The radius of starlikeness of the certain classes of p-valent functions defined by multiplier transformations
2008
The aim of this paper is to give the radius of starlikeness of the certain classes of -valent functions defined by multiplier transformations. The results are obtained by using techniques of Robertson (1953,1963) which was used by Bernardi (1970), Libera (1971), Livingstone (1966), and Goel (1972).
Flow injection Fourier transform infrared determination of nicotine in tobacco
2000
A fully automated procedure is proposed for the Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) determination of nicotine in tobacco. The method is based on the on-line extraction of nicotine with CHCl3. Samples, weighed inside empty extraction cartridges, were humidified with NH3 and the cartridges were installed in a flow manifold in which they were extracted with 2 ml CHCl3 for 2 min, then 400 microliters of the extract were introduced into a micro-flow cell using a carrier of CHCl3 and the IR spectrum was registered continuously. The absorbance, in the wavenumber range 1334-1300 cm-1, was measured, obtaining a peak as a function of time. The area of this peak was interpolated on a calibration line es…
Simultaneous remote extraction of multiple speech sources and heart beats from secondary speckles pattern
2009
The ability of dynamic extraction of remote sounds is very appealing. In this manuscript we propose an optical approach allowing the extraction and the separation of remote sound sources. The approach is very modular and it does not apply any constraints regarding the relative position of the sound sources and the detection device. The optical setup doing the detection is very simple and versatile. The principle is to observe the movement of the secondary speckle patterns that are generated on top of the target when it is illuminated by a spot of laser beam. Proper adaption of the imaging optics allows following the temporal trajectories of those speckles and extracting the sound signals ou…
Correlation between optics quality of multifocal intraocular lenses and visual acuity
2009
Purpose To study the relationship between the optics quality of multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) and distance-corrected near, intermediate, and distance visual acuity to determine the degree to which optics quality must change to produce a significant difference in visual acuity. Setting Fundacion Oftalmologica del Mediterraneo, Valencia, Spain. Methods Monocular distance-corrected visual acuity (decimal and logMAR) was measured at 4 m, 70 cm, and 30 cm under photopic and mesopic conditions in eyes with 1 of 3 multifocal IOL models. Visual acuity versus the “average modulation” of the IOL was assessed. Results The pupil diameter and patient age were similar between the 3 IOL groups (20 …
Multiperiodic pulsations in the Be stars NW Serpentis and V1446 Aquilae
2007
Aims.We present accurate photometric time series of two Be stars: NW Ser and V1446 Aql . Both stars were observed at the Observatorio de Sierra Nevada (Granada) in July 2003 with an automatic four-channel Strömgren photometer. We also present a preliminary theoretical study showing that the periodic variations exhibited by these stars can be due to pulsation. Methods.An exhaustive Fourier analysis together with a least-square fitting has been carried out on the time series for all four Strömgren bands. Several independent frequencies and non-periodic trends explain most of the variance. A theoretical non-adiabatic code applied to stellar models for these stars shows that g-modes are unstabl…
Singular integrals, analytic capacity and rectifiability
1997
In this survey we study some interplay between classical complex analysis (removable sets for bounded analytic functions), harmonic analysis (singular integrals), and geometric measure theory (rectifiability).
Direct Measurement of Electron-Phonon Coupling with Time-Resolved ARPES
2020
Time- and angular- resolved photoelectron spectroscopy is a powerful technique to measure electron dynamics in solids. Recent advances in this technique have facilitated band and energy resolved observations of the effect that excited phonons, have on the electronic structure. Here, we show with the help of ab initio simulations that the Fourier analysis of the time-resolved measurements of solids with excited phonon modes enables the determination of the band- and mode-resolved electron-phonon coupling directly from the experimental data without any additional input from theory. Such an observation is not restricted to regions of strong electron-phonon coupling and does not require strongl…
X-ray structure determination of a metastable state of carbonmonoxy myoglobin after photodissociation.
1996
The x-ray structure of carbon monoxide (CO)-ligated myoglobin illuminated during data collection by a laser diode at the wavelength lambda = 690 nm has been determined to a resolution of 1.7 A at T = 36 K. For comparison, we also measured data sets of deoxymyoglobin and CO-ligated myoglobin. In the photon-induced structure the electron density associated with the CO ligand can be described by a tube extending from the iron into the heme pocket over more than 4 A. This density can be interpreted by two discrete positions of the CO molecule. One is close to the heme iron and can be identified to be bound CO. In the second, the CO is dissociated from the heme iron and lies on top of pyrrole ri…
Analysis on the Time and Frequency Domains of the Acceleration in Front Crawl Stroke
2012
Analysis on the Time and Frequency Domains of the Acceleration in Front Crawl Stroke The swimming involves accelerations and decelerations in the swimmer's body. Thus, the main objective of this study is to make a temporal and frequency analysis of the acceleration in front crawl swimming, regarding the gender and the performance. The sample was composed by 31 male swimmers (15 of high-level and 16 of low-level) and 20 female swimmers (11 of high-level and 9 of low-level). The acceleration was registered from the third complete cycle during eight seconds in a 25 meters maximum velocity test. A position transducer (200Hz) was used to collect the data, and it was synchronized to an aquatic ca…
Fourier analysis of the stimuli for pattern-induced flicker colors.
1992
Pattern-induced flicker colors (PIFCs) were observed and color matched in rotating discs from which higher-harmonic Fourier components in the square-wave temporal luminance functions of a conventional black-and-white Benham disc had been removed. Since both reddish-brown and blue PIFCs were visible with purely sinusoidal stimuli they cannot result from differences in temporal stimulus shape or pattern and do not provide evidence for a temporal coding theory of color. Green PIFCs differed in that they did require the presence of additional harmonics. In a second experiment the luminance means upon which the sinusoidal PIFC stimuli were imposed were varied. The results show that color is dete…
