GPS scintillation in the high arctic associated with an auroral arc

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that at high latitudes low-elevation GPS signals can suffer sudden fading due to E-region auroral events and that the signal fades can be attributed to the GPS ray paths crossing electron density structures associated with the aurora.
Journal ArticleDOI

The exbD gene of Photorhabdus temperata is required for full virulence in insects and symbiosis with the nematode Heterorhabditis.

TL;DR: A strain carrying a mutation in a gene with homology to exbD, encoding a component of the TonB complex, is unable to grow well in conditions where iron is not freely available and addition of exogenous iron to the growth media restores nematode growth and development on BMM417, suggesting that aspects of iron metaboism in Photorhabdus are important during the symbiosis with the nematodes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of iron uptake in pathogenicity and symbiosis in Photorhabdus luminescens TT01

TL;DR: It is shown that iron uptake (via the TonB complex and the Yfe transporter) is important for the virulence of P. luminescens to insect larvae and the metal ion transported by this pathway is host-dependent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phase Noise in FMCW Radar Systems

TL;DR: A phase noise theory has been developed for FMCW radar systems and a new design equation has been derived to specify the maximum bound on the allowable source phase noise level in radar systems.
