Mass Spectrometric Study of Various Coated Targets Utilizing PUPR-MC Plasma Machine for NASA Solar Probe Space Mission
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2008)
The NASA Solar Probe Space Mission will be a historic operation, flying for the first time into one of the last unexplored regions of the solar system, the Sun's atmosphere or corona; hopefully revolutionizing our knowlege ...
Design of an Automation and Control System for PUPR-MC Plasma Machine
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2008)
The automation of Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico Mirror-Cusp (PUPR-MC) plasma machine is part of the work performed by the Plasma Engineering Laboratory in the experiments of the NASA Solar Probe Mission Thermal ...
High Density Plasma Nitriding on Stainless Steel Alloys at PUPR-MC Plasma Machine
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2008)
A novel method of nitriding at high current levels at Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico Mirror Cusp plasma machine (PUPR-MC) has been performed. Nitrogen ions implantation or plasma nitriding increases the hardness at ...
Smart Antenna Performance Simulation in Multipath Propagation Environment
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2008)
This paper presents the effect of multipath propagation on the performance of smart antenna. The influence of the correlation between the source multipath components on the uplink beam pattern shape, as well as the resulting ...
Plasma Gas Identification Using the Single Langmuir Probe
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2008)
A novel method to identify mass composition of plasmas was discovered at Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico Mirror Cusp (PUPR-MC) plasma machine using a Single Langmuir probe characteristic. This is a comparative method ...
Water Quantity and Quality Issues in El Paso Del Norte Region
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2005)
The El Paso del Norte Region faces challenges in the administration of its water resources in the way water is managed due to conflicts with different political jurisdictions and existing laws governing water management ...
Internet Security As An E-commerce Enabler
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2000-06)
In the words of futurist Joel Arthur Barker "when the paradigms shift, everything starts from ground zero". The digital revolution is swiftly reshaping all aspects of life in society "in ways and forms we cannot fully ...
Tip Optimization for Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscopy by Laser-Heated Pulling
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2005)
The ability to manufacture reproducible and low-cost probe tips is critical for the improvement of near-field scanning optical microscopy as both the resolution and efficiency of the apparatus depend on the tip's geometrical ...
Experimental Design of a High Vacuum System for PUPR-MC Plasma Machine
(Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2008)
In vacuum technology it is customary to divide a large pressure region (as of today, covering 16 orders of magnitude) into single, smaller regions. These divisions are somewhat arbitrary. Thus, the chemists frequently refer ...
