Fast simulation of the influence of a refractive free-form microstructure on a wave field based on scalar diffraction theory

open access: yesJournal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications
We present a novel fast simulation approach to simulate the influence of refractive freeform microstructures on a wave field. The FRISP (Finite Refractive Index Selective Propagation) method combines the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld diffraction integral with a ...

The Interest in Nanomaterials for Topical Photoprotection

open access: yesCosmetics, 2015
Wearing clothes and using sun protection products are effective ways of preventing non-melanocytic skin cancer. Sun protection products are classified as cosmetics in Europe.

Source-lens clustering and intrinsic-alignment bias of weak-lensing estimators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We estimate the amplitude of the source-lens clustering bias and of the intrinsic-alignment bias of weak lensing estimators of the two-point and three-point convergence and cosmic-shear correlation functions.

Tumor mutational burden as a determinant of metastatic dissemination patterns

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic data to elucidate whether metastasis in certain organs share genetic characteristics regardless of cancer type. No robust mutational patterns were identified across different metastatic locations and cancer types.

Overview of Skin Whitening Agents: Drugs and Cosmetic Products

open access: yesCosmetics, 2016
Depigmentation and skin lightening products, which have been in use for ages in Asian countries where skin whiteness is a major esthetic criterion, are now also highly valued by Western populations, who expose themselves excessively to the sun and ...

Responsibility for implicit bias [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Research programs in empirical psychology from the past two decades have revealed implicit biases. Although implicit processes are pervasive, unavoidable, and often useful aspects of our cognitions, they may also lead us into error.

Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...

Laser-tracker-based reference measurement for geometric calibration of phase-measuring deflectometry with active display registration [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sensors and Sensor Systems
Phase-measuring deflectometry (PMD) with active display registration (ADR) is a ray-optics-based technique for the shape measurement of specular surfaces.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Effects of Short-Term Laser Beam Heating on the Absorptivity of Steel Sheets

open access: yesJournal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing, 2019
The efficiency of laser beam processes basically depends on the efficiency of the laser beam source and the efficiency of the irradiated material’s energy absorption. This absorptivity can be influenced by the surface condition.
