Various types of radiation detectors are used to measure relative dose distributions for therapeutic electron and photon beams. Most detectable signals from a radiation detector are correlated to the energy imparted δε to the detector [1]. This, in turn, is related to the absorbed dose in the detector, Ddet. Table I lists types of radiation detectors, their signals, and their relationship to th...

soil water retention curve is one of the crucial input parameters in any modeling study on water flow and solute transport in soils. direct measurement of soil water retention curve is time-consuming and costly. alternatively, pedotransfer functions (ptfs) may be used to indirectly estimate the soil water retention curve from easily measured soil properties. many equations for the soil water re...

Purpose: This study investigated the color and translucency changes of denture teeth after immersion in disinfectant solutions. Material Methods: Ten (Optostar/Heraeus Kulzer) were immersed nine different solutions (ethanol 78%, 2-propanol 75%, NaOCl 1%, H2O2 0.5%, glutaraldehyde 2.6%, chlorhexidine 0.12%, povidone-iodine Listerine Naturals, distilled water) for 3 min to 180 min. L*, a* b* valu...

Abstract. Let R be a 2-torsion free ring with identity. In this paper, first we prove that any Jordan left derivation (hence, any left derivation) on the full matrix ringMn(R) (n 2) is identically zero, and any generalized left derivation on this ring is a right centralizer. Next, we show that if R is also a prime ring and n 1, then any Jordan left derivation on the ring Tn(R) of all n×n uppe...

the aim of this paper is to show that under some mild conditions a functional equation of multiplicative (; )-derivation is superstable on standard operator algebras. furthermore, we prove that this generalized derivation can be a continuous and an inner (; )- derivation.
