We report on the relative length fluctuation of two fixed-spacer Fabry–Pérot cavities with mirrors fabricated from silica/tantala dielectric coatings on fused silica substrates. By locking a laser to each cavity and reading out the beat note ν̂ = ν1 − ν2 of the transmitted beams, we find that, for frequencies from 10 Hz to 1 kHz, the amplitude spectral density of beat note fluctuation is √ S ν̂( ...

Abstract The photocatalytic process of phenol oxidation and Cr(VI) reduction in the presence nano-silica modified titania was carried out. activity composites tested using two different light sources. photocatalysts with 10% nanosilica showed highest activity. calcination temperature (200–800 o C) significantly determined sensitivity obtained materials to source used. Photocatalysts alternately...

Conventional confidence intervals reflect uncertainty due to random error but omit uncertainty due to biases, such as confounding, selection bias, and measurement error. Such uncertainty can be quantified, especially if the investigator has some idea of the amount of such bias. A traditional sensitivity analysis produces one or more point estimates for the exposure effect hypothetically adjuste...

The article presents the results of a study effect silica-containing fillers on structure formation composite cement binder. Obtaining allows use active in sources, which to reduce proportion binder without loss density, is result using resource energy-saving research technologies field building material.

The search for gravitational wave signals from astrophysical sources has led to the current work to upgrade the two largest of the long-baseline laser interferometers, the LIGO detectors. The first fused silica mirror suspensions for the Advanced LIGO gravitational wave detectors have been installed at the LIGO Hanford and Livingston sites. These quadruple pendulums use synthetic fused silica f...

Peptide mixtures, arising from such diverse sources as tissue extracts, urine or proteolysis, are usually fractionated and characterized by a combination of ion-exchange chromatography, gel-exclusion chromatography and/or electrophoresis. Appropriate combinations of these methods will normally yield a homogeneous product, but their costs, detection limits, analyses times and yields vary. The re...

During last years the interest for nanotechnology and mesoporous silica materials has increased due to benefits that these materials can provide. Typical characteristics of mesoporous materials are a large surface area and pore volume, well-ordered and uniform pores with adjustable pores between 2 and 50 nm. Pore dimensions are comparable to many biological molecules, like enzymes, and may ther...

ethylene polymerization was carried out using phillips chromium catalyst based on silica supports such as silicaaerogel, sio2 (grace 643), and titanium modified sio2 (g 643), and the results were compared with othercatalysts based on sio2 (aldrich), sba-15(hex), sba-15(sp) and mcm-41. a combination of tga, dsc, xrd,nitrogen adsorption, sem, icp, ftir and other analyses were used to characterize...
