Abstract: A device for punching, stamping and/or shaping flat elements ( 29 ) includes a base body ( 1 ) with a table ( 18 ) and support ( 26 ) for the flat element ( 29 ), and a base plate ( 17 ), which supports a punch ( 24 ), and which is advanced with a drive ( 4,5 ) toward the support ( 26 ) and into a working station (II), bringing the punch ( 24 ) into contact with the support ( 26 ). A large number of successive, very short, highly precise, punching strokes make punched holes or stampings. Short stop periods and short clock times are used for fast moving flat elements ( 29 ). Transfer apparatus ( 9, 7; 35; 43; 46 ) coupled between the drive ( 4,5 ) and the base plate ( 17 ) move the base plate ( 17 ) without building up pressure from a position of rest (I) The punch ( 24 ) is not in contact with the support ( 26 ), up to immediately in front of working position (II). The base plate ( 17 ) is then moved into working position (II) while producing a high pressure between the base plate ( 17 ) and the flat element ( 29 ). During further operation of the drive ( 4,5 ), the base plate ( 17 ) is returned to the position of rest (I,II) without building up pressure.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for determining whether an agent is capable of inducing a DNA lesion in a eukaryotic cell, comprising: - exposing at least one eukaryotic cell to said agent, and - determining whether a HR23 protein binding molecule accumulates within said cell. It is preferably determined whether xeroderma pigmentosum group C protein (XPC), 3-methyladenine DNA glycosylase (MAG), CREB, p53, or a functional part, derivative and/or analogue thereof, accumulates in the nucleus of said cell. Preferably, said cell is overexpressing a HR23A and/or HR23B protein. With a method of the invention, a rapid and sensitive test is provided with significant advantages over the widely used Ames test. The invention also provides a method for determining whether an agent is capable of at least in part inhibiting a cellular process, said process resulting in accumulation of HR23 protein binding molecule within a cell, comprising exposing a eukaryotic cell to said agent, and determining whether a HR23 protein binding molecule such as XPC, MAG, CREB and/or p53 accumulates within said cell. A method for determining whether a cell has an impaired DNA repair system is also provided. An impaired DNA repair system is indicative for diseases such as xeroderma pigmentosum, cockayne syndrome, and/or trichothiodystrophy.

Abstract: A stress relaxed monocrystalline layer structure is made on a nonlattice matched substrate by first applying to the substrate epitaxially a monocrystalline layer structure comprising at least one layer, the monocrystalline layer structure forming with the substrate an interface that has a greater lattice parameter mismatch on the substrate than within the monocrystalline layer structure. The monocrystalline layer is irradiated by directing an ion beam to generate predominantly point effects in the monocrystalline layer structure and an extended defect region in the substrate proximal to the monocrystalline layer structure. Then the monocrystalline layer structure is thermally treated in a temperature range of 550° C. to 1000° C. in an inert, reducing or oxidizing atmosphere so that the monocrystalline layer structure above the extended defect region is stress relaxed and has a defect density less than 10<SUP>6 </SUP>cm<SUP>-2 </SUP>and a surface roughness of less than 1 nm.

Abstract: Light from an illumination source is injected into a prism of a print scanner through an illumination injection surface that is not directly imaged by an optical system and an image sensor of the print scanner. This light travels across the prism and hits a highly reflective surface of the prism. When this light hits the highly reflective surface, it is scattered and becomes diffused. Some of this diffused light remains in total internal reflection (TIR) within the prism and is reflected off the inside of the platen surface of the prism. The diffused light reflected off the inside of the platen surface is imaged by the optical system and the image sensor.

Abstract: Bien que les schémas de réduction du décalage de tension continue (DTC) puissent être appliqués au domaine analogique, le décalage de tension continue statique résiduel en bande de base existe toujours, ce qui influence de manière significative les performances des schémas de modulation à haut niveau utilisés par les récentes normes de communication sans fil à haut débit. Ainsi, des algorithmes de compensation du décalage de tension continue sont nécessaires dans le domaine numérique pour obtenir des performances satisfaisantes. On a donc conçu un tel algorithme qui est basé sur une estimation conjointe de la réponse impulsionnelle de canal (RIC) et du décalage de tension continue statique et qui garantit des performances satisfaisantes d'un modem EDGE avec des architectures radio à conversion directe. Une autre modification de l'algorithme d'estimation conjointe, désignée par 'matrice d'estimation perturbée', entraîne une amélioration  supplémentaire des performances de l'égaliseur EDGE dans des canaux critiques sujets à des évanouissements.
