Background: The characteristics of secondary neutrons in a high energy radiation therapy room were studied using the MCNPX Monte Carlo (MC) code. Materials and Methods: Two MC models including a model with full description of head components and a simplified model used in previous studies were implemented for MC simulations. Results: Results showed 4-53% difference between full and wit...

With a multielectrode system, we explored neuronal activity in the gamma range (>40 Hz) in the primary and caudomedial auditory cortex of six anesthetized macaque monkeys. Stimuli were tone bursts of 100- to 500-ms duration that were presented at sound pressure levels of 40-60 dB and were varied over a wide range of frequencies. These stimuli induced gamma oscillations, not phase-locked to the ...

The main objective of this paper is to calculate the metric dimension and resolving-domination number zero-divisor graphs direct product finite fields. Let $F_1, \ldots, F_n(n \geqslant 2)$ be We consider graph $\Gamma(R)$ ring $R=F_1 \times \cdots F_n$ $(n determine $\beta(\Gamma(R))$ $\gamma_r(\Gamma(R))$ If order each field two, then we prove that $\beta(\Gamma(R)) \leqslant n-1$ $\gamma_r(\...

We perform an effective field theory analysis to correlate the charged lepton flavor violating processes ${\ensuremath{\ell}}_{i}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\ell}}_{j}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}$ and ${\ensuremath{\ell}}_{i}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\ell}}_{j}\ensuremath{\gamma}$. Using current upper bounds on rate for ${\ensuremath{\ell}}_{i}\ensuremath{\rightarr...

Introduction: Stereotactic Gamma Knife radiosurgery has been widely used for treating brain tumors. The scattered radiation outside of treatment field (peripheral dose) can induce the secondary cancer to specific organ. This paper investigated the absorbed dose to eyes, thyroid, heart, lung, breast and colon using a Monte Carlo technique for Mird phantom. We also study the ef...

A striking feature of some field potential recordings in visual cortex is a rhythmic oscillation within the gamma band (30-80 Hz). These oscillations have been proposed to underlie computations in perception, attention, and information transmission. Recent studies of cortical field potentials, including human electrocorticography (ECoG), have emphasized another signal within the gamma band, a n...

Cosmic ray protons accelerated in the internal shocks of a long duration gamma ray burst can escape the fireball by converting to neutrons. Hadronic interactions of these neutrons inside a stellar wind bubble created by the progenitor star will produce TeV gamma rays via neutral meson decay and synchrotron radiation by charged pion-decay electrons in the wind magnetic field. Such gamma rays may...

PURPOSE To investigate various issues for clinical implementation of aSi EPID panels for IMRT/VMAT QA. METHODS Six linacs are used in our clinic for EPID-based plan QA; two Varian Truebeams, two Varian 2100 series, two Elekta Infiniti series. Multiple corrections must be accounted for in the calibration of each panel for dosimetric use. Varian aSi panels are calibrated with standard dark fiel...

Protons accelerated in the internal shocks of a long duration gamma ray burst can escape the fireball as cosmic rays by converting to neutrons. Hadronic interactions of these neutrons inside a stellar wind bubble created by the progenitor star will produce TeV gamma rays via neutral meson decay and synchrotron radiation by charged pion-decay electrons in the wind magnetic field. Such gamma rays...

Visual stimulation produces oscillatory gamma responses in human primary visual cortex (V1) that also relate to visual perception. We have shown previously that peak gamma frequency positively correlates with central V1 cortical surface area. We hypothesized that people with larger V1 would have smaller receptive fields and that receptive field size, not V1 area, might explain this relationship...
