New Generation Nuclear Microprobe Systems
Over the past 20 years, the minimum probe size for nuclear microscopy has stayed around 1 micrometre. No breakthroughs in nuclear microprobe design have been forthcoming to produce dramatic improvements in spatial resolution. The difficulties of breaking the constraints that are preventing reduction of the probe size have been well recognised in the past. Over the past 5 years it has become cle...
متن کاملThe nuclear microprobe: a unique instrument
There are several features characterising high-energy ion interactions with matter which enables techniques which utilise the high-energy ion beam to have unique or advantageous characteristics. (i) The lack of primary particle bremsstrahlung enables Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) to be carried out with very little X-ray background, and therefore correspondingly high analytical sensitiv...
متن کاملThe new direction of nuclear medicine
The role of the nuclear medicine has changed, from the early days when it was the only alternative to x-rays, to the present, when nuclear images are interpreted in light of specific metabolic processes, not anatomy. The development of specific receptor targeting radiopharmaceuticals, markers of viability using PETor SPECT, analogues of neurotransmitters etc., have placed the nuclear medi...
متن کاملA New Look at the Nuclear Force
Once the boson resonances were discovered, the first part of the Taketani program-the calculation of the peripheral region of the nuclear force-achieved a quantitative success. Calculations of the dynamical (two-pion-exchange) region have proved much more difficult. By 1975 increasingly sophisticated dispersiontheoretic calculations coupled with increasingly accurate measurements of ~7r paramet...
متن کاملAn Overview of Bioinformatics Research at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
Depending on who you ask, bioinformatics can refer to almost any collaborative effort between biologists or geneticists and computer scientists – from database development, to simulating the chemical reaction between proteins, to automatically identifying tumors in MRI images. At Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), we have come to use a slightly more restrictive definition. We consid...
