World-volume action for fractional branes [PDF]
We study the world volume action of fractional Dp-branes of type IIA string theory compactified on the orbifold T^4/Z_2. The geometric relation between these branes and wrapped branes is investigated using conformal techniques. In particular we examine in detail various scattering amplitudes and find that the leading low-energy interactions are ...

Synthetic Myocardial Extracellular Volume Fraction
Myocardial extracellular volume fraction (ECV) assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) estimates the proportion of myocardial extracellular space relative to its cellular component. Conventionally, ECV calculation requires knowledge of the patient’s hematocrit (Hct). Treibel et al. [(1)][1]
