Nonlinear Shaping in the Picosecond Gap
Lightwave pulse shaping in the picosecond regime has remained unaddressed because it resides beyond the limits of state-of-the-art techniques, due to either its inherently narrow spectral content or fundamental speed limitations in electronic devices ...

Gender wage gap - occupation and industries analysis for Poland [PDF]
Remuneration is a measure of the purchasing power of the population that shows how wealthy the given society is. Analysis of remuneration received by different groups provides information about inequalities between and within the analyzed groups.

Factors shaping the gender wage gap among college-educated computer science workers
Encouraging women to pursue STEM employment is frequently touted as a means of reducing the gender wage gap. We examine whether the attributes of computer science workers-who account for nearly half of those working in STEM jobs-explain the persistent ...

Joint Shaping of Geometry and Probability based on Mutual Information Neural Estimation
In view of the problem that quadrature amplitude modulation has 1.53 dB capacity gap at the Shannon limit in high signal noise ratio, the paper proposes a joint shaping method of geometry and probability based on mutual information neural estimation ...

Spatially Shaping Waves to Penetrate Deep inside a Forbidden Gap [PDF]
It is well known that waves incident upon a crystal are transported only over a limited distance - the Bragg length - before being reflected by Bragg interference. Here, we demonstrate how to send waves much deeper into crystals, by studying light in exemplary two-dimensional silicon photonic crystals.

Shaping the scaling characteristics of gap gene expression patterns in Drosophila
How patterns are formed to scale with tissue size remains an unresolved problem. Here we investigate embryonic patterns of gap gene expression along the anterior-posterior (AP) axis in Drosophila.

Performance of combined constellation shaping and bit interleaved coded modulation with iterative decoding (BICM-ID) [PDF]
The increasing demand of achieving high data rates in modern communication systems requires highly efficient bandwidth utilization. For this purpose, multilevel modulation schemes are used in association with forward error correction (FEC) codes in order

Synthesis of Application-Optimized Air Gap Field Distributions in Synchronous Machines
This paper deals with the method of shaping the magnetic field distribution in the air gap of a synchronous machine. The main goal is to obtain a specific distribution of the magnetic field in the machine’s air gap to enable easier powering, to increase ...

Astroglial gap junctions shape neuronal network activity [PDF]
Astrocytes, the third element of the tripartite synapse, are active players in neurotransmission. Up to now, their involvement in neuronal functions has primarily been investigated at the single cell level. However, a key property of astrocytes is that they communicate via extensive networks formed by gap junction channels. Recently, we have shown that
