Abstract = The Surface Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory is sensitive to
neutrinos of all flavors above 0.1 EeV. These interact through charged
and neutral currents in the atmosphere giving rise to extensive air
showers. When interacting deeply in the atmosphere at nearly horizontal
incidence, neutrinos can be distinguished from regular hadronic cosmic
rays by the broad time structure of their shower signals in the
water-Cherenkov detectors. In this paper we present for the first time
an analysis based on down-going neutrinos. We describe the search
procedure, the possible sources of background, the method to compute the
exposure and the associated systematic uncertainties. No candidate
neutrinos have been found in data collected from 1 January 2004 to 31
May 2010. Assuming an E(-2) differential energy spectrum the limit on
the single-flavor neutrino is E(2)dN/dE < 1.74 x
10(-7)GeVcm(-2)s(-1)sr(-1) at 90\% C.L. in the energy range 1 x 10(17)
eV < E < 1 x 10(20)eV.,

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 = We present a comprehensive study of the influence of the geomagnetic
field on the energy estimation of extensive air showers with a zenith
angle smaller than 60 degrees, detected at the Pierre Auger Observatory.
the geomagnetic field induces an azimuthal modulation of the estimated
energy of cosmic rays up to the similar to 2\% level at large zenith
angles. We present a method to account for this modulation of the
reconstructed energy. We analyse the effect of the modulation on large
scale anisotropy searches in the arrival direction distributions of
cosmic rays. At a given energy, the geomagnetic effect is shown to
induce a pseudo-dipolar pattern at the percent level in the declination
distribution that needs to be accounted for.,

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 = 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 = 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 = 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.,

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 = 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

Title = Optical 3D methods for measurement of prosthetic wear of total hip
arthroplasty: principles, verification and results,

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 = 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 and this interesting has encouraged the development and
improvement of both radiologic (in vivo) and non-radiologic (in vitro)
methods for polyethylene wear quantification. The principles of
polyethylene liner wear measurements are predominantly geometric;
nevertheless, the realization of individual types of in vivo
measurements brings with it the necessity of many simplifications and
compromising steps to acquire approximately accurate values. In fact,
the volumetric wear can be obtained by mathematical conversion based on
the most linear shift of femoral head in the cup. However, such approach
is understood to be somewhat insufficient. Our ongoing research pointed
to the development of optical non-contact method for wear measurement
and its results are introduced in this paper including the methodology
designed for the usability validation of the method for the given
purpose and the description of sensor, its principle, technical
realization, design and parameters.,

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
analysis, and setup are verified through an experiment of measurement of
the velocity profile of an object. (c) 2007 Optical Society of America.,

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 = 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.,

speckle pattern correlation for topography of the object surface under
investigation. Scanning speckle pattern originating from different
points of the object surface illuminated with laser beam enables to get
information on height profile of the object surface in these points.
This is presented on the measurement of the slope of the object surface.
The principle of the presented method is shortly described including
necessary equations. A possible optical set-up for the measurement of
the slope of the object under investigation is designed and acquired

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.,

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.,

Abstract = The article is dealing with the measurement of three-dimensional shapes
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.,

Abstract = Measurements of ESR spectra in PbZr(1-x)Ti(x)O(3), xless than or equal
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 = 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.,

Title = Measurement of an object rotation using the theory of speckle pattern
decorrelation,
Journal = OPTIK,
Year = 2000,
Volume = 111,
Number = 8,
Pages = 359-366,
Abstract = The equations are derived for the determination of the components of the
small deformation tensor in the free space and in the image field. These
general equations are used for the case of the in-plane rotation
(rotation about an axis lying in the object surface plane) and the
normal rotation (rotation about a normal to the object surface plane).
The analysis of sensitivity and accuracy is done in Chapter 5. Some
experimental configurations and results are also presented.,

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 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 = 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.,
