Strongly Balanced Four Bowtie Systems

چکیده
A k-bowtie is the graph consisting of two cycles of lenght k, having exactly one vertex in common. A k-bowtie system of order v is a pair (X,B), where X is a finite set of v vertices and B is a collection of edge disjoint k-bowties (called blocks) which partitions the edge set of the complete graph Kn, defined in X. In this paper we study 4-bowtie systems. We determine the spectrum of all types of balanced 4-bowtie systems. Mathematics Subject Classification: 05B05

Balanced Quatrefoil Decomposition of Complete Multigraphs
Definition. Let Kn denote the complete graph of n vertices. The complete multigraph λKn is the complete graph Kn in which every edge is taken λ times. The t-foil (or the t-windmill) is a graph of t edge-disjoint K3’s with a common vertex and the common vertex is called the center of the t-foil. In particular, the 2-foil, the 3-foil, and the 4-foil are called the bowtie, the trefoil, and the qua...
متن کاملDynamic Bowtie Filter for Cone-Beam/Multi-Slice CT
A pre-patient attenuator ("bowtie filter" or "bowtie") is used to modulate an incoming x-ray beam as a function of the angle of the x-ray with respect to a patient to balance the photon flux on a detector array. While the current dynamic bowtie design is focused on fan-beam geometry, in this study we propose a methodology for dynamic bowtie design in multi-slice/cone-beam geometry. The proposed...

متن کاملThe influence of the bow tie filtration on the dose and image quality for the Elekta XVI coneBeam CT
Introduction Cone Beam Computer Tomography (CBCT) is used to control the position of the patient based on internal body structures. Thereby, the CBCT data set is fitted to the planning CT image. The accuracy of this alignment process strongly depends on the quality of the CBCT images. The radiotherapy department of the cantonal hospital St.Gallen operates two Elekta Synergy linacs equipped with...
متن کاملA TLD based method to estimate bowtie filter shape in PET/CT
Background: In CT systems, the machine utilizes a bowtie filter to shape the X-ray beam and remove lower energy photons. The shape of this bowtie filter is complicated and its geometry is often not available in detail. These renders the CT dose index (CTDI) to have different values in measurement versus Monte Carlo simulation studies and other analytical calculations especially in dosimetry of ...
