Microbeam radiation therapy.
It is proposed to carry out radiotherapy and radiosurgery for brain lesions by crossfiring an array of parallel, closely spaced microbeams of synchrotron-generated x rays several times through an isocentric target, each microbeam in the array having an approximately 25-microns-wide adjustable-height rectangular cross section. The following inferences from the known tissue sparing of 22-MeV deut...
متن کاملA path following interior-point algorithm for semidefinite optimization problem based on new kernel function
In this paper, we deal to obtain some new complexity results for solving semidefinite optimization (SDO) problem by interior-point methods (IPMs). We define a new proximity function for the SDO by a new kernel function. Furthermore we formulate an algorithm for a primal dual interior-point method (IPM) for the SDO by using the proximity function and give its complexity analysis, and then we sho...
متن کاملAn Interior Point Algorithm for Solving Convex Quadratic Semidefinite Optimization Problems Using a New Kernel Function
In this paper, we consider convex quadratic semidefinite optimization problems and provide a primal-dual Interior Point Method (IPM) based on a new kernel function with a trigonometric barrier term. Iteration complexity of the algorithm is analyzed using some easy to check and mild conditions. Although our proposed kernel function is neither a Self-Regular (SR) fun...

متن کاملPoint-kernel Method for Radiation Fields Simulation
Design and maintenance of nuclear cycle facilities mandatory imply implementation of efficient radiation protection. Radiation environment assessment and shielding optimization require a considerable amount of numerical calculations. Nowadays mathematical modelling methods and corresponding software are widely used for such kind of problems. All the software used for radiation fields modelling ...
