We developed a novel small-volume (24-L) conical-shaped isoflurane anesthesia induction chamber for use in a den chamber and tested it along with 3 conventional stand-alone induction chambers (2 clear acrylic plastic chambers and a cylindrical-shaped chamber) to determine utility for daily short-duration manipulations of captive raccoons (Procyon lotor). Although the conventional chambers were ...

We present the first, complete 230 GHz feedhorn array manufactured by direct drilling of smooth–walled horns into a single plate of aluminium. The horn design process, based on a genetic algorithm, is described and the fabrication process, via direct drilling using shaped drill bits, is presented. We present cross coupling and beam pattern measurements of a close–packed pair of the smooth–walle...

The resonant coupling of optical microcavities to waveguides is important in photonic devices. In this paper, a horn-shaped cavity structure designed on the side metal–dielectric–metal waveguide, and between waveguide simulated by finite-difference time-domain method coupled mode theory. It found that local modes appear cavity. Second, geometric parameters are changed, influence structural tran...

BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/ bcr-2015-211240 DESCRIPTION The peg-shaped conical tooth is the supernumerary tooth most commonly found in the permanent dentition. It develops with root formation ahead of or at an equivalent stage to that of the permanent incisors and usually presents as a mesiodens. Tooth...

Broadly tunable multiple high-harmonic conical beams have been generated by means of a multistep χ(2) cascade processes in a two dimensional nonlinear photonic crystal. The nonlinear structure consists of a square lattice of inverted hexagonal domains with diameters and distances between domains as low as 1 μm. The large number of reciprocal lattice vectors provided by both the squar...

We have used conical electron tomography in order to reconstruct neuronal organelles in thin sections of plastic embedded rat somato-sensory cortical tissue. The conical tilt series were collected at a 55 degrees tilt and at 5 degrees rotations, aligned using gold particles as fiduciary markers, and reconstructed using the weighted back projection algorithm. After a refinement process based on ...

The title compound, C(19)H(17)N(3)O, was prepared by the 1,4-addition reaction of 1,3-di-2-pyridylprop-2-en-1-one with aniline, and includes one chiral C atom of the methine group with an R configuration. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter-molecular N-H⋯N and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure also exhibits weak inter-molecular C-H⋯π inter-actions between a pyridyl H atom and...

background: iodine-123 (123i) is regarded as one of the best radionuclides for in vivo medical studies using single-photon emission computed tomography (spect) due to its suitable physical property. materials and methods: to design a new system in order to replace cryogenically solidified xenon target by the gas one, some necessary calculations are needed to be done such as finding the excitati...

Cassegrain Reflector Antenna Design consists of various effects caused by blockage and its effect on overall performance. The design for minimum blockage condition results in geometry that offers lower amount of blockage and increased spillover past the subreflector. To avoid this, optimized design of the antenna results in geometry that offers lower amount of spillover past the edges of the ma...
