In this study, we investigate formation damage due to acidization and water injection tests into the naturally fractured carbonate Middle Duperow Formation at Kevin Dome, Montana, potentially diminishing chance of a future successful Geological Carbon Sequestration (GCS) project. Multiple well-test analytical models, correlated with core description lithology data, are used determine flow behav...

Ultrafast high energy electron diffraction in reflection geometry is employed to study the structural dynamics of self-organized Germanium hut-, dome-, and relaxed clusters on Si(001) upon femtosecond laser excitation. Utilizing the difference in size and strain state the response of hut- and dome clusters can be distinguished by a transient spot profile analysis. Surface diffraction from {105}...

The optical reference plane of a J1002 shaped dome diffuser from CMS-Schreder was determined using direct normal spectral solar UV irradiance measurements relative to a flat Teflon diffuser. The spectroradiometers were calibrated relative to the same irradiance standard. The optical reference plane of the shaped J1002 diffuser is 5.3 mm behind the top of the dome with an uncertainty of 1.0 mm. ...

Planetariums and smaller personal domes can provide an immersive environment for science education, virtual reality, and entertainment [Shaw 1998]. Digital projection into domes, called “full dome projection” in the industry, can be a technically challenging and expensive exercise, particularly so for installations with modest budgets. An alternative full dome digital projection system is prese...

The science case for FIR/Submm surveys of the extragalactic sky to be carried from Dome C are reviewed. The main questions concerning the formation and evolution of galaxies making up the CIRB are outlined and opportunities to exploit Dome C unique observing conditions through single-dish observations are discussed. 1 FIR/Submm Extragalactic Astronomy The wide spectral region between the optica...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to confirm that the interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) in the dome wall of the bladder are pacemaker cells, and that the dome wall of the bladder acts as a pacemaker site in the detrusor instability (DI) rat model. MATERIAL AND METHODS The model of DI in Wistar rats was established and urodynamic studies measuring the bladder volume and pressure were perform...

Percutaneous hepatic interventions are generally safe given the fact that liver closely abuts the abdominal wall and hence it is easily accessible. However, the superior portion of liver, adjacent to the diaphragm, commonly referred as the "hepatic dome", presents unique challenges for interventionists. Percutaneous access to the hepatic dome may be restricted by anatomical factors and special ...
