Abstract: A conductor for a superconducting cable comprises a hollow copper section, either open (a channel) or closed (a tube) having at least one elementary superconductor tape loosely housed within it so as to admit relative movement with respect to the copper section, at least (and preferably only, once the conductor is terminated) in the direction of the width of the tape(s). This provides adequate contact between the tape(s) and the copper without giving rise to the stresses and risk of damage on flexing a conductor in which the tapes are solidly bonded to the copper.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for carrying out synchronous co-division multiple access (SCDMA) communication of multiple channels of digital data over a shared transmission media (1162). The system includes modems at remote units (1164) and a central unit (1160) to receive time division multiplexed digital data arranged into timeslots or channels and uses orthogonal codes to encode each channel of multiple data and spread the energy of each channel data over a frame of data transmitted in a code domain. Frames are synchronized as between remote (1164) and central units (1160) using a ranging scheme which is also useful in any other system transmitting data by frames in a distributed system where synchronizing the frames as between all units regardless of differences in propagation delays is necessary. Each frame in the SCDMA modulation scheme includes a gap or guardband containing no other data.

The rotating element is provided with a symmetrical, coherent shaping edge, or is provided with such an edge at one end, or as an alternative, is a shaping head which travels around a symmetrical, coherent contour. The axis of rotation of the rotating element is then placed at an angle to the axis of rotation of the material and, during shaping, a force is exerted on the rotating element such that the shaping edge or the shaping head is held in contact with the material and such that the lateral position of the shaping edge or the contour around which the rotating element travels in operation remains approximately constant with respect to the material. The shaping edge/contour has an acircular shape and the orientation thereof is kept approximately constant with respect to the material during shaping. The shape of the shaping edge/contour and the angle between the axis of rotation are matched to the desired ashperical shape of the curves of the material.

Abstract: Cette invention porte sur un système de sécurité électronique qui intègre des dispositifs de protection d'immobilisation (IPD) dans des produits et éléments électroniques. Les IPD ont un contrôle d'accès à un fournisseur de services de sécurité (SSP). A la mise en tension, et ensuite périodiquement, l'IPD adresse une 'interrogation' cryptographiquement sûre au SSP. Si une partie n'a pas été déclarée volée, le SSP retourne une 'réponse' valide cryptographiquement sûre; dans le cas contraire, il retourne une 'réponse' invalide. Si l'IPD reçoit une 'réponse' invalide, ou ne reçoit pas de 'réponse' dans un laps de temps déterminé, il neutralise la partie. Une 'réponse' valide donnée dans la limite de temps permet à la partie de fonctionner normalement. Un produit volé et récupéré peut être identifié et restitué à son propriétaire légitime, qui s'adresse au SSP pour revalider le produit. Les IPD autorisent des parties spécifiques à fonctionner normalement pendant unlaps de temps déterminé, de sorte que les ressources matérielles, logicielles et de réseau existantes puissent être utilisées pour communiquer avec le SSP.

Abstract: A circuit configuration for supplying an electronic load circuit with an electrical high voltage, whose value has a magnitude greater than a value of a voltage supply that supplies the circuit configuration. The circuit configuration has a pump circuit that is electrically connected to the load circuit and outputs the high voltage to the load circuit on the basis of an internal switching signal which has a predetermined pump frequency. The electrical pump power, which is taken up by the load circuit, of the pump circuit essentially depends both on the value of the supply voltage and on the value of the pump frequency of the switching signal of the pump circuit. The circuit configuration has an electronic control circuit that is assigned to the pump circuit and supplied with a voltage derived at least from the supply voltage of the pump circuit. In dependence on a control signal that depends on the value of the supply voltage, the control circuit emits to the pump circuit a switching signal that acts on the pump frequency for generating the high voltage which is output by the pump circuit in such a way that the value of the pump frequency of the switching signal is inversely proportional to the value of the supply voltage.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/DE97/01832 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 1, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 1, 1999 PCT Filed Aug. 21, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO98/09337 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 5, 1998The invention relates to a method of fabricating a strip CIS solar cell and an apparatus for practicing the method. It is the task of the invention to describe a method and an apparatus for providing a technical solution as well as the required layer structure, by which it is possible economically to fabricate adhering CIS solar cells on copper strips. In accordance with the invention the task is solved by a first step of continuously galvanically coating one side of a pre-cleaned copper strip with indium, a second step of very quickly heating the copper strip coated with indium by a contact method with a heated body of graphite and to bring one side into contact with a heated sulfur or selenium containing carrier gas in a narrow gap, a third step of selectively removing by an etching technique the generated cover layer of copper sulfide or selenide, and a fourth step of providing a p+ conductive transparent collector or planarizing layer of copper oxide/sulfide. It is a further object of the invention to develop a reactor for practicing the method. The reactor consists of a strip heater made of graphite convexly curved at its gapped surface, a gas heater also made of graphite concavely curved at the gapped surface and quartz glass plates which close a gap set between the strip heater and the gas heater toward the exterior. The strip heater and the gas heater may be separately heated from their interior or their exterior to the necessary process temperatures by radiation heaters.

Abstract: Stable, aqueous form of (+)-(R)-thalidomide or (-)-(S)-thalidomide contains the enantiomer of thalidomide dissolved in pure form in isotonic glucose solution and has a pH ≤ 5.5. An Independent claim is also included for the production of the aqueous thalidomide solution, comprising: (a) adding (+)-(R) or (-)-S-thalidomide to isotonic glucose at pH 4-5; (b) shaking until dissolution is complete; and (c) treating with ultrasound and filtering under aseptic conditions. Use of pure enantiomers of thalidomide allows water-stable solutions that do not give rise to toxicological effects. The enantiomers have higher solubility in water than the racemate. At pH ≤ 5.5, hydrolysis of thalidomide does not occur. Solutions are suitable for parenteral administration.
