A small footprint couch‐top support device for image‐guided radiotherapy of heavy patients
Abstract Purpose Patients with body weights close to or above 400 lbs present unique challenges in radiation therapy since the weight limit of most treatment couches decreases as the couch‐top extends toward the treatment gantry. The purpose of this work was to develop a small footprint couch‐top support platform to safely perform image‐guided ...

Analysis of cellular responses of macrophages to zinc ions and zinc oxide nanoparticles: a combined targeted and proteomic approach [PDF]
Two different zinc oxide nanoparticles, as well as zinc ions, are used to study the cellular responses of the RAW 264 macrophage cell line. A proteomic screen is used to provide a wide view of the molecular effects of zinc, and the most prominent results are cross-validated by targeted studies.

Low-energy structures of zinc borohydride Zn(BH$_4$)$_2$ [PDF]
We present a systematic study of the low-energy structures of zinc borohydride, a crystalline material proposed for the hydrogen storage purpose. In addition to the previously proposed structures, many new low-energy structures of zinc borohydride are found by utilizing the minima-hopping method.
