Acoustic levitation and its application in estimation of high power sound field

Acoustic levitation has been studied using airborne radiation from a high power magnetostrictive ferrite transducer of frequency 18 kHz. Spherical solid objects as well as liquid drops of varying weight and radii have been levitated under I G at the velocity antinodes of the standing waves formed with the help of a reflector. The dependence of the maximum weight of a spherical object that can be levitated on the sound pressure level and the radius of the obstacle has been studied. An attempt has been made to estimate the radiated high power sound intensity from the maximum weight of the spherical object that can be levitated.     

Roper resonance—Its static and dynamic properties from single- and double-pion production

In most investigations the Roper resonance is sensed only very indirectly via complex partial wave analyses. We find indications for its excitation in the pp→npπ⁺ reaction, where some resonance-like structure is observed in the invariant nπ⁺ mass spectrum at with a width of 150 MeV. The values fit very favorably to the most recent phase shift results as well as to the observations at BES. In near-threshold two-pion production pp→ppπ⁰π⁰ the Roper excitation and its subsequent decay into Nππ is the only dominant process. There we find its decay into the Nσ channel as the dominating decay process — in favor of a monopole nature of the Roper excitation.

Scanning Hartmann test method and its application to lens aberration measurement

A scanning Hartmann test method is proposed and its measurement principle is described. The scanning Hartmann test setup is formed by modifying the Hartmann screen of the conventional Hartmann test setup. With the rotation of the scanning Hartmann screen and the improved hole arrangement, the whole information of the lens to be tested in the full aperture can be obtained. The measurement accuracy of the aberration is improved and the local error of the lens can be got. In the method, no change of the Hartmann screen is needed for measuring the lenses of different aperture sizes. Experimental results of aberration measurements of two lenses are given to verify the usefulness of the setup.

Laser induced threshold photoemission magnetic circular dichroism and its application to photoelectron microscope

This work enlightens the threshold photoemission magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) and its adaption on photoemission electron microscopy (PEEM) using lasers. MCD is a simple and efficient way to investigate magnetic properties since it does not need any spin analyzers with low efficiency, and thus the MCD related techniques have developed to observe magnetic domains. Usually, MCD in a total yield measurement in the valence band with weak spin–orbit coupling (SOC) excited by low photon energy (hν≤ 6 eV) does not compete with the X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) with strong SOC. XMCD PEEM observation of magnetic domains has been successfully established while MCD PEEM derived from valence bands has not been. However, using angle and energy resolved photoelectron, valence band MCD provides large asymmetry similar to that by XMCD. Threshold measurement of photoelectron in a total electron yield procedure can take advantage of the measurement of photoelectrons with a limited angle and energy mode. This restriction of the photoelectron makes the threshold MCD technique an efficient way to get magnetic information and gives more than 10% asymmetry for Ni/Cu(0 0 1), which is comparable to that obtained by angle resolved photoemission. Thus the threshold MCD technique is a suitable method to observe magnetic domains by PEEM. For threshold MCD, incident angle dependence and high sensitivity to out-of-plane magnetized films compared with in-plane ones are discussed. Ultrashort pulse lasers make it feasible to measure two photon photoemission MCD combined with PEEM, where resonant excitation has a possibility to enhance dichroic asymmetry. Recent results for valence band magnetic dichroism PEEM are presented.     

Hudson模型适用性及储层微观建模应用*

为明确裂缝间相互作用对各向异性的影响，本文以Hudson模型为例分析了裂缝密度、裂缝倾角对地震波波场、弹性常数和Thomsen系数的影响规律，然后采用“基质-骨架-流体”组合化的方法进行了裂缝储层微观尺度的建模，并与实际测井资料进行了对比。结果表明该模型适用条件为低裂缝密度储层，二阶模型适用的裂缝密度范围比一阶模型大，但在裂缝密度过大时，二阶模型会出现不收敛的现象，模型便不再适用。裂缝储层纵横波速度随裂缝倾角增大而增大，纵波速度对裂缝倾角更为敏感。另外，在与实际测井曲线对比时，在高裂缝密度地层二阶模型的应用效果明显优于一阶模型，说明了在高裂缝密度储层考虑裂缝间的相互作用的必要性。     

Acoustic scattering from density and sound speed gradients: modeling of oceanic pycnoclines

A weak-scattering model that allows prediction of acoustic scattering from oceanic pycnoclines (and the accompanying sound speed gradients) based on hydrographic profiles is described. Model predictions, based on profiles from four locations, indicate that scattering from oceanic pycnoclines is measurable using standard scientific sonars operating at frequencies up to 200 kHz but generally only for pycnocline thicknesses less than 10 m. Accurate scattering models are key to assessing whether acoustic remote sensing can be used to map oceanic pycnoclines and for determining whether scattering from pycnoclines needs to be taken into account when estimating, for instance, zooplankton abundance from acoustic data.     

