Distorted Reflector Antennas: Radiation Pattern Sensitivity to the Surface Distortions
The high-frequency performance of the reflector antennas is mainly limited by the surface. It has been shown that distortions on different regions of the reflector surface can have different effects on the radiation performance. In other words, degradation of the radiation pattern due to the presence of surface distortions is sensitive to the location and behavior of the surface distortion prof...
متن کاملPredicting Mobility of Sands in the Future Based on Sensitivity Analysis Test (Case Study: Manjil City)
Sand dunes are one of the most important and sensitive wind erosion susceptible landforms whose activity varies depending on the severity of the impact of various climatic and terrestrial factors. Long-term monitoring of these factors, along with the mobility status of sand sands in different areas, can have a significant effect on reducing their adverse effects. One of the sensitive areas of w...
متن کاملStereotactic body radiation therapy for oligometastases to the lung: a phase 2 study.
PURPOSE To assess, in a phase 2 study, the efficacy and toxicity of stereotactic body radiation therapy for oligometastases to the lung in inoperable patients. METHODS AND MATERIALS Patients with lung metastases were included in this study if (1) the primary tumor was controlled; (2) patients were ineligible for or refused surgery and chemotherapy; and (3) patients had 5 or fewer metastatic l...
متن کاملIncreased tumorigenicity and sensitivity to ionizing radiation upon loss of chromosomal protein HMGN1.
We report that loss of HMGN1, a nucleosome-binding protein that alters the compaction of the chromatin fiber, increases the cellular sensitivity to ionizing radiation and the tumor burden of mice. The mortality and tumor burden of ionizing radiation-treated Hmgn1-/- mice is higher than that of their Hmgn1+/+ littermates. Hmgn1-/- fibroblasts have an altered G2-M checkpoint activation and are hy...
متن کاملSensitivity of the Retina to Radiation Damage
Exposure of the retina of the rhesus monkey to visible and infrared radiation from CW optical sources like the Sun, xenon lamps, etc. produces small lesions or scotomata which may be classified as thermal or photochemical, depending on the wavelength and duration of exposure. The action spectrum for the production of retinal lesions has been determined for eight monochromatic laser wavelengths ...
