1. The photochemical generation of excited states of oxygen in liver cell culture by the mild illumination of culture medium containing riboflavin, results in stimulation of benzo[a]pyrene 3-mono-oxygenase, a cytochrome P-450-linked mono-oxygenase. 2. The same large increase in mono-oxygenase activity was found when medium containing riboflavin was illuminated in the absence of cells and then s...

in this work the performance of a wavelength division multiple access (wdma) system with direct detection receiver is investigated. for this purpose, the probability of error in a wdma network with ook modulation considering crosstalk, isi, photo detector noise and thermal noise is calculated and the effect of each on system performance is investigated. the system performance in presence of pin...

The problems of photo aesthetic and photo quality are similar, but not exactly the same. In photo aesthetic assessment, we seek photos that looks beautiful to people. The aesthetic score of a photo can be affected by the photo’s color tone, composition, layout, and etc. In photo quality assessment, we seek photos that are in high quality. The quality score of a photo can be affected by shake, b...

gender usually plays a significant role in the works of photographers andcauses men and women to take different photographs. nowadays, photographsand photography have a crucial and pivotal status in societies. the majority of theevents and accidents unfolding in various parts of the world are communicatedto the people via newspapers, magazines, internet and television, and undoubtedly,photograp...

In vitro tensile bond strengths of Photo Clearfil Bright (PB) and Clearfil Photo Posterior (CP) with Clearfil Photo Bond to human enamel and dentin were determined by a truncated cone bond test. Parameters tested were: four substrates (etched enamel; unetched dentin, D1; dentin conditioned with 10% polyacrylic acid, D2; and dentin etched with phosphoric acid, D3); two techniques (bonding agent ...

This paper presents an efficient hardware-accelerated method for novel view synthesis from a set of images or videos. Our method is based on the photo hull representation, which is the maximal photo-consistent shape. We avoid the explicit reconstruction of photo hulls by adopting a view-dependent plane-sweeping strategy. From the target viewpoint slicing planes are rendered with reference views...

Data collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC are used to measure the lifetimes of the B0 and B+ mesons. The data sample consists of 8.3 fb collected near the Υ (4S) resonance. B0 and B+ mesons are fully reconstructed in several exclusive hadronic decay modes to charm and charmonium final states. The B lifetimes are determined from the flight length differenc...
