background: photon attenuation as an inevitable physical phenomenon influences on the diagnostic information of spect images and results to errors in accuracy of quantitative measurements. this can be corrected via different physical or mathematical approaches. as the correction equation in mathematical approaches is nonlinear, in this study a new method of linearization called ‘piece wise line...

We present exact analytical solutions to study the coherent interaction between a single photon and the mechanical motion of a membrane in quadratic optomechanics. We consider single-photon emission and scattering when the photon is initially inside the cavity and in the fields outside the cavity, respectively. Using our solutions, we calculate the single-photon emission and scattering spectra,...

The new version of the Monte Carlo program for small-angle Bhabha scattering BHLUMI with an overall precision of 0.11% is presented. The main improvements are in the matrix element of the main multi-photon sub-generator based on the Yennie-Frautschi-Suura exponentiation, where the missing second-order terms in the leading-logarithmic (LL) approximation are supplemented and the contribution from...

cavity quantum electrodynamics describes the behaviour of a quantum emitter inside an optical cavity, and is one of the few realizable experimental systems in which the coherent interaction between the emitter and the cavity mode can exceed dissipative and dephasing processes. Recent advances in this field include the observation of vacuum Rabi splitting1–3, interference4, upconversion5 and the...

The hypersensitive response (HR) is one mechanism of the resistance of plants to pathogen infection. It involves the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which have crucial roles in signal transduction or as toxic agents leading to cell death. Often, ROS generation is accompanied by an ultraweak photon emission resulting from radical reactions that are initiated by ROS through the oxidat...
