Electronic memory card, especially for parking

Abstract: The card according to the invention comprises a display device (8) of a state of the memory or of a state derived from the latter associated with a processing unit (1) containing a clock (3) and a means (5) for producing a variable signature, for example on the basis of a pseudo-random generator, controlled by the clock and for displaying its signatures on the display device.

French SWIR technology used for astronomy

Abstract: During the last 30 years, the Space Research Department (DESPA) of Paris Observatory has developed infrared instrumentation for space and ground-based telescopes. First, we present the PbS linear detector of the ISM IR imaging spectrometer of the Phobos mission. Then the CID InSb focal plane of ISOCAM-SW is described. The studies of this CID InSb focal plane allowed us to develop an IR camera for the first astronomical observations using adaptive optics. We also describe the linear array built for the OMEGA imaging spectrometer of the Mars 96 mission. The last chapter is dedicated to the IR spectrometer of the Huygens probe. To conclude, the needs and challenges in the area of mid-band infrared astronomy are discussed.

Veliparib (ABT-888) or placebo combined with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with previously untreated advanced/metastatic squamous (Sq) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): A randomized phase 3 trial.

Abstract: TPS8107 Background: NSCLC is often diagnosed at an advanced stage, conferring a poor prognosis. The current standard of care for first-line treatment comprises platinum-based regimens. Veliparib is...

Experimental characterization of CMOS APS imagers designed using two different technologies

Abstract: This paper presents measurements results performed on CMOS APS imagers implemented on two different technologies. Both PhotoMOS (PM) and PhotoDiode (PD) structures have been designed by the CIMI-SUPAERO group and high APS readout rate measurements have been performed by Matra Marconi Space. Every circuit also includes the pixel's address decoders and the readout circuit required to perform on-chip correlated double sampling and double delta sampling. The aim of this paper is to compare performances of those arrays operating at 5 Volts in terms of dark current, quantum efficiency, conversion gain, dynamic range.

Central guide system for vehicles

Abstract: This invention is relative to a vehicle-guiding system provided with support means and a steering means such as a roller running along a flange way, characterized in that it comprises a points system connecting a track to two tracks and formed by a point and a matching point each secured at their heel end facing the two tracks, the other ends of point and matching point bearing against one another and pivoting between a position in which tracks are connected.
