Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2022 Background. Rhynchophorus palmarum is the main insect pest in Cocos nucifera orchards in the Pacific Centre of Mexico. The mass capture of adults is the strategy for control of this pest promoted by integrated pest management programs. It is essential to

A compact high-flux cold atom beam source [PDF]
, 2011 We report on an efficient and compact high-flux Cs atom beam source based on a retro-reflected two-dimensional magneto-optical trap (2D MOT). We realize an effective pushing field component by tilting the 2D MOT collimators towards a separate three ...

Integration of pheromone and light traps for mass trapping of leopard moth, Zeuzera Pyrina (Lepidoptera: Cossidae) in walnut orchards [PDF]
نامه انجمن حشرهشناسی ایران, 2021 Leopard moth, Zeuzera pyrina L., is a dangerous wood borer pest of the walnut trees in different parts of the world. The larvae bore deep into twigs, branches and trunks, and its chemical, biological and mechanical control is difficult, therefore use of ...

Ion-neutral sympathetic cooling in a hybrid linear rf Paul and magneto-optical trap
, 2012 Long range polarization forces between ions and neutral atoms result in large elastic scattering cross sections, e.g., 10^6 a.u. for Na+ on Na or Ca+ on Na at cold and ultracold temperatures.

Loading Stark-decelerated molecules into electrostatic quadrupole traps [PDF]
, 2009 Beams of neutral polar molecules in a low-field seeking quantum state can be slowed down using a Stark decelerator, and can subsequently be loaded and confined in electrostatic quadrupole traps. The efficiency of the trap loading process is determined by

Single ion heat engine with maximum efficiency at maximum power [PDF]
, 2012 We propose an experimental scheme to realize a nano heat engine with a single ion. An Otto cycle may be implemented by confining the ion in a linear Paul trap with tapered geometry and coupling it to engineered laser reservoirs. The quantum efficiency at

How to capture active particles
, 2012 For many applications, it is important to catch collections of autonomously navigating microbes and man-made microswimmers in a controlled way. Here we propose an efficient trap to collectively capture self-propelled colloidal rods.

Evaluation of sodium trapping efficiency of mesh-pack-type sodium vapor trap. [PDF]
Journal of Nuclear Science and Technology, 1987 In order to improve performance of sodium vapor traps, the effects of the operating conditions on the sodium trapping efficiency has been analyzed using a simplified model of the mesh packed region. Then experimental work was performed to evaluate the model validity. The calculated and the measured values agreed with the maximum deviation of 15%, which
