Evaluation of the effect of metal stents on dose perturbation in the carbon beam irradiation field
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Propose Carbon ion therapy is indicated for cases in which stents have been inserted, such as bile ducts, but the effect of metal stents on carbon ion therapy is unclear. In this study, the dose perturbation of carbon ion therapy caused by metallic bile duct stents was evaluated by dosimetry. Materials and methods Five different types of metal

Daily Middle-Term Probabilistic Forecasting of Power Consumption in North-East England [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Probabilistic forecasting of power consumption in a middle-term horizon (months to a year) is a main challenge in the energy sector. It plays a key role in planning future generation plants and transmission grid. We propose a new model that incorporates trend and seasonality features as in traditional time-series analysis and weather conditions as ...

Accounting for TLD response to CBCT protocols in external beam radiotherapy dose monitoring
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose LiF thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) are commonly used in radiation therapy to verify the delivered dose. Examples include dose verification for complicated treatment setups or cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs). TLDs may be present for both the pre‐treatment imaging kilovoltage (kV) beam and the megavoltage (MV ...

Valley Phase Transition in Si MOSFETs [PDF]
arXiv, 1997 We draw attention to the past literature on valley phase transition in Si(100) MOSFETs. The recent experiments performed by Kravchenko and co-workers indicating metal-insulator transition in Si MOSFETs are also in accord with the valley phase transition mechanism.
