    A new year's greeting card from Mamoru and Tsuru Yamauchi in Gardena, California to the Okine family.The Okine Collection contains materials collected by Seiichi and Tomeyo Okine who were Issei flower growers in Whittier, California. It includes correspondence, photographs, financial documents, and a photo album. A large portion of the collection consists of family correspondence with Seiichi and Tomeyo Okine, including letters from their Nisei children, Masao and Makoto Okine, both soldiers overseas during World War II, to their Issei parents incarcerated in the Rohwer incarceration camp in McGehee, Arkansas. The correspondence also includes letters from their relatives and friends who are former incarcerees in the camps during the war and have “resettled” in Chicago, Illinois as well as letters from the Okines’ family members in Hiroshima, Japan during the Allied occupation of Japan. In addition, the collection includes a family photo album compiled by Dorothy Ai Aoki, a Nisei daughter to the Okines

    We present a beam-scanning multiplex coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microspectroscopy system using parallel excitation and parallel detection schemes based on an elliptical focal spot, which enables highly efficient signal acquisition even for short exposures. The elliptical focal spot was used to simultaneously observe the CARS signals of an enlarged region and reduce the peak irradiance. The developed system realized an acquisition rate of 34 139 spectra/s and enabled ultrahigh-speed acquisition of a vibrational spectroscopic image, covering the fingerprint region of 930–1830 cm-¹ with 256(x) × 256(y) × 512(spectrum) pixels in 1.92 s or with 128(x) × 128(y) × 256(spectrum) pixels in 0.54 s. We demonstrated ultrahigh-speed hyperspectral imaging of a mixture of polymer beads in liquid linoleic acid and living adipocytes using the developed system. All of the present demonstrations were performed with a low-peak irradiance excitation of ∼19 GW/cm², which has been reported in previous studies to cause less photodamage to living cells. The label-free and ultrahigh-speed identification and visualization of various molecules made possible by the present system will accelerate the development of practical live-cell investigation

    Avoidance of four-wave mixing in optical fiber bundle for coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering endomicroscopy

    We propose and demonstrate a method of suppressing four-wave mixing (FWM) in an optical fiber bundle to realize coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering(CARS) endomicroscopy, which is the leading candidate for a definitive diagnosis of gastrointestinal cancer. Two excitation laser beams with different wave-lengths are delivered via different cores to suppress FWM and are then combined with a polarization prism and a dual-wavelength waveplate and are focused to a spot. The background emission from the optical fiber bundle was suppressed to 1/3,289, and we demonstrated CARS imaging of a polystyrene bead using the proposed method

    ABSTRACT Novitasari, Dian Rizky. 2018. "The concept of Omoiyari Reflected on the Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki Film by Hosoda Mamoru". Thesis of Japanese Culture and Literature, Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Diponegoro University, Semarang. Advisor Budi Mulyadi, S.Pd, M.Hum and Arsi Widiandari, SS, M.Si. The material object in this study is the Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki film by Hosoda Mamoru. While the formal object in this study is the omoiyari value. The method that used is the literature study method. The theory used in this study is the narrative element by Himawan Pratista and omoiyari by Takie Sugiyama Lebra. The results showed that there were four types of omoiyari, omoiyari in maintenance of consensus, omoiyari in optimization of alter’s comfort, omoiyari in social echo effect and omoiyari towards guilt. In addition, the author understands that the four types of omoiyari have almost the same purpose, that is, making others feel comfortable because of the omoiyari. Keywords: Film, Anime, Omoiyari, Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki, Hosoda Mamoru
