Spatially modulated emission for point-of-care flow cytometer
In this presentation we will describe and illustrate a fundamentally new design of the optical detection system that delivers high effective sensitivity (i.e., high signal-to-noise discrimination) without complex optics or bulky, expensive light sources to enable a flow cytometer that combines high performance, robustness, compactness, low cost, and ease of use.

Efficient broadcast in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks with a realistic physical layer
We present an analytical model to show that the transmission radii used for nodes can be used to establish a tradeoff between minimizing energy consumption and ensuring network coverage.

Astronomical Sky Spectra from the 29-31 October 2003 Geomagnetic Superstorms: Observations of O(+)((2)D(O)-(4)S(O)) and Other Emissions
High-resolution spectra of the night sky at near-equatorial latitudes have been obtained with the Ultraviolet and Visual Echelle Spectrograph on the 8.2 m Kueyen telescope, European Southern Observatory, Cerro Paranal, Chile, during the 29–31 October 2003 geomagnetic superstorms.
