Frequency correction device uses digital circuitry

Signal acquisition and tracking system covering a wide range of frequencies uses a digital circuit to sample the frequency of an incoming signal and provide correction pulses to the voltage-controlled oscillator. The circuit can also sense the presence of a signal on any one of the input lines

TIDAL AND TIDAL-RESONANT EFFECTS IN COALESCING BINARIES

Tidal and tidal-resonant effects in coalescing compact binary systems are investigated by direct numerical integration of the equations of motion. For the stars polytropic models are used. The tidal effects are found to be dominated by the (non-resonant) $f$-modes. The effect of the $g$-mode-tidal resonances is obtained. The tidal interaction is shown to be of interest especially for low-mass binaries. There exists a characteristic final plunge orbit beyond which the system cannot remain stable even if radiation reaction is not taken into account; in agreement with results obtained by Lai et al. \shortcite{Lai93}. The importance of the investigated effects for the observation of gravitational waves on Earth is discussed.Comment: 17 pages, latex (mn.sty), 5 figures, M.N.R.A.S. in pres

Irradiation of MOS-FET devices to provide desired logic functions

Gamma, X-ray, electron, or other radiation is used to shift threshold potentials of MOS devices on logic circuits. Before irradiation MOS gates to be shifted are biased positive and other gates are grounded to substrate. Threshold lasts 10 years. Thermal annealing brings circuit back to original configuration

Simple circuit performs binary addition and subtraction

Ripple adder reduces the number of logic circuits required to preform binary addition and subtraction. The adder uses dual input and delayed output flip-flops in one register. The contents of this register are summed with those of a standard register through conventional AND/gates
