Design of a Compact Dual Circular-Polarized Antenna for L-Band Satellite Applications
2020
In this paper, we propose the design of a dual circular-polarized antenna for L-band applications (1.1-1.6 GHz). The designed antenna has been developed by considering crossed-dipoles on top of which a circular patch has been placed to properly act on the mutual coupling between the dipoles. The dual circular polarization is achieved by feeding dipoles in quadrature. Moreover, to increase the antenna gain and polarization purity at high elevation angles, a fence of passive monopoles has been added. The proposed antenna can profitably used as primary feed of a low-frequency parabolic reflector.
Motor strategies and adiabatic invariants: The case of rhythmic motion in parabolic flights
2021
The role of gravity in human motor control is at the same time obvious and difficult to isolate. It can be assessed by performing experiments in variable gravity. We propose that adiabatic invariant theory may be used to reveal nearly-conserved quantities in human voluntary rhythmic motion, an individual being seen as a complex time-dependent dynamical system with bounded motion in phase-space. We study an explicit realization of our proposal: An experiment in which we asked participants to perform $\infty-$ shaped motion of their right arm during a parabolic flight, either at self-selected pace or at a metronome's given pace. Gravity varied between $0$ and $1.8$ $g$ during a parabola. We c…
Filter performance parameters for vectorial high-aperture wave fields.
2008
Performance parameters have been presented that can be used to compare the focusing performance of different optical systems, including the effect of pupil filters. These were originally given for the paraxial case and recently extended to the high-aperture scalar regime. We generalize these parameters to the full vectorial case for an aplanatic optical system illuminated by a plane-polarized wave. The behavior of different optical systems is compared.
Detection system for forward emitted photons at the Experimental Storage Ring at GSI
2013
A single photon counting system has been developed for efficient detection of forward emitted fluorescence photons at the Experimental Storage Ring (ESR) at GSI. The system employs a movable parabolic mirror with a central slit that can be positioned around the ion beam and a selected low noise photomultiplier for detection of the collected photons. Compared to the previously used system of mirror segments installed inside the ESR the collection efficiency for forward-emitted photons is improved by more than a factor of 5. No adverse effects on the stored ion beam have been observed during operation besides a small drop in the ion current of about 5% during movement of the mirror into the b…
INFLUENCE OF THE INITIAL PHASE PROFILE ON THE ASYMPTOTIC SELF-SIMILAR PARABOLIC DYNAMICS
2009
International audience; We describe the influence of the initial phase profile on the convergence towards asymptotic self-similar parabolic shape. More precisely, based on numerical simulations, we discuss the impact of an initial linear chirp and a p phase shift. If the parabolic shape has been found to describe accurately the pulse envelope, dark structures can appear and evolve also self-similarly on the parabolic background.

La importancia del marabout en la educación de la sociedad senegalesa
2012
En este artículo nos centramos en la figura del marabout al descubrir su relevancia en la sociedad senegalesa en el transcurso de un proyecto que emprendimos en Senegal para conocer sobre el terreno los distintos aspectos del impacto de la emigración en un país de origen como éste que aporta un alto contingente de inmigrantes a España. La investigación principal analizaba las causas que generan la emigración y los modos en que ésta se realiza y ha concluido con la publicación de un libro, pero al margen de ésta, nos dimos cuenta de que había un personaje, el marabout, cuyas múltiples facetas vertebraban en cierta manera el fenómeno de la migración. Este artículo es el resultado del trabajo …
AN HYPERBOLIC-PARABOLIC PREDATOR-PREY MODEL INVOLVING A VOLE POPULATION STRUCTURED IN AGE
2020
Abstract We prove existence and stability of entropy solutions for a predator-prey system consisting of an hyperbolic equation for predators and a parabolic-hyperbolic equation for preys. The preys' equation, which represents the evolution of a population of voles as in [2] , depends on time, t, age, a, and on a 2-dimensional space variable x, and it is supplemented by a nonlocal boundary condition at a = 0 . The drift term in the predators' equation depends nonlocally on the density of preys and the two equations are also coupled via classical source terms of Lotka-Volterra type, as in [4] . We establish existence of solutions by applying the vanishing viscosity method, and we prove stabil…
Comparison of parallel implementation of some multi-level Schwarz methods for singularly perturbed parabolic problems
1999
Abstract Parallel multi-level algorithms combining a time discretization and an overlapping domain decomposition technique are applied to the numerical solution of singularly perturbed parabolic problems. Two methods based on the Schwarz alternating procedure are considered: a two-level method with auxiliary “correcting” subproblems as well as a three-level method with auxiliary “predicting” and “correcting” subproblems. Moreover, modifications of the methods using time extrapolation on subdomain interfaces are investigated. The emphasis is given to the description of the algorithms as well as their computer realization on a distributed memory multiprocessor computer. Numerical experiments …
