In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), it is possible to cancel the effects of severe inhomogeneities of the magnetic field even if the field profile is unknown. The new ‘cross-encoded’ method is based on adiabatic frequency-modulated pulses combined with tw ...
We exhibit explicit Lipschitz maps from R '' to R '' which have almost everywhere orthogonal gradient and are equal to zero on the boundary of a cube. We solve the problem by induction on the dimension n. (C) 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. ...
Pulsed Field Gradients (PFGs) have become ubiquitous tools not only for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), but also for NMR experiments designed to study translational diffusion, for spatial encoding in ultra-fast spectroscopy, for the selection of desirabl ...
In an arbitrary unitary 4D CFT we consider a scalar operator phi, and the operator phi(2) defined as the lowest dimension scalar which appears in the OPE phi x phi with a nonzero coefficient. Using general considerations of OPE, conformal block decompositi ...
The behavior of metals at high pressure is of great importance to the fields of shock physics, geophysics, astrophysics, and nuclear materials. We study here bulk crystalline aluminum from first principles at pressures up to 2500 GPa - soon within reach of ...
Spatial encoding in MRI is conventionally achieved by the application of switchable linear encoding fields. The general concept of the recently introduced PatLoc (Parallel Imaging Technique using Localized Gradients) encoding is to use nonlinear fields to ...
We extend the mimetic finite difference (MFD) method to the numerical treatment of magnetostatic fields problems in mixed div-curl form for the divergence-free magnetic vector potential. To accomplish this task, we introduce three sets of degrees of freedo ...
A simple method for computing accurate density-dependent dispersion coefficients is presented. The dispersion coefficients are modeled by a generalized gradient-type approximation to Becke and Johnson's exchange hole dipole moment formalism. Our most cost- ...
Various real-time optimization techniques proceed by controlling the gradient to zero. These methods primarily differ in the way the gradient is estimated. This paper compares various gradient estimation methods. It is argued that methods with model-based ...
(La,Sr)FeO3 mixed conducting perovskites are considered as interesting candidates for oxygen separation membranes but they suffer from limited structural stability in a large oxygen partial pressure (pO2) gradient, because of their propensity for chemical ...
