Velocity vector control system augmented with direct lift control
A pilot-controlled stability control system that employs direct lift control (spoiler control) with elevator control to control the flight path angle of an aircraft is described. A computer on the aircraft generates an elevator control signal and a spoiler control signal, using a pilot-controlled pitch control signal and pitch rate, vertical velocity, roll angle, groundspeed, engine pressure ratio and vertical acceleration signals which are generated on the aircraft. The direct lift control by the aircraft spoilers improves the response of the aircraft flight path angle and provides short term flight path stabilization against environmental disturbances
How To Classify 3-Body Forces -- And Why
For systems with only short-range forces and shallow 2-body bound states, the
typical strength of any 3-body force in all partial-waves, including external
currents, is systematically estimated by renormalisation-group arguments in the
Effective Field Theory of Point-Like Interactions. The underlying principle and
some consequences in particular in Nuclear Physics are discussed.Comment: 7 pages LaTeX2e using FBSart-class (provided); 2 figures in 3 .eps

Sintered diamond compacts using metallic cobalt binders
Method is developed for sintering diamond powder which uses metallic cobalt as binder. Present samples show maximum microhardness of over 3000 kg/sq mm on Knoop scale. Material may be used as hard surface coating or may compete with cubic boron nitride as abrasive grain
Multiphoton inner-shell ionization of the carbon atom
We apply time-dependent R-matrix theory to study inner-shell ionization of C
atoms in ultra-short high-frequency light fields with a photon energy between
170 and 245 eV. At an intensity of 10 W/cm, ionization is dominated
by single-photon emission of a electron, with two-photon emission of a
1s electron accounting for about 2-3\% of all emission processes, and
two-photon emission of contributing about 0.5-1\%. Three-photon
emission of a 1s electron is estimated to contribute about 0.01-0.03\%. Around
a photon energy of 225 eV, two-photon emission of a 1s electron, leaving C
in either 1s2s2p or 1s2p is resonantly enhanced by intermediate
1s2s2p states. The results demonstrate the capability of time-dependent
R-matrix theory to describe inner-shell ionization processes including
rearrangement of the outer electrons.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures, 2 table
Angular distributions in two-colour two-photon ionization of He
We present R-Matrix with time dependence (RMT) calculations for the
photoionization of helium irradiated by an EUV laser pulse and an overlapping
IR pulse with an emphasis on the anisotropy parameters of the sidebands
generated by the dressing laser field. We investigate how these parameters
depend on the amount of atomic structure included in the theoretical model for
two-photon ionization. To verify the accuracy of the RMT approach, our
theoretical results are compared with experiment.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, 1 tabl
