Treatment planning with a 2.5 MV photon beam for radiation therapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Purpose The shallow depth of maximum dose and higher dose fall‐off gradient of a 2.5 MV beam along the central axis that is available for imaging on linear accelerators is investigated for treatment of shallow tumors and sparing the organs at risk (OARs) beyond it.

Volume staging for arteriovenous malformation SRS treatment using VMAT

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Volume staging involves dividing the target volume into smaller parts and treating each part separately. In this study, the feasibility of volume‐staged stereotactic radiosurgery (VS‐SRS) on a linear accelerator using volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and a frameless patient positioning system is investigated.

Galactic halos as boson stars [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 1996
We investigate the boson star with the self-interacting scalar field as a model of galactic halos. The model has slightly increasing rotation curves and allows wider ranges of the mass($m$) and coupling($ $) of the halo dark matter particle than the non-interacting model previously suggested(ref.\cite{sin1}). Two quantities are related by $ ^{\frac{1}

Point-source Contribution to the Diffuse X-Ray Background below 1 keV and Its Effect on Our Understanding of the Circumgalactic Medium

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We studied the spectral signature of different components of the diffuse X-ray background (DXB), including Local Hot Bubble, solar wind charge exchange, galactic halo, and typically unresolved point sources (galaxies and active galactic nuclei), in the ...

Gravitational microlensing and the galactic halo [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 1996
By means of extensive galactic modeling we study the implications of the more than eighty microlensing events that have now been observed for the composition of the dark halo of the Galaxy, as well as for other properties of the Galaxy. We take the Galaxy to be comprised of luminous and dark disk components, a bulge, and a dark halo consisting of both ...

On the disc and halo of the milky way through a study of star clusters [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2000
The subject is the metallicity and the correlation between the metallicity and spatial distribution of star clusters of the Milky Way. The open star clusters are confirmed as good indicators for the population of the galactic disc, whereas the globular ...

Magnetic Fields in Galactic Haloes [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2011
Magnetic fields on a range of scales play a large role in the ecosystems of galaxies, both in the galactic disk and in the extended layers of gas away from the plane. Observing magnetic field strength, structure and orientation is complex, and necessarily indirect.

Vertical Density Distribution of the Galaxy from Star Count Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2002
The five space density distribution D(z) with distance perpendicular to the Galactic plane were combined. The scale heights and the local densities at z = 0 of the thin disk, thick disk, and the halo components were estimated from the nonlinear least ...

On the Nature of the Galactic Halo [PDF]

open access: yesReviews of Modern Physics, 1958
In 1952 it was shown by one of us that the sources of galactic nonthermal radio emission form a nearly spherical system concentrating toward the plane and the center of the galaxy. It was pointed out independently by the other author that the field between the clouds must be sufficiently strong to retain the cosmic rays in the galaxy.

The Galactic X-ray Halo [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1997
AbstractWe analyzed the soft X-ray background (SXRB) source intensity distribution of the ¾ keV and ¼ keV photons by correlating the public ROSAT PSPC All-Sky Survey data with the new Leiden/Dwingeloo HI Survey. We found that the ¾ keV and ¼ keV distant background source intensity distribution can be modelled by an isothermal (T = 1.5.106 K) disk-like (
