introduction one of the central questions in radiological protection is the magnitude of the risks from low doses of radiation, related to the justification and optimization of the diagnostic medical exposures. therefore, the aim of this study was to estimate the cancer incidence and mortality risks in children of different ages, sizes, and ethnicities undergoing computed tomography examination...

We describe the application of three-dimensional (3D) scattering interferometric (iSCAT) imaging to the measurement of spatial interaction potentials for nano-objects in solution. We study electrostatically trapped gold particles in a nanofluidic device and present details on axial particle localization in the presence of a strongly reflecting interface. Our results demonstrate high-speed (~kHz...

We model a decision maker who can exert costly effort to adapt her risk assessments, thereby optimizing the value of risky prospects. provide an axiomatic characterization and show how costs adaption be elicited compared across individuals. In moral hazard problem, we that adapting assessments weaken effect monetary incentives for provision, which has important implications agency problems. sev...
