SNR‐efficient whole‐brain pseudo‐continuous arterial spin labeling perfusion imaging at 7 T
Abstract Purpose To optimize pseudo‐continuous arterial spin labeling (PCASL) parameters to maximize SNR efficiency for RF power constrained whole brain perfusion imaging at 7 T. Methods We used Bloch simulations of pulsatile laminar flow to optimize the PCASL parameters for maximum SNR efficiency, balancing labeling efficiency and total RF power.

Manifesting: New Thought Takes on New Life Among Adolescents in the COVID‐Era United States
ABSTRACT “Manifesting,” a metaphysical spiritual practice that claims that one's mind has the power to attract anything upon which it is focused, came roaring onto the social media scene in 2020, just a few months into the COVID‐19 pandemic. Google searches for the term shot up by 600% and by mid‐2024, videos related to manifestation had amassed over ...

Hesiod and Havamal : Transitions and the transmission of wisdom [PDF]
In this article I too offer a comparative analysis. However, I step away from the Near East and away from any suggestion of a chain of transmission. I aim to offer fresh insights into Hesiod's Works and Days by comparing it to the Eddic Havamal, a poem ...

Process and individuation (on speculative realism and becoming)
Abstract Recent developments in the continental tradition have taken a realist turn that reveals an oscillation between, on the one hand, an ontology of virtuality that thinks of reality as process and continuum (albeit a continuum of differences or events) and, on the other hand, the resurgence of an ontology of objects and essences guided by the ...

Weaving words: Law and performance in early Nordic tradition [PDF]
The reference to malrunar or 'speech runes' in Sigrdrifumal suggests a performative aspect to the practice of early Germanic law that transcends the swearing of oaths and the reciting of law codes attested to by literary sources.

Tracking Individual Clouds to Assess the Fidelity of High‐Resolution Modeling
Abstract Tracking individual clouds in geostationary satellite observations and numerical simulations allows to quantify cloud lifetime and development. These higher‐dimensional parameters are used in a novel approach to assess the fidelity of cloud‐resolving models.

Abstract This study investigates the impact of relative submergence, defined as the ratio of water depth to the diameter of boulders (k = H/D), on turbulence structures in flow through boulder arrays. The large‐eddy simulation method is employed to simulate flow through boulder arrays across a range of k values from 0.25 to 3.50.
