THz emission from intrinsic Josephson junctions in high-Tc superconductors for imaging applications
No full textIn 2007 [1], we have succeeded in observing strong, coherent, and continuous THz emission from a mesa of Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+s single crystal with a rectangular dimension of a few hundred micrometers in length, several tens of micrometers in width, and a few micrometers in thickness. Since then, great progress has been made both in understanding the fundamental mechanism of the radiation [2-6] and in practical applications [7-9] . References: [1] L. Ozyuzer, A. E. Koshelev, C.

Feminism, Power, & Nuclear Weapons : An Eye on the P5
No full textThis project is a collection of articles from five extraordinary civil society thinkers on feminism and nuclear policy to address this precise question. It is our hope that this work inspires a thoughtful interrogation of the status quo in both personal and professional capacities, and encourages us all to think more creatively and holistically about nuclear policy
Supplementary data set for "Three-Dimensional Time Domain Simulation of Tsunami-Generated Electromagnetic Fields: Application to the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake Tsunami"
No full textFour data files contain processed tsunami magnetic variations at ESA, B14, NWP, and CBI. Please read Section 4.3 in the main article for the detail of the processing. The contents in each file are composed of ten columns;
time [min since 05:46 UTC on March 11, 2011] (one column), high-pass filtered XYZ at the target site (three columns), synthesized XYZ at the target site based on eq. (14) (three columns), and cleaned XYZ at the target site, i.e. data left after subtraction of synthesized data from high-pass filtered data (three columns). For a seafloor site, B14, not the high-pass filtered but just raw time-series are contained in the second to forth columns because of the shortage of the original time series at B14. Readers can easily plot the four data files by using the script, plot_CTS.sh, where CTS stands for Cleaned Time Series. The four postscript files were generated by this script.

Development of a morphological color image processing algorithm for paper-based analytical devices
No full textAlthough fabrication of colorimetric paper-based analytical devices (PADs) has drawn increasing attention recently, the signal readout method is still a crucial challenge on the way to practical exploitations. We herein introduce an integration of digital image processing with a model PAD for easing and improving the signal readout procedure. The colorimetric detection mechanism of PAD relies on in-situ induced yellowish silver nanoparticles via the interaction of silver ions, poly(vinyl alcohol), and ammonia with isoniazid. The observed color value is related with the concentration of isoniazid. The proposed algorithm is based on mathematical morphology recognition, and minimizes the errors arising from manual area selection. Besides, it allows the recognition of both circle and square shapes in 96-well plate and A4 size array designs. Since this algorithm automatically provides the blank-corrected numerical matrixes and image profiles of red, green and blue channels, further investigations such as outlier classification, construction of regression/prediction models and calculation of detection limit can be easily performed. Comparison of signal readout results of the developed algorithm with ImageJ software demonstrates significant improvements in analysis speed, reproducibility, accuracy and color values. Therefore, application of the proposed algorithm is promising as a robust technique for practical applications
