Abstract: A burner for a gas turbine including a burner housing is provided. Provided is a lean-rich partially premixed low emission burner for a gas turbine combustor providing stable ignition and combustion process at all engine load conditions. At the upstream end of that burner a pilot combustor creates a flow of an unquenched concentration of radicals and heat. Respectively provided is a plurality of quarl sections surrounding the exit of the pilot combustor, a main combustion room defined downstream the pilot combustor and at least a first channel defined as an annular space between an upstream quarl section and the closest downstream quarl section providing air and fuel to a main flame in the combustion room.

Abstract: The present invention relates to derivatives of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrrolo-[1,2-a]pyrazine-6-carboxamides and of 2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]diazepine-7-carboxamides, to the preparation thereof and to the therapeutic use thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the segmentation of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis images (2D images). The method according to the invention associates an initial protein seed candidate with an interface circumscribing said seed and thereafter brings said interface to evolve in accordance with a defined speed function F(x, y). The evolution of the interface is halted by a stopping criterion, C. According to the invention, the speed function can depend on a wide variety of parameters such as the pixel intensity, the curvature of the pixel intensity, the distance to the initial seed, the curvature and/or shape and/or normal direction and/or position of the evolving interface. The stopping criterion depends e.g. on the speed function F and/or the time of arrival T(x, y) and/or the departure time Td for said interface. The invention provides criteria for a specific treatment of saturated spots and to mike sure that interfaces never overlap.
