The unitarity regime of the BCS-BEC crossover can be realized by diluting a system of two-component lattice fermions with an on-site attractive interaction. We perform a systematic-error-free finite-temperature simulation of this system by diagrammatic determinant Monte Carlo method. The critical temperature in units of Fermi energy is found to be T(C)/epsilonF=0.152(7). We also report the beha...

Abstract Quantum thermodynamics has emerged as a separate sub-discipline, revising the concepts and laws of thermodynamics, at quantum scale. In particular, there been disruptive shift in way thermometry, thermometers are perceived designed. Currently, we face two major challenges thermometry. First, all existing optimally precise temperature probes local, meaning their operation is optimal onl...

During the last 10 years, research in light-pipe radiation thermometry has significantly reduced the uncertainties for temperature measurements in semiconductor processing. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has improved the calibration of lightpipe radiation thermometers (LPRTs), the characterization procedures for LPRTs, the in situ calibration of LPRTs using thin-film ...

BACKGROUND Temporal artery (TA) thermometry has come as one of the new methods for temperature measurement, especially in children in whom accurate temperature monitoring can save lives. The device which is convenient and simple to use is yet to gain popularity in several parts of the world, as there are conflicting reports of its accuracy. This study compares the accuracy of the TA thermometry...

BACKGROUND Clinical treatment of cardiac arrhythmia by radiofrequency ablation (RFA) currently lacks quantitative and precise visualization of lesion formation in the myocardium during the procedure. This study aims at evaluating thermal dose (TD) imaging obtained from real-time magnetic resonance (MR) thermometry on the heart as a relevant indicator of the thermal lesion extent. METHODS MR t...

In the current paper, there are considered criteria for estimating thermoelectric properties of metal glasses (MG) on suitability thermometry. It is revealed that a principle choice materials based only not quite efficient. needs to examine also their mechanical durability, thermal, radiating, and anticorrosive properties, etc. More complete consideration proves use MGs in thermometry rather ex...

Statistical thermodynamic phenomenon of fluctuations (noise) appearance in the controlled substance is under consideration in the proposed work. Their types as well as the relationship among them revealing in the totality of influences on the characteristics of a noise thermometer as a certified metrological mean of measuring the parameters of electric noise have been researched. The background...

INTRODUCTION: Thermosensitive liposomal drug carriers provide a method for triggering the rapid release of high drug concentrations in a targeted region [1]. In patients with painful bone metastases, this could increase the effectiveness of thermal approaches to pain palliation by increasing cell kill in treatment margins, and reducing the required energy deposition, potentially reducing treatm...

The aim of this study was to use whole body calorimetry to directly measure the change in body heat content (DeltaH(b)) during steady-state exercise and compare these values with those estimated using thermometry. The thermometry models tested were the traditional two-compartment model of "core" and "shell" temperatures, and a three-compartment model of "core," "muscle," and "shell" temperature...
