TL;DR: A statistical model, based on extensive experimental data, was established to characterize the urban radio propagation medium in various urban environments and the peaks of the multipath response were analyzed statistically concerning the distribution of the path strength and the path arrival time.
Abstract: A statistical model, based on extensive experimental data, was established to characterize the urban radio propagation medium in various urban environments. Describing the medium by a linear filter, the peaks of the multipath response were analyzed statistically concerning the distribution of the path strength and the path arrival time. The statistical properties of these quantities depend on the modulation delay time. The resulting model can be used for simulation experiments in order to avoid costly hardware tests of ad hoc systems.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the magnetic insulator LaY(2)Fe(5)O(12) can convert a heat flow into a spin voltage, which can then be converted into an electric voltage as a result of the inverse spin Hall effect.
Abstract: Thermoelectric generation is an essential function in future energy-saving technologies. However, it has so far been an exclusive feature of electric conductors, a situation which limits its application; conduction electrons are often problematic in the thermal design of devices. Here we report electric voltage generation from heat flowing in an insulator. We reveal that, despite the absence of conduction electrons, the magnetic insulator LaY(2)Fe(5)O(12) can convert a heat flow into a spin voltage. Attached Pt films can then transform this spin voltage into an electric voltage as a result of the inverse spin Hall effect. The experimental results require us to introduce a thermally activated interface spin exchange between LaY(2)Fe(5)O(12) and Pt. Our findings extend the range of potential materials for thermoelectric applications and provide a crucial piece of information for understanding the physics of the spin Seebeck effect.

TL;DR: The main normal and superconducting state properties of magnesium diboride, a material known since the early 1950s but only recently discovered to be superconductive at a remarkably high critical temperature Tc = 40 K for a binary compound, are discussed in this paper.
Abstract: This review paper illustrates the main normal and superconducting state properties of magnesium diboride, a material known since the early 1950s but only recently discovered to be superconductive at a remarkably high critical temperature Tc = 40 K for a binary compound. What makes MgB2 so special? Its high Tc, simple crystal structure, large coherence lengths, high critical current densities and fields, and transparency of grain boundaries to current promise that MgB2 will be a good material for both large-scale applications and electronic devices. During the last seven months, MgB2 has been fabricated in various forms: bulk, single crystals, thin films, tapes and wires. The largest critical current densities, greater than 10 MA cm−2, and critical fields, 40 T, are achieved for thin films. The anisotropy ratio inferred from upper critical field measurements is yet to be resolved as a wide range of values have been reported, γ = 1.2–9. Also, there is no consensus on the existence of a single anisotropic or double energy gap. One central issue is whether or not MgB2 represents a new class of superconductors, which is the tip of an iceberg awaiting to be discovered. To date MgB2 holds the record for the highest Tc among simple binary compounds. However, the discovery of superconductivity in MgB2 revived the interest in non-oxides and initiated a search for superconductivity in related materialss; several compounds have since been announced to be superconductive: TaB2, BeB2.75, C–S composites, and the elemental B under pressure.
