Slanted hole array beam profiler (SHArP)—a high-resolution portable beam profiler based on a linear aperture array [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We demonstrate a novel high-resolution portable beam profiler based on a slanted linear array of small apertures, termed a slanted hole array beam profiler (SHArP). The apertures are directly fabricated on a metal-coated CMOS imaging sensor.

Recurrent Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis: A Discrete Clinical Entity

open access: yesInternational Journal of Nephrology, 2012
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis refers to a set of particular histopathologic lesions in which steroid-resistant podocyte injury leads to patchy adhesions between the glomerular tuft and Bowman's capsule, followed by progressive glomerulosclerosis and

Entanglement, intractability and no-signaling

open access: yes, 2010
We consider the problem of deriving the no-signaling condition from the assumption that, as seen from a complexity theoretic perspective, the universe is not an exponential place.
