Time Series-based Bifurcation
Analysis
by E. Bagarinao
Studies in nonlinear time series
analysis have provided reliable
techniques for the evaluation of signals from dynamical systems. Some
of these techniques are used to gain insights into the unknown
physical processes, to do prediction, as well as to determine
invariants associated to the dynamics of the system. more...
 
Study of Thin Films Growth by
Pulsed Laser Deposition
by K. Develos
Conceptually and experimentally, pulsed laser
ablation is an
extremely simple technique, probably the simplest among all thin film
growth techniques. It consists of a target holder and a substrate
holder housed in a vacuum chamber. A high-power laser is used as an
external energy source to vaporize materials and to deposit thin
films. more...
 
Behind the Scenes
by K. Develos
A long, long time ago, in a place called UP:
I looked over my solution to the problem set our
professor in
electromagnetics gave us. The equation has an unwanted factor of
three. It shouldn�t be there. There was something wrong. I asked
my classmate about it, and she couldn�t find the glitch in the
derivation either. �Go ask Baggy,� she said. more...
 
Staying Together, Apart
by K. Develos
Long distance relationships don�t, can�t, and won�t
work. Love needs to be nurtured in closeness. Even fundamental
physical laws tell us that the force of attraction between two bodies
decreases as the square of the distance between them. It�s the same
thing with people.� more...
