abstract necrotizing sarcoid granulomatosis (nsg) is a rare disease which is classified in the spectrum of pulmonary angiitis and granulomatosis. it is a variant of sarcoidosis and differs from it histologically. diagnosis is based on the pathological features, but radiology may help in the differential diagnosis. it is characterized by alveolar infiltrates or parenchymal nodules in multidetect...

background: trace elements play an important role in a number of biological processes. astaxanthin (asx), a carotoid pigment found in certain marine plant and animals, has shown anti cancer and anti free radical properties. this work intended to understand the effect of astaxanthin in breast cancer (invasive ductal carcinoma, idc) by using micro-pixe method. for this aim the concentration of tr...

solitary pulmonary nodule (spn) is a frequent finding on the chest x-ray and computed tomography. nuclear medicine techniques play an important role in the diagnosis and management of spn. in the current review, we briefly will explain the different nuclear medicine modalities in this regard including positron emission tomography (pet) using 18-f-fdg, and 11-c-methionine, and single photon emis...

The photospheric emission of a white dwarf (WD) is not expected to be detectable in hard X-rays or the mid-IR. Hard X-ray (∼1 keV) emission associated with a WD is usually attributed to a binary companion; however, emission at 1 keV has been detected from three WDs without companions: KPD 0005+5106, PG 1159, and WD 2226−210. The origin of their hard X-ray emission is unknown, although it has be...

Two sources of X-ray emission are expected from planetary nebulae: the hot central stars with Teff > 10 5 K, and shocked fast stellar winds at temperatures of 10 − 10 K. The stellar emission and nebular emission differ in spatial distribution and spectral properties. Observations of Xray emission from PNe may provide essential information on formation mechanisms and physical conditions of PNe. ...

in this work, copper oxide nanoparticles have been synthesized via extractive rosmarinus officinalis leaves by simple and economic co-precipitation method at ambient conditions which it has used (ch3coo)2cu+h2o individually as cu sources. it was found that uniform copper oxide nanoparticles have been successfully produced at various temperature, namely 400, 600, and 800 0c. powder x-ray diffrac...

In this review, high-resolution X-ray emission and X-ray absorption spectroscopy will be discussed. The focus is on the 3d transition-metal systems. To understand high-resolution X-ray emission and resonant X-ray emission, it is first necessary to spend some time discussing the X-ray absorption process. Section II discusses 1s X-ray absorption, i.e., the K edges, and section III deals with 2p X...

the knoevenagel condensation of aromatic aldehydes with barbituric acid, dimedone and malononitrile occurred in the presence of bf3/nano-γ-al2o3 at room temperature in ethanol. this catalyst is characterized by powder x-ray diffraction (xrd), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir), thermal gravimetric analysis (tga), field emission scanning electron microscopy (fesem) and energy-disper...
