Editorial collection (other academic/artistic)abstract
- This proceedings volume presents results obtained by the participants of the 6th Baltic–Nordic workshop 'Algebra, Geometry, and Mathematical Physics (AGMP-6)' held at the Sven Lovén Centre for Marine Sciences in Tjärnö, Sweden on October 25–30, 2010. The Baltic–Nordic Network AGMP 'Algebra, Geometry, and Mathematical Physics' http://www.agmp.eu was created in 2005 on the initiative of two Estonian universities and two Swedish universities: Tallinn University of Technology represented by Eugen Paal (coordinator of the network), Tartu University represented by Viktor Abramov, Lund University represented by Sergei Silvestrov, and Chalmers University of Technology and the University of Gothenburg represented by Alexander Stolin. The goal was to promote international and interdisciplinary cooperation between scientists and research groups in the countries of the Baltic–Nordic region in mathematics and mathematical physics, with special emphasis on the important role played by algebra and geometry in modern physics, engineering and technologies. The main activities of the AGMP network consist of a series of regular annual international workshops, conferences and research schools. The AGMP network also constitutes an important educational forum for scientific exchange and dissimilation of research results for PhD students and Postdocs. The network has expanded since its creation, and nowadays its activities extend beyond countries in the Baltic–Nordic region to universities in other European countries and participants from elsewhere in the world. As one of the important research-dissimilation outcomes of its activities, the network has a tradition of producing high-quality research proceedings volumes after network events, publishing them with various international publishers.

Nano-lasers and nano-LEDs
- 2014
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- One-dimensional nanostructures have been of great interest for photonic devices. In this talk I will give a review of the one-dimensional ZnO nanostructures for ultraviolet and visible regions. I will discuss earlier and last results regarding room temperature and low temperature spontaneous and stimulated emission. For lasers we will discuss both optically and electrically pumped lasers. For the LEDs particularly I will discuss the white light emission from LEDs. Substrates like graphene, paper, textile and semiconductors will be discussed. Finally, also results from other devices based on hybrid materials will be analyzed.

A novel approach for removing the hook effect artefact from Electrical Bioimpedance spectroscopy measurements
- 2010
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Very often in Electrical Bioimpedance (EBI) spectroscopy measurements the presence of stray capacitances creates a measurement artefact commonly known as Hook Effect . Such an artefact creates a hook-alike deviation of the EBI data noticeable when representing the measurement on the impedance plane. Such Hook Effect is noticeable at high frequencies but it also causes a data deviation at lower measurement frequencies. In order to perform any accurate analysis of the EBI spectroscopy data, the influence of the Hook Effect must be removed. An established method to compensate the hook effect is the well known Td compensation , which consists on multiplying the obtained spectrum, Z meas (ω) by a complex exponential in the form of exp[jωTd]. Such a method cannot correct entirely the Hook Effect since the hook-alike deviation occurs a broad frequency range in both magnitude and phase of the measured impedance, and by using a scalar value for Td . First a scalar only modifies the phase of the measured impedance and second, a single value can truly corrects the Hook Effect only at a single frequency. In addition, the process to select a value for the scalar Td by an iterative process with the aim to obtain the best Cole fitting lacks solid scientific grounds. In this work the Td compensation method is revisited and a modified approach for correcting the Hook Effect including a novel method for selecting the correcting values is proposed. The initial validation results confirm that the proposed method entirely corrects the Hook Effect at all frequencies.

Molecular diagnostics using magnetic nanobeads

In: Journal of Physics: Conference Series. - : IOP Publishing. - 1742-6596.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this paper, we investigate the volume-amplified magnetic nanobead detection assay with respect to bead size, bead concentration and bead oligonucleotide surface coverage in order to improve the understanding of the underlying microscopic mechanisms. It has been shown that: (i) the immobilization efficiency of the beads depends on the surface coverage of oligonucleotides, (ii) by using lower amounts of probe-tagged beads, detection sensitivity can be improved and (iii) using small enough beads enables both turn-off and turn-on detection. Finally, biplex detection was demonstrated.

