1 Furse, Cynthia M.Capacitance and inductance sensor circuits for detecting the lengths of open- and short-circuited wiresThe length of an open- or short-circuited wire is linearly proportional to the capacitance or inductance of the wire, respectively. Several types of simple and inexpensive circuits are introduced to measure these values. Open-circuited (capacitance) measurements are very effective. Short-circuited ...Aging aircraft wire; Capacitance sensors; Fault detection; Inductance sensors2009-08
2 Gondolo, PaoloDark matter axions revisitedWe study for what specific values of the theoretical parameters the axion can form the totality of cold dark matter. We examine the allowed axion parameter region in the light of recent data collected by the WMAP5 mission plus baryon acoustic oscillations and supernovae, and assume an inflationary...WMAP5 mission; PQ symmetry; Anharmonicity; Misalignment angle2009-08
3 Harrison, Reid R.HermesC: low-power wireless neural recording system for freely moving primatesNeural prosthetic systems have the potential to restore lost functionality to amputees or patients suffering from neurological injury or disease. Current systems have primarily been designed for immobile patients, such as tetraplegics functioning in a rather static, carefully tailored environment....Brain-machine interface; Low power; Neural prosthetics; Telemetry; Wireless; Neural recording; HermesC2009-08
4 Sokolsky, PierreMeasurement of the flux of ultra high energy cosmic rays by the stereo techniqueThe High Resolution Fly's Eye (HiRes) experiment has measured the flux of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays using the stereoscopic air fluorescence technique. The HiRes experiment consists of two detectors that observe cosmic ray showers via the fluorescence light they emit. HiRes data can be analyzed i...Ultrahigh energy cosmic rays; Fluorescence; Energy spectrum; GZK cutoff2009-08
5 Cashdan, Elizabeth A.Sex differences in aggression: what does evolutionary theory predict?The target article claims that evolutionary theory predicts the emergence of sex differences in aggression in early childhood, and that there will be no sex difference in anger. It also finds an absence of sex differences in spousal abuse in Western societies. All three are puzzling from an evolutio...2009-08
6 DeTar, CarletonVisualization of semileptonic form factors from lattice QCDComparisons of lattice-QCD calculations of semileptonic form factors with experimental measurements often display two sets of points, one each for lattice QCD and experiment. Here we propose to display the output of a lattice-QCD analysis as a curve and error band. This is justified, because lattice...Semileptonic decay2009-08
7 Harrison, Reid R.Wireless neural recording with single low-power integrated circuitWe present benchtop and in vivo experimental results from an integrated circuit designed for wireless implantable neural recording applications. The chip, which was fabricated in a commercially available 0.6- m 2P3M BiCMOS process, contains 100 amplifiers, a 10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC...2009-08
