β¦ Synopsis
Model Referenced Adaptive Control System considerably improves the performance of an optical tracking telescope.
Summary--The application of model referenced adaptive control theory to an optical tracking telescope is discussed. The capability of the adaptive technique to compensate for mount irregularities such as inertial variations and bearing friction is demonstrated via field test lesults on a large tracking telescope. Results are presented which show a 6 to I improvement in tracking accuracy for a worst case satellite trajectory.

An adaptive technique, based on both surface stretching and surface curvature analysis for tracking strongly deforming fluid volumes in three-dimensional flows is presented. The efficiency and accuracy of the technique are demonstrated for two-and three-dimensional flow simulations. For the twodimen
## Abstract Adult zebrafish are being increasingly used as a model in cancer and stem cell research. Here we describe an integrated optical system that combines a laser scanning confocal microscope (LSCM) and an in vivo flow cytometer (IVFC) for simultaneous visualization and cell quantification. T
