Abstract: A coupling device for an atomic force microscope with acoustic sample excitation includes a sound generator, in particular an ultrasonic test head, and designed for coupling of sound waves generated using the sound generator into a sample body for the acoustic excitation of the sample body, where the coupling device has a liquid reservoir fillable and/or filled with a liquid in its inner space; the lower side of the sample body can be arranged and/or is arranged laterally displaceably on the liquid reservoir; the end of the sound generator formed for coupling the sound waves into the sample body is arranged in the inner space of the liquid reservoir and/or that sound waves can be coupled into the inner space with this end; and the spatial section of the inner space of the liquid reservoir disposed between this end and the lower side of the sample body is completely fillable and/or filled with the liquid.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus provide for translating a software program page by page from a first instruction set architecture (ISA) into a second ISA using one or more of a set of processors of a multi-processor system; and executing the translated software program using a dedicated other processor of the multi-processor system.

Abstract: A guitar hanger includes a base member operable to attach to a substantially vertically oriented plane, the base member forming an aperture with the plane; and a hanger member including two spaced apart substantially longitudinally disposed rods, the rods having respective ends terminating at a coupling portion and respective distal ends defining an opening region for receiving a guitar neck, wherein the coupling portion is operable to engage the aperture such that the hanger member removably connects to the base member, the rods extending outward from the plane when the coupling portion engages the aperture.
