network consists of two neurons with symmetric nonlinear response over a spectral range. The output of the neurons is subsequently fed to a comparator. We show that often this is enough to achieve complete separation of data. We compare the performance of foun...

The unique dynamics of the tidal disruption of satellite galaxies is an extremely sensitive probe of longrange interactions between dark-matter particles. Dark-matter forces that are several percent the strength of gravity will lead to order unity changes in the ratio of the number of stars in the leading and trailing tidal streams of a satellite galaxy. The approximate symmetry of the stellar ...
