introduction: poor sensitivity and poor signal to noise ratio because of low injected thallium dose and presence of scattered photons are the main problems in using thallium in scintigraphic imaging of the heart. scattered photons are the main cause of degrading the contrast and resolution in spect imaging that result in error in quantification. thallium decay is very complicated and photons ar...

Optical pump-probe setups are commonly used for excitation and investigation of the spin dynamics in various types magnetic materials. Usually spatially homogeneous is considered, but here authors describe optical $n\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}o\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}n\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}u\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}n\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}i\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}f\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}o\phantom{\rul...

introduction: in this study, we intend to use diffuse optical tomography (dot) as a noninvasive, safe and low cost technique that can be considered as a functional imaging method and mention the importance of image reconstruction in accuracy and procession of image. one of the most important and fastest methods in image reconstruction is the boundary element method (bem). this method is introdu...

background: to reduce uncertainties of patient positioning, the computerized tomography (ct) images acquired at the treatment planning time can be compared with those images obtained during radiation dose delivery. this can be followed during dose delivery procedure as image guided radiotherapy (igrt) to verify the prescribed radiation dose delivery to the target as well as to monitor radiation...

It has been a long-standing problem in $N$-electron systems as to how solve the Dyson equation with quasiparticle wave functions defined $\ensuremath{\langle}\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Psi}}}_{0}^{N}\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}|\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}{\ensuremath{\psi}}_{s}(\mathbit{r})\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}|\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Psi...

In the event of a radiological accident caused by an external source, estimating the dose distribution in the victim's body is a relevant indicator in assessing biological damage from this exposure. This dose distribution can be assessed by physical dosimetric reconstruction methods. Physical dosimetric reconstruction can be achieved using experimental or numerical techniques. This article pres...

The FASEB summer research conference on Skeletal Muscle Satellite and Stem Cells, organized by Thomas Rando, Giulio Cossu and Jeffrey Chamberlain, was held in Indian Wells, California, in July. An international array of researchers gathered to share numerous new insights into the cellular and molecular regulation of stem cells and satellite cells in skeletal muscle biology. The conference is un...

Two cosmological models with non-phantom matter having the same expansion of the universe as phantom cosmologies are constructed. The first model is characterized by the evolving gravitational “constant” G and a dark energy component with a non-conserved energy-momentum tensor. The second model includes two interacting components, the dark energy component and the matter component. Closed form ...

An analysis with a transferred hyperfine field has been performed on the spectra of $^{115}\mathrm{In}$ nuclear quadrupole resonance experiments heavy fermion superconductor ${\mathrm{Ce}}_{3}{\mathrm{PtIn}}_{11}$ exhibiting co-occurrence two successive antiferromagnetic orderings (${T}_{\mathrm{N}1}$ = 2.2 K and ${T}_{\mathrm{N}2}$ 2.0 K) followed by superconducting transition (${T}_{\mathrm{c...
