Advantages and limitations of navigation‐based multicriteria optimization (MCO) in selectively sparing pharyngeal constrictor muscles in head and neck radiotherapy treatment planning

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Sparing pharyngeal constrictor muscles (PCMs) during radiotherapy improves patient‐reported swallowing function. This study aimed to explore the feasibility of integrating knowledge‐based planning (KBP) with multicriteria optimization (MCO) in Eclipse v18.0 to selectively spare PCM, quantify the required trade‐off in prophylactic ...

The expediency of remote location from an injection well of water shut-off material in a high-permeability sublayer

open access: yesGeoresursy
The paper investigates the expediency of placement a water shut-off material in a high-permeability watered sublayer away from the injection well. This scenario of location the blocking agent with complex rheological properties in a reservoir requires ...

On the weakness of disc models in bright ULXs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
It is sometimes suggested that phenomenological power-law plus cool disc-blackbody models represent the simplest, most robust interpretation of the X-ray spectra of bright ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs); this has been taken as evidence for the ...

The edge visualization metric: Quantifying the improvement of lung SBRT target definition with 4D CBCT

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Four‐dimensional cone‐beam CT (4D CBCT) incorporates oversampling of 3D data to reconstruct multi‐phase CBCT data sets representing distinct phases of the breathing cycle based on a diaphragmatic correlate of respiratory motion. Motion artifacts and blurring can be reduced relative to three‐dimensional cone‐beam (3D CBCT), allowing ...

Anti-correlated Soft Lags in the Intermediate State of Black Hole Source GX 339-4

open access: yes, 2010
We report the few hundred second anti-correlated soft lags between soft and hard energy bands in the source GX 339-4 using RXTE observations. In one observation, anti-correlated soft lags were observed using the ISGRI/INTEGRAL hard energy band and the ...

The soft power–soft disempowerment nexus: the case of Qatar

open access: yesInternational Affairs, 2018
There are four areas in which soft power is open to critical scrutiny. First, research has centred on large and/or developed nations, notably in North America, Europe, east Asia and the BRICs.

Enhanced analysis of gating latency in 0.35T MR‐linac through innovative time synchronization of a motion phantom and plastic scintillation detector

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aims to evaluate how different gantry angles, breathing rates (BPM), cine image speeds, and tracking algorithms affect beam on/off latency and the subsequent impact on target dose for a 0.35T MR‐Linac with a 6 MV FFF beam.

Lowering the sound transmission loss of impedance-matching structures: Data-driven optimization assisted with a priori knowledge

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2023
Impedance-matching structures (IMSs) with low sound transmission loss (TL) are of great importance in engineering applications. Due to the limitations of the traditional research methods, the designs of the IMSs were usually empirically guided, e.g ...
