Cavity-length optimization for high energy pulse generation in a long cavity passively mode-locked all-fiber ring laser by Shum, Perry Ping, Wu, Kan, Wong, Jia Haur, Aditya, Sheel, Li, Nanxi, Xue, Jin, Ouyang, Chunmei

“…In order to achieve higher pulse energy in a passively mode-locked fiber ring laser, a long cavity length is commonly implemented. However, a long cavity operating in the anomalous dispersion regime also leads to pulse broadening, which reduces the average pulse power. …”

A Framework for Robust Long-Term Voltage Stability of Distribution Systems by Nguyen, Hung D., Dvijotham, Krishnamurthy, Yu, Suhyoun, Turitsyn, Konstantin

“…IEEE Power injection uncertainties in distribution power grids, which are mostly induced by aggressive introduction of intermittent renewable sources, may drive the system away from normal operating regimes and potentially lead to the loss of long-term voltage stability (LTVS). Naturally, there is an ever increasing need for a tool for assessing the LTVS of a distribution system. …”

Experimental observation of optical Weyl points and Fermi arc-like surface states by Chong, Yi Dong, Chen, Kevin P., Rechtsman, Mikael C., Noh, Jiho, Huang, Sheng, Leykam, Daniel

“…We use a 3D structure consisting of laser-written waveguides, and show the presence of type-II Weyl points by observing conical diffraction along one axis when the frequency is tuned to the Weyl point; and observing the associated Fermi arc-like surface states. The realization of Weyl points at optical frequencies allows these novel electromagnetic modes to be further explored in the context of linear, nonlinear, and quantum optics.…”

Heterogeneity within colorectal cancer cell lines and epigenetic regulation of CD24 by Ibn Ayub, M

“…This thesis investigated the role of methylation in dynamic regulation of CD24 based heterogeneity in colorectal cancer cell lines. First, E-Cadherin variation between the cell lines LS174T and LS180 was investigated to find out whether E-Cadherin had any causal role in the difference in lumen formation between these two cell lines derived from the same tumour. …”
