Power analysis is often used to interpret nonsignificant results (NS). It is a 2-step process: Step 1: Calculate the power of the NS test. Step 2: Use the calculated power to decide whether the NS occurred because (a) the phenomenon was not present or (b) the phenomenon was present but the test had insufficient power to detect it. If power is high, one accepts: (a) the phenomenon was not presen...

INTRODUCTION A fast, efficient and reliable switch is the basic ingredient of a pulse power accelerator. -Two switches have been proposed so far: the solid state switch, and the vacuum photodiode switch. The solid state version has been tested to some extent, albeit at low (few kilovolts) level, with risetime around 10 ps in the radial line transformer configuration! The vacuum photodiode is be...

Abstract. The goal of this project is to determine the absorbed dose of radiation to a patient using 99mTc-MAA as a tracer for a lung scan using the MIRD formula accounting only for the radiation dose contributed by the target organ. The radiation dose for other organs to the target organ is considered negligible as the uptake of 99mTc-MAA from other organs is less than 1%. In addition to calcu...

The method of discrete light-cone quantization (DLCQ) and useful refinements are summarized. Applications to various field theories are reviewed.

We prove some finiteness theorems for the étale cohomology, Borel-Moore homology and cohomology with proper supports of schemes of finite type over a finite or p-adic field. This yields vanishing results for their l-adic cohomology, proving part of a conjecture of Jannsen. Let X be a scheme and n ∈ Z. We denote by (Q/Z)(n) the étale sheaf lim −→ μ m over X, where m runs through the integers inv...

We have used YFS Monte Carlo techniques to obtain per-mil level accuracy for the Bhabha scattering cross section used in the luminosity monitor in electro-weak scattering experiments. We will describe techniques for extending these methods for use in the W production luminosity cross section for hadron colliders.

multidimensional modelling of open-cycle process of om355 engine was developed. calculations for computational mesh were carried out. the results of the model were validated by experimentally measured in-cylinder pressure and the good agreement between calculations and measurements approved the trustworthy of numerical code. results included pressure, temperature, emission and rate of heat rele...

Introduction: Each treatment planning algorithm has some errors in dose calculation. Particularly these errors are more pronounced in the heterogeneous regions. It is recommended for each set of radiation data and algorithm subtle deliberation done regarding dose calculation accuracy. Knowing the amount of error in dose calculation will result in a fairly accurate estimate of t...