Stochastic motion of a laminar/turbulent interface in a shear flow
- 2011
-
In: Journal of Physics: Conference Series. - : IOP Publishing. - 1742-6596.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Plane Couette flow is a classical prototype of a shear flow where transition toturbulence is subcritical, i.e. happens despite linear stability of the base flow. In this studywe are interested in the spatio-temporal competition between the (active) turbulent phase andthe (absorbing) laminar. Our three-dimensional numerical simulations show that the delimitinginterface, when parallel to the streamwise direction, moves in a stochastic manner which wemodel as a continuous-time random walk. Statistical analysis suggests a Gaussian diffusionprocess and allows us to determine the average speed of this interface as a function of theReynolds number Re, as well as the threshold in Re above which turbulence contaminatesthe whole domain. For the lowest value of Re, this stochastic motion competes with anotherdeterministic regime of growth of the localised perturbations. The latter, a rather unexpectedregime, is shown to be linked to the recently found localised snaking solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. An extension of this thinking to more general orientations of the interfaceswill be proposed.

AD5933-based Spectrometer for Electrical Bioimpedance Applications
- 2010
-
In: Journal of Physics: Conference Series. - : IOP Publishing. - 1742-6596. ; 224:1, s. 012011-
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- o build an Electrical Bioimpedance (EBI) spectrometer using the Impedance Measurement System-On-Chip AD5933 together with a 4-Electrode Analog Front End (4E-AFE) has been proven practicable. Such small measurement devices can make possible several new applications of EBI technology, especially when combined with functional textiles, which can enable wearable applications for personal health and home monitoring. After the implementation and functional validation of the 4E-AFE-enabled spectrometer, the next natural step is to validate for which EBI applications the 4E-AFE-enabled system is suitable. To test the applicability of this novel spectrometer on several EBI applications, 2R1C equivalent models have been experimentally obtained and impedance spectroscopy measurements have been performed with the system under study and with the SFB7 EBI spectrometer manufactured by ImpediMed. The 2R1C circuit parameters have been estimated with the BioImp software from the spectra obtained with both EBI spectrometers and the estimated values have been compared with the original values used in each circuit model implementation. The obtained results indicated that the 4E-AFE-enabled system cannot beat the performance of the SFB7 in accuracy but it performs better in preciseness. In any case the overall performance indicates that the 4E-AFE-enabled system can perform spectroscopy measurements in the frequency range from 5 to 100 kHz.

Advanced Fluid Research On Drag reduction In Turbulence Experiments
- 2011
-
In: Journal of Physics: Conference Series. - : IOP Publishing. - 1742-6596.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A hot topic in today's debate on global warming is drag reduction in aeronautics. The most bene cial concept for drag reduction is to maintain the major portion of the airfoil laminar. Estimations show that the potential drag reduction can be as much as 15%, which would give a signi cant reduction of NOx and CO emissions in the atmosphere considering that the number of aircraft take os, only in the EU, is over 19 million per year. An important element for successful ow control, which can lead to a reduced aerodynamic drag, is enhanced physical understanding of the transition to turbulence process.

Classical probability model for Bell inequality
- 2014
-
In: Journal of Physics: Conference Series. - : Institute of Physics (IOP). - 1742-6596.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We show that by taking into account randomness of realization of experimental contexts it is possible to construct common Kolmogorov space for data collected for these contexts, although they can be incompatible. We call such a construction "Kolmogorovization" of contextuality. This construction of common probability space is applied to Bell's inequality. It is well known that its violation is a consequence of collecting statistical data in a few incompatible experiments. In experiments performed in quantum optics contexts are determined by selections of pairs of angles (θi,θ'j) fixing orientations of polarization beam splitters. Opposite to the common opinion, we show that statistical data corresponding to measurements of polarizations of photons in the singlet state, e.g., in the form of correlations, can be described in the classical probabilistic framework. The crucial point is that in constructing the common probability space one has to take into account not only randomness of the source (as Bell did), but also randomness of context-realizations (in particular, realizations of pairs of angles (θi, θ'j)). One may (but need not) say that randomness of "free will" has to be accounted for.

Formation of the energetic doubly charged ne ion by irradiation of large neon clusters using intense EUV-FEL pulses at 52 nm
- 2010
-
In: Journal of Physics: Conference Series. - : Institute of Physics (IOP). - 1742-6596.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The interaction of clusters with intense EUV-FEL pulses was investigated using the SPring-8 Compact SASE Source (SCSS) test facility in Japan. Neon clusters of mean sizes = 1000 and 4000 were irradiated by intense FEL pulses at 52 nm and emitted ions were detected by a momentum imaging spectrometer. The production of energetic doubly charged ions was not found for Ne 1000, but it was observed for Ne 4000 clusters, which suggests that an inhomogeneous charge distribution is generated for the larger clusters.
