The round trip time of the light pulse limits the maximum detectable frequency response range of vibration in phase-sensitive optical time domain reflectometry ({\phi}-OTDR). We propose a method to break the frequency response range…
Data from the VSX, SDSS DR12, and Gaia DR2 catalogs were combined in order to explore the observed temperature distribution of known contact binaries. Color-temperature relations were applied to calculate the effective temperatures of…
The analysis of surrounding media has been a long-standing challenge of optical fiber sensors. Measurements are difficult due to the confinement of light to the inner core of standard fibers. Over the last two years, new sensor concepts…
Four Borehole Heat Exchangers (BHE) were installed at the BRGM Shallow Geothermal Research Facility (BRGM-SGRF) in Orl{\'e}ans, France. They are sixty meters deep and eight meters apart on a line. The facility is localized in the Parisian…
Photonic stepped-frequency (SF) radar offers high range resolution and only requires low-speed driving electronics, but existing architectures face challenges in achieving low phase noise and uniform frequency steps simultaneously. Here, we…
