Abstract: An optical commutator (310) for combining optical signals emanating from a plurality of optical transmitters (305a, 305b, ..., 305n). The commutator (310) includes a plurality of input ports (405a, 405b, 405c, 405d) connected to each optical transmitter (305a, 305b, ..., 305n) via an optical fiber (315a, 315b, ..., 315n). The optical transmitters (305a, 305b, ..., 305n) transmit the optical signals within a predetermined bandwidth. A switching means (410) sequentially connects each of the plurality of inputs (405a, 405b, 405c, 405d) to an output (415), where each of the plurality of inputs ports (405a, 405b, 405c, 405d) is connected to the output port (415) at a frequency greater than twice the predetermined bandwidth. The output port (415) then provides a combined optical signal that includes the plurality of optical signals.

Abstract: A safety device for an industrial boiler (CHA) including electromechanical relays (RE<SUB>n</SUB>, RS), which are connected in series in order to form an electromechanical safety chain (CH 1 ), and at least one shunt relay (RT<SUB>n</SUB>) which is normally open and mounted in parallel to one of the electromechanical relays (RE<SUB>N</SUB>). The shunt relay is controlled by an automaton (AP 1 ) so that it is closed during a time delay. The shunt relay (RT<SUB>n</SUB>) is provided with a contact that is connected to an electronic circuit (CE<SUB>n</SUB>) and said electronic circuit (CE<SUB>n</SUB>) opens an electromechanical relay (RS) which is mounted in series in the safety chain when the shunt relay (RT<SUB>n</SUB>) is closed for longer than the time delay. Given the arrangement, in the event of an automaton failure, the time delay is ensured by the electronic circuit so that a satisfactory level of safety is guaranteed in relation to the installation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the purification of gasification gas obtained from a carbonaceous material. The purification is carried out by adding oxygen or an oxygen-containing gas to the gasification gas and by contacting the gas mixture with a solid catalyst. According to the invention the catalyst contains at least one zirconium compound, such as zirconium oxide, which is used in particulate form as such or, for example, combined with an inert, honeycomb-structured support. By the purification, ammonia and organic tarry impurities can be removed from the gas simultaneously.

Abstract: A multicolumn selectivity inversion generator has been developed in which bismuth-213 is selectively extracted from an HCl solution of the actinium-225 parent (and its radiogenic descendents) by a primary separation column containing a separation medium containing a neutral oxygenated organophosphorus extractant. After rinsing with dilute HCl, the bismuth-213 is stripped with a buffered NaCl solution. The stripped solution is passed through a cation-exchange resin guard column that retains the actinium-225 and radium-225 contaminants while the bismuth-213 elutes. This generator method minimizes the unpredictable effects of radiation damage to the support material and permits the reliable production of bismuth-213 of high chemical and radionuclidic purity.

Abstract: Fluid roof bits for mining typically supply high pressure water to a location immediately adjacent the cutting insert of the roof bit to flush debris and cool the cutting insert. The present invention is a drill steel assembly for a wet roof bit that reduces the fluid pressure loss supplied to the roof bit. A drill head body is connected to the drill steel by an intermediate adaptor. The adaptor has a spring loaded button thereon that mates with an opening in the drill head body so that the drill head body can be conveniently snapped onto the drill head assembly. A bushing seal made from a flexible material is clamped between said drill steel adaptor and the drill head body to limit fluid pressure losses.

Abstract: A surface emitting semiconductor laser is shown having a semiconductor lasing structure having an active layer, opposed cladding layers contiguous to said active layer, a substrate, and electrodes by which current can be injected into the semiconductor lasing structure. Also included is a distributed diffraction grating having periodically alternating elements, each of the elements being characterized as being either a high gain element or a low gain element. Each of the elements has a length, the length of the high gain element and the length of the low gain element together defining a grating period, where the grating period is in the range required to produce an optical signal in the optical telecommunications signal band. A phase shifting structure is provided in the center of the grating to cause a peak intensity to occur over the center of the cavity by altering a mode profile of the output signal, while spatial hole burning arising from said altered mode profile is ameliorated.
