Abstract: A coil with a distributed winding formed from hairpins that each have two straight-line conductor portions arranged in different slots of a coil body. Contact regions shaped in circumferential direction adjoin the conductor portions at one axial end and are connected at the other axial end through a turning region. The contact regions have at the end remote of the coil body a connection portion that are aligned in radially extending rows. The contact regions of a layer are shaped in the same circumferential direction. A portion of the contact regions of an outer layer is deformed in radial direction to form an additional, and these contact regions are shaped in a circumferential direction opposite to the contact regions of the outer layer.

Abstract: A method and system for accurately localizing a wireless radiographic detector in a radiography system, based on a method to accurately determine distances between a set of generator arrays and sensor arrays. The generator arrays and sensor arrays are preferably orthogonally arranged magnetic field generators and sensors, that allow measurements of distances without being affected by presence of human tissue between the generator and sensor arrays.

Abstract: A radiation image capturing system includes a processing unit that determines at least three distances between at least one first distance sensor provided at a radiation generation unit and at least three second distance sensors provided at a detection unit based on one or more signals emitted by the first distance sensor, and that determines an orientation of the radiation generation unit and the detection unit relative to each other based on inclination information provided by a first sensor unit provided at the radiation generation unit and a second sensor unit provided at the detection unit. Alternatively, the processing unit determines distances between at least three first distance sensors provided at the radiation generation unit and at least three second distance sensors provided at the detection unit based on signals emitted by the at least three first distance sensors to determine an orientation of the radiation generation unit and the detection unit relative to each other.

Abstract: A method and corresponding system for optical coherence tomography includes optical coherence tomography equipment that acquires at least two two-dimensional initial images of an object in planes of the object that are spaced apart from one another, in particular running parallel to one another, wherein the initial images each include a plurality of initial image values. In order to assure an examination of the object in the case of medical applications that is as reliable as possible, an interpolation of the initial image values of the at least two two-dimensional initial images is performed in three-dimensional space, wherein interpolation values are obtained that form a two-dimensional final image.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method as well as a corresponding system for optical coherence tomography in which by means of an optical coherence tomography equipment at least two two-dimensional initial images (S) of an object are acquired in planes of the object that are spaced apart from one another, in particular running parallel to one another, wherein the initial images each comprise a plurality of initial image values. In order to assure an examination of the object in the case of medical applications that is as reliable as possible, an interpolation of the initial image values of the at least two two-dimensional initial images (S) is performed in three-dimensional space, wherein interpolation values are obtained that form a two-dimensional final image (S?).

Abstract: A heat-insulator consisting ofa) A finely distributed, powdery or fibrous substance,b) A microporous casing andc) A gas- and watertight, metal-free casing.The heat insulator is manufactured by optionally drying the powdery or fibrous substance, optionally bringing it into a microporous casing, optionally pressing it and then optionally drying it. The powdery substance is then brought with the microporous casing into a gas- and watertight, metal-free casing. This gas- and watertight casing is optionally evacuated and sealed.

Abstract: A preferably platelike form body for use as heat insulation, consisting of:a) a finely divided, powdery or fibrous material,b) a microporous casing andc) a gas and watertight casing.The form body is produced by optionally drying the powdery or fibrous material, optionally placing it into a microporous casing, optionally pressing it and then optionally drying it. Then, the powdery material is placed with the microporous casing into a gas and watertight casing. This gas and watertight casing is optionally evacuated and sealed.

Abstract: A monoclinic zirconium dioxide with an SiO.sub.2 content below 1.0% by weight is provided which is characterized by dendrite-shaped particles with an average grain size (d.sub.50 value) in a range of 0.5 .mu.m to 3.0 .mu.m and a specific surface (BET) in a range of 3 to 15 m.sup.2 /g. This zirconium dioxide is produced by thermally splitting zirconium silicate in a high-frequency- or medium-frequency induction melting furnace with sintering crust crucible, quenching the melt by blowing on a stream of melt with air and/or spraying it with water and leaching out the thermally split zirconium silicate with concentrated alkali lye at 100.degree. 200.degree. C. The zirconium dioxide of the invention provides a material with improved suitability for the production of zirconium silicate pigments of the host lattice type and inclusion type so as to provide for more color-intensive pigments.

Abstract: A shaped body, preferably plate-shaped, for use as heat insulation, formed of (a) a finely distributed, powdery or fibrous substance, (b) a microporous casing, and (c) a gastight and watertight, metal-free casing. The shaped body is produced by drying a powdery or fibrous substance if necessary, optionally placing it into a microporous casing, optionally pressing and then optionally drying.
