Monitoring in the Physical Channels of Optical Access Networks
This research concerns the issues of monitoring in the physical channels optical access networks. This is relevant because automated diagnostic and monitoring systems in passive optical networks (PONs) are not available at the moment. The authors discuss

Theoretical and Experimental Studies of Micro-Surface Crack Detections Based on BOTDA
Micro-surface crack detection is important for the health monitoring of civil structures. The present literature review shows that micro-surface cracks can be detected by the Brillouin scattering process in optical fibers.

Denoising of BOTDR Dynamic Strain Measurement Using Convolutional Neural Networks
The Brillouin optical time domain reflectometry (BOTDR) system measures the distributed strain and temperature information along the optic fibre by detecting the Brillouin gain spectra (BGS) and finding the Brillouin frequency shift profiles.

Pseudo-Goldstone magnons in the frustrated S=3/2 Heisenberg helimagnet ZnCr2Se4 with a pyrochlore magnetic sublattice [PDF]
Low-energy spin excitations in any long-range ordered magnetic system in the absence of magnetocrystalline anisotropy are gapless Goldstone modes emanating from the ordering wave vectors.

3D characterization of individual grains of coexisting high-pressure H2O ice phases by time-domain Brillouin scattering [PDF]
Time-domain Brillouin scattering (TDBS) uses ultrashort laser pulses to (i) generate coherent acoustic pulses of picoseconds duration in a solid sample and (ii) follow their propagation in order to image material inhomogeneities with the axial resolution that can be deeply sub-optical, to nm-scale, and the lateral one down to the optical diffraction ...

Incoherent Quasielastic Neutron Scattering Study of Molecular dynamics of 4-n-cyano-4'-octylbiphenyl [PDF]
We report incoherent quasielastic neutron scattering experiments on the thermotropic liquid crystal 4-n-cyano-4'-octylbiphenyl. The combination of time-of-flight and backscattering data allows analyzing the intermediate scattering function over about ...
