Local readout enhancement for detuned signal-recycling interferometers [PDF]
, 2007 Motivated by the optical-bar scheme of Braginsky, Gorodetsky and Khalili, we propose to add to a high power detuned signal-recycling interferometer a local readout scheme which measures the motion of the arm-cavity front mirror.

IET Generation, Transmission & Distribution, 2021 Here, the analytical model of the 2nd order eigenvalue sensitivity is improved, and applied to optimize the parameters of the power oscillation dampers of the doubly‐fed induction generators. To solve the 2nd order eigenvalue sensitivity, the eigenvector

Neutrino oscillation physics at an upgraded CNGS with large next generation liquid Argon TPC detectors [PDF]
, 2006 The determination of the missing $U_{e3}$ element (magnitude and phase) of the PMNS neutrino mixing matrix is possible via the detection of $\numu\to\nue$ oscillations at a baseline $L$ and energy $E$ given by the atmospheric observations, corresponding ...

Butterfly Optics Exceed the Theoretical Limits of Conventional Apposition Eyes [PDF]
, 1987 Optical experiments on butterfly compound eyes show that they have angular sensitivities narrower than expected from conventional apposition eyes. This superior performance is explained by a theoretical model where the cone stalk is considered as a ...

Using a Second Order Sigma-Delta Control to Improve the Performance of Metal-Oxide Gas Sensors [PDF]
, 2018 Controls of surface potential have been proposed to accelerate the time response of MOX gas sensors. These controls use temperature modulations and a feedback loop based on first-order sigma-delta modulators to keep constant the surface potential ...
