System of AFIS Officer for Air Navigation Service providers

This paper focuses on the provision of the Aerodrome Flight Information Service (AFIS) in the Czech Republic. It examines the functioning and the requirements on the AFIS from the view of the national audit office. Specially, it examines current requirements for the training system of new AFIS officers. Based on these findings, and by comparing the AFIS with Air traffic control service (ATC), the author of the article attempts to assess whether the current training system and the requirements for the applicants are sufficient by comparing the AFIS with the Air traffic control service. The result of the analysis is the presentation of hypotheses concerning new proposals and recommendations that could be adopted to the training and regulatory framework in accordance to the fact, that AFIS belongs to Air traffic services ATS

Note: Finger Imaging: A 21st Century Solution to Welfare Fraud at our Fingertips

This Note describes the finger imaging process and summarizes the current New York Social Services law regarding public assistance. It also outlines the current finger imaging bill before the New York State Legislature. Part III examines and considers the two major policy arguments against the implementation of the program. Part IV outlines the legal controversy regarding finger imaging and addresses each express concern as well as constitutional issues. Part V compares New York\u27s finger imaging legislation with similar legislation already in place in California and argues that the New York program will be as effective as California\u27s. In conclusion, this Note urges the New York State Legislature to enact a statewide finger imaging requirement for public assistance and embrace the finger imaging system as an effective and proper method of combatting welfare fraud in the state

Superconductivity at metal-antiferromagnetic insulator interfaces

Magnons in antiferromagnetic insulators couple strongly to conduction electrons in adjacent metals. We show that this interfacial tie can lead to superconductivity in a tri-layer consisting of a metal sandwiched between two antiferromagnetic insulators. The critical temperature is closely related to the magnon gap, which can be in the THz range. We estimate the critical temperature in MnF$_2$-Au-MnF$_2$ to be on the order of 1 K. The Umklapp scattering at metal-antiferromagnet interfaces leads to a d-wave superconductive pairing, in contrast to the p-wave superconductivity mediated by magnons in ferromagnets.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figure

Magnetic properties of antiferromagnetically coupled CoFeB/Ru/CoFeB

This work reports on the thermal stability of two amorphous CoFeB layers coupled antiferromagnetically via a thin Ru interlayer. The saturation field of the artificial ferrimagnet which is determined by the coupling, J, is almost independent on the annealing temperature up to more than 300 degree C. An annealing at more than 325 degree C significantly increases the coercivity, Hc, indicating the onset of crystallization.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

Crossing the threshold: a critical analysis of Levantine domestic architecture

Archaeologists studying ancient domestic architecture are often confronted with highly fragmentary architectural remains. This lack of data could lead to a focus on the visual comparison of floor plans as the most reliable and accessible source of information, or the exclusion of fragmentary structures altogether. It is argued, however, that all architectural remains carry a wide range of possibly meaningful information, which can be analyzed using an equally wide range of approaches. As an example, a set of highly fragmentary houses from the Northern Levantine region, dated to the Iron Age I period, was subjected to a quantitative, formal, technological, contextual and urban analysis, offering a diverse picture of the ancient architecture and its inhabitant
