Devices for SRF material characterization

Material Characterization of Semiconductor Devices

The full-scale progression of optical communications was triggered by the indication in 1966 of the possibility of using low-loss optical fibers for communications. Since then, optical communication technologies have advanced by the development of optical semiconductors such as the laser diode (LD) and photodiode (PD), along with highspeed semiconductor circuit technologies, including the laser...

Srf

Adult skeletal muscles adapt their fiber size to workload. We show that serum response factor (Srf) is required for satellite cell-mediated hypertrophic muscle growth. Deletion of Srf from myofibers, and not satellite cells, blunts overload-induced hypertrophy, and impairs satellite cell proliferation and recruitment to pre-existing fibers. We reveal a gene network in which Srf within myofibers...

Method for characterization of material loss from modular head-stem taper surfaces of hip replacement devices

Assessment of the head-stem taper junction requires the estimation of material loss from the taper surfaces of both femoral head and stem. This paper describes a method for the measurement and analysis of material loss from the modular taper junction of hip replacements, in particular femoral stem tapers where generally the entire taper surface has been engaged. In such cases no direct unengage...

SRF for Muon Colliders

Interest in the Muon Colliders is growing [1]. Electronpositron colliders beyond 2 TeV CM energy are likely to limited by background from beamstrahlung, and proton colliders beyond 20 TeV CM are likely to be limited by the sheer size of the multi-hundred km circumference. Being 200 times more massive than electrons, muons do not suffer from beamstrahlung limits. A 3 TeV muon collider is likely ...
