    • Chandra/ACIS subpixel event repositioning. II. Further refinements and comparison between backside and front-side illuminated X-ray CCDs 

      Li, Jingqiang; Kastner, Joel; Prigozhin, Gregory; Schulz, Norbert; Feigelson, Eric; Getman, Konstantin (Astrophysical Journal, 2004-08-01)
      We further investigate subpixel event repositioning (SER) algorithms in application to Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) CCD imaging. SER algorithms have been applied to backside illuminated (BI) Advanced CCD Imaging ...
    • Changing strategies and tactics for new product development 

      Ettlie, John; Subramaniam, Mohan (Blackwell Publishing, Ltd. The definitive version is available at http://www.blackwell-synergy.com, 2004-03)
      There has been a considerable amount of effort and writing devoted to improving the new product development process during the last two decades. Although there have been some suprises in this literature and in reports from ...
    • Chaos and elliptical galaxies 

      Merritt, David (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1996)
      Recent results on chaos in triaxial galaxy models are reviewed. Central mass concentrations like those observed in early-type galaxies - either stellar cusps, or massive black holes - render most of the box orbits in a ...
    • Chaotic transitions and low-frequency fluctuations in semiconductor lasers with optical feedback 

      Davidchack, Ruslan; Lai, Ying-Cheng; Gavrielides, Athanasios; Kovanis, Vassilios (Elsevier Science B.V., 2000-10)
      This paper examines the dynamical origin of low-frequency fluctuations (LFFs) in semiconductor lasers subject to time-delayed optical feedback. In particular, we study chaotic transitions leading to the onset of LFFs by ...

      Craig, Paul (2010-05-05)
    • Character design and marketing – Designer toys 

      Chen, Yen-Fu (2007-10-01)
      Designing a series of my characters and one story for those characters is the first step in this project. Those characters will be presented on my design products from 2D to 3D and from t-shirt to cell phone downloads. ...
    • Characterization methods for LCD devices with crosstalk issues 

      Laird, Justin; Rosen, Mitchell; Montag, Ethan; Pelz, Jeff (Society for Information Display, 2005-05)
      An approach is introduced for building accurate and compact color look-up tables (CLUTs) to describe the colorimetric performance of liquid crystal display (LCD) devices. In an experiment, a novel analysis technique was ...
    • Characterization of a large-format charge-coupled device 

      Deeg, Hans; Ninkov, Zoran (International Society for Optical Engineering (SPIE), 1995-01)
      Characterization of a Kodak KAF 4200 CCD chip, coated with the UV converter Lumigen, is described. This chip is very similar to a chip described by Ninkov, Backer, and Bretz [Proc. SPIE 1987, 14 (1 993)], except for the ...
    • Characterization of dipyridophenazine complexes of ruthenium( 11): the light switch effect as a function of nucleic acid sequence and conformation 

      Jenkins, Yonchu; Friedman, Alan; Turro, Nicholas; Barton, Jacqueline (The American Chemical Society: Biochemistry, 1992-11-10)
      Spectroscopic parameters for two novel ruthenium complexes on binding to nucleic acids of varying sequences and conformations have been determined. These complexes, R~(bpy)~dppz~+ and Ru(phen)2dppz2+ (bpy = 2,2’-bipyridine; ...
    • Characterization of the effect of surface roughness and texture on fluid flow - past, present, and future 

      Taylor, James; Carrano, Andres; Kandlikar, Satish (American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2005-06)
      That surface roughness has an effect on fluid flow in networks has been understood for well over a century. The exact effect roughness has on fluid flow has not been completely understood, but a working estimate has ...
    • Charting color from the eye of the beholder 

      Landa, Edward; Fairchild, Mark (Sigma Xi, The Scientific Research Society, 2005-09)
      Everyone knows the particular shade of yellow that adorns all school buses across the United States. But how do we define exactly what shade this is, and reproduce the same color from coast to coast? Much of the standardization ...
    • Chascript: A Chinese interactive typographic drawing application 

      Lu, Yiyi (2009-11-01)
      Chinese characters have a complex beauty as well as individual meanings. People, like artists and designers, are often drawn to this. But it is not easy for non-Chinese people to use these characters to design. This ...

    • Chemical carcinogen in vitro testing: a method for sizing cell nuclei in the nuclear enlargement assay 

      Finch, Robert; Evans, Irene; Bosmann, H. Bruce (Elsevier: Toxicology, 1980)
      The observation that cells often respond to carcinogens by nuclear enlargement has suggested that this property might be useful to develop a short-term screening test for such compounds. Previous methods for detecting ...
