An intense large-volume uniform source of bremsstrahlung for pulsed gamma ray simulation

Efficacy of the intense pulsed light source on unwanted hairs

Background: The need for a rapid, non-invasive method for unwanted hair removal has led to the development of various light sources for this purpose. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of Intense Pulsed Light Source (IPLS) on unwanted hairs. Patients and Methods: In this open, uncontrolled clinical trial, 77 different anatomical areas in 34 referred patients to “Novin Didegan Clinic” in Tehran...

Large Volume HgI2 Gamma-Ray Spectrometers

This paper demonstrates the enhanced capability of single polarity charge sensing, the 3-dimensional position sensing technique, developed at the University of Michigan and previously successfully demonstrated on CdZnTe detectors, to improve the spectroscopic performance of HgI2 and to extend its range for spectrometry to an unprecedented thickness of 10 mm. Energy resolutions of close to 1% FW...

EFFECTIVE X-RAY BREMSSTRAHLUNG SOURCE (Is it possible to handle quality of the X-ray bremsstrahlung?)

The efficiency of new nontraditional scheme for generating bremsstrahlung is studied by means of computer simulation. In this scheme the electron beam multiply crosses a thin target due to the presence of special focusing magnetic field [1]. It is showed that one could expect more than two times increasing of the radiation yield power. 1 NEW SCHEME OF EFFECTIVE BREMSSTRAHLUNG SOURCE The X-ray r...

Intense pulsed light source for treatment of facial telangiectasias.

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the first intense pulsed light source (IPL) with dual mode light filtering for treatment of facial telangiectasias, and to evaluate the incidence of adverse including purpura, pigmentation and scars. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-four patients with facial telangiectasias were treated between one and four times wi...
