BACKGROUND The function of the right and left ventricles is intimately related through a shared septum and pericardium. Therefore, right ventricular (RV) disease in pulmonary hypertension (PH) can result in abnormal left ventricular (LV) myocardial mechanics. To assess this, we implemented novel cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) tissue phase mapping (TPM) to assess radial, longitudinal an...

This paper begins with an examination of the revival structure and long-term evolution of Rydberg wave packets for hydrogen. We show that after the initial cycle of collapse and fractional/full revivals, which occurs on the time scale t rev , a new sequence of revivals begins. We find that the structure of the new revivals is different from that of the fractional revivals. The new revivals are ...

We report on observations of shear Alfvén waves radiated from a source of small transverse size, and the subsequent radial confinement of wave magnetic field energy within a cylindrical plasma. The radius of confinement lies between the kinetic regime of the bulk plasma and the inertial regime at the plasma edge; this radius is found to be a function of wave frequency. Numerical calculations us...

Positronium-formation cross sections from positron-hydrogen collisions are calculated by solving a set of close-coupled, time-dependent partial differential equations. These cross sections are determined by propagating a time-evolving wave packet on a two-dimensional radial lattice and then projecting the wave function onto the stationary states of the atom. Calculations are performed through L...

We apply the recently developed adaptive non-harmonic model based on the wave-shape function, as well as the time-frequency analysis tool called synchrosqueezing transform (SST) to model and analyze oscillatory physiological signals. To demonstrate how the model and algorithm work, we apply them to study the pulse wave signal. By extracting features called the spectral pulse signature, and base...

in this paper, exp-function and (g′/g)expansion methods are presented to derive traveling wave solutions for a class of nonlinear space-time fractional differential equations. as a results, some new exact traveling wave solutions are obtained.

introduction low dose rate brachytherapy sources have been widely used for interstitial implants in tumor sites, particularly in prostate. dosimetric characteristics of a new irseed 125i brachytherapy source have been determined using the lif thermoluminescent dosimeter (tld) chips. materials and methods dose rate constant, radial dose function, and anisotropy function around the irseed 125i so...
