Non-Equilibrium Ablation of Phenolic Impregnated Carbon Ablator [PDF]
48th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting Including the New Horizons Forum and Aerospace Exposition, 2010 In previous work, an equilibrium ablation and thermal response model for Phenolic Impregnated Carbon Ablator was developed. In general, over a wide range of test conditions, model predictions compared well with arcjet data for surface recession, surface temperature, in-depth temperature at multiple thermocouples, and char depth.

To ablate or not to ablate? HSCs in the T cell driver’s seat [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2007 The combination of the induction of lymphopenia and vaccination and/or T cell transfer is garnering much attention for cancer treatment. Preclinical studies have shown that the induction of lymphopenia by chemotherapy or radiation can enhance the antitumor efficacy of several distinct, cell-based immunotherapeutic approaches.

Early Repolarization Syndrome: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approach
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018 An early repolarization pattern can be observed in 1% up to 13% of the overall population. Whereas, this pattern was associated with a benign outcome for many years, several more recent studies demonstrated an association between early repolarization and
