  Abstract = In this paper we introduce the concept of Lateral Trigger Probability
     (LTP) function, i.e., the probability for an Extensive Air Shower (EAS)
     to trigger an individual detector of a ground based array as a function
     of distance to the shower axis, taking into account energy, mass and
     direction of the primary cosmic ray. We apply this concept to the
     surface array of the Pierre Auger Observatory consisting of a 1.5 km
     spaced grid of about 1600 water Cherenkov stations. Using Monte Carlo
     simulations of ultra-high energy showers the LTP functions are derived
     for energies in the range between 10(17) and 10(19) eV and zenith angles
     up to 65 degrees. A parametrization combining a step function with an
     exponential is found to reproduce them very well in the considered range
     of energies and zenith angles. The LTP functions can also be obtained
     from data,

  Abstract = The Pierre Auger Collaboration has reported. evidence for anisotropy in
     the distribution of arrival directions of the cosmic rays with energies
     E > E(th) = 5.5 x 10(19) eV. These show a correlation with the
     distribution of nearby extragalactic objects, including an apparent
     excess around the direction of Centaurus A. If the particles responsible
     for these excesses at E > E(th) are heavy nuclei with charge Z, the
     proton component of the sources should lead to excesses in the same
     regions at energies E/Z. We here report the lack of anisotropies in
     these directions at energies above E(th)/Z (for illustrative values of Z
     = 6, 13, 26). If the anisotropies above E(th) are due to nuclei with
     charge Z, and under reasonable assumptions about the acceleration
     process, these observations imply stringent constraints on the allowed
     proton fraction at the lower energies.,

  Abstract = The advent of the Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) necessitates the
     development of a powerful framework for the analysis of radio
     measurements of cosmic ray air showers. As AERA performs
     ``radio-hybrid'' measurements of air shower radio emission in
     coincidence with the surface particle detectors and fluorescence
     telescopes of the Pierre Auger Observatory, the radio analysis
     functionality had to be incorporated in the existing hybrid analysis
     solutions for fluorescence and surface detector data. This goal has been
     achieved in a natural way by extending the existing Auger Offline
     software framework with radio functionality. In this article, we lay out
     the design, highlights and features of the radio extension implemented
     in the Auger Offline framework. Its functionality has achieved a high
     degree of sophistication and offers advanced features such as vectorial
     reconstruction of the electric field, advanced signal processing
     algorithms, a transparent and efficient handling of FFTs, a very
     detailed simulation of detector effects, and the read-in of multiple
     data formats including data from various radio simulation codes. The
     source code of this radio functionality can be made available to
     interested parties on request. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights

  Abstract = We have performed a measurement of the absolute yield of fluorescence
     photons at the Fermi lab Test Beam. A systematic uncertainty at 5\%
     level was achieved by the use of Cherenkov radiation as a reference
     calibration light source. A cross-check was performed by an independent
     calibration using a laser light source. A significant improvement on the
     energy scale uncertainty of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays is expected.,

  Abstract = We present the results of searches for dipolar-type anisotropies in
     different energy ranges above 2.5 x 10(17) eV with the surface detector
     array of the Pierre Auger Observatory, reporting on both the phase and
     the amplitude measurements of the first harmonic modulation in the
     right-ascension distribution. Upper limits on the amplitudes are
     obtained, which provide the most stringent bounds at present, being
     below 2\% at 99\% C.L. for EeV energies. We also compare our results to
     those of previous experiments as well as with some theoretical
     expectations. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.,

  Abstract = Diffuse and specular characteristics of the Tyvek 1025-BL material are
     reported with respect to their implementation in the Geant4 Monte Carlo
     simulation toolkit. This toolkit incorporates the UNIFIED model.
     Coefficients defined by the UNIFIED model were calculated from the
     bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) profiles measured
     with a scatterometer for several angles of incidence. Results were
     amended with profile measurements made by a profilometer. (C) 2011

  Abstract = Since data-taking began in January 2004, the Pierre Auger Observatory
     has been recording the count rates of low energy secondary cosmic ray
     particles for the self-calibration of the ground detectors of its
     surface detector array. After correcting for atmospheric effects,
     modulations of galactic cosmic rays due to solar activity and transient
     events are observed. Temporal variations related with the activity of
     the heliosphere can be determined with high accuracy due to the high
     total count rates. In this study, the available data are presented
     together with an analysis focused on the observation of Forbush
     decreases, where a strong correlation with neutron monitor data is
     found.,

  Abstract = The Pierre Auger Observatory is a detector for ultra-high energy cosmic
     rays. It consists of a surface array to measure secondary particles at
     ground level and a fluorescence detector to measure the development of
     air showers in the atmosphere above the array. The ``hybrid''
     detection mode combines the information from the two subsystems. We
     describe the determination of the hybrid exposure for events observed by
     the fluorescence telescopes in coincidence with at least one
     water-Cherenkov detector of the surface array. A detailed knowledge of
     the time dependence of the detection operations is crucial for an
     accurate evaluation of the exposure. We discuss the relevance of
     monitoring data collected during operations, such as the status of the
     fluorescence detector, background light and atmospheric conditions, that
     are used in both simulation and reconstruction. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

