The manufacturing industry plays a key role in Vietnam (due to its labour advantage), generating jobs, contributing to social and political stability, and adding high value exports to help the balance payment. As Vietnam becomes more and more active in its pursuit of global economic integration, the entry of many foreign giants into its own domestic market will surely intensify the competition....

We study a system of self-propelled agents with the restricted vision. The field of vision of each agent is only a sector of disk bounded by two radii and the included arc. The inclination of these two radii is characterized by the view angle. The consideration of restricted vision is closer to the reality because natural swarms usually do not have a panoramic view. Interestingly, we find that...

We discuss the measurable structure factor SM(q) of highly concentrated nanoemulsions in a glassy amorphous state. Neutron scattering data show that the primary structure factor peak decreases with increasing concentration and eventually drops below unity. We find very good quantitative agreement between the experimental SM(q) and analytical...

A novel heteroarm star block terpolymer bearing short polystyrene (PS) arms and an equal number of longer poly(2-vinylpyridine)-block-poly(acrylic acid) (P2VP-b-PAA) arms was used as the macromolecular template component in polyelectrolyte-surfactant supramolecular complexes. The ampholytic nature of this novel star block copolymer allowed complexation to be carried out on either the P2VP blocks...

The effort towards a new measurement of the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) at the Paul Scherrer Institut's (PSI) new high intensity source of ultracold neutrons (UCN) is described. The experimental technique relies on Ramsey's method of separated oscillatory fields, using UCN in vacuum with the apparatus at ambient temperature. In the first phase, R&D towards the upgrade of the...

High precision mapping of weak magnetic fields is of interest for several branches of pure and applied research. This paper presents a resume of the progress made at Fribourg in adapting laboratory style laser-pumped optical Cs magnetometers to multisensor field mapping problems. Progress has been made in sensor head design and manufacture, laser beam splitting and control, and signal treatment...
