immature teeth have a large apical opening and thin divergent or parallel dentinal walls; hence, with conventional needle irrigation there is a very high possibility of extrusion. this study was done to compare the apical extrusion of naocl in an immature root delivered using endovac and needle irrigation.eighty freshly extracted maxillary central incisors were decoronated followed by access ca...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The cerebral arteries present an optimum blood flow/vessel radius relation. However, branch angles may vary widely in the cerebral arteries because the parametric optimization of branch angles is irrelevant in terms of energy cost. The position of the flow divider in extracranial arteries has been suggested to be optimum in flow orderliness. No data exist on the flow divi...

The enhancement and confinement of electromagnetic radiation to nanometer scale have improved the performances and decreased the dimensions of optical sources and detectors for several applications including spectroscopy, medical applications, and quantum information. Realization of on-chip nanofocusing devices compatible with silicon photonics platform adds a key functionality and provides opp...

Galactic interactions and subsequent mergers are a paramount channel for galaxy evolution. In this work, we use the data from 236 star forming CALIFA galaxies with integrated molecular gas observations in their central region (approximately within an effective radius) -- APEX millimeter telescope CARMA array. This sample includes isolated (126 galaxies) interacting different merging stages (110...

Abstract Large coronal loops around one solar radius in altitude are an important connection between the wind and low corona. However, their plasma properties ill-defined, as standard X-ray UV techniques not suited to these low-density environments. Diagnostics from type J radio bursts at frequencies above 10 MHz ideally understand loops. Despite this, J-bursts less frequently studied than III ...

We present a novel approach for achieving tightly concentrated optical field by a hybrid photonic-plasmonic device in an integrated platform, which is a triangle-shaped metal taper mounted on top of a dielectric waveguide. This device, which we call a plasmomic light concentrator (PLC), can achieve vertical coupling of light energy from the dielectric waveguide to the plasmonic region and light...

Solute diffusion coupled with an orthogonal laminar flow has been systematically studied with wide-bore capillaries to establish its limitations and reveal its potentials as separation methodology requiring neither chemical nor physical interactions. Simulations based on the advection-diffusion equation in a cylindrical coordinate system indicate several important features of this potentially u...
