13. Acoustic standing wave suppression using randomized phase-shift-keying excitations
Recent papers have demonstrated that acoustic standing waves can be inhibited by frequency-modulated spread-spectrum excitation. An alternative method is studied here that is designed to be more practical for implementation in phased arrays. The method operates using phase-shift-keying (PSK), which introduces phase shifts into the driving signal to break wav

14. Zero-shift tuning in geonium by variation of trapped charge.
Measuring the g factor, or gyromagnetic ratio of an individual electron or positron permanently confined in ultrahigh vacuum at liquid helium temperature, provides one of the few avenues for testing the currently accepted standard model that views these elementary particles, on the same level as the quarks, as point-like objects without internal structure. O

15. Invariance of brain-wave representations of simple visual images and their names
In two experiments, electric brain waves of 14 subjects were recorded under several different conditions to study the invariance of brain-wave representations of simple patches of colors and simple visual shapes and their names, the words blue, circle, etc. As in our earlier work, the analysis consisted of averaging over trials to create prototypes and test

16. Nanoscale imaging of chemical interactions: Fluorine on graphite
Using C60-functionalized scanning tunneling microscope tips, we have investigated the adsorption of fluorine on graphite. Based on characteristics of the accompanying electron standing waves, we are able to distinguish the fluorine adatoms that have bonded ionically to the graphite surface from those that have formed covalent bonds with the surface. This res

17. Practical zero-shift tuning in geonium.
Compositeness of the electron may show up in a very small deviation of the measured electron g factor from one calculated for a point electron by quantum electrodynamics. The precision of our g measurements is currently limited by an interaction of the cyclotron motion with standing waves in the trap cavity containing the electron. The important element intr

18. Microengineered hydromechanical cochlear model
Micromachined fluid-filled variable impedance waveguides intended to mimic the mechanics of the passive mammalian cochlea have been fabricated and experimentally examined. The structures were microfabricated with dimensions similar to those of the biological system. Experimental tests demonstrate acoustically excited traveling fluid-structure waves with phas

19. Electrocardiographic changes resembling myocardial ischaemia in asymptomatic men with normal coronary arteriograms.
T wave and ST segment abnormalities in 20 asymptomatic men aged 18 to 55 were investigated because they were identical with myocardial ischaemic changes, and the professional livelihood of the subjects was jeopardised. Coronary arteriograms showed unobstructed arteries in all except one in whom a 50 per cent lesion of the left anterior descending artery was

20. Different event-related patterns of gamma-band power in brain waves of fast- and slow-reacting subjects.
Fast- and slow-reacting subjects exhibit different patterns of gamma-band electroencephalogram (EEG) activity when responding as quickly as possible to auditory stimuli. This result appears to confirm long-standing speculations of Wundt that fast- and slow-reacting subjects produce speeded reactions in different ways and demonstrates that analysis of event-r
