Low Spin-Axis Variations of Circumbinary Planets [PDF]
Having a massive moon has been considered as a primary mechanism for stabilized planetary obliquity, an example of which being our Earth. This is, however, not always consistent with the exoplanetary cases. This article details the discovery of an alternative mechanism, namely that planets orbiting around binary stars tend to have low spin-axis ...

Monte Carlo Simulation of CRAND Protons Trapped at Low Earth Orbits [PDF]
The Cosmic Ray Albedo Neutron Decay (CRAND) is believed to be the principal mechanism for the formation of inner proton radiation belt -- at least for relatively higher energy particles. We implement this mechanism in a Monte Carlo simulation procedure to calculate the trapped proton radiation at the low Earth orbits, through event-by-event interaction

Semi‐supervised classification of fundus images combined with CNN and GCN
Abstract Purpose Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most serious complications of diabetes, which is a kind of fundus lesion with specific changes. Early diagnosis of DR can effectively reduce the visual damage caused by DR. Due to the variety and different morphology of DR lesions, automatic classification of fundus images in mass screening can ...

Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) Satellite and Orbital Decay
In this article we present a simple but elegant numerical calculation to study the motion of a low earth orbiting (LEO) satellite in gravitational potential and under the influence of quadratic drag force. We solve a set of coupled differential equations to calculate the instantaneous position and velocity of the satellite and calculate the change in ...

Abstract Positron emission tomography with x‐ray computed tomography (PET/CT) is increasingly being utilized for radiation treatment planning (RTP). Accurate delivery of RT therefore depends on quality PET/CT data. This study covers quality control (QC) procedures required for PET/CT for diagnostic imaging and incremental QC required for RTP.

Treatment planning with a 2.5 MV photon beam for radiation therapy
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.
