AiResearch QCGAT engine: Acoustic test results [PDF]
The noise levels of the quiet, general aviation turbofan (QCGAT) engine were measured in ground static noise tests. The static noise levels were found to be markedly lower than the demonstrably quiet AiResearch model TFE731 engine.

A heterogeneous III‐V/SiN platform for lasers at 800 nm is realized using the micro‐transfer printing method. Efficient GaAs gain sections are directly butt‐coupled to SiN waveguides, enabling continuous‐wave and mode‐locked extended‐cavity lasers. The mode‐locked lasers generate highly stable pulse trains with repetition rates up to 9.2 GHz and a ...

Pulse Generation by On‐Chip Dispersion Compensation at 8 µm Wavelength
This work demonstrates on‐chip pulse generation at 8 μm$\mathrm{\mu}\mathrm{m}$ using chirped Bragg gratings in SiGe graded‐index photonic circuits to compensate the quadratic phase of quantum cascade laser frequency combs. With this approach pulses as short as 1.39 ps were produced, close to the transform limit, representing a key step toward compact,

Defining Quality of Life: The Perspective of People Living with Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Little is known about how people with Parkinson's conceptualize “quality of life.” Objective To describe the meaning of “quality of life” from the perspective of people with Parkinson's. Methods Participants (N = 42) were asked “What does the term ‘quality of life’ mean to you?” Definitions were analyzed using inductive qualitative ...
