Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for operating transceiver circuitry to transmit or receive signals on various frequency ranges. To do so, an electronic device may determine a receive delay between one or more messages received on different component carriers and may transmit the receive delay to a base station to update how communications are transmitted on one of the component carriers. The update made to at least one of the component carriers may compensate for the receive delay between the different component carriers. Compensating for the receive delay may improve operations that delay downlink communications to reduce a likelihood or stop simultaneous downlink and uplink communications by further adjusting for delays seen at an electronic device when communicating with base stations disposed at a different distances from the electronic device.

Abstract: Subterranean gas capture wellbores are used to capture lost produced gas. Produced gas can be injected into a subterranean for gas enhanced hydrocarbon recovery and rise in the subterranean formation toward a production wellbore. A first portion is effective for enhanced hydrocarbon recovery and a second portion rises past the production wellbore to become the lost produced gas that is converted to captured produced gas in the subterranean gas capture wellbore. The captured produced gas can then flow in the subterranean gas capture wellbore to the surface for recovery.

Abstract: A real time assay monitoring system and method can be used to monitor reagent volume in assays for fluid replenishment control, monitor assays in real-time to obtain quality control information, monitor assays in real-time during development to detect saturation levels that can be used to shorten assay time, and provide assay results before the assay is complete, enabling reflex testing to begin automatically. The monitoring system can include a real time imaging system with a camera and lights to capture images of the assay. The captured images can then be used to monitor and control the quality of the staining process in an assay, provide early assay results, and/or to measure the on-site reagent volume within the assay.

Abstract: A thermal switch for thermally shorting the first and second stage of a cold head during early stages of cooldown of an MRI magnet for reducing the total cooldown time is disclosed. The thermal switch provides a thermal connection between the first and second stage of the cold head, and so the thermal shield and the cold mass are cooled down with the higher power of the first stage of the cold head while the overall temperature is greater than a threshold temperature. When the temperature drops below the threshold, the thermal connection becomes disconnected and then the cold mass is connected thermally only to the second stage, and the first stage remains connected to the thermal shield but isolated from the cold mass. This disconnection may be achieved passively, such as differential thermal contraction between cooling contacts and a support structure made from a different material.
