Understanding the origin and evolution of near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) is an issue scientific interest practical importance because NEAs are potentially hazardous to Earth. However, when how formed their evolutionary history remain enigmas. Here, we report U-Pb systematics Itokawa particles for first time. Ion microprobe analyses seven phosphate grains from a single particle provide isochron age 4.64 ± 0.18 billion years (1σ). This ancient thought represent thermal metamorphism Itokawa's...
Short-lived radionuclides (SLRs) once present in the solar nebula can be used as probes of formation environment our Solar System within Milky Way Galaxy. The first-formed solids System, calcium-, aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) meteorites, record one-time existence SLRs such 10Be and 26Al nebula. We measured 10Be–10B isotope systematics 29 CAIs from several CV3, CO3, CR2, CH/CB chondrites show that all except for a FUN CAI homogeneous initial 10Be/9Be with single probability density peak at...
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is a precise treatment modality for lung cancer, delivering high-dose radiation to tumors while sparing surrounding organs. However, because of their intracardiac placement and proximity the chest field, leadless pacemakers (LLPMs) pose unique challenges that are not fully addressed by existing protocols conventional pacemakers. In this case study, we aimed emphasize importance identifying LLPMs before initiating SBRT cancer discuss necessary adjustments...
ABSTRACT Rationale Matrix effects by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) are empirically corrected calibration using matrix‐matched reference materials. However, conventional parametric regression cannot estimate the prediction uncertainty to account for difference in compositions of new data and Applying Gaussian process (GPR), a nonparametric probabilistic method, enables correction matrix effect while providing quantitative uncertainty. Methods We developed GPR models estimating...
This study aimed to identify prognostic factors for response whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) in patients with brain metastases (BMs) from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).This retrospectively evaluated 100 who underwent WBRT BMs NSCLC between December 2012 and October 2017. Clinical were tested associations overall survival after WBRT.The median follow-up time was 134 days (range=14-1,395 days), the 143 days, 1-year rate 30.4%. Univariate multivariate analyses revealed that better...
Abstract Cylindrical molecular filaments are observed to be the main sites of Sunlike star formation, while massive stars form in dense hubs at junction multiple filaments. The role hub–filament configurations has not been discussed yet relation birth environment solar system and infer origin isotopic ratios short-lived radionuclides (SLR, such as 26 Al) calcium–aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) meteorites. In this work, we present simple analytical estimates impact stellar feedback on young...
141 filterable bacteria that passed through a 0.22 μm pore size filter were isolated from Lake Sanaru in Hamamatsu, Japan. These belonged to Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, or Actinobacteria among which the first two phyla comprised majority of isolates. 48 isolates (12 taxa) are candidates assignable new bacterial species genera Proteobacteria Bacteroidetes.
This study aimed to identify factors that predict prognosis after radiotherapy for brain metastases (BMs) from small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). retrospectively evaluated 48 consecutive patients who underwent whole-brain (WBRT) BMs SCLC between February 2008 and December 2017. WBRT was delivered at a median dose of 30 Gy (range: 30-40 Gy) in 10 fractions 10-16 fractions). Clinical were tested associations with overall survival WBRT. The 1-year rate treatment 232 days 34.4%, respectively....
We have been developing monolithic active pixel sensors, X-ray Astronomy SOI XRPIXs, based on a Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) CMOS technology as soft sensors for future Japanese mission, FORCE (Focusing On Relativistic universe and Cosmic Evolution). The mission is characterized by broadband (1-80 keV) imaging spectroscopy with high angular resolution ($<15$~arcsec), which we can achieve about ten times higher sensitivity in comparison to the previous missions above 10~keV. Immediate readout of...
