We propose a method of arbitrarily shaping and scaling the temporal intensity correlations of an optical signal locally, avoiding periodic correlations. We demonstrate our approach experimentally using stochastic intensity modulation. We also analyze and simulate shaping both temporal correlations and photon statistics that are fully specified by t...
Active Learning (AL) is an active domain of research, but is seldom used in the industry despite the pressing needs. This is in part due to a misalignment of objectives, while research strives at getting the best results on selected datasets, the industry wants guarantees that Active Learning will perform consistently and at least better than rando...
Impact evaluation in public engagement necessarily requires measuring change. However, this is extremely challenging for drop-in activities due to their very nature. We present a novel method of impact evaluation which integrates graffiti walls into the experience both before and after the main drop-in activity. The activity in question was a sound...
Trapped beneath the Antarctic ice sheet lie over 400 subglacial lakes, which are considered to be extreme, isolated, yet viable habitats for microbial life. The physical conditions within subglacial lakes are critical to evaluating how and where life may best exist. Here, we propose that Earth's geothermal flux provides efficient stirring of Antarc...
Open quantum systems can display periodic dynamics at the classical level either due to external periodic modulations or to self-pulsing phenomena typically following a Hopf bifurcation. In both cases, the quantum fluctuations around classical solutions do not reach a quantum-statistical stationary state, which prevents adopting the simple and reli...

In this study, novel Co60Fe18Ti18B4 alloy powders have been synthesized with high compositional homogeneity using a high-energy ball milling technique. The structural, morphological and mechanical properties of the nanosized alloyed powders were examined using different analytical techniques, including scanning electron microscopy, transmission ele...

Aufgrund des starken Kostendrucks sowie der immer weiter steigenden Variantenvielfalt stellt die Kollaboration von Mensch und Roboter einen möglichen Lösungsvektor für weitere Flexibilisierungs- und Rationalisierungspotenziale in der Montage dar. Die gezielte Ermittlung und Bewertung von Einsatzpotenzialen bildet in der Praxis die Grundlage für den...

This article reports the microstructure evolution in TP347HFG austenitic steel during the aging process. The experiments were carried out at 700°C with different aging time from 500 to 3,650 h. The metallographic results show that the coherent twin and incoherent twin are existed in the original TP347HFG grains, while they gradually vanished with t...

A twenty-five-year-old vacuum furnace is being used for degassing of ultra-high vacuum components. The heat shield assembly of the furnace comprised of one molybdenum (Mo) front sheet, followed by four 304 stainless steel (SS) sheets. During prolonged service of the furnace, SS sheets developed thick black oxide scale. As a part of refurbishment dr...

Oxidative stress is one of the major causes of cellular senescence in mammalian cells. The excess amount of reactive oxygen species generated by oxygen metabolism is pathogenic and facilitates tissue aging. Lung tissue is more susceptible to oxidative stress than other organs because it is directly exposed to environmental stresses. The aging of lu...