  Abstract = Data collected by the Pierre Auger Observatory through 31 August 2007
     showed evidence for anisotropy in the arrival directions of cosmic rays
     above the Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuz'min energy threshold, 6 x 10(19) eV. The
     anisotropy was measured by the fraction of arrival directions that are
     less than 3.1 degrees from the position of an active galactic nucleus
     within 75 Mpc (using the Veron-Cetty and Veron 12th catalog). An updated
     measurement of this fraction is reported here using the arrival
     directions of cosmic rays recorded above the same energy threshold
     through 31 December 2009. The number of arrival directions has increased
     from 27 to 69, allowing a more precise measurement. The correlating
     fraction is (38(-6)(+7))\%, compared with 21\% expected for isotropic
     cosmic rays. This is down from the early estimate of (69-(+11)(13))\%.
     The enlarged set of arrival directions is examined also in relation to
     other populations of nearby extragalactic objects: galaxies in the 2
     Microns All Sky Survey and active galactic nuclei detected in hard
     X-rays by the Swift Burst Alert Telescope. A celestial region around the
     position of the radiogalaxy Cen A has the largest excess of arrival
     directions relative to isotropic expectations. The 2-point
     autocorrelation function is shown for the enlarged set of arrival
     directions and compared to the isotropic expectation. (C) 2010 Elsevier

  Abstract = Weld geometric characteristics in laser overlapping spot welding of
     0.6-mm AISI 304 stainless steel sheets were investigated. A pulsed
     Nd:YAG laser with maximal average power of 150 W was used for welding
     experiments with different laser beam energies in the range of 3.5 J to
     6.2 J, keeping all other processing parameters constant. The main
     objective of these experiments was to study the effect of energy changes
     and to identify the welding mode in dependency on the beam effective
     peak power density. Each weld surface and its cross section were
     analyzed using a laser scanning confocal microscope. The spot diameter
     on the specimen, weld width, and penetration depth were measured.
     Three-dimensional surface reconstruction was realized to describe the
     effect of energy changes on weld surface properties.,

  Abstract = The Pierre Auger Observatory is a hybrid detector for ultra-high energy
     cosmic rays. It combines a surface array to measure secondary particles
     at ground level together with a fluorescence detector to measure the
     development of air showers in the atmosphere above the array. The
     fluorescence detector comprises 24 large telescopes specialized for
     measuring the nitrogen fluorescence caused by charged particles of
     cosmic ray air showers. In this paper we describe the components of the
     fluorescence detector including its optical system, the design of the
     camera, the electronics, and the systems for relative and absolute
     calibration. We also discuss the operation and the monitoring of the
     detector. Finally, we evaluate the detector performance and precision of
     shower reconstructions. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V All rights reserved.,

  Abstract = We report a measurement of the flux of cosmic rays with unprecedented
     precision and Statistics using the Pierre Auger Observatory Based on
     fluorescence observations in coincidence with at least one Surface
     detector we derive a spectrum for energies above 10(18) eV We also
     update the previously published energy spectrum obtained with the
     surface detector array The two spectra are combined addressing the
     systematic uncertainties and, in particular. the influence of the energy
     resolution on the spectral shape The spectrum can be described by a
     broken power law E(-gamma) with index gamma = 3 3 below the ankle which
     is measured at log(10)(E(ankle)/eV) = 18 6 Above the ankle the spectrum
     is described by a power law with index 2 6 followed by a flux
     suppression, above about log(10)(E/eV) = 19 5, detected with high
     statistical significance (C) 2010 Elsevier B V All rights reserved,

  Abstract = We describe the measurement of the depth of maximum, X(max), of the
     longitudinal development of air showers induced by cosmic rays. Almost
     4000 events above 10(18) eV observed by the fluorescence detector of the
     Pierre Auger Observatory in coincidence with at least one surface
     detector station are selected for the analysis. The average shower
     maximum was found to evolve with energy at a rate of (106 +/- 35-21)
     g/cm(2)/decade below 10(18.24) +/- (0.05) eV, and d24 +/- 3
     g/cm(2)/ecade above this energy. The measured shower-to-shower
     fluctuations decrease from about 55 to 26 g/cm(2). The interpretation of
     these results in terms of the cosmic ray mass composition is briefly
     discussed.,

