401 Gerton, JordanApertureless near-field fluorescence microscope for biological imagingWe measured the optical response of fluorescent beads to sharp metallic and semiconducting probes, revealing several underlying near-field interactions. Our results suggest that -10 nanometer optical resolution with spectroscopic chemical sensitivity is possible, and bear strongly on molecular-scal...2003-01-01
402 Vardeny, Zeev Valentine; Ehrenfreund, Eitan A.Apparent phonon side-band modes in π-conjugated systems: polymers, oligomers and crystalsThe emission spectra of many π-conjugated polymers and oligomers contain side-band replicas with apparent frequencies that do not match the Raman active mode frequencies. Using a time dependent model we show that in such many mode systems, the increased damping of the time dependent transition dipo...2005-11
403 Henderson, Thomas C.Apparent symmetries in range dataA procedure for extracting symmetrical features from the output of a range scanner is described which is insensitive to sensor noise and robust with respect to object surface complexity. The acquisition of symmetry descriptors for rigid bodies from a range image was in this case motivated by the ne...Symmetry descriptors; Range data; Range scanner; Dextrous manipulation systems1987
404 Vardeny, Zeev Valentine; Ehrenfreund, Eitan A.Apparent vibrational side bands in rr-conjugated systems: the case of distyrylbenzeneThe photoluminescence sPLd spectra of dilute solution and single crystals of distyrylbenzene show unique temperature-dependent vibronic structures. The characteristic single frequency progression at high temperatures is modulated by a low-frequency progression series at low temperatures.

406 Furse, Cynthia M.Application of phase detection frequency domain reflectometry for locating faults in an F-18 flight control harnessThe performance of a phase-detection frequency-domain reflectometer (PD-FDR) for locating open and short circuits (hard faults) in a Navy F-18 flight control harness has been tested, and the analytical expressions for accuracy verified. Nine different types of aircraft wires appear in this harness:...Phase detection; Frequency domain reflectometry; PD-FDR; Wire fault location; Aging wire; Flight control harness2005-05
407 Symko, Orest GeorgeApplication of SQUID magnetometer to nuclear magnetic thermometryThis paper presents an application of a SQUID magnetometer for low temperature thermometry using the magnetic properties of a nuclear paramagnet. The static magnetization of a material which obeys Curie's law provides a very sensitive means of thermometry. Also included in the device is the capabi...SQUID magnetometer; Nuclear magnetic thermometry; Low temperature thermometry1976
408 Boll, Steven F.Application of the saber method for improved spectral analysis of noisy speechA stand alone noise suppression algorithm is described for reducing the spectral effects of acoustically added noise in speech. A fundamental result is developed which shows that the spectral magnitude of speech plus noise can be effectively approximated as the sum of magnitudes of speech and noise....Noise suppression algorithm; SABER method1977
409 Riesenfeld, Richard F.The application of total positivity to computer aided curve and surface designOf particular importance in an interactive curve and surface design system is the interface to the user. The mathematical model employed in the system must be sufficiently flexible for interaction between designer and machine to converge to a satisfactory result. The mathematical theory of Total Pos...interactive curves; total positivity1979
410 Mattis, Daniel C.Application of tridiagonalization to the many-body problemThe problem of a single magnetic, Wolff-model impurity in an otherwise ideal metallic host is investigated using the nonperturbative Lanczos method. Convergence is very rapid. The many-body ground-state energy is investigated and comparisons are made with Tomonaga operator theory and other weak-coup...Lattice; Electrons; Interaction; Ground-state energy; Tridiagonalization; Magnetic impurity; Nonmagnetic metals1983
411 Mattis, Daniel C.Application of tridiagonalization to the many-body problem. II. Finite TIn a previous paper of the same title, we obtained the ground-state energy of a magnetic (Wolff-model) impurity in a nonmagnetic metal. In the present Brief Report, we calculate the impurity's contribution to the density of states and heat capacity of the metal at low temperatures. Here, the Lancz...Ground-state energy; Tridiagonalization; Magnetic impurity; Nonmagnetic metals; Heat capacity1984-06

418 Golden, Kenneth M.Arbitrarily slow approach to limiting behaviorABSTRACT. Let f(k, t): RN x [0, oo) -- R be jointly continuous in k and t, with lim(t)--(oo) f(k, t) = F(k) discontinuous for a dense set of k's. It is proven that there exists a dense set T of k's such that, for k e T , |f(k, t) - F(k)| approaches 0 arbitrarily slowly, i.e., roughly speaking, more ...Random; Conductivity; Diffusion1991

421 Parker, Bradley J.Archaeological manifestations of empire: Assyrias imprint on Southeastern AnatoliaOne of the most enduring problems for the study of ancient empires is the fact that material correlates indicative of imperial integration are often difficult to define in the archaeological record. This situation results in part from two factors that distinguish empires from other less complex poli...2003-01-01
422 Myers, Chris J.Architectural synthesis of timed asynchronous systemsThis paper describes a new method for architectural synthesis of timed asynchronous systems. Due to the variable delays associated with asynchronous resources, implicit schedules are created by the addition of supplementary constraints between resources. Since the number of schedules grows exponenti...1999
