Passive Tracking System and Method
System and methods are disclosed for passively determining the location of a moveable transmitter utilizing a pair of phase shifts at a receiver for extracting a direction vector from a receiver to the transmitter. In a preferred embodiment, a phase difference between the transmitter and receiver is extracted utilizing a noncoherent demodulator in the receiver. The receiver includes antenna array with three antenna elements, which preferably are patch antenna elements placed apart by one-half wavelength. Three receiver channels are preferably utilized for simultaneously processing the received signal from each of the three antenna elements. Multipath transmission paths for each of the three receiver channels are indexed so that comparisons of the same multipath component are made for each of the three receiver channels. The phase difference for each received signal is determined by comparing only the magnitudes of received and stored modulation signals to determine a winning modulation symbol
Charge order at the frontier between the molecular and solid states in Ba3NaRu2O9
We show that the valence electrons of Ba3NaRu2O9, which has a quasi-molecular
structure, completely crystallize below 210 K. Using an extended Hubbard model,
we show that the charge ordering instability results from long-range Coulomb
interactions. However, orbital ordering, metal-metal bonding and formation of a
partial spin gap enforce the magnitude of the charge separation. The striped
charge order and frustrated hcp lattice of Ru2O9 dimers lead to competition
with a quasi-degenerate charge-melted phase under photo-excitation at low
temperature. Our results establish a broad class of simple metal oxides as
models for emergent phenomena at the border between the molecular and solid
states.Comment: Minor changes, with supporting information. To appear in Phys. Rev.

A Component-Based Extension Framework for Large-Scale Parallel Simulations in NEURON
As neuronal simulations approach larger scales with increasing levels of detail, the neurosimulator software represents only a part of a chain of tools ranging from setup, simulation, interaction with virtual environments to analysis and visualizations. Previously published approaches to abstracting simulator engines have not received wide-spread acceptance, which in part may be to the fact that they tried to address the challenge of solving the model specification problem. Here, we present an approach that uses a neurosimulator, in this case NEURON, to describe and instantiate the network model in the simulator's native model language but then replaces the main integration loop with its own. Existing parallel network models are easily adopted to run in the presented framework. The presented approach is thus an extension to NEURON but uses a component-based architecture to allow for replaceable spike exchange components and pluggable components for monitoring, analysis, or control that can run in this framework alongside with the simulation
