Extreme X Rays Probe Extreme Matter
It takes a strong electric field to ionize atoms or ions in the creation of plasmas. These fields can be generated in lightning bolts (electric discharges), neon light bulbs, at the focus of a laser, and in the path of particle beams. It is perhaps less obvious that plasma itself can also have sufficiently strong fields within it to further ionize ions, since one might expect equal amounts of p...
متن کاملSynaptophysin-Positive Neurons in External And Extreme Capsules in Human Brain
Purpose: Externaland extreme capsules are parts of cerebral white matter, and accordingto the classic knowledge they must have no neuronal cell bodies.This researchis designedto find neurons in the external and extreme capsules, and to determine that these neurons are functional or aberrant. Materitais and Methods: Ten adult normal human brains from both sexes were studied using 15,µm serial c...
متن کاملThe Origin of Soft X-rays in Dq Herculis
DQ Herculis (Nova Herculis 1934) is a deeply eclipsing cataclysmic variable containing a magnetic white dwarf primary. The accretion disk is thought to block our line of sight to the white dwarf at all orbital phases because of its extreme inclination angle. Nevertheless, soft X-rays were detected from DQ Her with the ROSAT PSPC. To probe the origin of these soft X-rays, we have performedChandr...
متن کاملUltrahigh-Energy-Resolution Inelastic X-Ray Scattering
Very-high-energy-resolution measurements using X-rays can be achieved by extreme backreflection (Bragg angle close to 90°) f rom perfect crystals. This technique allowed the development of the instrument INELAX for inelastic scattering experiments at the HARWI wiggler at DORIS, DESY Hamburg. Recently, a high energy resolution of 9 meV could be achieved, and the instrument proved to be an excell...
متن کاملLong-term Changes in Extreme Air Pollution Meteorology and the Implications for Air Quality
Extreme air pollution meteorological events, such as heat waves, temperature inversions and atmospheric stagnation episodes, can significantly affect air quality. Based on observational data, we have analyzed the long-term evolution of extreme air pollution meteorology on the global scale and their potential impacts on air quality, especially the high pollution episodes. We have identified sign...
