Pixel scaling in infrared focal plane arrays
(2013)
We discuss effects that arise in pixels of IR focal plane arrays (FPAs) when pixel size scales down to approach the wavelength of the incident radiation. To study these effects, we perform first-principles electromagnetic ...
Construction and demonstration of a multispectral tomographic scanning imager (TOSCA)
(2013)
This work presents the first experimental demonstrator of an imager based on a tomographic scanning (TOSCA) principle. The device described generates a stream of multispectral images of a scene or target using simple conical ...
Rapid Identification of Bacillus anthracis Spores in Suspicious Powder Samples by Using Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS)
(2013)
Rapid and reliable identification of Bacillus anthracis spores in suspicious powders is important to mitigate the safety risks and economic burdens associated with such incidents. The aim of this study was to develop and ...
Preparation and characterisation of epoxy/alumina polymer nanocomposites
(2013)
The effect of adding nanosized alumina fillers of both fibre-like and spherical shapes to an epoxy polymer has been investigated. The alumina was dispersed in the epoxy hardener using two different sonication techniques. ...
A simulation of cross-country skiing on varying terrain by using a mathematical power balance model
(2013)
The current study simulated cross-country skiing on varying terrain by using a power balance model. By applying the hypothetical inductive deductive method, we compared the simulated position along the track with actual ...
Capacities of metabotropic glutamate modulators in counteracting soman-induced seizures in rats
(2013)
The mechanisms underlying insulin sensitivity and fat tissue distribution in chronic renal insufficiency remain unclear. Previous studies have shown the benefits of angiotensin II receptor blockers on moderately nourished ...
Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Is Increasing in Norway: A Time Series Analysis of Reported MRSA and Methicillin-Sensitive S. aureus Cases, 1997–2010
(2013)
The current study simulated cross-country skiing on varying terrain by using a power balance model. By applying the hypothetical inductive deductive method, we compared the simulated position along the track with actual ...
Legionella and non-Legionella bacteria in a biological treatment plant
(2013)
Legionella pneumophila were previously identified in the aeration ponds (up to 1010 CFU/L) of a biological wastewater treatment plant at Borregaard Ind. Ltd., Sarpsborg, Norway, and in air samples (up to 3300 CFU/m3) ...
Mixel camera - a new push-broom camera concept for high spatial resolution keystone-free hyperspectral imaging
(2013)
Current high-resolution push-broom hyperspectral cameras introduce keystone errors to the captured data. Efforts to correct these errors in hardware severely limit the optical design, in particular with respect to light ...