  Abstract = The air fluorescence detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory is
     designed to perforin calorimetric measurements of extensive air showers
     created by Cosmic rays of above 10(18) eV. To correct these measurements
     for the effects introduced by atmospheric fluctuations, the Observatory
     contains a group Of monitoring instruments to record atmospheric
     conditions across the detector site, ail area exceeding 3000 km(2). The
     atmospheric data are used extensively in the reconstruction of air
     showers, and are particularly important for the correct determination of
     shower energies and the depths of shower maxima. This paper contains a
     summary of the molecular and aerosol conditions measured at the Pierre
     Auger Observatory since the start of regular operations in 2004, and
     includes a discussion of the impact of these measurements oil air shower
     reconstructions. Between 10(18) and 10(20) eV, the systematic
     Uncertainties due to all atmospheric effects increase from 4\% to 8\% in
     measurements of shower energy, and 4 g cm(-2) to 8 g cm(-2) in
     measurements of the shower maximum. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights

  Abstract = The surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory consists of
     1600 water-Cherenkov detectors, for the study of extensive air showers
     (EAS) generated by ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. We describe the
     trigger hierarchy, from the identification of candidate showers at the
     level of a single detector, amongst a large background (mainly random
     single cosmic ray muons), up to the selection of real events and the
     rejection of random coincidences. Such trigger makes the surface
     detector array fully efficient for the detection of EAS with energy
     above 3 x 10(18) eV, for all zenith angles between 0 degrees and 60
     degrees, independently of the position of the impact point and of the
     mass of the primary particle. In these range of energies and angles, the
     exposure of the surface array can be determined purely on the basis of
     the geometrical acceptance. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.,

  Abstract = There is presented a simulation of the speckle propagation by means of a
     computer in this paper. The model is designed for in-plane translation
     of an object generating speckle field. There is used the
     Fresnel-Kirchhof diffraction theory for description of the speckle field
     propagation. The presented numerical model involves detection of speckle
     pattern at any observation angles. The model is verified through a
     method of correlation of speckle fields which results are compared to
     ones provided by theoretical relations.,

  Volume = 121,
  Number = 20,
  Pages = 1881-1884,
  Abstract = Two measuring techniques are presented in this paper These techniques
     are able to measure and process the shape of the reflecting surfaces In
     the first part of the paper the theory and modifications of the optical
     mechanical and software design for the Hartmann wavefront analyzer are
     described This new method is applied to the non-contact measurement of
     concave-mirrors shape and objectively defines the shape and specifies
     the difference of the segment shape from an ideal surface with
     micrometer accuracy This difference determines essentially the mirrors
     image quality In the second part of the paper attention is concentrated
     on the other main factor that affects image quality surface roughness
     Thereinafter physical background and usage of the measuring system and
     results are presented (C) 2009 Published by Elsevier GmbH,

  Abstract = This paper gives an overview of the utilization of fractals in physical
     optics, especially of Koch fractals and their diffractals. The term
     fractal itself is defined and some basic characteristics of fractals are
     mentioned. Constructions of the most typical Koch curves are also
     depicted. Laser diffraction experiments using regular, random and
     modified Koch curves are described and the corresponding diffraction
     patterns (intensity distributions of diffractals) are shown. Some
     interesting properties of these diffraction patterns are discussed. (C)

  Abstract = Primary bearing couples used in total hip arthroplasty (THA) or total
     knee arthroplasty (TKA) wear during their functioning which leads to
     generation of huge amounts of submicron wear debris. This induce cascade
     of events resulting eventually in aseptic loosening and periprosthetic
     osteolysis. That is the reason why prosthetic wear is central to
     contemporary orthopaedics. Besides extended material and biological
     studies, an effort is focused on the development of measuring methods
     able to determine prosthetic wear on retrieved/tested implants.,

  Abstract = The paper presents design and experimental verification of an optical
     sensor for non-contact detection and quantitative evaluations of both
     in-plane translation and rotation of object's surface by speckle
     correlation method. This sensor enables to detect both of the small
     deformation tensor components without change in geometrical parameters
     of the set-up and hence its conversion.,

  Abstract = Atmospheric parameters, Such as pressure (P), temperature (T) and
     density (rho proportional to P/T), affect the development of extensive
     air showers initiated by energetic cosmic rays. We have Studied the
     impact of atmospheric variations on extensive air showers by means of
     the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory. The rate of events
     shows a similar to 10\% seasonal modulation and similar to 2\% diurnal
     one. We find that the observed behaviour is explained by a model
     including the effects associated with the variations of P and rho. The
     former affects the longitudinal development of air showers while the
     latter influences the Moliere radius and hence the lateral distribution
     of the shower particles. The model is validated with full simulations of
     extensive air showers using atmospheric profiles measured at the site of
     the Pierre Auger Observatory. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights

  Abstract = Total hip arthroplasty (THA) significantly improves the quality of life
     in majority of patients with severe osteoarthritis. However, long-term
     outcomes of THAs are compromised by aseptic loosening and periprosthetic
     osteolysis which needs revision surgery. Both of these are causally
     linked to a prosthetic wear deliberated from the prosthetic articulating
     surfaces. As a result, there is a need to measure the mode and magnitude
     of wear. The paper evaluates three optical methods proposed for
     construction of a device for the non-contact prosthetic wear
     measurement. Of them, the scanning profilometry achieved promising
     combination of accuracy and repeatability. Simultaneously, it is time
     efficient to enable the development of a sensor for wear measurement.

