Laser guide stars and turbulence profiling for extremely large telescopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The next generation of ground based telescopes, the so-called extremely large telescopes, will offer a significant leap in sensitivity and resolution compared to current telescopes. They also present a range of technical challenges.

Enhancing Strength and Electrical Conductivity in Al–Zr–Sc Conductor Alloys Through Sn and Sr Microalloying and Two‐Step Aging Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Trace additions of Sn and Sr combined with a two‐step aging treatment are shown to enhance the microstructure and performance of Al–Zr–Sc conductor alloys. Strength and electrical conductivity increase concurrently through accelerated precipitation of fine Al3(Sc, Zr) precipitates and improved dislocation resistance, offering a cost‐effective pathway ...

Understanding the Stochastic Nature of Process Parameter Development of Blown Powder Laser Beam Directed Energy Deposition Additive Manufacturing of Pure Molybdenum

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Identified through the use of statistical design of experiments and metallographic investigation, this study exposes the stochastic origins of intergranular cracks in blown powder laser beam directed energy deposition additive manufacturing of pure molybdenum. It further demonstrates a successful crack mitigation approach with direct correlation to the

Multimodal Data‐Driven Microstructure Characterization

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A self‐consistent autonomous workflow for EBSP‐based microstructure segmentation by integrating PCA, GMM clustering, and cNMF with information‐theoretic parameter selection, requiring no user input. An optimal ROI size related to characteristic grain size is identified.

Edge Analysis of Optical Coherent Tomography Image by Statistical Methods

open access: yesIndian Journal of Applied Research, 2011
The role of optical coherent tomography image is important for the diagnosis of retina layers in ophthalmology. Here OCT image is subject to computed by edge detection methods. The output of edge detection is applied to standard statistical techniques of Entropy, Kurtosis, slew, Standard deviation and variance.

On the estimation of atmospheric turbulence layers for AO systems [PDF]

open access: yes
In current and next generation of ground telescopes, Adaptive Optics (AO) are employed to overcome the detrimental effects induced by the presence of atmospheric turbulence, that strongly affects the quality of data transmission and therefore limits ...

Coherent Control of Entanglement with Atomic Ensembles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Quantum networks are composed of quantum nodes which coherently interact by way of quantum channels. They offer powerful capabilities for quantum computation, communication, and metrology. A generic requirement for these realizations is the capability to
