The document celebrates freedom and living freely without constraints. It describes being born free like the wind and grass, able to follow your heart. Living freely allows one to find beauty in the world and be amazed by things like stars. True freedom means having no dividing walls and being as powerful and unrestrained as the ocean tide, so there is no need to hide who you are. Life is only worth living if you can live freely as you were born.

Plasma Etching of Niobium surfaces: Studies on samples and Single-Cell Cavities (AnneMarie Valente - 30')
Speaker: AnneMarie Valente - Jefferson Lab - Newport News (VA) USA | Duration: 30 min.
Abstract
Plasma based surface modification provides an excellent opportunity to eliminate impurities and defects in the penetration depth region of Nb SRF cavity surfaces. It also allows a better control of the final SRF surface as final surface modifications like oxidation or nitridation can be done in the same process cycle.
In the framework of a collaboration between ODU and Jefferson Lab, we are pursuing the use of environmentally friendly dry etching of SRF cavity in an Ar/Cl2 discharge. The experimental conditions in the microwave glow discharge system with a barrel-type reactor have been optimized. The viability of plasma etching as an alternative surface preparation method for bulk Nb surfaces has been demonstrated on flat samples by achieving etching rates comparable to wet processes, such as BCP or EP.
The optimized experimental conditions are now being applied to the preparation of single cell cavities. The geometry of SRF cavities made of bulk Nb defines the use of asymmetric RF discharge configuration for plasma etching. The asymmetry in the surface area of a driven and grounded electrode creates a difference in the voltage drop over the plasma sheath attached to the driven electrode and the plasma sheath attached to the cavity surface. A specially designed single cell cavity with sample holders is used to study these asymmetric discharges. The sample holder ports can be used for both diagnostics and sample etching purposes. The approach is to combine radially and spectrally resolved profiles of optical intensity of the discharge with direct etched surface diagnostics to obtain an optimum combination of etching rates, roughness and homogeneity in a variety of discharge types, conditions and sequences.

STUCK-OPEN FAULT ANALYSIS IN CMOS TRANSISTOR BASED COMBINATIONAL CIRCUITSMinh Anh Nguyen
This document discusses stuck-open faults in CMOS transistor-based combinational circuits. It begins by introducing defects that can occur during integrated circuit manufacturing. Stuck-open faults are identified as a major source of defects where an output may float to an intermediate value. The chapter then presents a CMOS implementation of a combinational circuit based on ESOP expressions that is robustly testable for detecting single stuck-open faults using a modified circuit with additional control inputs and an extra output. The document provides background on CMOS technology, MOSFET switches, and CMOS switching circuits before discussing faults that can occur in integrated circuits during fabrication.
This document provides an overview of electrocardiograms (ECGs) including what they are used for, how they work, and how to interpret the different parts of an ECG tracing. An ECG is a test that records the heart's electrical activity through electrodes placed on the skin. It can be used to diagnose heart conditions by examining features such as intervals, waves, rates, and voltages. A normal ECG shows distinct P, QRS, and T waves along with standardized intervals between them. Abnormalities in the tracing can indicate issues like arrhythmias, enlarged heart chambers, or poor blood flow.

Matlab code for comparing two microphone filesMinh Anh Nguyen
This MATLAB code analyzes two audio signals (.wav files) by:
1. Reading in the signals and extracting the right channel of each stereo recording.
2. Cutting the signals to the same length for comparison.
3. Calculating the fast Fourier transform (FFT) and plotting the power spectra of the cut signals.
4. Comparing the signals by calculating the mean squared error (MSE) and determining if they are the same or not based on a threshold.
The document summarizes the evaluation of an audio detection system prototype for identifying misloading issues in a centrifuge. Testing showed the prototype had a 93% sensitivity, 100% specificity, and 94% accuracy in detecting when bearings were loaded incorrectly based on analyzing audio signals. Future work is suggested to integrate the prototype with motor control and position sensing to automatically detect and address any misloading issues in the centrifuge.
This document contains the lyrics to the song "Love Me Tender" by Elvis Presley. Over the course of the song, the singer expresses his enduring love for his darling and asks her to love him tenderly, truly, and for a long time as all his dreams are fulfilled through their love. He pledges that he will always love her.
The document discusses the NI myRio and its capabilities for reading image and audio files. The NI myRio can read PNG, JPEG, and BMP image formats. It can only read audio in WAV format. PNG is best for images with sharp edges or no gradients, while JPEG is better for photos with gradients. BMP has both indexed and direct color depths but results in large file sizes. Microphones convert sound waves to electrical signals, with different types using various methods, and stereo microphones capture two channels of sound for left and right arrival times.
