Journal ArticleDOI

Direct observation of effects of viscosity on the picosecond lifetimes of trans-stilbene

TL;DR: Using a frequency-tunable UV picosecond laser source and a synchronously operated streak camera, the solvent viscosity dependence of the fluorescence lifetime of trans-stilbene was measured.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stimulated Brillouin scattering of visible light in small-core photonic crystal fibers

TL;DR: Threshold powers under 532 nm excitation agree with established theory, in contrast to measured values up to five times greater than expected for Brillouin scattering of 1550 nm light.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk factors for the infant prone sleep position.

TL;DR: Among teenage mothers, awareness of the association between prone sleeping and sudden infant death syndrome may not be adequate to change behavior; educational interventions that are more focused for this age group may be needed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The rotavirus vaccine's withdrawal and physicians' trust in vaccine safety mechanisms.

TL;DR: To determine how the withdrawal from the market of the rotavirus vaccine has affected physicians' trust in vaccine safety mechanisms, future adherence to vaccine recommendations, and willingness to use a new rotav virus vaccine, a national survey was mailed to pediatricians and family physicians.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spectral and temporal study of picosecond-pulse propagation in a single-mode optical fibre

TL;DR: In this article, the power-dependent pulsewidth variations for input 85 ps pulses from a cw mode-locked Nd: YAG laser propagating through 125 m of single-mode optical fibre have been examined using a Synchroscan streak camera.