Noise estimation in single- and multiple-coil magnetic resonance data based on statistical models

Noise estimation is a challenging task in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with applications in quality assessment, filtering or diffusion tensor estimation. Main noise estimators based on the Rician model are revisited and classified in this article, and new useful methods are proposed. Additionally, all the surveyed estimators are extended to the noncentral chi model, which applies to multiple-coil MRI and some important parallel imaging algorithms for accelerated acquisitions. The proposed new noise estimation procedures, based on the distribution of local moments, show better performance in terms of smaller variance and unbiased estimation over a wide range of experiments, with the additional advantage of not needing to explicitly segment the background of the image.     

Muographic imaging with a multi-layered telescope and its application to the study of the subsurface structure of a volcano

In conventional muography observations using two detectors for muon tracking, the accidental coincidence of vertical electromagnetic showers generates identical trajectories to the muon tracks. Although muography has favorable properties, which allow direct density measurements inside a volcano, the measured density is lower than the actual value due to these fortuitous trajectories. We performed muography of Usu volcano, and confirmed that, in comparison with a use of two detectors, background noise levels were reduced by more than one order of magnitude using seven detectors for selecting linear trajectories. The resultant muographic image showed a high-density region underneath the central region of Usu volcano. This picture is consistent with the magma intrusion model proposed in previous studies. To clarify the three-dimensional location and actual size of the detected high-density body, multidirectional muographic measurements are necessary.

Acoustic flow in the resonator throat: Experiment and computational modeling

This paper is devoted to the study of acoustic flow in the Helmholtz resonator throat. The presented results of a complex investigation on the basis of data of a physical experiment and a mathematical modeling, their comparative analysis, and comparison with theoretical estimations provide a rather complete image of the acoustic flow formation and, in particular, enable one to obtain qualitative and quantitative dependences of the averaged velocity component in the resonator throat at different powers of an exciting sound wave.     

Fusion of theq-vertex operators and its application to solvable vertex models

We diagonalize the transfer matrix of the inhomogeneous vertex models of the 6-vertex type in the anti-ferroelectric regime directly in the infinite lattice. For this purpose we have introduced new types ofq-vertex operators. The special cases of those transfer matrices were used to diagonalize the s-d exchange model [23, 1, 6]. New vertex operators are constructed from the level one vertex operators by the fusion procedure. Using this construction we determine the commutation relations among new vertex operators which play a crucial role for the diagnoalization. In order to clarify the quasi-particle structure of the model we estabish new isomorphisms of crystals. The isomorphisms figure out, representation theoretically, the ground state degenerations.

Broadly tunable UV-blue picosecond pulsed laser and its application for biological imaging

We have achieved a rapid and random wavelength tuned picosecond pulsed laser and a widely tunable UV-blue picosecond pulsed laser by using the intracavity second harmonic generation of the laser. The tuning range was from 384 to 434 nm with picosecond pulse oscillation. In addition, we demonstrated biological imaging using a fluorescent protein excited by the widely tunable UV-blue picosecond pulsed laser. We found that the laser is suitable for biological imaging using the fluorescent protein as an excitation light source without damages.     

Acoustic variability in vibrato and its perceptual significance

Historically, studies of vocal vibrato have concentrated on pulse rate as being a primary factor in determining whether a given vocal movement is a good or bad vibrato or a tremolo or wobble. More recently, investigators have been studying the extent of frequency variation and amplitude variation around their respective means in order to determine their influence on the perception of vibrato. The present study is an additional attempt to understand the three parameters comprising vibrato, their interrelationship, and their relationship to perception. Samples of sustained sung tones were obtained primarily from recordings. The samples were digitized using a 16-bit A/D converter at a sampling frequency of 10 kHz. Each digitized sample was converted to a useful format for marking purposes in order to derive information on vibrato pulse rate, the mean frequency of the tone, the semitone deviation around the mean, percent frequency deviation and percent amplitude variation around the mean amplitude. Data presentation utilizes representative samples of good vibrato, tremolo and wobble and describes differences in waveforms which may impact on perception.
