Back to the future: Valentin Magnan, French psychiatry, and the classification of mental diseases, 1885-1925
One of the most curious gaps in the historiography of French psychiatry is the era between the fin de siecle and the 1920's, years that overlapped the life and career of Valentin Magnan (1835-1916), a pivotal figure in the historical classification of mental diseases. Magnan was in many ways a tragic figure, someone who lived and worked at a time when circumstances conspired against him and his efforts to reform psychiatric classification. Essentially Magnan had the misfortune to practice psychiatry when Emil Kraepelin's influence began to spread beyond Germany's borders, sparking a nationalist reaction that penalized both French Kraepelinians and Magnan, whose theories shared similarities with Kraepelin's. But Magnan's stature also suffered because of the intense internecine quarrels that arose in late-19th-century French psychiatry. Magnan was no helpless victim, though, and there is reason to believe that some of the criticism directed at him was based on documented personal failings. Ultimately, Magnan's theory of psychiatric classification was overtaken by these and other events in French psychiatry, culminating in the emergence of a new national nosological paradigm that has dominated French psychiatry for most of the 20th century. Magnan was in many respects a pariah within French psychiatry by the early 20th century. An examination of his career casts light on this crucial turning-point in the history of French psychiatry and indicates why and how the new model of classification was more to the tastes of his medical colleagues.Abstracter: JSource type: Electronic(1

The Nature of Boehm-Bawerk's Capital Market
The capital market in Böhm-Bawerk's Positive Theory of Capital appears at several places. The last chapter of the book provides the complete exposition of Böhm's view of this market where present goods are exchanged for future goods. Studying this exposition leads to understand that many variables, prices as well as quantities, are determined together in this ``enormous market''. The capital market is a macroeconomic system, the nature of which we try to assess.Böhm-Bawerk, capital, market, macroeconomics

Low-frequency noise impact on CMOS image sensors
CMOS image sensors are nowadays extensively used in imaging applications even for high-end applications. This is really possible thanks to a reduction of noise obtained, among others, by Correlated Double Sampling (CDS) readout. Random Telegraph Signal (RTS) noise has thus become an issue for low light level applications especially in the context of downscaling transistor size. This paper describes the analysis of in-pixel source follower transistor RTS noise filtering by CDS circuit. The measurement of a non Gaussian distribution with a positive skew of image sensor output noise is analysed. Impact of dimensions (W and L) of the in-pixel source follower is demonstrated. Circuit to circuit pixel output noise dispersion on 12 circuits coming from 3 different wafers is also analysed and weak dispersion is seen