  Abstract = From direct observations of the longitudinal development of ultra-high
     energy air showers performed with the Pierre Auger Observatory, upper
     limits of 3.8\%, 2.4\%, 3.5\% and 11.7\% (at 95\% c.l.) are obtained on
     the fraction of cosmic-ray photons above 2, 3, 5 and 10 EeV (1 EeV
     equivalent to 10(18) eV), respectively. These are the first experimental
     limits on ultra-high energy photons at energies below 10 EeV. The
     results complement previous constraints on top-down models from array
     data and they reduce systematic uncertainties in the interpretation of
     shower data in terms of primary flux, nuclear composition and proton-air
     cross-section. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.,

  Abstract = Data collected at the Pierre Auger Observatory are used to establish an
     upper limit on the diffuse flux of tau neutrinos in the cosmic
     radiation. Earth-skimming nu(tau) may interact in the Earth's crust and
     produce a tau lepton by means of charged-current interactions. The tau
     lepton may emerge from the Earth and decay in the atmosphere to produce
     a nearly horizontal shower with a typical signature, a persistent
     electromagnetic component even at very large atmospheric depths. The
     search procedure to select events induced by tau decays against the
     background of normal showers induced by cosmic rays is described. The
     method used to compute the exposure for a detector continuously growing
     with time is detailed. Systematic uncertainties in the exposure from the
     detector, the analysis, and the involved physics are discussed. No tau
     neutrino candidates have been found. For neutrinos in the energy range
     2x10(17) eV < E(nu)< 2x10(19) eV, assuming a diffuse spectrum of the
     form E(nu)(-2), data collected between 1 January 2004 and 30 April 2008
     yield a 90\% confidence-level upper limit of E(nu)(2)dN(nu tau)/dE(nu)<
     9x10(-8) GeV cm(-2) s(-1) sr(-1).,

  Abstract = This paper refers to the construction and utilization of the chamber
     that has been used for measurement of fluorescence yield within the
     frame of the project AIRFLY. The chamber was designed to simulate some
     physical conditions in high levels of the atmosphere, particularly
     pressure, temperature and humidity. The aim of the AIRFLY (AIR
     FLuorescence Yield) project is to simulate and to measure the process of
     the fluorescence and Cherenkov emission produced by impact of
     high-energy cosmic rays (UHECR) on molecules of nitrogen in high levels
     of the atmosphere. This is required for calibration of fluorescence
     detectors (FDs) dedicated for monitoring particles of these energies by
     means of fluorescence measurements. (C) 2008 Elsevier GmbH. All rights

  Abstract = The contribution describes two optical and one contact measuring method
     used to measure the wear of polyethylene insert of knee implants. These
     implants are under stress in patient body and therefore they suffer from
     wear. The purpose of these measurements is the creation of sensor
     intended to measure a statistic file of damaged implants and compare
     this file with way of life and other parameters of patients, who used
     them.,

  Abstract = Total hip arthroplasty significantly improves the quality of life in
     majority of patients with osteoarthritis. However, prosthetic wear is a
     problem because of inducing the development of aseptic loosening and
     periprosthetic osteolysis which needs the revision surgery. Thus, the
     polyethylene wear measurement is the central to contemporary
     orthopaedics. Various in vivo methods have been developed offering the
     ability to determine and study the prosthetic cup linear wear before the
     revision surgery. The radiological methods are the most available but
     the accuracy and related relationship between measured linear wear and
     true value of volumetric wear is the problem. As the ``golden''
     standard the in vitro methods can be employed. This contribution gives
     the review of previously published study concerned with the accuracy of
     three radiological techniques (Livermore, Charnley, and Dorr methods)
     based on the using the universal-type measuring microscope in vitro
     method. Moreover, this paper introduces the comparison of results
     obtained by the previously use microscope method and the newly developed
     optical scanning profilometry in vitro method. Results of the comparison
     shows the using of this optical method can specify and spread the
     mentioned study.,

  Abstract = We present a measurement of an object's in-plane velocity in one
     direction by the use of the speckle correlation method. Numerical
     correlations of speckle patterns recorded periodically during motion of
     the object under investigation give information used to evaluate the
     object's in-plane velocity. The proposed optical setup uses a detection
     plane in the image field and enables one to detect the object's velocity
     within the interval (10-150) mu m . s(-1). Simulation analysis shows a
     way of controlling the measuring range. The presented theory, simulation

  Abstract = This article treats of using the 3D optical scanning topography as one
     of possible methods of an analysis of the cotyle deformation. The object
     of this experiment is to quantify the decrease of cotyle material. The
     scanning object is polyethylene coxa cotyle ABG1. We compare two
     identical coxa cotyle. One of them is artificially involved to simulate
     a real using. We calculate material decrease of these cotyle, and then
     we compare the result with simulation and the result of gravity
     surveying.,

