Quantum cloning for absolute radiometry.
In the quantum regime information can be copied with only a finite fidelity. This fidelity gradually increases to 1 as the system becomes classical. In this Letter we show how this fact can be used to directly measure the amount of radiated power. We demonstrate how these principles can be used to build a practical primary standard.
متن کاملSolving RF Interference for a Simultaneous PET/MRI Scanner
Carbon fiber tubing is found to be excellent shielding against 300 MHz radiofrequency (RF) interference for the PET insert that is currently being developed for a 7T preclinical MRI system. Electrically grounding the PET detector module to the inner carbon fiber tube housing reduces low frequency RF noise. Adding thin copper (Cu) foil on the outer carbon fiber case while electrically grounding ...
متن کاملAtmospheric Monitoring Using Infrared Heterodyne Radiometry
Atmospheric constituents have unique vibrational-rotational signature lines within the infrared spectrum and the signature intensities and line shapes vary with the constituent concentration and the atmospheric density. The recent development of stable, single frequency, single-mode laser local oscillators and nearly quantum-noise-limited heterodyne receivers have permitted the development of i...
متن کاملMonitoring of deep brain temperature in infants using multi-frequency microwave radiometry and thermal modelling.
In this study we present a design for a multi-frequency microwave radiometer aimed at prolonged monitoring of deep brain temperature in newborn infants and suitable for use during hypothermic neural rescue therapy. We identify appropriate hardware to measure brightness temperature and evaluate the accuracy of the measurements. We describe a method to estimate the tissue temperature distribution...
متن کاملVisual stimulus presentation using fiber optics in the MRI scanner.
Imaging the neural basis of visuomotor actions using fMRI is a topic of increasing interest in the field of cognitive neuroscience. One challenge is to present realistic three-dimensional (3-D) stimuli in the subject's peripersonal space inside the MRI scanner. The stimulus generating apparatus must be compatible with strong magnetic fields and must not interfere with image acquisition. Virtual...
