Local Resistance to Spontaneous Mouse Cancer Induced by X-rays

Autografts from spontaneous cancers of mice when replanted into areas previously exposed to an erythema dose of x-rays, failed to grow in the majority of instances (71.4 per cent), while similar grafts inoculated into untreated areas grew in a large proportion of the animals (83.6 per cent). Autografts of spontaneous cancer, established and growing in the skin, disappeared in 76 per cent of ani...

Ultrasound-Induced Gradient Crystals Observed by High-Energy X-rays

High-energy X-ray scattering (90 keV) has been performed at the high-energy beamline ID15 at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, Grenoble, on perfect Si crystals excited by compressional ultrasound waves in the [111] direction. Two-dimensional intensity maps of the 351 Bragg peak reveal a purely longitudinal distortion of the lattice with respect to the applied distortion field, which ...

Electromagnetically induced transparency for x rays.

Electromagnetically induced transparency is predicted for x rays in laser-dressed neon gas. The x-ray photoabsorption cross section and polarizability near the Ne K edge are calculated using an ab initio theory suitable for optical strong-field problems. The laser wavelength is tuned close to the transition between 1s(-1)3s and 1s(-1)3p approximately 800 nm). The minimum laser intensity require...
