Long-term survival after definitive proton beam therapy for oligorecurrent esophageal squamous cell carcinoma: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2022
Background Radical esophagectomy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma has improved survival, but the rate of recurrence is high. Patients of recurrent esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after failure of chemotherapy have a poor prognosis.

Proton–proton, anti-proton–anti-proton, proton–anti-proton correlations in Au + Au collisions measured by STAR at RHIC [PDF]

The European Physical Journal C, 2006
The analysis of two-particle correlations provides a powerful tool to study the properties of hot and dense matter created in heavy-ion collisions at ultra-relativistic energies. Applied to identical and non-identical hadron pairs, it makes the study of space-time evolution of the source in femtoscopic scale possible.
