In this paper, we classify a type of abstract groups by the central products of dihedral groups and quaternion groups. We recognize them as abstract error groups which are often not isomorphic to the Pauli groups in the literature. We show the corresponding nice error bases equivalent to the Pauli error bases modulo phase factors. The extension of these abstract groups by the symmetric group ar...

background: study in design to incorporate accelerated proliferation correction factors into linearquadratic and multiple-component models. materials and methods: accelerated proliferation rate correction factor has been incorporated into the linearquadratic and the multiple component models by applying accelerated exponential cell growth to explain the tumor cell kinetics and estimates proper ...

This paper discusses different important gas permeation models such as “Maxwell”, “Bruggeman”, “Lewis-Neilson”, and “Pal” models to predict “Mixed Matrix Membranes” (MMMs) performance. The main parameter considered and discussed is the permeability of Hydrogen on Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs)-MMM. For evaluation of the theoretical models, experimental data of permeability for H2 were compa...

The degree to which measurement accuracy in a vector network analyzer can be improved through error correction is dependent on a number of factors. Modern error correction methods have improved the system accuracy and simplified the calibration procedure. Methods are in place to determine the accuracy of error corrected measurements. And the quality of the calibration standards is key to system...

The invention concerns a method to remotely measure the nodes’ quartz frequencies within a distributed system based on FlexRay. The proposed approach uses the clock correction mechanism and more especially the integrated damping factor, which slightly shifts the node’s internal clock correction term and its resulting time base. The invention was made by researchers of the Vienna University of T...

BACKGROUND The attenuation of the relationship between disease and a risk factor subject to error through 'regression dilution' is well recognized, and researchers often make attempts to adjust for its effects. However, the adjustment methods most often adopted in cohort studies make an implicit assumption that the relationship is driven exclusively by current error-free levels of the risk fact...

A simple method was developed, for possible use by hospital physicists, to evaluate the irradiation effects on cables and connectors during large-radiation-field dosimetry with ionization chambers and to determine correction factors for the used system or geometry. This method was based on the absorbed dose dependence of the correction factor.

The present paper addresses reference dose measurements using thimble ionization chambers for quality assurance in IMRT fields. In these radiation fields, detector fluence perturbation effects invalidate the application of open-field dosimetry protocol data for the derivation of absorbed dose to water from ionization chamber measurements. We define a correction factor C(Q)IMRT to correct the ab...

We provide a correction factor to be added in ablation algorithms when a Gaussian beam is used in photorefractive laser surgery. This factor, which quantifies the effect of pulse overlapping, depends on beam radius and spot size. We also deduce the expected post-surgical corneal radius and asphericity when considering this factor. Data on 141 eyes operated on LASIK (laser in situ keratomileusis...
