Design of a Broadband Amplifier for High Speed Applications
This paper provides comprehensive insight into the design approach followed for an amplifier dedicated to high speed base band signals. To demonstrate the methodology, an amplifier consisting of nine PHEMT cascode cells within a distributed amplifier topology was designed. The resulting frequency response is 40 GHz at the 3-dB point, and the output voltage for a 43 Gbps eye diagram is 7.3 Vpp at the chip terminal
Jet-fluid string formation and decay in high-energy heavy-ion collisions
We propose a new hadronization mechanism, jet-fluid string (JFS) formation
and decay, to understand observables in intermediate to high- regions
comprehensively. In the JFS model, hard partons produced in jet lose their
energy in traversing the QGP fluid, which is described by fully
three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations. When a jet parton escapes from the
QGP fluid, it picks up a partner parton from a fluid and forms a color singlet
string, then it decays to hadrons. We find that high- values in JFS
are about two times larger than in the independent fragmentation model.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures; Proceeding for poster sessions at Quark Matter

Search for a Ridge Structure Origin with Shower Broadening and Jet Quenching
We investigate the role of jet and shower parton broadening by the strong
colour field in the - correlation of high
particles. When anisotropic momentum broadening () is
given to jet and shower partons in the initial stage, a ridge-like structure is
found to appear in the two hadron correlation. The ratio of the peak to the
pedestal yield is overestimated.Comment: Talk given at 20th Int. Conf. on Ultra-Relativistic Nucleus-Nucleus

Physical modelling of lime stabilisation in soft soils around deep excavations
Bored concrete piles have been used widely on commercial developments in London for about the last 50 years. The life of a commercial building is between 25 – 30 years and, as each building is demolished and rebuilt, the piles from the previous buildings remain in the ground causing obstruct ions to the new foundations. This paper describes a preliminary study to explore the viability of sheet piled foundations as a genuine alternative to cast in situ concrete piles and all of the complications inherent in their construction and the obstruction they create to subsequent foundations. If it is possible to u se steel piles as foundations they can be easily removed, recycled and will not cause obstructions for future developments. However, individual sheet piles have relatively low capacity when axially loaded and it is therefore necessary to consider a sheet p ile grou p in conjunction with a pilecap, which can be considered a hybrid foundation; a combination of shallow (pilecap) and deep (sheet pile). A short series of centrifuge tests is reported in which model sheet pile groups in over - consolidated clay were l oaded axially whilst vertical displacements were measured. Equivalent cast in place piles were similarly tested alongside the sheet pile groups by way of comparison
Thermoacoustic effects in supercritical fluids near the critical point: Resonance, piston effect, and acoustic emission and reflection
We present a general theory of thermoacoustic phenomena in supercritical
fluids near the critical point in a one-dimensional cell. We take into account
the effects of the heat conduction in the boundary walls and the bulk viscosity
near the critical point. We introduce a coefficient characterizing
reflection of sound with frequency at the boundary. As applications,
we examine the acoustic eigenmodes in the cell, the response to time-dependent
perturbations, sound emission and reflection at the boundary. Resonance and
rapid adiabatic changes are noteworthy. In these processes, the role of the
thermal diffusion layers is enhanced near the critical point because of the
strong critical divergence of the thermal expansion.Comment: 15 pages, 7 figure
A Mathematical Study of the One-Dimensional Keller and Rubinov Model for Liesegang Bands
Our purpose is to start understanding from a mathematical viewpoint experiments in which regularized structures with spatially distinct bands or rings of precipitated material are exhibited, with clearly visible scaling properties. Such patterns are known as Liesegang bands or rings. In this paper, we study a one-dimensional version of the Keller and Rubinow model and present conditions ensuring the existence of Liesegang bands
Complex Scaled Spectrum Completeness for Coupled Channels
The Complex Scaling Method (CSM) provides scattering wave functions which
regularize resonances and suggest a resolution of the identity in terms of such
resonances, completed by the bound states and a smoothed continuum. But, in the
case of inelastic scattering with many channels, the existence of such a
resolution under complex scaling is still debated. Taking advantage of results
obtained earlier for the two channel case, this paper proposes a representation
in which the convergence of a resolution of the identity can be more easily
tested. The representation is valid for any finite number of coupled channels
for inelastic scattering without rearrangement.Comment: Latex file, 13 pages, 4 eps-figure

Scaling and Universality in the Counterion-Condensation Transition at Charged Cylinders
We address the critical and universal aspects of counterion-condensation
transition at a single charged cylinder in both two and three spatial
dimensions using numerical and analytical methods. By introducing a novel
Monte-Carlo sampling method in logarithmic radial scale, we are able to
numerically simulate the critical limit of infinite system size (corresponding
to infinite-dilution limit) within tractable equilibration times. The critical
exponents are determined for the inverse moments of the counterionic density
profile (which play the role of the order parameters and represent the inverse
localization length of counterions) both within mean-field theory and within
Monte-Carlo simulations. In three dimensions (3D), correlation effects
(neglected within mean-field theory) lead to an excessive accumulation of
counterions near the charged cylinder below the critical temperature
(condensation phase), while surprisingly, the critical region exhibits
universal critical exponents in accord with the mean-field theory. In two
dimensions (2D), we demonstrate, using both numerical and analytical
approaches, that the mean-field theory becomes exact at all temperatures
(Manning parameters), when number of counterions tends to infinity. For finite
particle number, however, the 2D problem displays a series of peculiar singular
points (with diverging heat capacity), which reflect successive de-localization
events of individual counterions from the central cylinder. In both 2D and 3D,
the heat capacity shows a universal jump at the critical point, and the energy
develops a pronounced peak. The asymptotic behavior of the energy peak location
is used to locate the critical temperature, which is also found to be universal
and in accordance with the mean-field prediction.Comment: 31 pages, 16 figure
