Studi Kerapatan dan Perubahan Tutupan Mangrove Menggunakan Citra Satelit di Pulau Sebatik Kalimantan Utara

Hutan mangrove merupakan ekosistem yang rentan sehingga membutuhkan pemantauan terus menerus untuk mendeteksi berbagai ancaman seperti aktivitas manusia dan bencana alam. Penginderaan jarak jauh dan sistem informasi geografis (SIG) sangat efektif untuk digunakan dalam pemantauan ekosistem mangrove karena dapat menjangkau daerah yang luas dan dapat dilakukan sekala berkala. Penerapan teknologi penginderaan jarak jauh untuk memantau ekosistem mangrove di Pulau Sebatik belum pernah dilakukan sebelumnya. Penelitian ini penting untuk mengetahui Perubahan kondisi hutan mangrove di Pulau Sebatik. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menghitung akurasi klasifikasi tutupan lahan dengan resolusi spasial yang berbeda, mengukur Perubahan mangrove dari tahun 2005 sampai 2016, dan menganalisis korelasi antara nilai Normalized Different Vegetation Index (NDVI) dan persentase tutupannya. Klasifikasi tutupan lahan dalam penelitian ini menggunakan klasifikasi terbimbing dengan algoritma Maximum Likelihood. NDVI digunakan sebagai indikator kerapatan mangrove. Pengukuran data lapangan diambil untuk menghitung tutupan kanopi. Penilaian akurasi klasifikasi citra Landsat sekitar 83% dan citra SPOT 6 sekitar 90%. Mangrove di Pulau Sebatik mengalami peningkatan dari tahun 2005 sampai 2016 sebesar 31,27%. Korelasi antara tutupan NDVI dan kanopi dikategorikan tinggi dengan koefisien korelasi r = 0,82 (Landsat 8) dan 0,85 (SPOT 6)

Systematic trends in beta-delayed particle emitting nuclei: The case of beta-p-alpha emission from 21Mg

We have observed beta+-delayed alpha and p-alpha emission from the proton-rich nucleus 21Mg produced at the ISOLDE facility at CERN. The assignments were cross-checked with a time distribution analysis. This is the third identified case of beta-p-alpha emission. We discuss the systematic of beta-delayed particle emission decays, show that our observed decays fit naturally into the existing pattern, and argue that the patterns are to a large extent caused by odd-even effects.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure

Entanglement of distant optomechanical systems

We theoretically investigate the possibility to generate non-classical states of optical and mechanical modes of optical cavities, distant from each other. A setup comprised of two identical cavities, each with one fixed and one movable mirror and coupled by an optical fiber, is studied in detail. We show that with such a setup there is potential to generate entanglement between the distant cavities, involving both optical and mechanical modes. The scheme is robust with respect to dissipation, and nonlocal correlations are found to exist in the steady state at finite temperatures.Comment: 12 pages (published with minor modifications

Giant lasing effect in magnetic nanoconductors

We propose a new principle for a compact solid-state laser in the 1-100 THz regime. This is a frequency range where attempts to fabricate small size lasers up till now have met severe technical problems. The proposed laser is based on a new mechanism for creating spin-flip processes in ferromagnetic conductors. The mechanism is due to the interaction of light with conduction electrons; the interaction strength, being proportional to the large exchange energy, exceeds the Zeeman interaction by orders of magnitude. On the basis of this interaction, a giant lasing effect is predicted in a system where a population inversion has been created by tunneling injection of spin-polarized electrons from one ferromagnetic conductor to another -- the magnetization of the two ferromagnets having different orientations. Using experimental data for ferromagnetic manganese perovskites with nearly 100% spin polarization we show the laser frequency to be in the range 1-100 THz. The optical gain is estimated to be of order 10^7 cm^{-1}, which exceeds the gain of conventional semiconductor lasers by 3 or 4 orders of magnitude. A relevant experimental study is proposed and discussed.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

The ALTO project at IPN Orsay

In order to probe neutron rich radioactive noble gases produced by photo-fission, a PARRNe1 experiment (Production d'Atomes Radioactifs Riches en Neutrons) has been carried out at CERN. The incident electron beam of 50 MeV was delivered by the LIL machine: LEP Injector Linac. The experiment allowed to compare under the same conditions two production methods of radioactive noble gases: fission induced by fast neutrons and photo-fission. The obtained results show that the use of the electrons is a promising mode to get intense neutron rich ion beams. Thereafter, the success of this photo-fission experiment, a conceptual design for the installation at IPN Orsay of a 50 MeV electron accelerator close to the PARRNe-2 device has been worked out: ALTO Project. This work has started within a collaboration between IPNO, LAL and CERN groups.Comment: 14 pages, pdf file, International School-Seminar on Heavy-Ion Physics 7 (2002

Influence of Long-Range Coulomb Interactions on the Metal-Insulator Transition in One-Dimensional Strongly Correlated Electron Systems

The influence of long-range Coulomb interactions on the properties of one-dimensional (1D) strongly correlated electron systems in vicinity of the metal-insulator phase transition is considered. It is shown that unscreened repulsive Coulomb forces lead to the formation of a 1D Wigner crystal in the metallic phase and to the transformation of the square-root singularity of the compressibility (characterizing the commensurate-incommensurate transition) to a logarithmic singularity. The properties of the insulating (Mott) phase depend on the character of the short-wavelength screening of the Coulomb forces. For a sufficiently short screening length the characteristics of the charge excitations in the insulating phase are totally determined by the Coulomb interaction and these quasipartic les can be described as quasiclassical Coulomb solitons.Comment: 14 pages, LaTeX, G{\"o}teborg preprint APR 94-3

The Effects of Resonant Tunneling on Magnetoresistance through a Q uantum Dot

The effect of resonant tunneling on magnetoresistance (MR) is studied theoretically in a double junction system. We have found that the ratio of the MR of the resonant peak current is reduced more than that of the single junction, whereas that of the valley current is enhanced depending on the change of the discrete energy-level under the change of magnetic field. We also found that the peak current-valley current (PV) ratio decreases when the junction conductance increases.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figures(mail if you need), use revtex.st

Theory of Thermoelectric Power in High-Tc Superconductors

We present a microscopic theory for the thermoelectric power (TEP) in high-Tc cuprates. Based on the general expression for the TEP, we perform the calculation of the TEP for a square lattice Hubbard model including all the vertex corrections necessary to satisfy the conservation laws. In the present study, characteristic anomalous temperature and doping dependences of the TEP in high-Tc cuprates, which have been a long-standing problem of high-Tc cuprates, are well reproduced for both hole- and electron-doped systems, except for the heavily under-doped case. According to the present analysis, the strong momentum and energy dependences of the self-energy due to the strong antiferromagnetic fluctuations play an essential role in reproducing experimental anomalies of the TEP.Comment: 5 pages, 8 figures, to appear in J.
