An “Airy” Image
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 30-year-old man presented with headache, vomiting, altered sensorium and seizures. There was no history of trauma or surgery. On examination, he was unconscious with signs of meningeal irritation and asymmetrical pupils. Computed tomography (CT) scan of brain revealed pneumocephalus. He died immediately after the CT scan. He was later found to be immunocompetent. Computed tomography scan (figures 1 and 2) showed moderate dilatation of lateral ventricles with intraventricular air pockets, small bilateral intracranial air pockets in the sulci. The CT features were suggestive of meningitis with ventriculitis. Figure 1: Computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain. Arrows show moderate dilatation of lateral ventricles with intraventricu-lar air pockets as well as small bilateral intracranial air pockets in the sulci. Figure 2: Computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain. Arrows show intraventricular air pockets and small intracranial air pockets in the sulci.

Enhancement of image quality and imaging depth with Airy light-sheet microscopy in cleared and non-cleared neural tissue
We have investigated the effect of Airy illumination on the image quality and depth penetration of digitally scanned light-sheet microscopy in turbid neural tissue. We used Fourier analysis of images acquired using Gaussian and Airy light-sheets to assess their respective image quality versus penetration into the tissue. We observed a three-fold average improvement in image quality at 50 μm dep...
متن کاملPropagation of time-truncated Airy-type pulses in media with quadratic and cubic dispersion.
In this paper, we describe analytically the propagation of Airy-type pulses truncated by a finite-time aperture when second- and third-order dispersion effects are considered. The mathematical method presented here, which is based on the superposition of exponentially truncated Airy pulses, is very effective and allows us to avoid the use of time-consuming numerical simulations. We analyze the ...
متن کاملProperties of Airy-Gauss Beams in the Fractional Fourier Transform Plane
An analytical expression of an Airy-Gauss beam passing through a fractional Fourier transform (FRFT) system is derived. The normalized intensity distribution, phase distribution, centre of gravity, effective beam size, linear momentum, and kurtosis parameter of the Airy-Gauss beam are demonstrated in FRFT plane, respectively. The influence of the fractional order p on the normalized intensity d...
متن کاملThe location of Airy-0, the Mars primemeridian reference, from stereo photogrammetric processing of THEMIS IR imaging and digital elevation data
The small crater Airy-0 was selected from Mariner 9 images to be the reference for the Mars prime meridian. Initial analyses in the year 2000 tied Viking Orbiter and Mars Orbiter Camera images of Airy-0 to the evolving Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter global digital terrain model to update the location of Airy-0. Based upon this tie and radiometric tracking of landers/rovers from Earth, new express...
متن کاملReflection and refraction of an Airy beam at a dielectric interface.
Reflection and refraction of a finite-power Airy beam at the interface between two dielectric media are investigated analytically and numerically. The formulation takes into account the paraxial nature of the optical beams to derive convenient field evolution equations in coordinate frames moving along Snell's refraction and reflection axes. Through numerical simulations, the self-accelerating ...
