Effects of cardiac motion on dose distribution during stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation treatment: A simulation and phantom study

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Cardiac motion may degrade dose distribution during stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation using the CyberKnife system, a robotic radiosurgery system. This study evaluated the dose distribution changes using a self‐made cardiac dynamic platform that mimics cardiac motion. Methods The cardiac dynamic platform was operated with amplitudes

The Role of Meridional Flow in the Generation of Solar/Stellar Magnetic Fields and Cycles

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Meridional flow is crucial in generating the solar poloidal magnetic field by facilitating poleward transport of the field from decayed bipolar magnetic regions (BMRs).

Global-scale Simulations of Stellar Convection and their Observational Predictions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
Stars on the lower main sequence (F-type through M-type) have substantial convective envelopes beneath their stellar photospheres. Convection in these regions can couple with rotation to build global-scale structures that may be observable by interferometers that can resolve stellar disks. Here I discuss predictions emerging from 3D MHD simulations for

Evaluation of the dose reduction effect of crystalline lens exposure in cone‐beam computed tomography with bismuth eye shield for image‐guided radiation therapy: An anthropomorphic phantom study

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the dose‐exposure reduction effect of a crystalline lens with a bismuth eye shield using cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) for head image‐guided radiation therapy. The ocular surface dose of the head phantom (THRA‐1) is defined as a crystalline lens exposure dose and is measured using a radiophotoluminescence ...

Modeling the Progenitor Stars of Observed Type IIP Supernovae

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Type IIP supernovae (SNe IIP) are thought to originate from the explosion of massive stars >10 M _⊙ . Their luminosity is primarily powered by the explosion energy and the radioactive decay energy of ^56 Co, with the photosphere location regulated by ...

Stellar Evolution with Rotation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The existing grids of star models without rotation allow us to already explain a number of properties of massive and WR stars (cf. Maeder and Conti,1994). In particular, the sequences of star clusters are well reproduced, as well as the relations of filiation between the various kinds of massive stars: O-type stars, blue-and red-supergiants, Wolf-Rayet

From 2D to 3D gamma passing rate tolerance and action limits for patient‐specific quality assurance in volumetric‐modulated arc therapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) requires an accurate patient‐specific quality assurance (PSQA) program. In clinical practice, this is usually performed using the γ‐index and the two‐dimensional gamma passing rate (2D %GP). A three‐dimensional (3D) index incorporating the patient anatomy could be more useful for the 3D dose ...
