Light Curve for Type Ia Supernova Candidate AT 2018we

We present photometric follow-up observations of the supernova candidate AT 2018we, which was discovered by the Gaia photometric alerts system. The first Gaia detection of the object was made Feb 12, 2018. Our observations, made in Cousins R and Johnson B band, range from Feb 20 to May 5, 2018. From our observations, we have constructed a light curve, which supports the initial prediction of type Ia, included in the Gaia alert. Based on this classification, we have also estimated the distance to its assumed host galaxy, which was found to be around 43 Mpc.

A CMOS-Based Tactile Sensor for Continuous Blood Pressure Monitoring

A monolithic integrated tactile sensor array is presented, which is used to perform non-invasive blood pressure monitoring of a patient. The advantage of this device compared to a hand cuff based approach is the capability of recording continuous blood pressure data. The capacitive, membrane-based sensor device is fabricated in an industrial CMOS-technology combined with post-CMOS micromachining. The capacitance change is detected by a S?-modulator. The modulator is operated at a sampling rate of 128kS/s and achieves a resolution of 12bit with an external decimation filter and an OSR of 128.
