A new experiment is described to detect a permanent electric dipole moment of the proton with sensitivity $10^{-29}e\cdot$cm by using polarized "magic" momentum $0.7$~GeV/c protons in an all-electric storage ring. Systematic errors relevant are discussed and techniques address them presented. The measurement sensitive physics beyond Standard Model at scale 3000~TeV.
Purpose: MR-guided Radiation Therapy (MRgRT) allows for high-precision radiotherapy under real-time MR visualization. This enables margin reduction and subsequent dose escalation which may lead to higher tumor control less toxicity. The Unity MR-linac (Elekta AB, Stockholm, Sweden) integrates a linear accelerator with 1.5T diagnostic quality MRI an online adaptive workflow. A prospective international registry was established facilitate the evidence-based implementation of into clinical...

The Delite compiler framework simplifies process of building embedded parallel DSLs. DSL developers can implement domain-specific operations by extending framework, which provides static optimizations code generation for hardware. runtime automatically schedules executes on
Grenet and Vonnegut have shown that an electrified cloud surrounded by conducting clear air acquires electrical screening layer around its outer boundaries droplet capture of ions.

Long image acquisition times of 60–120 s for cone-beam CT (CBCT) limit the number patients with lung cancer who can undergo volume guidance under breathhold. We developed a low-dose dual-energy kilovoltage–megavoltage-cone-beam (kVMV-CBCT) based on clinical treatment unit reducing imaging time to ⩽15 s. Simultaneous kVMV-imaging was achieved by dedicated synchronization hardware controlling output linear accelerator (linac) detector panel readout signals, preventing artifacts from...
