Coherent Stokes Raman Scattering for Simultaneous Measurement of CO2 and CH4 Temperatures

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
A three‐beam hybrid fs/ps CSRS method is employed to excite the rovibrational transitions in the Fermi‐dyad of CO2$$ {}_2 $$ and the v2$$ {v}_2 $$ mode of CH4$$ {}_4 $$. Time‐domain spectroscopic models are developed to extract the fuel and flame temperature profiles from experimental CH4$$ {}_4 $$ and CO2$$ {}_2 $$ spectra in a diffusion flame ...

Imaging extrasolar planets with the European Extremely Large Telescope

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2011
The European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT) is the most ambitious of the ELTs being planned. With a diameter of 42 m and being fully adaptive from the start, the E-ELT will be more than one hundred times more sensitive than the present-day largest ...

Beyond Skin and Eyes: The Medical and Social Burden of Oculocutaneous Albinism in Africa: A Narrative Review

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) is a genetic disorder found worldwide, but its impact is particularly pronounced in the African continent. This results from both a higher prevalence and the persistent myths and superstitions surrounding the condition in many African communities.

A novel approach for in situ benthic habitat characterization

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Habitat heterogeneity is a key driver of temporal and spatial variability of subtidal marine benthic biodiversity. However, this makes it a challenging environment in which to measure and quantify the factors driving biodiversity in a consistent manner.
