Physics: Einstein's curve ball

Highlights of Crystal Ball Physics

Differential and total cross sections are presented for π −-and K −-induced reactions on a proton target leading to all-neutral final states. Also shown are rates for rare and upper limits for forbidden eta-meson decays to test Chiral Perturbation Theory, the π 0 π 0 interactions and C and CP invariance.

Einsteins' role in clinical research

Scientific research is a systematic process aimed to build knowledge through a set of structured evaluations, thus generating the development of both the individual that performs research and the society in which it is developed. The objective of research is to produce knowledge, possibly applicable inside and outside researchersénvironments, and perhaps generate practical actions. Research met...

Developing a General algorithm for Ball Curve with GC2

This paper dwells in developing a general algorithm for constructing a piecewise Ball Curve with curvature continuity (GC). The proposed algorithm requires GC data in which the designer must define unit tangent vectors and signed curvatures at each interpolating points. As a numerical example, a vase is constructed using GC piecewise Ball Curve.

High b-value Acquisition using CURVE-ball DTI

Overview: The characteristics of water diffusion parallel and perpendicular to white matter tracts are a sensitive indicator of tissue microstructure and cannot be fully determined from single b-value DTI. In order to obtain singleor two-tensor DTI data with multiple b-values and acceptable SNR in clinically reasonable times, a new data acquisition strategy is proposed – CURVE-ball DTI (CUbe Ra...
