In the experimental tests of gravity, there have been considerable interests in the possibility of intermediate-range gravity. In this paper, we use the earth–satellite measurement of earth gravity, the lunar orbiter measurement of lunar gravity, and lunar laser ranging measurement to constrain the intermediate-range gravity from λ = 1.2 × 107 m –3.8 × 108 m . The limits for this range are α = 10-8–5 × 10-8, which improve previous limits by about one order of magnitude in the range λ = 1.2 × 107 m –3.8 × 108 m .

<p>Since a few years, several laboratories, institutes or organizations through the world have acquired marketed quantum absolute gravimeters AQG developed by Muquans. Among their potentialities, these new generations of instruments are expected to complement the existing capabilities of long term monitoring of the Earth gravity field. A metrological evaluation of their performances for long-term measurements is thus a first step.</p><p>The LNE-SYRTE gravimetry laboratory in the suburb of Paris, has been designed to accommodate other gravimeters for metrological comparisons, tests and calibrations. Instruments of different classes operate in this well characterized laboratory: a laboratory-based absolute cold atom gravimeter (CAG) and a relative superconducting gravimeter iGrav. Both instruments allow for continuous measurements, Accuracy is guaranteed by the CAG and long-term stability by the iGrav.</p><p>We there have performed a more than one-year long measurement session with the initial version of the marketed quantum gravimeter AQG (AQG-A01).</p><p>An improved version of this AQG (AQG-B01) designed for outdoor measurement and recently acquired by RESIF (the French Seismologic and Geodetic Network) has been also implemented to close this session with a last month of simultaneous data recording involving all the instruments. Finally, we also performed supplementary accuracy tests, in particular to evaluate the Coriolis bias of the two AQG commercial sensors.</p><p>The talk will briefly present the different instruments to rapidly focus on the performances of the AQGs and results of the comparisons.</p>

One source of essential oil that has long been popular is a citrus fruit (Citrus aurantium). Results waste citrus peel around 500,000 tonnes per year. So the prospects for the utilization of waste orange peel are big enough to extract the essential oil. However, conventional extraction methods have drawbacks in terms of product quality, so to find solutions to these shortcomings, it is necessary to use the extraction method by Microwave Hydrodiffusion and Gravity (MHG). This method combines the use of microwave heating and physical phenomena (hydrodiffusi and earth gravity) at atmospheric pressure, without addition of organic solvents or water. In this study used fresh orange peel material 400 and 500 grams, two variable microwave power of 100 and 300 Watt and the extraction time for 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes. To know the processing time and the microwave power effective method of MHG, oil composition was analyzed by GCMS to determine the amount of the fraction of oxygenated compounds. The larger of installed microwave power, the higher of operating temperature, so the %yield increases in a shorter time. From the comparison of energy consumed, the MHG method is give 30% more energy efficient than the Microwave Hydrodistillation (MHD) method. The use of microwaves does not change the physical properties of oil. The oil produced from the MHG method has a good quality because it has specific gravity and refractive index values that meet the EOA quality standard and has a greater oxygenated compounds content than the MHD method

AbstractEvaluating the state of the oculomotor system of a patient is one of the fundamental tests done in neuro-ophthalmology. However, up to date, very few quantitative standardized tests of eye movements quality exist, limiting this assessment to confrontational tests reliant on subjective interpretation. Furthermore, quantitative tests relying on eye movement properties such as pursuit gain and saccade dynamics are often insufficient to capture the complexity of the underlying disorders and are often (too) long and tiring. In this study, we present SONDA (Standardised Oculomotor and Neurological Disorder Assessment): this test is based on analyzing eye tracking recorded during a short and intuitive continuous tracking task. We tested patients affected by Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and find that: (1) the saccadic dynamics of the main sequence alone are not sufficient to separate patients from healthy controls; (2) the combination of spatio-temporal and statistical properties of saccades and saccadic dynamics enables an identification of oculomotor abnormalities in both MS and PD patients. We conclude that SONDA constitutes a powerful screening tool that allows an in-depth evaluation of (deviant) oculomotor behavior in a few minutes of non-invasive testing.
