We propose a tomographic scheme to reconstruct the quantum state of a BoseEinstein condensate, exploiting the radiation field as a probe and considering the atomic internal degrees of freedom. The density matrix in the number state basis can be directly retrieved from the atom counting probabilities. PACS numbers: 03.65.Bz, 03.75.Fi, 32.80.-t

Material components for the nuclear fusion and the advanced nuclear fi ssion reactors are exposed to high levels of radiation energy, high temperature, and high thermo-mechanical stresses. Radiation damage is inherently a multiscale phenomenon, with interactions encompassing time scales from femto-seconds to years and length scales from subnanometer to meters. In this study, multiscale modeling...

Shortage and salinity of irrigation water are two major constraints that influence rapeseed production in arid and semi-arid regions of central and southern Iran. In this study, effects of deficit irrigation with different salinity levels and planting methods (in-furrow and on-ridge) as strategies for coping with water and salinity stresses on yield and yield quality of rapeseed were invest...

In 2015, the Gamma-Ray Observation of Winter Thunderstorms (GROWTH) collaboration launched a mapping observation campaign for high-energy atmospheric phenomena related to thunderstorms and lightning discharges. This has developed detection network gamma rays with up 10 radiation monitors installed in cities Kanazawa Komatsu, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, where low-charge-center winter frequently ...

Today, the specific absorption rate has become an important and necessary measurement when designing implementing any type of antenna. In recent years, various devices have appeared that use different frequencies for wireless communication systems, which are a source electromagnetic radiation. The M-slot antenna is designed in this paper to operate multi-band communications using computer simul...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the combination of certain serological markers (Forns' index; FI), FibroScan® and acoustic radiation force impulse elastography (ARFI) in the assessment of liver fibrosis in patients with hepatitis B, and to explore the impact of inflammatory activity and steatosis on the accuracy of these diagnostic methods. Eighty‑one patients who had been diagn...
