Time-Domain Integration of Broadband Terahertz Pulses via Tapered Two-Wire Waveguide

Alessandro Tomasino

In this work, we report on the implementation of a time-domain integrator device operating on arbitrary broadband Terahertz (THz) pulses. This analog signal-processing functionality is implemented by employing a two-wire waveguide (TWWG) variant, based on ...

Optical rotating torque sensor with nano newton-meter resolution based on a hanging torsion wire

Simon Nessim Henein, Etienne Frédéric Gabriel Thalmann, Billy Nussbaumer

This article presents a novel torque measuring setup working in the nano newton-meter range. The central novelty is a long (1 meter range) thin (diameter of a few tens of micrometers) metallic wire used instead of the relatively stiff torsion zone of the s ...

Lorentz Force from a Current-Carrying Wire on a Charge in Motion under the Assumption of Neutrality in the Symmetrical Frame of Reference

Marcos Rubinstein, Antonio Sunjerga

It is commonly assumed that a wire conducting an electric current is neutral in the laboratory frame of reference (the rest frame of the lattice of positive ions). Some authors consider that the wire is neutral only in a symmetrical frame of reference, in ...

Results and analysis of the hot-spot temperature experiment for a cable-in-conduit conductor with thick conduit

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák

In the design of future DEMO fusion reactor a long time constant (similar to 23 s) is required for an emergency current dump in the toroidal field (TF) coils, e.g. in case of a quench detection. This requirement is driven mainly by imposing a limit on forc ...
