Abstract: A rare earth-activated terbium-containing garnet phosphor is capable of absorbing radiation in the range from near UV to blue and emitting a broad spectrum of visible light in the range from about 490 nm to about 770 nm. The emission of the phosphor under an excitation at 450 nm exhibits a peak in the range of maximum sensitivity of the human eye. A light source combining a UV/blue LED and this phosphor can provide a white light that is on or near the Planckian locus and may be useful for general illumination.

Abstract: An internally cooled punch disposed on the end of a ram in a can forming machine. Internal fluid cooling means in the ram avoids the need for externally applied cooling fluids. A plurality of parallel fluid transfer tubes is arranged annularly within the ram. Cooling medium flows through inlet tubes to radial inlet ports which supply the cooling medium to the inner surface of the punch where the medium flows rearwardly through a channel at the inner surface of the punch to radial outlet ports leading to outlet tubes through the ram. Discharged cooling media flows back along the ram and out through a manifold. The transfer tubes are arranged symmetrically in an alternating array circumferentially around the ram to reduce radial temperature gradients within the ram. A central port allows air flow through the ram to aid in stripping the formed container from the punch.

Abstract: The present invention provides an arrangement by which an affected GGSN in a mobile packet switched communication system can initiate a removal of "hanging" PDP contexts. This is obtained by introducing a new supervision mechanism in the GGSN. The supervision mechanism discovers a possible hanging PDP Context and interrogates the SGSN to check the validity of the PDP Context. If the PDP Context is invalid, it is removed in the GGSN. The supervision mechanism is implemented as a guard timer. The timer will monitor the activity (signaling or payload) registered for a PDP Context. If no activity is registered for this PDP Context before the timer expires, the PDP context is regarded as possibly hanging.

Abstract: An intraocular lens is integrally machined from a blank of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) or copolymers thereof to provide an optic having a plurality of strong and resilient haptics. The lens is made from a PMMA material that is specially processed to provide greatly increased tensile strength and flexibility. The material surface is carefully polished to minimize irregularities. It is wrapped in a protective cover and heated to a range of between 35 DEG C and 150 DEG C. It is then clamped in a machine which multi-axially stretches the heated sheet, which is held in its stretched condition as it is cooled to room temperature. Multi-axis stretching under these conditions provides highly oriented polymer chains in the material which greatly increases tensile strength, flexibility and resiliency, thereby imparting these same qualities to the lens haptics. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An airborne Icing Hazard Detector for aircraft uses dual frequency radar beams which are transmitted into a cloud ahead of the aircraft. The reflected signals at each of the two frequencies are compared and processed to determine the presence, amount and location of regions of liquid water in the cloud. The presence of liquid water is determined as a result of liquid water attenuating the power of one of the signals a greater amount than the other signal, due to different attenuation characteristics of the two signals at the two frequencies. A temperature sensor provides ambient temperature information to determine if the detected liquid water is super-cooled. Upon detection of a predetermined amount of liquid water and the determination that it is super-cooled, an advance warning indication is provided to allow the pilot to avoid flying through the volumetric region of supercooled liquid water and risking ice formation on the aircraft.
