PMU-Embedded Analytics for Online Event Detection and Classification in Power Grids
The energy requirement of the world is increasing exponentially every year. With the power demand sites concentrated in the region with the highest population density, energy production sites must be located remotely. This isolation requires lengthy and complicated grids to be designed and manufactured to transmit power over long distances. Grid failures...

2020-781 GENE THERAPY VECTORS FOR TREATING LIMB GIRDLE MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY
Researchers in the Departments of Neurology at UCLA and the University of Washington have developed a novel AAV gene therapy that treats limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type R1/2A (LGMD2A), an as of yet unmet target.BACKGROUND:Muscular dystrophies are a group of muscle diseases caused by mutations in a persons’ genes. Mutations within the calpain3...

Distributed Feedback Fiber Laser Pumped by Multimode Diode Lasers
Researchers at the University of Arizona College of Optical Sciences and Canada's Carleton University recently succeeded in fabricating high reflectivity (>99%) Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs) into phosphate glass fibers using UV light and a phase mask technique. With this new manufacturing technique, fiber lasers can be created as single monolithic...

All-Fiber Multicore Fiber Laser Devices
Researchers at the University of Arizona have developed a compact, power-scalable, alignment-free fiber laser that takes a new approach to stabilizing phase-locked operation of multi-core fiber lasers by completely removing all free space optical components. This high-brightness, all-fiber laser package uses passive optical fiber spliced at both ends...
