5-Fluorouracil (5FU) is an antineoplastic drug with a poor percutaneous permeation. For this reason, its efficacy for topical treatments is reduced to superficial or advanced skin lesions (that have already damaged the h...

In this work, the design, fabrication, and evaluation of a compact, one-shot spectrometer based on a segmented conically bent crystal analyzer are described. The system is a “one-shot” wavelength dispersive spectrome...

Abstract Sequences of aftershocks following Omori's empirical law are observed after most major earthquakes, as well as in laboratory‐scale fault‐mimicking experiments. Nevertheless, the origin of this memory effect ...

Using photoconductance spectroscopy, we have studied the influence of different types of thermal annealing on epitaxial ZnO thin films where band bending effects play a major role. Once the film is exposed to ambient air...

Background and purpose: Accurate segmentation of the urethra is crucial for safe focal dose escalated radiotherapy, while prostate zone identification is important for prostate cancer diagnosis. Manual delineations on ma...

We have developed a high performance analog electronic device that can be used for the measurement of the inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) as a function of the applied magnetic field. The electronic circuit is based on th...

We present a high-speed wavelength tunable photonic crystal fiber-based source capable of generating tunable femtosecond solitons in the infrared region. Through measurements and numerical simulation, we show that...

Today’s main topic is global warming and carbon neutrality. We therefore investigate biofuel (Bio-Energy) in our living space; its amount is comparable to fossil fuel. We analyze the production of hydrogen by processin...

We report micrometric periodic assembly of live and dead magnetotactic bacteria, Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1, which synthesize chains of magnetic nanoparticles inside their bodies, and of superparamagnetic Fe3O4 an...

The Prandtl mixing length model has been used to take into account the turbulent effects in a 30 A high-energy density cutting torch model. In particular, the model requires the introduction of only one adjustable coeffi...

Abstract Using the novel kilometer‐scale global storm‐resolving model Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory eXperimental System for High‐resolution prediction on Earth‐to‐Local Domains (X‐SHiELD), we investig...

Weakly supervised semantic segmentation (WSSS), particularly using image-level labels, has emerged as a pivotal solution to alleviate the burden of costly and labor-intensive pixel-level annotations typically required fo...

A novel closed-loop control methodology is introduced to stabilize a cylinder wake flow based on images of streaklines. Passive scalar tracers are injected upstream the cylinder and their concentration is monitored downs...

Abstract The temperature of the convecting mantle and thickness of the lithosphere control many of Earth's processes. However, there is disagreement regarding the evolution of these quantities through time. We use a glob...

Semiconductor nanocrystals were prepared for use as fluorescent probes in biological staining and diagnostics. Compared with conventional fluorophores, the nanocrystals have a narrow, tunable, symmetric emission spectrum...

Fil: Boczkowski, Pablo J. Universidad de Cornell; Estados Unidos. Wiebe Bijker es un ingeniero heterodoxo y, parafraseando a John Law, heterogéneo. Si entendemos la ingeniería en sentido amplio como el uso del conocimi...

Foi implementado um ambiente virtual de aprendizagem para auxiliar as aulas presenciais de Física, cuja ênfase foi a utilização de simulações de experimentos. Os recursos que o ambiente apresenta possibilitaram org...

The newly developed GSAS-II software is a general purpose package for data reduction, structure solution and structure refinement that can be used with both single-crystal and powder diffraction data from both neutron an...

In contrast to a recently expressed, and widely cited, view that "Ionic liquids are starting to leave academic labs and find their way into a wide variety of industrial applications", we demonstrate in this critical revi...

The age calibration program, CALIB (Stuiver & Reimer 1986), first made available in 1986 and subsequently modified in 1987 (revision 2.0 and 2.1), has been amended anew. The 1993 program (revision 3.0) incorporates f...

This section is written to provide guidance in interpreting pulmonary function tests (PFTs) to medical directors of hospital-based laboratories that perform PFTs, and physicians who are responsible for interpreting the r...
