Waveguide-integrated terahertz-frequency quantum cascade lasers for detection of trace-gas species
We demonstrate high-performance THz QCLs lasing at 2.2, 2.53, 3.5 and 4.7 THz, which target absorption lines of water, methane, hydroxyl and atomic oxygen respectively. Reliable single-mode targeting of gas species is obtained through the use of a photonic lattice design. A highly reproducible micro-machined waveguide block yields narrow beam-divergence and enables future integration of a complete THz heterodyne system including local-oscillator, mixer, and feed-horn
The abolition of the General Teaching Council for England and the future of teacher discipline
With the abolition of the General Teaching Council for England in the 2011 Education Act, this article considers the future of teacher discipline in England. It provides a critique of the changes to the regulation of teacher misconduct and incompetence that draws on a Foucauldian framework, especially concerning the issue of public displays of discipline and the concomitant movement to more hidden forms. In addition, the external context of accountability that accompanies the reforms to teacher discipline are considered including the perfection of the panoptic metaphor presented by the changes to Ofsted practices such as the introduction of zero-notice inspections. The article concludes that the reforms will further move teachers from being occupational professionals to being organisational professionals marking them apart from comparable professions in medicine and law
The subconvexity problem for \GL_{2}
Generalizing and unifying prior results, we solve the subconvexity problem
for the -functions of \GL_{1} and \GL_{2} automorphic representations
over a fixed number field, uniformly in all aspects. A novel feature of the
present method is the softness of our arguments; this is largely due to a
consistent use of canonically normalized period relations, such as those
supplied by the work of Waldspurger and Ichino--Ikeda.Comment: Almost final version to appear in Publ. Math IHES. References
