The MRI or CT scan images are primary follow up diagnostic tools when a neurologic exam indicates a possibility of a primary or metastatic brain tumor existence. The tumor tissue mainly appears in brighter colors than the rest of the regions in the brain. Based on this observation, an automated algorithm for brain tumor detection and medical doctors' assistance in facilitated and accelerated diagnosis...
In this paper, we review several characteristics of optical lattice clocks as candidates for a future redefinition of the International System of Units (SI) second using an atomic transition in the optical domain, focusing on experiments performed at SYRTE using one mercury (Hg) and two strontium (Sr) optical lattice clocks. Beyond the technical aspects such as the stability and systematic frequency-shift...
We will report on the development of optical lattice clocks at LNE-SYRTE. Two strontium and a mercury optical lattice clocks were developed over more than a decade. We will give and overview of this work, emphasizing several unique features of the clocks. We will also describe application of these clocks to fundamental physics tests and as well as work relevant to a possible redefinition of the SI...
The lack of real-time tools capable of detecting risk of blackouts is one of the contribution factors to the recent large blackouts occurred around the world. In terms of dynamic security assessment (DSA), artificial intelligence and data mining techniques have been widely applied to facilitate very fast DSA for enhanced situational awareness of insecurity. However, many of the current state-of-the-art...
A circuit for on-chip measurement of long-term jitter, period jitter, and clock skew, is demonstrated. The circuit uses a single latch and a voltage-controlled delay element, and is evaluated in a stand-alone pad frame. Excellent reproduction of jitter measured by oscilloscope is shown. Measured jitter resolution is 1 ps or better. The circuit is also incorporated into a 2 GHz clock distribution network...
