When a real fluid is expelled quickly from a tube, it forms a jet separated from the surrounding fluid by a thin, turbulent layer. On the other hand, when the same fluid is sucked into the tube, it comes in from all ...

Diskoseismology, the theoretical study of normal-mode oscillations in geometrically thin, optically thick accretion disks, is a strong candidate for explaining some quasi-periodic oscillations in the power spectra of many ...

En la sesión dedicada a la Medicina Nuclear (MN) se identificaron los cinco aspectos que se consideran más problemáticos en la protección radiológica en MN. Estos hacen referencia a: 1. Garantizar que la dosis administrada ...

We explored the relationship between the precipitation anomalies during May to June as the first peak of the rainy season in the Pacific slope of Central America, and sea surface temperature (SST) fluctuations in the ...

In the early 18th century, J. E. E. Bessler, known as Orffyreus, constructed several wheels that he claimed could keep turning forever, powered only by gravity. He never revealed the details of his invention, but he ...

Recent experimental work has revealed that the unusually strong, isotropic structural negative thermal expansion in cubic perovskite ionic insulator ScF3 occurs in excited states above a ground state tuned very near a ...

In this document a set of exact solutions is obtained by using the model of a perfect fluid on an homogeneous and anisotropic space-time that belongs to (Local Rotational Symmetry) Petrov’s type D. This solutions represent ...

Purpose: To use Monte Carlo calculations to determine the dosimetric characteristics of CivaString, a new polymer-encapsulated, elongated, 103Pd brachytherapy source made by Civatech Oncology for prostate implants. This ...

Phase transitions to a long-range-ordered state driven by a softened phonon mode are ubiquitous across condensed matter physics, but the evolution of such a mode as the system is tuned to or from the transition has never ...

Radiopharmaceutical dosimetry depends on the localization in space and time of radioactive sources and requires the estimation of the amount of energy emitted by the sources deposited within targets. In particular, when ...
