Abstract Purpose To develop a novel MR fingerprinting sequence using optimized motion‐compensated diffusion preparations for simultaneous T1, T2, and ADC quantification of liver tissue in a single breath‐held scan. Methods A radial spoiled gradient echo acquisition with magnetization preparation modules for T1, T2, and ADC encoding is proposed.

The Jets in Micro-Quasars and Quasars: A Comparison [PDF]
AbstractThe discovery of relativistic jets in radio emitting X-ray binaries in our own galaxy has led to the term ‘microquasar’ being coined for these objects. In this paper the properties of microquasars are compared with those of quasars and radio galaxies, with the aim of trying to see how the similarities and differences can inform us about the ...

Quasars Probing Quasars. IX. The Kinematics of the Circumgalactic Medium Surrounding z ∼ 2 Quasars [PDF]
Abstract We examine the kinematics of the gas in the environments of galaxies hosting quasars at z ∼ 2. We employ 148 projected quasar pairs to study the circumgalactic gas of the foreground quasars in absorption. The sample selects foreground quasars with precise redshift measurements, using emission lines with precision ≲300 km s−1 and

Prior to the Fermi-LAT era, only two classes of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) were thought to harbor relativistic jets that radiate up to gamma-ray energies: blazars and radio galaxies. The detection of variable gamma-ray emission from Narrow Line Seyfert

Combining melting curve analysis enhances the multiplexing capability of digital PCR. Here, we developed a 14‐plex assay to simultaneously measure single nucleotide mutations and amplifications of KRAS and GNAS, which are common driver genes in pancreatic cancer precursors. This assay accurately quantified variant allele frequencies in clinical samples

The Clustering of Simulated Quasars [PDF]
We analyze the clustering properties of quasars simulated using a semianalytic model built on the Millennium Simulation, with the goal of testing scenarios in which black hole accretion and quasar activity are triggered by galaxy mergers. When we select quasars with luminosities in the range accessible by current observations, we find that predicted ...

Probing ~100 AU Intergalactic MgII Absorbing "Cloudlets" with Quasar Microlensing
Intergalactic MgII absorbers are known to have structures down to scales ~ 10^{2.5} pc, and there are now indications that they may be fragmented on scales

Is there a disc in the superluminal quasars? [PDF]
We present a new evidence of the accretion disc in active galactic nuclei, by examining the properties of the Ha emission line versus viewing angle, in a sample of superluminal (SL) quasars. Both line velocity width (FWHM) and rest equivalent width (EW) correlate with viewing angle.

EIGER. III. JWST/NIRCam Observations of the Ultraluminous High-redshift Quasar J0100+2802
We present the first rest-frame optical spectrum of a high-redshift quasar observed with JWST/NIRCam in Wide Field Slitless mode. The observed quasar, J0100+2802, is the most luminous quasar known at z > 6. We measure the mass of the central supermassive

ABSTRACT Volatile secondary metabolites in plants can serve as valuable biomarkers for the plant's health, stress response, and pest or disease detection. We have investigated the volatilome of Acer saccharum (sugar maple) leaves using two complementary extraction techniques: headspace‐solid phase micro‐extraction coupled with gas chromatography‐mass ...
