We report the use of the Genetic Algorithm (GA) in the optimization of a distributed Raman amplifier spectralgain. The used methodology is based on the direct integrationof Raman propagation equations making use of the transfermatrix method, which ensue into a considerable reduction ofthe computation time. Pointing out an on/off Raman gain of10 dB, we develop a technique based in a combination of theGA with the...

In this paper Raman Amplifiers (RAs) for Wavelength Division Multiplexed (WDM) fiber optic systems are analysed. We start by explaining the physical principles of this kind of amplification are explained, and the principal characteristics and advantages of using these amplifiers are enumerated.The technique of multiple pumping (MP) is studied aiming to obtain broadband amplifiers w...
In this paper we observe experimentally the effects of C-band pump light in the performances of an Lband Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA). An amplifier for C+L-bands in a parallel configuration of two EDFAs is designed, and the inherent implications in its application to optical fiber communications systems. A new configuration is presented for decreasing the signal gain depende...
The effects of α-tocopherol and ternatin on the morphology, activation, and growth of goat preantral follicles in vitro cultured, for one or five days, were evaluated. Ovarian fragments were immediately fixed (non-cultured control) or in vitro cultured for one or five days in Minimum Essential Medium (MEM) with or without α-tocopherol or ternatin supplementation, both at concentrations of 5, 10, or 15...

Epidemiological investigations suggest that T102C polymorphism of gene 5-HT2A may be associated with mean life span because diseases and behaviors related to this polymorphism, such as schizophrenia, suicide, aggression, and addiction, may potentially shorten mean life span. A sample of 687 individuals without previous neuropsychiatric disease was genotyped and separated into 3 groups according to their gender ...