  Abstract = The theory, optical, mechanical, and software design for a special
     Hartmann wavefront analyzer is presented. This method is applied for the
     non-contact method of concave mirrors shape measurements. The so-called
     Hartmann test is used with the digital image reading and the fast
     computer data evaluation. In this method a small mask with several holes
     is used. Holes are radially positioned. The wavefront sensor measures a
     tilt of the wavefront or the mirror surface. The tilt measurements are
     then converted into a replica of the wavefront by performing a form of
     integration called wavefront reconstruction. Our institute Joint
     Laboratory of Optics produces segmented mirrors for the Pierre Auger
     observatory fluorescent detector. We use this method as the qualitative
     measuring of this spherical mirror segments. These segments are unique
     because they are light and ultrathin. The production of mirrors is based
     on standard operations commonly used in the optical industry (cutting,
     drilling, milling, grinding and polishing), with the difference that
     they are extremely thin. This fact can cause segment shape instability
     in the production process. This method objectively defines the shape and
     specifies the difference of the segment shape from an ideal surface in
     micrometer accuracy.,

  Abstract = Three dimensional measurements have great use today and it is quite
     large and important part of the experimental physics. These methods are
     also used in biomedicine for measuring the abrasion of juncture
     implants, coxal cotyles and knees. These implants are under stress in
     the patient's body and therefore they change their shape and waste some
     material. This waste is a key parameter for examination of quality of
     the given type of implant. The surface of the used implant is measured
     and compared with unused one. This comparison gives possibility to
     enumerate the waste of material of implant. One of the three dimensional
     optic measurement methods is Fourier profilometry, based on the analysis
     of harmonic structure projected on the surface of the measured object.
     It is profilometric method; it means that the surface of measured object
     is specified in every point of result. Fundamentals of Fourier
     profilometry, its features and used experimental setup are described in
     the beginning of the paper. The results of such measurement lead to
     enumerate the waste of material of implant. The purpose of this
     contribution is the verification of used method to measure the waste of
     material of implant. Its principle lies in artificial abrasion made by
     cutting tool, so the abrasion is defined and known. The surface of the
     implant is measured before and after this machining and the waste of
     material of implant is enumerated. This value is compared with an actual
     waste of material.,

  Abstract = The presented paper is dealt with the calibration of methods of the
     optical 3D measurement of the shape of objects. Methods can be divided
     into the two groups: topographic and profilometric methods. The
     topography is a method giving a contour map as result. On the other
     hand, the result of the profilometry is the data file containing the
     topographic depth (z-axis value) in the regular or irregular network of
     points (they are given by the x-axis and y-axis values). Every method
     needs the calibration of these values that means the relation between
     measured and resulting quantity. The x-axis and y-axis values are
     obtained as pixel distances from the record of optical image by the CCD
     camera. The z-values are computed by various ways in dependence of the
     calibrated method character. It can be the fringe orders, pixel
     distances again, phase differences or others. The paper describes the
     procedure of determination of calibration constants. It is based on the
     known object measurement by the calibrated method and the following
     evaluation of results.,

  Abstract = The paper includes the description of non-contact measurement of object
     deformation by means of correlation of speckle fields. This optical
     method uses statistical properties of speckle patterns for the detection
     of the components of the small deformation tensor of an elementary area
     of a surface of an object under investigation. The theoretical
     background of this method is briefly described and important equations
     are mentioned. Suitable experimental set-ups for measurement of specific
     elongation epsilon(xx) are introduced and their advantages are
     discussed. Concrete example of measurement, where the investigated
     object is a specimen of rubber commonly used in tire making industry, is
     presented including achieved results.,

  Abstract = We present a technique employing a speckle pattern correlation method
     for detection of the slope of an object's surface. Controlled
     translation of an object under investigation and numerical correlation
     of speckle patterns recorded during its motion give information used to
     evaluate the tilt of the object. The proposed optical setup uses a
     symmetrical arrangement of detection planes in the image field and
     enables one to detect the tilt of an object's surface within the
     interval (10 degrees-30 degrees). Simulation analysis shows how to
     control the measuring range. The presented theory, simulation analysis,
     and setup are verified through an experiment by measurement of the slope
     of a surface of a cube made out of steel. (c) 2006 Optical Society of

  Abstract = Moire is a well-known and old phenomenon. The paper is dedicated to the
     moire grating properties and to the principles of its origin. The
     methods used for their description and evaluation are also introduced. A
     part of the paper deals with questions on measurability of various
     physical intensities by the moire methods. Spheres of possible uses of
     the methods are mentioned. The moire methods used, like the projection
     moire, the shadow moire, the in-plane moire, the moire interferometry,
     the microscopic moire interferometry, the holographic moire and their
     various modifications are discussed in the rest of the paper. The
     physical principles including the theoretical derivation of relations
     and possibilities of the technical realisation are introduced for each
     method. The discussion of using the methods is carried out together with
     the introduction of their advantages and disadvantages and the
     comparison of possibilities of modern usage. Many approaches to the
     description of particular moire methods are presented in the literature.
     The unified approach to the moire methods used is given in the paper.,

