introdouction: dentinal hypersensitivity (dh) is one of the most painful chronic problems reported in dental offices. various methods have been applied for the treatment of dh. however, majority of them are either ineffective or last for a short period of time. it has been reported that lasers, particularly neodymium- doped: yttrium aluminum garnet laser (nd: yag), can be helpful in the treatme...

water contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons has harmful effects on health, economy and environment. in this study, photolysis process for treating petroleum hydrocarbons was investigated. hence different initial cods with different uv-c radiation power were examined. based on the energy consumption per unit of cod removed, cod of 350 mg/l and radiation power of 80 w were chosen as the optimu...

introduction:                                                                             the erroneous move towards the modern lifestyles has led to uncontrolled population growth, urbanization, disorderly expansion of cities to natural habitats and ecosystems, destruction of traditional rural communities and farm lands, indiscriminate utilization and destruction of natural resources, growth o...

Introduction: In radiation therapy, knowing the dose rates to healthy organs and tumors is beneficial, and thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) allows for this possibility. This study was aimed at determining the dose-response differences of TLDs in various types of radiation, energy levels, and dose rate calibrated with other types of radiation beams and energy and dose levels. Materials and Meth...

Spectroscopic studies of two beta rays from 100Mo are shown to be of potential interest for investigating both the Majorana nu mass by neutrinoless double beta decay (0nubetabeta) and low energy solar nu's by inverse beta decay. With a multiton 100Mo detector, coincidence studies of correlated betabeta from 0nubetabeta, together with the large Q value ( Q(betabeta)), permit identification of th...

The conservation of energy implies that an isolated radiating black hole cannot have an emission spectrum that is precisely thermal. Moreover, the no-hair theorem is only approximately applicable. We consider the implications for the black hole information puzzle. b

We calculate the distribution of transverse energy, QΩ, radiated into an arbitrary interjet angular region, Ω, in high-pT two-jet events. We find a distribution that can be extrapolated smoothly to QΩ = ΛQCD, where it vanishes. This method provides a class of predictions on transverse energy radiated between jets, as a function of jet energy and rapidity, and of the choice of the region Ω in wh...
