We study on the lattice the correlator of heavy-quark currents in the vicinity of vanishing momentum. The renormalized charmed quark mass, the renormalized strong coupling constant and gluon condensate can be defined in terms of the derivatives of that correlator at zero momentum. We analyze quenched Monte-Carlo data on a small lattice 8 ∗ 16 for β = 6. We generalize dispersion relations to the...

Radio interferometric observations are less susceptible to radio frequency interference (RFI) than single dish observations. This is primarily due to : (1) fringe-frequency averaging at the correlator output and (2) bandwidth decorrelation of broadband RFI. Here, we propose a new technique to improve RFI suppression of interferometers by replacing the fringe-frequency averaging process with a d...

The requirement for GPS receivers with low Time To First Fix (TTFF) is increasing with the deployment of new standards like E911. Mean Acquisition Time (MAT) determines the TTFF in GPS receivers. In this paper we analyze a scheme called Sequential Muti-Tap correlator, which reduces MAT by an order of magnitude compared to a serial search correlator, without increasing the hardware significantly...

We provide the analytic predictions for the flavor non-singlet scalar correlator, which will enable determination of the scalar meson mass from the lattice scalar correlator. We consider simulations with 2+1 staggered sea quarks and staggered or chiral valence quarks. At small u/d masses the correlator is dominated by the bubble contribution, which is the intermediate state with two pseudoscala...

Paper presents basic information about application of Optical Correlator (OC), specifically Cambridge Correlator, in system to recognize of traffic sign. Traffic Sign Recognition System consists of three main blocks, Preprocessing, Optical Correlator and Traffic Sign Identification. The Region of Interest (ROI) is defined and chosen in preprocessing block and then goes to Optical Correlator, wh...

The asymptotic behavior of the correlator for Polyakov loop operators separated by a large distance R is determined for high temperature QCD. It is dominated by nonperturbative effects related to the exchange of magnetostatic gluons. To analyze the asymptotic behavior, the problem is formulated in terms of the effective field theory of QCD in 3 space dimensions. The Polyakov loop operator is ex...

Long-time asymptotic of field-field correlator for radiation propagated through a medium composed of random point-like scatterers is studied using Bete-Salpeter equation. It is shown that for plane source the fluctuation intensity (zero spatial moment of the correlator) obeys a power-logarithmic stretched exponential decay law, the exponent and preexponent being dependent on the scattering angl...

Strategic Management of Security Information through an Entropy-Based Alert Correlator We present an integrated system to process in real time a huge incoming stream of alerts produced by current intrusion detection systems. A key component of this system includes an unsupervised clustering algorithm that combines a temporal sliding window, entropy tests, and expert rules to track the on-the-fl...

The gauge invariant two-point correlator for the gluon field strength tensor is analysed by means of the QCD sum rule method. To this end, we make use of a relation of this correlator to a two-point function for a quark-gluon hybrid in the limit of the quark mass going to infinity. From the sum rules a relation between the gluon correlation length and the gluon condensate is obtained. We briefl...

To recognize digital streams of digital data, all-optical and passive techniques able to discriminate optical bit words in real time are presented. Discrimination capability of different correlators, both in free space architectures and in delay lines structures, is theoretically and experimentally analyzed. Experimental performances in word recognition are shown in the case of a volume hologra...
