This paper is concerned with the field enhancement when an electromagnetic wave passes through subwavelength metallic gaps. We focus on a particular configuration when there is extreme scale difference between the wavelength of the incident wave, the thickness of metal films, and the size of gap apertures. Based upon a rigorous study of the perfect electrical conductor model for the transverse ...

the present study investigated comparatively the impact of two types of input enhancement (i.e. textual vs. compound enhancement) on developing grammar ability in iranian efl setting. sixty-five female secondary high school students were selected as a homogenous sample out of about a 100-member population based on nelson language proficiency test. then, their grammar ability was measured based ...

A post contrast magnetic resonance imaging study has been performed in a wide population of low back pain patients to investigate which radiological and phenotypic characteristics influence the penetration of the contrast agent in lumbar discs in vivo. 37 patients affected by different pathologies (disc herniation, spondylolisthesis, foraminal stenosis, central canal stenosis) were enrolled in ...

in this study, we synthesized herceptin conjugated magnetic nanoparticles (hmns) as an alternative probe to discover the levels of her2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor-2) in the surface of cells. these nanoparticles can be used by magnetic resonance imaging (mri) (non-invasive methods) for screening the patients with her2 positive or negative tumors. dextran coated iron oxide nanopartic...
