Four of nine exoplanets found by microlensing were detected by the resonant caustic, which represents the merging of the planetary and central caustics at the position when the projected separation of a host star and a bounded planet is s ∼ 1. One of the resonant caustic lensing events, OGLE-2005-BLG-169, was a caustic-crossing highmagnification event with Amax ∼ 800 and the source star was muc...

BACKGROUND Discrimination between neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions is crucial in colorectal cancer screening. Application of narrow-band imaging (NBI) in colonoscopy visualises mucosal vascular networks in neoplastic lesions and may improve diagnostic accuracy. AIM To compare the diagnostic efficacy of NBI in differentiating neoplastic from non-neoplastic colorectal lesions with diagnost...

Background: Loupes represent a type of magnification and their use can promote higher quality on dental treatment. Besides those advantages magnification can be beneficial for musculoskeletal health maintenance on dental professionals. Aim: This study intends to review the literature in order to verify what has been studied regarding the influence of magnification on work posture of dentists. M...

The magnification factor for the steady-state response of a SDOF system under harmonic loading is described in many structural dynamics textbooks; the well known analytical solution is easily obtained from the solution to the damped equation of motion for harmonic loading. The complete and steady state solutions can differ significantly. An analytical expression for the maximum response to the ...
