Abstract: A method of transferring information from a content supplier from
one or more databases, such information including program(s), audio, still, data
files, or video, or combinations thereof to a remote location that uses an
authorizing hybrid optical disc that permits the use of such transferred
information, comprising the steps of: providing an authorizing hybrid optical disc
having a ROM portion and a RAM portion; providing the ROM portion to include
a preformed identification signature which is impressed into the ROM portion of
the disc and is arranged to be difficult for a pirate to copy; providing the RAM
portion which includes user-specific encrypted information which personalizes the
optical disc for that specific user and in combination with the ROM preformed
identification signature provides a user-personalized secure signature; a content
supplier authenticating a user using the user-personalized secure signature so as to
permit a user to communicate over a network with the content supplier and the
user selecting information desired to be downloaded; and downloading the
selected information to the user's memory location for use by the user.

Abstract: A racetrack shaped high temperature superconducting (HTS) coil is fabricated
by layer winding HTS tape (18) under tension on a precision coil form with a
binder such as pre-preg filament-ply interlayer insulation. The coil form
includes a racetrack shaped bobbin (12), two side plates (14) and a series of
blocks (16) that define the outside surface of the coil. The outside surface of
the winding is over-wrapped with a copper foil bonded to heat exchanger
tubing. The coil is baked in the coil form to cure the epoxy then released from
the coil form. The resulting coil structure is a strong winding composite built
to close tolerance dimensions.

Abstract: Piston assembly (1) for an internal combustion engine
comprising an upper section (2) abutting onto the combustion
chamber of the cylinder, a piston skirt (3) in connection
with the upper section, and a sealing arrangement for
sealing the joint between the upper section and the skirt.

temperatures of the upper section (2) and the piston skirt
(3). Preferably, the sealing arrangement between the upper
section and the skirt is arranged to operate under working
pressure and the sealing arrangement comprises several
operationally in succession provided counter surfaces, which
are arranged with respect to each other so that their mutual
distance is reduced at the working temperature of the
surfaces, and that a pressure balancing chamber is formed
between two successive, tightly arranged counter surface
pairs (2a - 3b).

Abstract: A syndrome  S  is found from a received information  D  and
a parity check matrix for correcting burst errors up to b bits.
The syndrome  S  is inputted to p sets of burst error pattern
generation circuits that correspond to information frames
overlapping each other by (b - 1) bits and each having a length
of 2b bits. If a burst error is included entirely in any one
of the p sets of burst error pattern generation circuits, then
the burst error pattern is outputted. An error pattern
calculation circuit executes OR respectively on overlapping
bits output from the error pattern generation circuits. By
executing exclusive OR on an output of the error pattern
calculation circuit and received information  D , corrected
information  D s    is obtained. As a result, a burst error in the
received information can be detected and corrected.

Abstract: A method of estimating dimensions of an opening (36) in a body (26) comprises
filling the opening (36) with a fluid that absorbs an electromagnetic radiation (40).
The radiation (40) is transmitted through the body (26) and through the fluid in the
opening (36). The intensity of the electromagnetic radiation, after transmission
through the fluid, is determined at an area that corresponds to a radiation path through
the fluid in the opening. The intensity is used to determine the absorbance of the fluid
in the radiation path and consequently the length of the radiation path. 
     In an alternative method, when the depths of the opening are already known, the
intensity is used to determine concentration of a chemical in the opening.

Abstract: A light source device 20 of an endoscope is provided with a light
guide connector 24 for inserting a light guide plug 15. A ball lens 30
(light intensity distribution transforming element) is received in an end
portion on a condenser lens 23 side of the light guide connector 24. The
ball lens 30 transforms the intensity distribution of a converging flux of
light coming from the condenser lens 23 such that the intensity
distribution is lowered at the central area and raised at the peripheral
area. A ball lens 31 (light arresting element) is received in an end
portion of the light guide plug 15. The ball lens 31 arrests the light
coming from the ball lens 30 and makes incidence of such arrested light
to an incident end face of the light guide 16. Owing to this feature, the
inserting operation of the light guide plug can be performed with ease
and without a need of strict accuracy.

Abstract: The sulfur content of liquid cracking products, especially the cracked gasoline, is reduced in a catalytic cracking process employing a cracking catalyst containing a high content of vanadium. The cracking process involves introducing at least one vanadium compound into a hydrocarbon-sulfur containing feedstock to be charged to a fluid catalytic cracking reactor operating under steady state conditions and containing an equilibrium fluid cracking catalyst inventory within the reactor. The amount of sulfur in the liquid products, in particular gasoline and LCO fractions, is reduced as a result of the increased vanadium content on the equilibrium catalyst. Advantageously, sulfur reduction is achieved even in the presence of other metal contaminants, such as nickel and iron, on the equilibrium catalyst.
