We have experimentally studied the effects of gamma-radiation up to very high total doses on the physical properties of Brillouin scattering in standard commercially available optical fibres. A frequency variation of about 5 MHz for both Brillouin frequenc ...
Gd3L is a trinuclear Gd3R complex of intermediate size, designed for contrast agent applications in high field magnetic resonance imaging (H12L is based on a trimethylbenzene core bearing three methylene-diethylenetriamine-N,N,N00,N00-tetraacetate moieties ...
Technetium is an artificial element and its isotope 99mTc is now used for several years as radio-imaging agent. Much research effort is directed towards enhanced targeting of the imaging agents in order to improve accuracy of the diagnosis and reduce the r ...
Granular media are omnipresent in the food industry, whether as raw materials, intermediate or final products. While a lot has been done already in modelling food processes dealing with liquids, solid and gases, very little exists until now in granular flo ...
Spectroscopic, photochemical and biological properties of indocyanine green (ICG) are presented. Light over 800 nm is effectively absorbed by ICG. This property as well as photochemical behaviour of ICG make it a very suitable dye for photodynamic treatmen ...

Irradiation is known to lead to a degradation of the mechanical properties of materials. This is particularly crucial in the case of materials that will be used in the future thermonuclear fusion reactor, where extremely high irradiation doses are expected ...
Charpy impact tests were performed on martensitic/ferritic (MF) steels T91, F82H, Optifer-V and Optimax-A/-C irradiated in SINQ Target-3 up to 7.5 dpa and 500 appm He in a temperature range of 120-195 degrees C. Results demonstrate that for all the four ki ...
F82H low-activation martensitic steel was irradiated in the Swiss Spallation Neutron Source (SINQ) Target-III to irradiation doses of 10-12 dpa in a temperature range of 140-360 degreesC. Transmission electron microscope observations have been performed to ...
Reduced activation martensitic steel specimens were irradiated by dual-beam from 0.1 to 50 dpa at 250 and 300 degreesC with 10 He appm/dpa. The in-situ microstructure observation shows that the bubbles were present after 1.7 dpa for 250 degreesC irradiatio ...
This contribution describes the results of impurity seeding experiments using neon gas injection into the private fl zone of an ohmically heated TCV single null lower, deuterium fuelled, open divertor configuration. In these first experiments, neon has bee ...
