Fluctuation initiation of Stokes signal and its effect on stimulated Brillouin scattering pulse compression
Optics Express
|August 10, 2017
Abstract:
In this paper, a theoretical model is developed to demonstrate that fluctuations in the Stokes signal and occurrence position contribute to the final compression ratio in stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS). This theoretical analysis can be applied to the investigation of the temporal characteristics of SBS pulse compression. This model agrees well with the experimental results in a two-stage SBS compressor.

NMR Spectrometers: Radiofrequency Pulses and Pulse Sequences
1.9K
A pulse is a short burst of radio waves distributed over a range of frequencies that simultaneously excites all the nuclei in the sample. Upon passing a radio frequency pulse along the x-axis, the nuclei absorb energy corresponding to their Larmor frequencies and achieve resonance. This shifts the net magnetization vector from the z-axis toward the transverse plane. This angle of rotation of the magnetization vector, or the flip angle, is proportional to the duration and intensity of the pulse.

Muscle Stimulation Frequency
4.8K
The contraction strength of muscles is regulated by motor neurons, which modulate the frequency of action potentials dispatched to the motor units based on the body's requirements. This process of varying the muscle stimulation frequency allows muscles to contract with a force that is precisely tailored to the needs of the moment, whether lifting a feather or a heavy box.
