Modes of propagation of electromagnetic pulses in open circular waveguides are investigated systematically. Core and cladding both consist of simple (linear, homogeneous, isotropic), dispersive materials modeled by temporal convolution with physically sound susceptibility kernels. Under these circumstances, pulses cannot propagate along the guide unless the sum of the (first) initial derivatives of
An energy curable composition comprises a photoinitiator and a polymerisable compound of formula (I): where: R<1> represents a C1 - C4 alkyl group, an aryl group or an aralkyl group; R<2> represents a group of formula -O-R<3> or a group R<4>; R<3> represents a C1 - C20 alkyl group, a C2 - C20 alkenyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, a polyalkylene oxide group or a poly(lactone group); R<4>
The article discusses the nationalist right-wing memory discourses in contemporary East Central and Southeastern Europe. It points out their main features such as: nationalization, re-nationalization, securitization, victimization, and weaponization of the Communist and post-Communist past. The focus is to explain the historical and cultural roots of these memory discourses, which are of vital imp
We investigate the next-to-leading-colour (NLC) contributions to the colour matrix in the fundamental and the colour-flow decompositions for tree-level processes with all gluons, one quark pair and two quark pairs. By analytical examination of the colour factors, we find the non-zero elements in the colour matrix at NLC. At this colour order, together with the symmetry of the phase-space, it is re
International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics at Lund University has been running MSc in Environmental Management and Policy (EMP) programme, an interdisciplinary, international masters programme for sustainability for the last 27 years. The programme, while keeping its applied and practical nature and dual column of business and policy, has been evolving over time and has produce
Despite having been included in critical editions since NA 27, an edition with the full text of Sinai Greek NF MG/ΜΓ 99 (GA 0289) has not been published until now. The Greek undertext of the palimpsest, written in biblical majuscule, was provisionally dated in the Kurzgefaßte Liste to VII/VIII (600–799 CE) but has now been redated by Guglielmo Cavallo to the fifth century. The present edition, bas
HyperSurfaces (HSFs) consist of structurally reconfigurable metasurfaces whose electromagnetic properties can be changed via a software interface, using an embedded miniaturized network of controllers. With the HSF controllers, interconnected in an irregular, near-Manhattan geometry, we propose a robust, deterministic Fault-Tolerant (FT), deadlockand livelock-free routing protocol where faults are
We consider the Gibbs measure on the configurations of N particles on R+ with one fixed particle at one end at 0. The potential includes pair-wise Coulomb interactions between any particle and its 2K neighbors. Only when K = 1, the model is within the rank-one operators, and it was treated previously. Here, for the case K ≥ 2, exponentially fast convergence of density distribution for the spacings
A decoupled rotational band with an average dynamical moment of inertia [Formula Presented] [Formula Presented]/MeV has been observed to high spin in [Formula Presented] [Formula Presented]. The measured quadrupole moment of [Formula Presented] eb is as large as that of the superdeformed band in [Formula Presented]. The large deformation and decoupled character of the band suggests that the odd ne
Bottom trawling is associated with negative external effects such as seafloor pressure and high fuel use. Replacing bottom trawls with passive gear, such as creels, is therefore interesting for policymakers. We investigate the response of the Norway lobster fishery in Sweden to an expanded creel area. Using an economic model (FishRent), we analyse fleet structure, net present value and two environ
