Pointwise convergence of solutions to the nonelliptic Schr\"odinger equation
Authors: Keith M. Rogers,Luis Vega González,Ana María Vargas Rey
It is conjectured that the solution to the Schrodinger equation in R n+1 converges almost everywhere to its initial datum f, for all f ∈ H s (R n ), if and only if s ≥ 1 4. It is known that there is an s < 1 2 for which the solution converges for all f ∈ H s (R 2 ). We show that the solution… Indiana University Mathematics Journal

Jupiter's 24° N highest speed jet: Vertical structure deduced from nonlinear simulations of a large-amplitude natural disturbance
Authors: Agustín Sánchez-Lavega,Timothy E. Dowling,Enrique Garcia-Melendo
Abstract The evolution of a large-amplitude disturbance at cloud level in Jupiter's 24° N jet stream in 1990 is used to constrain the vertical structure of a realistic atmospheric model down to the 6 bar pressure level. We use the EPIC model (Dowling et al., 1998, The explicit planetary… Elsevier BV

Jupiter's cyclones and anticyclones vorticity from Voyager and Galileo images
Authors: Agustín Sánchez-Lavega,Jon Legarreta
Abstract We have measured the internal velocity field in jovian synoptic-scale cyclones and anticyclones by tracking cloud elements in very high spatial resolution images obtained by the Voyager 1 and 2 (in 1979) and Galileo (1996–2000) spacecrafts. In total we have studied 24 different closed… Elsevier BV

How Long Is the Day on Saturn?
Authors: Agustín Sánchez-Lavega
Determining a planet's rotation period can be difficult if the planet lacks a solid surface. However, for planets with an internal magnetic field, emissions at radio wavelengths are modulated by the planet's rotation rate. The latest results from the Cassini spacecraft seem to indicate that Saturn'… American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Authors: A. Lazkano,Elisabete Aramendi,Unai Irusta,Jesus Ruiz,José Julio Gutiérrez,S.R. de Gauna
Artefacts created by thoracic compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) prevent the proper classification of the cardiac rhythm by an automatic external defibrillator (AED), making a pause in CPR necessary for a correct rhythm analysis. Previously proposed adaptive filtering methods… IEEE

A simple effective filtering method for removing CPR caused artefacts from surface ECG signals
Authors: Elisabete Aramendi,Unai Irusta,S.R. de Gauna,Jesus Ruiz,A. Lazkano,José Julio Gutiérrez
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) introduces strong interference on the surface ECG, corrupting any diagnosis of the cardiac rhythm. In this work a filtering method is proposed to remove the CPR artefact from Ventricular Fibrillation (VF) signals. It is a notch filter adapted to the fundamental… IEEE

CPR artefact removal from VF signals by means of an adaptive kalman filter using the chest compression frequency as reference signal
Authors: José Julio Gutiérrez,S.R. de Gauna,Elisabete Aramendi,A. Lazkano,Unai Irusta,Jesus Ruiz
Chest compressions during Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) generate important artefacts which impede the correct analysis of the ECG signal by an automated external defibrillator (AED). The suppression of the CPR artefact is thus necessary during resuscitation. The filtering technique proposed… IEEE

A real space method for averaging lemmas
Authors: Luis Vega,Pierre Emmanuel Jabin
AbstractWe introduce a new method to prove averaging lemmas, i.e., prove a regularizing effect on the average in velocity of a solution to a kinetic equation. The method does not require the use of Fourier transform and the whole procedure is performed in the ‘real space’. We are consequently able… Elsevier BV
