IF THE HUMAN GENOME PROJECT IS TO BE SUCCESSFUL, MUCH MORE RAPID DNA SEQUENCING WILL BE REQUIRED. IT IS ESTIMATED THAT PRESENT TECHNOLOGY IS 100-500 TIMES TOO SLOW TO PERMIT SEQUENCING OF THE ENTIRE HUMAN GENOME BY THE ORIGINAL PROJECTED COMPLETION DATE OF 2005. CURRENTLY, THE MOST SUCCESSFUL TECHNOLOGY EMPLOYED FOR LARGE SCALE DNA SEQUENCING INVOLVES REAL-TIME, FOUR COLOR, FLUORESCENT LINE IMAGIN ...

40900 November 18, 1996 JP Accelerator Works, Inc. Linear collider accelerator systems, proposed to extend the frontiers of high energy physics research, require thousands of megawatts of peak rf power at microwave frequencies. Existing rf power devices such as klystrons are limited in rf peak power to levels that would require thousands of devices to po ...

THIS RESEARCH PROJECT WILL DIRECTLY ADDRESS THE PROBLEM OF SWEEP IMPROVEMENT FOR ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY (EOR) PROCESSES. ONE OF THE MAJOR PROBLEMS IN CONDUCTING AN EFFICIENT EOR PROCESS IS THE CONTROL OF THE INJECTED FLUIDS. IN MOST FIELD APPLICATIONS OF MISCIBLE OR IMMISCIBLE SOLVENT DRIVES, SUCH AS CARBON DIOXIDE OR LIGHT HYDROCARBON FLOODS, THE PRESENCE OF RESERVOIR HETEROGENEITIES LEADS TO EARL ...

HIGH POWER TRANSIT-TIME AMPLIFIERS ARE A NEW CLASS OF RF SOURCE THAT CONVERTS THE KINETIC ENERGY OF AN ELECTRON BEAM INTO RF RADIATION IN A VERY EFFICIENT WAY. WHEN THE BEAM CROSSES THE CAVITY OF PROPER DIMENSIONS, IT WILL INTERACT WITH A SINGLE CAVITY MODE THEREBY RADIATING COHERENTLY AT THE MODE'S FREQUENCY. MODE GROWTH CONTINUES UNABATED UNTIL THE RF FIELDS ARE LARGE ENOUGH TO MODIFY THE BEAM O ...
