Nephrolithiasis is a scientific term that refers to kidney stones and means the formation of crystal concretions in kidney. It considered widespread situation affects millions people worldwide. Those can cause serious discomfort infected people, especially when they traverse urinary system, although, big may need surgical intervention. Various systems are already use address stones, including ultrasound imaging for detection, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) non-invasive stone...
A compact racetrack-type 700 MeV storage ring (HiSOR) has been constructed at Hiroshima Synchrotron Radiation Center (HSRC). As the was planned for synchrotron radiation research on science and technology using VUV to X-rays up 5 keV with limited size cost, designed (i) realize a high magnetic field (2.7 T) conventional dipole magnets higher critical energy, (ii) include two straight sections insertion devices. linear undulator (25-300 eV) new-type helical/linear were installed sections. The...
An accelerator test facility, t-ACTS, established at Research Center for Electron Photon Science, Tohoku University, equips an injector consisted with a thermionic RF gun together energy filter and 3 m traveling wave accelerating structure. A long-period undulator has been also installed provide THz superradiance. Velocity bunching scheme proposed by Serafini Ferrario is employed ultra-short electron pulses production. non-relativistic bunch, which slightly slower than the velocity of light,...
The beam from thermionic RF gun is quite suitable for the bunch compression by means of velocity bunching. Since very stable in general, we anticipate short electron pulses length around 50 fs can be provided satisfactorily. t-ACTS program has been developed toward updating terahertz science and technology which intense coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) bunches will employed. Careful numerical simulation showed possibility less than 100 with a charge 20 pC, provide sufficiently large form...
This paper presents evaluation results of a power- efficient JPEG compression circuit utilizing approximate computing. To achieve power efficiency, we replace summations in Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) with additions that follow Carry-Maskable Adder (CMA) [1]. We evaluate both the quality compressed images and consumed by circuit. However, observed unexpected where consumption increased despite use approximation, contradicting our expectations. Our detailed investigations revealed...
In order to study the properties of hot nuclei, neutrons emitted in $^{40}\mathrm{Ar}$+Ni, $^{92}\mathrm{Mo}$, $^{122}\mathrm{Sn}$ reactions at E/A=26 MeV were measured coincidence with fusion residues. The neutron spectra obtained for different residue velocities analyzed moving source model. are well reproduced two sources; one corresponds preequilibrium emission and other decay nuclei. extracted multiplicity initial temperature nuclei indicate formation thermally equilibrated excitation...
The temporal profile measurement for ultra-short electron bunches is one of the key issues accelerator-based coherent light sources. A bunch length system using Cherenkov radiation (CR) under development at Research Center Electron Photon Science, Tohoku University. This allows real-time diagnostics bunches. comprises a thin silica aerogel as radiator, specially designed optical transport line, and high-speed streak camera. can be obtained by measuring time spread CR from electrons passing...