  Abstract = Topography is a method giving a contour map as result of measurement
     describing three-dimensional shape of measured objects. The paper is
     focused to projection moire topography. The measurement model is
     compiled at first of all. The parameters of topography (accuracy,
     sensitivity, resolution, range) are introduced by virtue of this model.
     They are the great tool for description of measurement from the point of
     view of its quality. Some examples of topography of object are
     introduced to illustrate the theoretical principles at the end.,

  Abstract = The paper analyzes stress measurement by means of the method so-called
     speckle pattern decorrelation. This relatively new and easy realizable
     method for the non-contact measurement of the small deformation tensor
     components of an elementary area of the object surface using the
     statistical properties of speckle field was firstly studied by I.
     Yamaguchi and later by the authors of this paper, too. At first, the
     general description of the presented method is briefly referred and the
     fundamental equations are mentioned both for the case of optically free
     space and image field. Then some possible experimental arrangements for
     the measurement of the deformation component epsilon(xx) (specific
     elongation) on an investigated object rough surface are designed and
     analyzed from the point of view sensitivity and range of measurement.
     Finally, some achieved experimental results are also noticed.,

  Abstract = CELESTE is an atmospheric Cherenkov telescope based on the sampling
     method which makes use of the decommissioned THEMIS solar electrical
     plant in the French Pyrenees. A large (2000 m(2)) mirror surface area
     from 40 independent hehostats followed by a secondary optic, a trigger
     system using analog summing techniques and signal digitization with 1
     GHz flash ADCs make possible the detection of cosmic gamma-rays down to
     30 GeV. This paper provides a detailed technical description of the
     CELESTE installation. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights

  Abstract = We have converted the former solar electrical plant THEMIS (French
     Pyrenees) into an atmospheric Cerenkov detector called CELESTE, which
     records gamma rays above 30 GeV (7 x 10(24) Hz). Here we present the
     first sub-100 GeV detection by a ground-based telescope of a gamma-ray
     source, the Crab Nebula, in the energy region between satellite
     measurements and imaging atmospheric Cerenkov telescopes. At our
     analysis threshold energy of 60 +/- 20 GeV we measure a gamma-ray rate
     of 6.1 +/- 0.8 minute(-1). Allowing for 30\% systematic uncertainties
     and a 30\% error on the energy scale yields an integral gamma-ray flux
     of I(E > 60GeV) = 6.2(-2.3)(+5.3) x 10(-6) photons m(-2) s(-1). The
     analysis methods used to obtain the gamma-ray signal from the raw data
     are detailed. In addition, we determine the upper limit for pulsed
     emission to be less than 12\% of the Crab flux at the 99\% confidence
     level, in the same energy range. Our result indicates that if the power
     law observed by EGRET is attenuated by a cutoff of form e(-E/E0), then
     E-0 < 26 GeV. This is the lowest energy probed by a Cerenkov detector
     and leaves only a narrow range unexplored beyond the energy range
     studied by EGRET.,

     of objects. Such measurement is called the topography. The one of moire
     methods - the projection moire topography - is used. For improvement of
     measurement quality some methods are introduced. At first it is the
     washing-up method which deletes the linear background. At second the
     fringe-shifting method is described used for increasing of data
     quantity. And finally the optical/digital fringe multiplication is
     mentioned as a method for increasing the accuracy of measurement. The
     topography is illustrated on the example of measurement of pump blade
     including its theory, experimental set-up and results.,

     to0,06, single crystals were performed at T = (10 divided by 40) K
     before and after UV light illumination. Unavoidable impurities Fe(3+),
     Pt(3+), Ni(3+) and Ti(3+) were revealed respectively before and after
     light illumination. The components of orthorhombic symmetry g-tensor and
     its principal axes orientation were obtained from measurements of the
     spectra angular de endencies. It was shown that all paramagnetic ions
     substitute for Zr(4+) either in the center of oxygen octahedron (Pt(3+),
     Ni(3+), Fe(3+)) or in off-center shifted along c-axis direction position
     (Ti(3+)). Local distortion of oxygen octahedra was shown to be close to
     that in pure PbZrO(3). Low symmetry of PZT and PbZrO(3) lattices
     manifest itself respectively in 8 and 4 magnetically nonequivalent
     positions of the paramagnetic ions.,

  Abstract = This paper deals with noncontact measurement of object vibrations using
     the theory of speckle decorrelation based on the statistical properties
     of a speckle pattern propagating through free-space and image field. It
     concentrates on the object vibrations in the direction of the normal to
     the object surface plane. It follows a paper published in this journal,
     which presented the theory and experimental results of measurement of an
     object in-plane and normal rotations by means of the theory of speckle
     pattern decorrelation. First the basic relations for free-space and
     image field are introduced, next an experimental arrangement for the
     measurement of the normal vibrations of an object with a rough surface
     is designed. Finally, experimental results for some harmonic and
     anharmonic object vibrations are presented.,

