Fermi condensates for dynamic imaging of electromagnetic fields.
2008
Ultracold gases provide micrometer size atomic samples whose sensitivity to external fields may be exploited in sensor applications. Bose-Einstein condensates of atomic gases have been demonstrated to perform excellently as magnetic field sensors \cite{Wildermuth2005a} in atom chip \cite{Folman2002a,Fortagh2007a} experiments. As such, they offer a combination of resolution and sensitivity presently unattainable by other methods \cite{Wildermuth2006a}. Here we propose that condensates of Fermionic atoms can be used for non-invasive sensing of time-dependent and static magnetic and electric fields, by utilizing the tunable energy gap in the excitation spectrum as a frequency filter. Perturbat…
Size-consistent single-reference methods for electronic correlation: a unified formulation through intermediate hamiltonian theory
1996
Using the intermediate hamiltonian theory as a unique conceptual frame and the technique of CI matrix dressing, a wide series of single-reference methods for the treatment of the ground state correlation are reviewed, compared, and sometimes improved. These methods range from independent excitation approximation (the very next step beyond MP2) to coupled cluster, going through the so-called electron pair approximations and the (SC)2CI formalism. A hierarchy of these methods can be established according to two criteria: These formulations in terms of diagonalizations of dressed CI matrices avoid convergence problems, but their main advantage is their flexibility, since they apply to multi-re…
Optical and electron paramagnetic resonance studies on radiation defects in Mn‐activated RbCdF 3
2007
The photoluminescence of Mn-activated RbCdF3 shows a Mn2+ emission band at 560 nm; the corresponding excitation bands are between 240 and 520 nm. After X-irradiation an increased Mn2+ emission can be observed and the excitation spectrum shows an additional broad intense band at 300 nm. Upon excitation at 300 nm the intensity of the Mn2+ emission decreases, whereas excitation at 240 nm leads to an increase in the PL intensity. Electron paramagnetic resonance shows that the number of Mn2+ ions is reduced upon X-irradiation; the original Mn2+ level can be restored upon optical bleaching. (© 2007 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Optical and magneto‐optical studies of Mn‐activated LiBaF 3
2005
The photoluminescence (PL) of Mn-doped LiBaF3 shows a weak Mn2+ emission band at 710 nm; the corresponding excitation bands are between 210 and 620 nm. After X-irradiation the PL spectrum shows two new bands peaking at 600 and 670 nm that are tentatively assigned to perturbed Mn2+ emissions; the intensity of all PL bands is increased. Magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) and the MCD-detected electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements show that F-type centres are formed after X-irradiation. The EPR measurements indicate that there is a spatial correlation between the F-type centre and the Mn2+ dopant. (© 2005 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
A frequency compensation algorithm of four-wheel coherence random road
2013
Published version of an article in the journal: Mathematical Problems in Engineering. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2013/986584 Open access The road surface roughness is the main source of kinematic excitation of a moving vehicle, which has an important influence on vehicle performance. In recent decades, random road models have been widely studied, and a four-wheel random road time domain model is usually generated based on the correlation of the four-wheel input, in which a coherence function is used to describe the coherence of the road input between the left and right wheels usually. However, during our research, there are some conditions that show that…
<title>Modeling of eddy current sensors</title>
2001
In this paper two models of eddy current sensor have been presented. They are base don a one- and multi-turn coil model. The results of computer simulations present a relation of eddy current density on nonferromagnetic conducting materials versus some parameters viz: a coil radius, frequency of excitation current and conductivity of material.© (2001) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

The use of sea waves for generation of electrical energy and Hydrogen
2009
Recently linear synchronous generator for the exploitation of sea wave energy has been proposed. That solution does not require reactive power to magnetize but needs permanent magnets to assure the excitation. The electrical energy generated by such a device must be converted and conditioned in order to match the instantaneous utility requirements and a power link from the sea to an interconnection is needed. In this paper in order to overcome that difficulty, the authors propose the use of the electrical energy generated to generate “in situ” hydrogen. As a result the output of the generation would be hydrogen that can be stored and used when needed The proposed electrical generator is a P…
Towards an accurate molecular orbital theory for excited states : Ethene, butadiene, and hexatriene
1993
A newly proposed quantum chemical approach for ab initio calculations of electronic spectra of molecular systems is applied to the molecules ethene, trans‐1,3‐butadiene, and trans‐trans‐1,3,5‐hexatriene. The method has the aim of being accurate to better than 0.5 eV for excitation energies and is expected to provide structural and physical data for the excited states with good reliability. The approach is based on the complete active space (CAS) SCF method, which gives a proper description of the major features in the electronic structure of the excited state, independent of its complexity, accounts for all near degeneracy effects, and includes full orbital relaxation. Remaining dynamic ele…
An analytical method for monitoring micro-traces of landfill leachate in groundwater using fluorescence excitation–emission matrix spectroscopy
2016
In this study, we use three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectroscopy for the identification of contamination of natural water bodies by landfill leachate. In particular, EEM was applied to provide information about the presence and quantities of leachate in ground waters. A good linear relationship was found between the fluorescence intensity emission of groundwater spiked with landfill leachate and the volumes of the latter, suggesting that there was no intrinsic fluorescence in the concentration range of 0-1000 μL L-1. The obtained values of the LOD (10 μL L-1; TOC = 34 μg L-1) and LOQ (34 μL L-1; TOC = 114 μg L-1) allow us to detect the presence and the amou…
