Multiple right-hand side techniques for the numerical simulation of quasistatic electric and magnetic fields

The simulation of slowly varying transient electric high-voltage fields and magnetic fields requires the repeated and successive solution of high-dimensional linear algebraic systems of equations with identical or near-identical system matrices and different right-hand side vectors. For these solution processes which are required within implicit time integration schemes and nonlinear (quasi-)Newton–Raphson methods an iterative multiple right-hand side (mrhs) scheme is used which recycles vector subspaces resulting from previous preconditioned conjugate gradient iteration runs. The combination of this scheme with a subspace projection extrapolation start value generation scheme is discussed. Numerical results for three-dimensional electric and magnetic field simulations are presented and the efficiency of the new schemes re-using eigenvector information from previous iteration processes with different tolerance criteria are compared to those of standard conjugate gradient iterations.     

Photocurrent measurements for laterally resolved interface characterization

A miniaturized optical set-up based on a CD-ROM player optic was developed for LAPS (light addressable potentiometric sensors). A focus of 2.6 μm was achieved using this easy to handle device. The lateral resolution of LAPS measurements can be improved by using GaAs as the semiconductor material instead of Si. The diffusion length of the minority charge carriers was determined to be smaller than 3.1 μm. A new method called SPIM (scanning photo-induced impedance microscopy) is described. Using this technique, the impedance of thin films can be measured with lateral resolution.     

Expressing Forest Origins in the Chemical Composition of Cooperage Oak Woods and Corresponding Wines by Using FTICR‐MS

A non‐targeted, ultra‐high‐resolution mass spectrometric, direct analysis of oak‐wood extracts from two species (Quercus robur L. and Quercus petraea Liebl.) from three French forests, and of a wine aged in barrels derived therefrom has been performed to identify families of metabolites that could discriminate both the species and the geographical origin of woods. From 12 T ultra‐high‐resolution Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectra of wood extracts, hundreds of mass signals were identified as possible significant biomarkers of the two species, with phenolic and carbohydrate moieties leading the differentiation between Q. robur and Q. petraea, respectively, as corroborated by both FTMS and NMR data. For the first time, it is shown that oak woods can also be discriminated on the basis of hundreds of forest‐related compounds, and particular emphasis is put on sessile oaks from the Tronçais forest, for which sugars are significantly discriminant. Despite the higher complexity and diversity of wine metabolites, forest‐related compounds can also be detected in wines aged in related barrels. It is only by using these non‐targeted analyses that such innovative results, which reveal specific chemodiversities of natural materials, can be obtained.
