Refraction in radioastronomy [PDF]
In the last few years there was no paper in the astronomical literature reporting on new measurements of radioastronomical refraction. But there are some important review papers on different aspects of this topic, e.g. on the ionosphere by M.M. Komesaroff (1960) and T.

Negative refraction and subwavelength focusing in two-dimensional photonic crystals [PDF]
Chapter 6We experimentally and theoretically demonstrate negative refraction and focusing on electromagnetic (EM) waves by using two-dimensional photonic crystal slabs at microwave frequencies. Negative refraction is observed both for transverse magnetic

Tumour‐proximal deep serum proteomics identifies biomarkers associated with ovarian cancer
New biomarkers are needed for early ovarian cancer detection. Ovarian (tumour‐proximal) and peripheral vein serum from healthy women and patients with benign or malignant tumours underwent nanoparticle‐enriched deep proteomics. Ovarian serum yielded more protein identifications and revealed tumour‐reflective signatures.

Cooperative role of MDSCs and Tregs in alum-induced alloimmune tolerance in corneal transplantation
Alum, a widely used adjuvant, has recently been recognized for its capacity to modulate immune responses beyond classical activation. In this study, we investigated whether alum-induced expansion of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and their ...

The effect of muzzle blast wave on light screen in external ballistic measurement
IntroductionIn measuring initial velocity, light screen detectors (LSD) are positioned closer to the muzzle. The light screen of the LSD can be affected by the muzzle blast wave (MBW), resulting in an inaccurate initial velocity.MethodsA method for ...

Refractive Status of Mountain Aborigine Schoolchildren in Southern Taiwan
Myopia is an epidemic health problem in Taiwan's schoolchildren. The prevalence of myopia has been increasing yearly, and the average age at which myopia develops has also become younger.