  Abstract = The fluorescence detector, a component of the AUGER project, is designed
     to observe fluorescent light generated in interactions of high energy
     cosmic rays with nitrogen atoms in the Earth's atmosphere. This article
     presents several designs of optical filters transmitting in the range
     300 nn - 420 nm, where the fluorescent light is emitted. Two approaches
     are proposed - a system of thin dielectric layers and a combination of
     suitable glass plates. Quality of different filters is determined
     according to the value of transmittance in the required wavelength
     range, the shape of the transmittance curve at the edge of the
     transmitting window, long-term stability as well as feasibility and cost
     of their mass production. Selected types of filters were prepared, their
     parameters measured and compared with predicted values.,

  Abstract = The investigation of SrTiO3: Ca, Cr, PbZr0.58Ti0.42O3 and PbTiO3
     ferroelectric films on the substrate of Al2O3 and MgO single crystals
     respectively was performed by ESR method. Study of the SrTiO3 films with
     the thickness h = 17000 Angstrom and 3500 Angstrom doped by 0.1\% Cr and
     0.2\% Ca was carried out at T = 18 K with and without illumination of
     ultraviolet light (lambda = 365 nm). Analysis of the observed spectra
     had shown that there were two Cr3+ ESR lines with g-factors 1.977 and
     1.974 in the thick film whereas in thin film there was line with g =
     1.974 with higher intensity than that in thick Film. Calculations lead
     to the conclusion that the line with smaller g-factor belongs to Cr3+
     centers nearby films surface. Small intensity line with g = 2.002
     revealed in the films most probably belongs to O- center. Its intensity
     increases after illumination, but it conserves even without illumination
     contrary to the bulk samples. ESR spectra of PZT and PT films were
     recorded at T = 77 K and 300 K for different orientations of magnetic
     field. Analysis have shown that the spectra origin is Cr, Mn, V and Fe
     impurity ions. The influence of the revealed defects and impurities on
     the properties of the films is discussed.,

  Abstract = Analytical calculations of polarization and optical refraction index in
     ferroelectric thin films are performed in the framework of thermodynamic
     theory. The solution of Euler-Lagrange equation with different
     extrapolation lengths delta(1) and delta(2) on different surfaces
     enables to obtain the thickness dependence of inhomogeneous
     polarization. The maximal polarization decreases with the decrease of
     film thickness. The dimensionless critical thickness l(1c) of thickness
     induced ferroelectric phase transition was expressed via extrapolation
     lengths and was shown to decrease from l(1c) = pi (delta(1) = delta(2) =
     0) to l(c) = 0 (delta1(,) delta(2) --> infinity). The thickness
     dependence of the optical refraction index was found to be proportional
     to squared polarization. Refraction index and pyroelectric coefficient
     profiles were measured respectively by ellipsometry and LIMM methods in
     PbZr0,235Ti0,765O3 (PZT) thin films deposited onto Si/SiO2/ adhesion
     layer/(111) Pt substrate by RF sputtering. The comparison of the theory
     with observed refraction index profiles in PZT films with 1780, 1000 and
     470 run as well as pyroelectric coefficient in the film 1000 nm had
     shown that the theory describes the main features of observed profiles
     and their thickness dependence.,

  Abstract = We have converted the THEMIS solar array (French Pyrenees) into an
     atmospheric Cherenkov telescope, called CELESTE, sensitive to
     astrophysical gamma rays above 30 GeV (7 x 10(24) HZ). In early 1998 the
     Crab nebula was detected at 80 GeV with a preliminary 18 heliostat
     setup. The full 40 heliostat array has since been commissioned. The
     STACEE experiment using the same technique in New Mexico is also
     analysing their first data. Thus, the window between the EGRET
     instrument and the Cherenkov imagers has been opened. We describe the
     CELESTE detector and the data analysis, and discuss the prospects for
     studying AGN (specifically, blazars) and galactic sources in this energy
     range.,

  Abstract = To study a form of a space object of large dimensions and depth, the
     optical moire topography can by used as one of the advisable non-contact
     measuring methods. The moire pattern can by realized by projection of a
     grating from two directions on a studied object. The resulting moire
     pattern is a contour line system showing equal depth from any
     fundamental plane, if the light sources lie on a plane parallel to this
     fundamental plane. CCD video camera provided with a special
     video-signal-filtering unit was used to improve moire topographical
     image. This better visualization of moire pattern enables adjustment of
     the TV signal for its direct computer processing. Obtained contour line
     system can be considered as a map describing in high precision the space
     form of a testing object.,

