20 GHz Wavelet Generator Using a Gated Tunnel Diode
We demonstrate the use of a GaAs-AlGaAs gated tunnel diode (GTD) in an ultra-wideband (UWB) wavelet generator. An inductor is integrated to form an oscillator circuit, which is driven by the negative differential conductance property of a GTD. It is demonstrated that as the gate tunes the magnitude of the output conductance, the oscillator may be switched on and off, creating short RF pulses. The
Diabetic Vascular Complications & Inflammation - role of NFAT and TNFalpha
Vascular complications of diabetes account for the majority of morbidity and mortality among diabetic patients. Large clinical trials have identified hyperglycemia as a risk factor in the development of diabetic vascular complications. The effects of hyperglycemia on the vessel wall are not fully understood, but chronic vascular inflammation has been implicated to play a major role in the pathogen

Dependence of laser accelerated protons on laser energy following the interaction of defocused, intense laser pulses with ultra-thin targets
The scaling of the flux and maximum energy of laser-driven sheath-accelerated protons has been investigated as a function of laser pulse energy in the range of 15-380 mJ at intensities of 10(16)-10(18) W/cm(2). The pulse duration and target thickness were fixed at 40 fs and 25 nm, respectively, while the laser focal spot size and drive energy were varied. Our results indicate that while the maximu
Search for direct production of charginos and neutralinos in events with three leptons and missing transverse momentum in root s=7 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector
A search for the direct production of charginos and neutralinos in final states with three electrons or muons and missing transverse momentum is presented. The analysis is based on 4.7 fb(-1) of root s = 7 TeV proton-proton collision data delivered by the Large Hadron Collider and recorded with the ATLAS detector. Observations are consistent with Standard Model expectations in three signal regions
A physico-chemical characterisation of new raw materials for microcrystalline cellulose manufacturing
A detailed physico-chemical characterisation of potential new cellulose sources (rice husk, hemp stalk, and coniferous needles), and microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) manufactured from them, was made in this work. The length and the width of the cellulose crystallites were determined by wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS), crystallinities were studied by means of WAXS and solid state cross polarisat
Interleukin-6 concentrations in the urine and dipstick analyses were related to bacteriuria but not symptoms in the elderly: a cross sectional study of 421 nursing home residents
Background: Up to half the residents of nursing homes for the elderly have asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU), which should not be treated with antibiotics. A complementary test to discriminate between symptomatic urinary tract infections (UTI) and ABU is needed, as diagnostic uncertainty is likely to generate significant antibiotic overtreatment. Previous studies indicate that Interleukin-6 (IL-6) in

Relationships between primary productivity and bottom-water oxygenation off northwest Africa during the last deglaciation
Abstract in UndeterminedThe upwelling region off northwest Africa is one of the most productive regions in the world ocean. This study details the response of surface-and deep-water environments off Mauritania, northwest Africa, to the rapid climate events of the last deglaciation, especially the Bolling-Allerod (15.5-13.5 ka BP) and Younger Dryas (13.5-11.5 ka BP). A high accumulation rate gravit
Multitaper Estimation of the Coherence Spectrum in low SNR
A pseudo coherence estimate using multitapers is presented. The estimate has better localization for sinusoids and is shown to have lower variance for disturbances compared to the usual coherence estimator. This makes it superior in terms of finding coherent frequencies between two sinusoidal signals; even when observed in low SNR. Different sets of multitapers are investigated and the weights of

A Brute-Force Algorithm for Reconstructing a Scene from Two Projections
Is the real problem in finding the relative orientation of two viewpoints the correspondence problem? We argue that this is only one difficulty. Even with known correspondences, popular methods like the eight point algorithm and minimal solvers may break down due to planar scenes or small relative motions. In this paper, we derive a simple, brute-force algorithm which is both robust to outliers an
Prey-type-dependent foraging of young-of-the-year fish in turbid and humic environments
Fish, which are generally visual foragers, experiences reduced reaction distance in visually degraded environments, which has consequences for encounter rates with prey. Small prey is detected at shorter distances than larger prey, and piscivores are therefore predicted to be more strongly affected by visual degradation. In experiments, roach (Rutilus rutilus) were fed two plankton prey types and

An update on pathophysiological mechanisms related to idiopathic oro-facial pain conditions with implications for management
Chronic oro-facial pain conditions such as persistent idiopathic facial pain (PIFP), atypical odontalgia (AO) and burning mouth syndrome (BMS), usually grouped together under the concept of idiopathic oro-facial pain, remain a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Lack of understanding of the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of these pain conditions is one of the important reasons behind t
