All MOS low-power low-voltage LDO with an embedded voltage reference by Chor, Chee Yong

“…Precise sub-threshold design allows the circuit to operate at room temperature with supply voltage down to 0.85 V and current consumption of 7 uA. Measurements performed over a number of 500 samples using Monte Carlo simulations showed an average TC of 24.35 ppm/degree C with 3-sigma of 29.26 ppm/degree C over the temperature range from 0 degree C to 85 degree C. …”

Improved constraints on parton distributions using LHCb, ALICE and HERA heavy-flavour measurements and implications for the predictions for prompt atmospheric-neutrino fluxes by Zenaiev, O, Garzelli, MV, Lipka, K, Moch, S, Cooper-Sarkar, A, Olness, F, Geiser, A, Sigl, G

“…These data impose additional constraints on the gluon and the sea-quark distributions at low partonic fractions x of the proton momentum, down to x ≈ 10−6. The impact of the resulting parton distribution function in the predictions for the prompt atmospheric-neutrino fluxes is studied.…”

An assessment of India’s energy landscape: 2008–13 by Deb, K

“…For a while it did appear that this promise would be realized, before India hit another roadblock in its growth story and GDP growth slowed down around 2011.…”

Laser-written scalable sapphire integrated photonics platform by Wang, M, Salter, PS, Payne, FP, Liu, T, Booth, MJ, Fells, JAJ

“…The devices are up to 10 cm long and written at depths down to 800 µm. The propagation losses for single-mode guiding are ∼ 0.6 dB/cm at 780 nm and ∼ 0.7 dB/cm at 1550 nm. …”

Decolonising the Viking Story in the North Atlantic by Griffiths, DW

“…New insights from recent scientific and humanistic research have helped to break down the dominance of culture-history and a reinvigorated subject has emerged.…”

Global Bifurcations Organizing Weak Chimeras in Three Symmetrically Coupled Kuramoto Oscillators with Inertia by Ashwin, P, Bick, C

“…Hence, it is interesting to understand precisely how frequency synchrony is lost and how invariant sets such as attracting weak chimeras are generated at torus breakup, where the phase description breaks down. Maistrenko et al (2016) found numerical evidence of an organizing center for weak chimeras in a system of N=3 coupled identical Kuramoto oscillators with inertia. …”

ST Microelectronics – partnering for profit by Tang, Hung Kei, Gleave, Tom

“…In the face of these pressures, ST Micro-electronics (formerly SGS-Thomson) had shifted its product mix towards higher value-added items. This in turn, was beginning to affect the company's relationship with its distributors. …”
