Theoretical analysis on radiation and reception characteristics of an oblate spheroidal antenna for electron plasma waves

Journal Article Ohnuki, S; Adachi, S; Ohnuma, T - J. Appl. Phys.; (United States)

The radiation and reception characteristics of the oblate spheroidal antenna for electron plasma waves are theoretically investigated. The analysis is carried out as a boundary-value problem. The formulas for the radiation and reception characteristics such as radiation impedance, electron charge distributions, radiated wave potential, directional properties, and receiving voltage of the oblate spheroidal antenna are analytically obtained. As a result, it is concluded that the radiation and reception characteristics of the antennas are not uniquely determined by k/sub p/a (k/sub p/ is the wave number of an electron plasma wave, and a is the radius of the circular-plate antenna), butmore »« less

WE-A-16A-01: International Medical Physics Symposium: Increasing Access to Medical Physics Education/Training and Research Excellence

Journal Article Bortfeld, T; Ngoma, T; Odedina, F; ... - Medical Physics

In response to a world in which cancer is a growing global health challenge, there is now a greater need for US Medical Physicists and other Radiation Oncology professionals across institutions to work together and be more globally engaged in the fight against cancer. There are currently many opportunities for Medical Physicists to contribute to alleviating this pressing need, especially in helping enhance access to Medical Physics Education/training and Research Excellence across international boundaries, particularly for low and middle-income countries (LMIC), which suffer from a drastic shortage of accessible knowledge and quality training programs in radiotherapy. Many Medical Physicists aremore »« less

Ten-channel grating polychromator for electron cyclotron emission plasma diagnostics

Journal Article Fischer, J; Boyd, D; Cavallo, A; ... - Rev. Sci. Instrum.; (United States)

A grating polychromator for electron cyclotron temperature diagnostic experiments is described. Two aluminum gratings are used to allow the instrument to operate for tokamak magnetic fields between 16--25 kG, i.e., for second harmonic electron cyclotron emission frequencies ranging between 90--140 GHz. The instrument utilizes an array of ten cryogenically cooled InSb hot electron bolometers to collect radiation at the focal surface of the spectrometer covering a fractional plasma radial distance of ..delta..R/R/sub 0/approx.0.3--0.4, where R/sub 0/ is the major radius of the plasma. The resolving power of the spectrometer has been measured to be R = ..nu../delta..nu..roughly-equal50. This instrument thusmore »« less

TU-C-18A-01: Models of Risk From Low-Dose Radiation Exposures: What Does the Evidence Say?

Journal Article Bushberg, J; Boreham, D; Ulsh, B - Medical Physics

At dose levels of (approximately) 500 mSv or more, increased cancer incidence and mortality have been clearly demonstrated. However, at the low doses of radiation used in medical imaging, the relationship between dose and cancer risk is not well established. As such, assumptions about the shape of the dose-response curve are made. These assumptions, or risk models, are used to estimate potential long term effects. Common models include 1) the linear non-threshold (LNT) model, 2) threshold models with either a linear or curvilinear dose response above the threshold, and 3) a hormetic model, where the risk is initially decreased belowmore »« less

Building Towards Discovery: Preparing for New Physics at the LHC [Final papers]

Technical Report Andeen, Timothy

Particle physics today is at a crossroads. The Standard Model (SM) has survived four decades of experimental scrutiny and spurred multiple landmark discoveries, culminating with the 2012 discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Yet we know that this model is incomplete. We live in a universe dominated by matter and energy unaccounted for by the SM– and the Higgs boson itself is improbably light. It falls to the current generation of high-energy physicists to go beyond the model and enter a new era of discovery. Andeen is leading a new research group at the Universitymore »« less
