The symlectic quantum tomography for the general linear quantization is introduced. Using the approach based upon the Wigner function techniques the evolution equation of quantum tomograms is derived for a parametric driven oscillator.Comment: 11 page

Visualization of the 3-dimensional flow around a model with the aid of a laser knife

A method for visualizing the three-dimensional flow around models of various shapes in a wind tunnel at a Mach number of 5 is described. A laser provides a planar light flux such that any plane through the model can be selectively illuminated. The shape of shock waves and separation regions is then determined by the intensity of light scattered by soot particles in the flow

Change in stability of solid solution at radiation influence

Stability of solid solution at radiation influence has been investigated. Expressions for diffusion streams of binary alloy components, which specify the existence of temperature interval in which the phenomenon of ascending diffusion of elements is observed, were received. Vacancy characters of diffusion, configuration entropy, and potential energy of atomic bonds were considered at derivation. The ascending diffusion testifies to stability infringement of homogeneous solid solution - stratification. Influence of radiation is connected with increase in concentration of vacancies which changes the energy of atomic bonds and, simultaneously, accelerates diffusion processes. The condition of alloy stability with regard to stratification at radiating influence was obtaine

Features of electronic transport in relaxed Si/Si1-X GeX heterostructures with high doping level

The low-temperature electrical and magnetotransport characteristics of partially relaxed Si/Si1-x Gex heterostructures with two-dimensional electron channel (ne≥1012 cm-2) in an elastically strained silicon layer of nanometer thickness have been studied. The detailed calculation of the potential and of the electrons distribution in layers of the structure was carried out to understand the observed phenomena. The dependence of the tunneling transparency of the barrier separating the 2D and 3D transport channels in the structure, was studied as a function of the doping level, the degree of blurring boundaries, layer thickness, degree of relaxation of elastic stresses in the layers of the structure. Tunnel characteristics of the barrier between the layers were manifested by the appearance of a tunneling component in the current-voltage characteristics of real structures. Instabilities, manifested during the magnetotransport measurements using both weak and strong magnetic fields are explained by the transitions of charge carriers from the two-dimensional into three-dimensional state, due to interlayer tunneling transitions of electrons. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.

A.Eye Drive: gaze-based semi-autonomous wheelchair interface

Existing wheelchair control interfaces, such as sip & puff or screen based gaze-controlled cursors, are challenging for the severely disabled to navigate safely and independently as users continuously need tointeract with an interface during navigation. This putsa significant cognitive load on users and prevents them from interacting with the environment in other forms during navigation. We have combined eyetracking/gaze-contingent intention decoding with computervision context-awarealgorithms and autonomous navigation drawn fromself-driving vehicles to allow paralysed users to drive by eye, simply by decoding natural gaze about where the user wants to go: A.Eye Drive. Our “Zero UI” driving platform allows users to look and interact visually with at an objector destination of interest in their visual scene, and the wheelchairautonomously takes the user to the intended destination, while continuously updating the computed path for static and dynamic obstacles. This intention decoding technology empowers the end-user by promising more independence through their own agency
