New design of electrostatic mirror actuators for application in high-precision interferometry [PDF]
We describe a new geometry for electrostatic actuators to be used in sensitive laser interferometers, suited for prototype and table top experiments related to gravitational wave detection with mirrors of 100 g or less.

Strain and Strain Rate Echocardiography
Myocardial function is eventually determined by the shortening and lengthening of myocardium, i.e., myocardial deformation or strain. The exact and direct measure of myocardial deformation has been dependent on the in vitro analysis of myocardial length.

High-extinction-ratio TE/TM selective Bragg grating filters on silicon-on-insulator [PDF]
We report on the design and fabrication of TE and TM polarization selective Bragg grating filters in the form of sinusoidal perturbations on the waveguide sidewall and etched holes on the top of the waveguide, respectively.

Hilbert Expansion from the Boltzmann equation to relativistic Fluids [PDF]
We study the local-in-time hydrodynamic limit of the relativistic Boltzmann equation using a Hilbert expansion. More specifically, we prove the existence of local solutions to the relativistic Boltzmann equation that are nearby the local relativistic ...

Rheometer Strain and Strain-Rate Errors [PDF]
We have found systematic errors which can affect measured rheological properties in the instrumentation of two commercial rheometers. Users of commercial instrumentation should establish the extent to which these and similar errors may exist in their systems.
