A CO2 laser dispersion interferometer (DI) has been developed for both magnetically fusion plasmas and atmospheric pressure plasmas. The DI measures the phase shift caused by dispersion in a medium. Therefore, it is insensitive to mechanical vibrations and changes in the neutral gas density, which degrade the resolution of the plasma measurement. We installed the DI on the Large Helical Device ...

abstract background prolonged p-wave duration and p-wave dispersion indicate interatrial conduction disturbance and early predict arrhythmia especially atrial fibrillation. iron deposition in the atrial tissue might prolonged the atrial conduction time, and this study evaluated the p-wave prolongation and increased p-wave dispersion in these patients. materials and methods fifty patients with m...

Bovine mercaptalbumin has been modified at the carboxyl groups by means of I-ethyl-3 (3-dimethylisopropyl) carbodiimide and glycine amide. A stable derivative was obtained after modification of 54 groups. The modified protein differed only slightly from the unmodified one with respect to the optical rotatory dispersion parameters ao, bo and ~. This preparation was studied in the analytical ultr...

In this paper we examine the absorption and dispersion properties of a weak probe field via Electromagnetically Induced Transparency (EIT) in a four-level system. It is shown that under certain condition, using this model, the absorption cancellation is appeared and the medium becomes transparent to the weak probe field. It will be shown that the controlling of absorption and dispersion spectru...

a computer program was developed to predict the dispersion of gas pollutant in the atmosphere. this program relies on puff method, and in order to consider the wind shear effects, the program has the ability to consider the complete dynamic and unsteady atmospheric conditions. plume rise of hot pollutants due to buoyancy effects was also considered. the program has the capacity to perform the r...

In the present study, analytical solutions are developed for three-dimensional advection-dispersion equation (ADE) in semi-infinite adsorbing saturated homogeneous porous medium with time dependent dispersion coefficient. It means porosity of the medium is filled with single fluid(water). Dispersion coefficient is considered proportional to seepage velocity while adsorption coefficient inversel...

In this paper we present a case study of a record low ozone event observed over the UK in January 2006. We focus on the dynamical processes that cause this event. This is done by examining the observations, meteorological analyses and back trajectories calculated by the NAME III atmospheric dispersion model. We show that this model, hitherto only used for tropospheric pollution studies, can be ...

We extend the concept of the ridgeline from Ray and Lindsay (2005) to finite mixtures of general elliptical densities with possibly distinct density generators in each component. This can be used to obtain bounds for the number of modes of two-component mixtures of t distributions in any dimension. In case of proportional dispersion matrices, these have at most three modes, while for equal degr...
