For a partially coherent Laguerre–Gaussian (PCLG) vortex beam, information regarding the topological charge (TC) is concealed in cross-spectral density (CSD) function phase. Herein, flexible method for simultaneous determination of sign and magnitude TC PCLG beam proposed based on measured CSD amplitude phase after propagates through dual cylindrical lens with adjustable angles. Both stripes ex...

Structure The radionuclide 99mTchas nearly ideal physical characteristics for imaging and is presently being used as a label for numerous radiopharmaceuticals. Consequently, most of the major organ systems have been studied with the aid of this radionuclide. One of the most recent to be considered is the skeletal system as reported by Subramanian and coworkers who labeled inorganic polyphosphat...

Thermoelectric figure-of-merits (ZT) are enhanced or degraded by crystal defects such as twins and excess atoms that are correlated with thermal conductivity (k) and carrier concentration (n). For Bi2Te3, it is unclear whether the crystal defects can enhance ZT without a degradation in the thermopower factor. In the present study, n-type Bi2Te3 nanowires (NWs) are electrochemically synthesized ...

UNLABELLED Annexin A5 is a phospholipid binding protein with high affinity for phosphatidyl-serine, which is externalized by cells undergoing programmed cell death. An increased programmed cell death rate has been reported in the heart after myocardial infarction (MI). The aim of this study was to correctly localize annexin A5 uptake in vivo and to determine the area at risk in humans with acut...

BACKGROUND The causative agent of Chagas disease, Trypanosoma cruzi, is divided into 6 Discrete Typing Units (DTU): Tc I, IIa, IIb, IIc, IId and IIe. In order to assess the relative pathogenicities of different DTUs, blood samples from three different clinical groups of chronic Chagas disease patients (indeterminate, cardiac, megacolon) from Bolivia were analyzed for their circulating parasites...

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) is a transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome which results in an acute, reversible, left ventricular dysfunction. Unlike a myocardial ischemia, TC is not due to coronary artery stenosis. Initially the syndrome was described by a series of five Japanese patients in 1991 [1] and there have been multiple subsequent reports. The syndrome received its name...

One of the few phenomenologically viable technicolor (TC) scenarios are models that incorporate the GIM mechanism (TC-GIM). A large value of the top quark mass requires that the scale of extended-technicolor interactions is not much larger than 1 TeV. In many TC scenarios, this leads to unacceptably large flavor-changing neutral currents. Viable models should not violate the custodial SU(2) sym...

Abstract Tetracycline (TC) is widely used in the livestock industry, but undigested TC excreted with waste and accumulates environment. In this study, swine manure-derived biochar (SBC) was modified KMnO4 (MnOx-SBC), to remove TC. SEM-EDS, FTIR, XPS elemental analysis all indicated that ultrafine MnOx particles were attached surface. The surface properties composition of oxygen-containing funct...

Abstract For the first time, basing both on experimental facts and our theoretical consideration, we show that Fermi systems with flat bands should be tuned superconducting state. Experimental measurements magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene of velocity VF as a function temperature Tc superconduction phase transition have revealed ∝ 1⁄Ns(0), where Ns(0) is density states at level. We high-Tc com...
