We demonstrate that multiple topological transitions that occur, with high-sensitivity, by continuous change in geometry of a simple 2D dielectric-frame photonic crystal consisting of circular air-holes. These transitions are characterized by the switch between the frequencies of the pand d-orbital Bloch modes encompassing the photonic band gap (PBG). By tuning the radii of the holes and/or the...

This paper reports the validation results of burst misalignment for ScanSAR-ScanSAR interferometry of the Phased Array-type L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar-2 (PALSAR-2) aboard the Advanced Land Observing Satellite-2 (ALOS-2, “DAICHI-2”). After the internal software modification on 8 February 2015, ALOS-2 ScanSAR observation mode archives have been available for use in interferometric analysis, ...

ELEMENTARY CLASSES STABLE IN א0 SAHARON SHELAH AND SEBASTIEN VASEY Abstract. We study abstract elementary classes (AECs) that, in א0, have amalgamation, joint embedding, no maximal models and are stable (in terms of the number of orbital types). We prove that such classes exhibit superstable-like behavior at א0. More precisely, there is a superlimit model of cardinality א0 and the class generat...

Generalized parton distributions (GPDs) [1] have attracted significant interest since it has been recognized that they can not only be probed in deeply virtual Compton scattering experiments but can also be related to the orbital angular momentum carried by quarks in the nucleon [2]. However, remarkably little is still known about the physical interpretation of GPDs, and one may ask the questio...

BACKGROUND Neurons in primary auditory cortex are known to be sensitive to the locations of sounds in space, but the reference frame for this spatial sensitivity has not been investigated. Conventional wisdom holds that the auditory and visual pathways employ different reference frames, with the auditory pathway using a head-centered reference frame and the visual pathway using an eye-centered ...

blow out fracture is a common disease in oculoplastics clinics. one of indication for surgical intervention is entrapment of inferior rectus muscle in the fractured site. in this article authors represent two cases with this disease who underwent surgery for the entrapment of perimuscular fascia without inferior rectus muscle involvement. the results of treatment in both cases were excellent. t...

introduction: fractures of the orbital floor, which are caused by various mechanisms, result in the herniation of periorbital tissue into the paranasal sinuses and its subsequent complications. early diagnosis using various techniques and reduction of fractures are necessary to preserve ocular function and esthetic. use of an endoscope has been associated with some advantages, including a decre...

purpose: to report a case of enophthalmos secondary to complete globe dislocation into the maxillary sinus due to orbital fracture. patient and findings: an 18-year-old man was referred to labafinejad hospital, one week after a car accident. at initial examination, the globe was not seen within the right orbit. a large floor fracture and globe luxation into the right maxillary sinus were confir...

grave’s disease is a clinical syndrome consisting of hypermetabolism, diffuse thyroid enlargement and exophthalmos. which has ocular complications. due to the high incidence of these complications and the risk of blindness special attention is needed. many therapeutic methods including medical surgical and radiotherapy for ocular complications are suggested. in cases of medical therapy failure,...
