Structured beams invariant to coherent diffusion [PDF]
Optics Express, 2020 Bessel beams are renowned members of a wide family of non-diffracting (propagation-invariant) fields. We report on experiments showing that non-diffracting fields are also immune to diffusion. We map the phase and magnitude of structured laser fields onto the spatial coherence between two internal states of warm atoms undergoing diffusion.

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Purpose The aim of this work was to evaluate the SunCHECK PerFRACTION, the software for in vivo monitoring using EPID images. Materials/Methods First, the PerFRACTION ability to detect errors was investigated simulating two situations: (1) variation of LINAC output and (2) variation of the phantom thickness.

A nonlinear beam model of photomotile structures [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020 Significance Actuation and propulsion are significant challenges in soft robotics. Supply of power typically requires a cumbersome tether or heavy onboard power source. Further, one typically needs to reset the system. Using theory and numerical simulations, we show, in this work, that this challenge can be overcome by the use of ...

Characterizing ultra-low emittance electron beams using structured light fields [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Accel. Beams 24 (2021) 012803, 2020 Novel schemes for generating ultra-low emittance electron beams have been developed in the last years and promise compact particle sources with excellent beam quality suitable for future high-energy physics experiments and free-electron lasers. Current methods for the characterization of low emittance electron beams such as pepperpot measurements or ...

Structural Damping with Friction Beams [PDF]
Shock and Vibration, 2007 In the last several years, there has been increasing interest in the use of friction joints for enhancing damping in structures. The joints themselves are responsible for the major part of the energy dissipation in assembled structures. The dissipated work in a joint depends on both the applied normal force and the excitation force.

Buckling of Planar Micro-Structured Beams [PDF]
Applied Sciences, 2020 In this paper, a Timoshenko beam model is formulated for buckling analysis of periodic micro-structured beams, uniformly compressed. These are planar grid beams, whose micro-structure consists of a square lattice of equal fibers, modeled as Timoshenko micro-beams.
