Title: Hardwood alkaline pulping processes and systems
Inventor: STROMBERG C BERTIL
IPC: D21C3/02
Filed: 2007-03-08
Abstract: Hardwood pulp rejects at a given Kappa number can be reduced by subjecting the hardwood pulp to specified cooking conditions at the end of cooking. In this regard, it has been discovered that s-lignin reacts faster than g-lignin and that there exists a higher proportion of g-lignin at the end of a hardwood cook as compared to the g-lignin present at the beginning of the cook. Thus, when cooking hardwoods, relatively harsher cooking conditions (e.g., higher cooking temperatures) at the end of the cooking have been discovered to decrease the g-lignin content which in turn decreases the percentage of pulp rejects at a given Kappa number. In preferred embodiments, methods and systems are provided for continuously producing chemical cellulose pulp from a slurry of comminuted hardwood material by subjecting the slurry of comminuted hardwood material to a first cooking stage under conditions sufficient to reduce syringyl lignin (s-lignin) content in the hardwood material as compared to guaiacyl lignin (g-lignin) content therein, and thereafter subjecting the slurry of comminuted hardwood material to a second cooking stage under conditions sufficient to reduce the g-lignin content remaining therein after the first cooking stage.

Abstract: A method is provided for broadcasting a packet over multiple dissimilar wireless networks, at least one of the networks natively supporting broadcasting and at least one of the networks not natively supporting broadcasting. The method includes determining whether the packet is to be broadcast (S14); and when the packet should be broadcast, determining recipients of the packet (S18). A current network over which the packet will be broadcast is then selected based upon the determined recipients (S20).  Subsequently, it is determined whether the current network (S24) supports broadcasting. When the current network does not natively support broadcasting, the packet is individually sent to each recipient over the current network (S36). When the current network does natively support broadcasting, the packet is broadcasted to the recipients over the current network (S26).

Title: Laser-accelerated proton therapy units and superconducting electromagnet systems for same
Inventor: MA CHANG MING
IPC: C08L91/00
Filed: 2005-12-21
Abstract: Compact particle selection and collimation devices are disclosed for delivering beams of ions with desired energy spectra. These devices are useful with laser-accelerated ion therapy systems, in which the initial ions have broad energy and angular distributions. Superconducting electromagnet systems produce a desired magnetic field configuration to spread the ions with different energies and emitting angles for particle selection. The simulation of ion transport in the presence of the magnetic field shows that the selected ions are successfully refocused on the beam axis after passing through the magnetic field. Dose distributions are also provided using Monte Carlo simulations of the laser-accelerated ion beams for radiation therapy applications.
