Degeneracy Effects of Energy loss Straggling of Homo and Hetero Di-Cluster Ions
Al-Mustansiriyah Journal of Science, 2021 The energy loss straggling is obtained from an exact quantum mechanical evaluation, which takes into account the degeneracy of the target plasma, and later it is compared with common classical and degeneracy approximation as a function of incident Homo ...

Femoral vessel injury by a nonlethal weapon projectile
Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2018 Rubber projectiles are used as an alternative to metal bullets owing to their lower morbidity and mortality rate. There are few reports of vascular lesions of extremities caused by rubber projectiles in the literature. The authors report the case of a 37-
