The choroid plexus (CP) within the brain ventricles is well-known to produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Recently, CP has been recognized as critical in modulating inflammation. MRI-measured enlargement reported neuroinflammatory disorders like MS well with aging and neurodegeneration. basis of unknown. On tissue studies demonstrating calcification a common pathology associated disease, we hypothesized that previously unmeasured contributes volume may be more specifically neuroinflammation.
We use Transient Rayleigh Scattering to study the thermalization of hot photoexcited carriers in single GaAsSb/InP nanowire heterostructures. By comparing energy loss rate bare GaAsSb nanowires which do not show substantial carrier effects with core-shell nanowires, we that presence an InP shell substantially suppresses LO phonon emission at low temperatures leading strong effects.
