Abstract: The apparatus includes two Josephson devices (17,18) In a Josephson interferometer configuration, a magnetic shielding envelope (11,12) with apertures (13,14) arranged so that the magnetic vector potential is confined to the vicinity of one only of the two Josephson devices (but not the interferometer loop region) and a detector (30) for detecting magnetic flux induced by the interaction of the Josephson device and the magnetic vector potential "field". The detection of the magnetic vector potential offers a more advantageous range of dependence than the magnetic flux density.

Abstract: An optical vibration analyser in which a fibre optic probe (10, 11) collects back scattered light from a non-coherent light source (15, 20) illuminating a vibrating surface (28). The vibrating surface (28) causes near parallel light close to the probe to be scattered into the end face of the probe in proportion to its amplitude. The intensity variation is detected by a planar diffused photo-diode (16, 21) and amplified to a usable level.The amplitude of the back scattered light is very small in comparison with ambient light and other non-correlated noise from which it is extracted. The vibrations in the observed surface are excited by a sweep oscillator (2) and the received signal is processed by a dual tracking filter (6) locked to the sweep oscillator (2). The filtered output shows the mechanical position of the surface and vibration amplitude and can be directly monitored.

Abstract: A flowmeter has a vane which is caused to vibrate at one of its resonant frequencies and a flexure standing wave set up along it. Two piezoelectric sensors are used to monitor characteristics of the standing wave and hence the mass flow rate of a fluid flowing past the vane along a pipe.The vane comprises a ceramic planar member (1) on which a conductive ceramic ink is laid down to form tracks (10 and 11). The ink also bonds a ceramic piezoelectric transducer (4) to the member (1) to drive and maintain it in vibration. A non-conductive layer (14) is laid down on the surface of the member (1) covering the conductive tracks (10 and 11) surrounding the transducer (4). A metal layer (13) forms the external surface of the vane and acts as a ground plane for the transducer (4).

Abstract: An optical lens (4) is situated in a closed vessel (1-3) containing an atmosphere including a doping substance. The vessel (1) has a window (5) for a laser beam (13) from a laser unit (10) situated outside the vessel. By mutual displacement of the laser unit (10) and lens (4) the laser beam (13) is caused, to a controlled, varied extent, to affect the lens surface with heat such that the doping substance diffuses into it in response to the heat supply of the laser beam (13) to the object. The gaseous doping substance is selected to affect the refractive index of the surface of the lens (4) irradiated by the laser beam (13).

Im Gefahrenfall antworten die Gefahrenmelder auf jedes Abfragesignal, im normalen Betriebszustand nur auf jedes m. Abfragesignal, also seltener, und bei nachlassender Batteriespannung noch weniger häufig nur auf jedes p. Abfragesignal. Aus der Häufigkeit der von den Gefahrenmeldern zurückgegebenen Antwortsignale wird auf den Zustand der einzelnen Gefahrenmelder geschlossen.

Abstract: @ An in vitro cell culture process for producing in high yield and purity a serum-free and m i togen-free interleukin-2 containing conditioned supernatant is described. The incubation steps during stimulation and conditioning of the interleukin-2 producing cells is carried out with a rapidly rotating roller bottle culture system. Yields of interleukin-2 are on the order of 10-fold and higher than obtained by similar cultivations carried out in flat dishes or tubes or in a roller bottle culture system rotated at conventional speeds. Improvement in yields in both the static and roller culture systems are also achieved by incubating the interleukin-2 producing cells under high oxygen concentrations, for example, atmospheres of at least 70% O 2  and at least 5% CO 2 . In addition to using peripheral mononuclear blood cells (PBL) as the source of leukocytes containing the interleukin-2 producer cells, it is also possible to use buffy coat cells which are readily available as a waste by-product from blood banks.

Abstract: A coordinate input device with display comprises a tablet (100) having a plurality of X-direction magnetostrictive transmission mediums arranged in parallel, a plurality of Y-direction magnetostrictive transmission mediums arranged in parallel and superposed on the X-direction transmission mediums substantially orthogonally thereto, and first and second coils arranged over substantial regions of the magnetostrictive transmission mediums. The device further comprises a plurality of biasing magnetic bodies adapted apply a biasing magnetic field to the portions of the magnetostrictive transmission mediums surrounded by the first and second coils, and a tabular display (300) superposed on the tablet (100) and having a display area substantially equal to the position detection area on the tablet (100). A position appointing magnetism generator (200) such as a magnetic pen is capable of producing a magnetism just enough for causing a local increase of electro-mechanical coupling coefficient in the magnetostrictive transmission mediums in the tablet(100). The device further comprises a position detecting circuit (400) adapted to supply a pulse current to one of the first and second coils such as to generate magnetostrictive vibration wave in a reference position on each magnetostrictive transmission medium or a position appointed by the position appointing magnetism generator (200. The position detecting circuit (400) being further adapted to measure the time duration between the moment at which the magnetostrictive vibration wave is generated and a moment atwhich the magnetostrictive vibration wave has reached the appointed position or the reference position, thereby detecting the coordinate values of the position appointed by the position appointing magnetism generator (200). A display control circuit (500) drives the display (300) in such a manner that the position corresponding to the coordinate values is displayed on the display (300). A modulating/demodulating circuit (700) is adapted for converting the position data expressed by the coordinate values into a signal suitable for transmission through a transmission line, and vice versa. The operation of these circuits is controlled by a processing circuit (600). Appointment of coordinate position is made by the position appointing magnetism generator (200) from a position above the display (300), through the display (300) which is superposed on the tablet (100), and the position thus appointed is displayed on the display for visual check. The coordinate position information thus obtained is transmitted to a remote station through, for example, a telephone circuit (900) and is displayed on the display of theremote station. Since the position appointing magnetism generator (200) is not connected by cord to stationary part of the device, the position appointing operation and the visual check of the display (300) can be made easily without being hindered by the cord.
