The statistical literature is replete with calls to report standardized measures of effect size alongside traditional p-values and null hypothesis tests. While effect-size such as Cohen’s d Hedges’s g are straightforward calculate for t tests, this not the case parameters in more complex linear models, where η 2 ω face limitations. After a review sizes their implementation Stata, I introduce co...

Fluid properties of five binary mixtures relevant to shale gas and light tight oil in confined nano-channels are studied. Canonical (NVT) Monte Carlo simulations are used to determine internal energies of departure of pure fluids using the RASPA software system (Dubbeldam et al., 2015). The linear mixing rule proposed by Lucia et al. (2012) is used to determine internal energies of departure fo...

Freestanding gold nanowires (AuNW) were incorporated to fabricate a miniaturized gas ionization sensor. The device exhibited improved ensitivity in sub-Torr pressure (P) regime compared to similar devices reported earlier, since the room temperature breakdown voltage (Vb) as further reduced in low gas pressures or concentrations (N). Also excellent selectivity was achieved for pressures up to 1...

Introduction Quality control is an important phenomenon in nuclear medicine imaging. A Jaszczak SPECT Phantom provides consistent performance information for any SPECT or PET system. This article describes the simulation of a Jaszczak phantom and creating an executable phantom file for comparing assessment of SPECT cameras using SIMIND Monte Carlo simulation program which is well-established fo...