  Abstract = This paper builds upon the theory of determination of object deformation
     tensor by means of a method availing of statistical properties of
     speckle in optically free space geometry. It deals with the analysis of
     accuracy and sensitivity of a given method from the viewpoint of the
     theory of errors. The introduction summarizes basic theoretical
     relations for computation of stress components in the tangent plane of
     object, together with the manner of their error equations. As it flows
     from theory, the exact results at stress determination depends crucially
     upon the geometrical arrangement of the optical system. In the main part
     of paper, the emphasis on the analysis of accuracy of individual
     geometrical parameters of assembly are given, with the aim to find an
     optimized geometry of experimental arrangement. The feasibility of an
     easy realization in practice and most importantly achieving satisfactory
     results of measurements are the important criteria. The conclusion
     presents the results obtained at concrete measurement with the proposed
     experimental assembly.,

  Abstract = The electron beam welding belongs to so-called physical methods of
     welding and it is utilized to welding of most materials. that can be are
     welded. It is of:use there, where one taxing welding technics and
     structure teclnologyableless heavily. As a rule, the quality of weld is
     better than at most first-rate welds being done by inert gas shielded
     are welding (WIG, Argoarc). In plant instrumentation. where the
     limitation of any welded material distortion is of extraordinary
     importance, this way of welding is significant at welding of
     thermal-treated Cu-Be alloys, used in measurement technics, structural.
     members from Ti alloys and stainless steels in branches of biomedicine
     and cryotechnics. This technology positives, especially high weld
     purity, narrow and deep root penetration, high welding rate, together
     with low energy consumption, lead to applications and verification of
     optimum operating mode at welding of frequent materials. In the
     contribution the results of this proofs of selected welded materials
     from viewpoint of weld quality, their physical-mechanic properties and
     microhardness, are presented.,

  Abstract = This paper deals with a determination of so called small deformation
     tensor of the elementary area of an object surface by means of an
     optical experimental method, availing of statistical properties of the
     speckle field in an optically free space geometry. The small deformation
     tensor and a correlation function are briefly mentioned, and the main
     emphasis is aimed at the theoretical derivation of the relationship
     between the correlation function of two speckle intensities, being
     recorded before and after deformation. This results in the relationship
     theoretically enabling a determination of all components of a small
     deformation tensor by means of a relatively simple optical arrangement
     in connection with computer and linear CCD detector.,

  Abstract = The measurements of temperature (10 K < T < 300 K) and de electric field
     dependencies of nonlinear dielectric susceptibility were performed in
     K1-xLixTaO3 with x = 0.01, 0.025 and 0.035 at 0 < E < 12 kV/cm and
     frequency omega = 100 kHz. Analysis of obtained data has shown the
     existence of mixed phase with coexistence of shea and long range order
     in KLT with x = 0.025. The absence of divergence of nonlinear
     susceptibility in KLT with x = 0.01 at low temperature suggest that
     dipole glass is metastable state rather than equilibrium phase like in
     conventional spin glasses.,

  Abstract = This paper describes the theory of determination of small deformation
     tensor by means of the method, availing of statistical properties of the
     speckle field in an optically free space geometry or in a near image
     field. The small deformation tensor and a correlation function are
     briefly mentioned, and the main emphasis is aimed on theoretical
     derivation of the relationship between the correlation function of two
     speckle intensities, being recorded before and after deformation. This
     results in the relationship theoretically enabling a determination of
     all components of the small deformation tensor by means of a relatively
     simple optical arrangement in connection with computer and linear CCD
     detectors. Further, a compilation of all completed experimental results
     are briefly mentioned. An accuracy and sensitivity of this measurement
     methods are analysed by theory of errors. As it flows from theory, the
     exact results at stress deformation, body displacement and rotation
     depend in crucially upon the geometrical arrangement of the optical
     system. The emphasis on the analysis of accuracy and sensitivity of
     individual geometrical parameters of assembly are given, with the aim to
     find an optimized geometry of experimental arrangement. The feasibility
     of an easy realization in practice and most importanting achieving
     satisfactory results of measurements are the important criteria. The
     conclussion presents some results obtained at concrete measurement with
     proposed experimental assembly.,

  Abstract = The results of the first observation of Pb-207 NMR spectra both in pure
     PLZT and doped by chromium are reported. The observed NMR spectra
     peculiarities were shown to be dependent on lanthanum and chromium
     content, and connected with a distribution of chemical shift tenser
     values and their principal axis directions. The ESR spectra were
     measured in PLZT with Cr for the first time. The spectra were shown to
     be those of Cr3+, Cr5+ and Ti3+ their intensities being dependent on the
     La content. It was shown that with increasing La concentration the
     reduction of Cr5+ to Cr3+ and disappearance of Ti3+ took place. The
     relative intensity of Cr3+ and Cr5+ in the ESR spectra was supposed to
     be proportional to the volume of PZT regions in PLZT samples. It follows
     both from ESR and NMR measurements that for lanthanum concentrations
     higher than 4.5\% there are no local PZT regions in PLZT. The role of
     the obtained data for the appearance of dipole glass state is discussed.,
