Artificial heating of the lower ionosphere
… of the electrons with the neutral molecules. Cross-modulation experiments (performed elsewhere) have gained information on electron number density and collision frequency between 60 and 90 km. The experiment described here will possibly allow determination of the electron collision frequency …

Orientation dependence of the acoustic backscatter for elongated zooplankton
The width of the main lobe of the acoustic backscatter directivity pattern of decapod shrimp (Palaemonetes vulgaris) is examined versus acoustic frequency. Using the distorted wave Born approximation (DWBA) and the geometry of a prolate spheroid, an analytic formula for the backscatter cross …

A Wind and Rain Backscatter Model Derived from AMSR and SeaWinds Data
… surface roughening and the normalized radar backscatter cross-section. Recently, an algorithm for simultaneously retrieving wind and rain (SWR) from scatterometer measurements was developed that enables SeaWinds to correct rain-corrupted wind measurements and retrieve rain rate data. This …

Quantification of Ultrasound Contrast Agents Using High-Frequency Ultrasound
… proportional to the magnitude of the ultrasonic backscattered power spectrum. To demonstrate the ability to quantify UCAs from ultrasonic backscatter, several experiments were conducted. All experiments were conducted with FDA approved Definity® contrast agents and were performed in vitro, i.e., …
