In one of its acceptation, the word quench is synonym of destruction. And this is even more consistent with reality in the case of the Large Hadron Collider dipole magnets, whose magnetic field and stored energy are unprecedented: the uncontrolled transiti ...
The deployment of high power radio frequency waves in the ion cyclotron range (ICRF) constitutes an important operational facility in many plasma devices, including ITER. Any charged particle describes a helical motion around a given magnetic field line, t ...
This article introduces the design of surface coils for multinuclear applications. The relative sensitivities of several NMR-visible nuclei of biological interest are considered, and the motivations to operate an RF coil at multiple frequencies, both seque ...
This thesis presents new superconducting compact (as opposed to separated-sector ) cyclotron designs for injection in CABOTO, a linac developed by the TERA Foundation delivering C6+/H2+ beams up to 400 MeV/u for ion beam therapy. This association of a vari ...
A new area in particle physics has begun with the start of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN at the end of 2009, which collides protons at energies never reached before. To detect the products of the collisions, four main experiments are located arou ...
A Magnetic Switchable Device (MSD) is a ferromagnetic circuit using permanent magnets where the flux can circulate between different paths when its configuration is changed. This routes or cancels the flux through specific surfaces, and thus turns on or of ...
In February of 2012, the first international conference on real time functional magnetic resonance imaging (rtfMRI) neurofeedback was held at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETHZ), Switzerland. This review summarizes progress in the field ...
This paper introduces the concept of ring magnets for magnetic beads (MBs) trapping in a capillary. Such magnets enable an easy insertion of a capillary simply like a pearl on a string. With this system, high magnetic forces are obtained thanks to the prox ...
Magnetic beads (MB) have now proven to be a powerful tool in both research and biomedical applications. They are available in a wide range of sizes (from nm to several µm) and their surface can be modified with molecules having biological specificities and ...
Current biomedical research increasingly requires imaging large and thick 3D structures at high resolution. Prominent examples are the tracking of fine filaments over long distances in brain slices, or the localization of gene expression or cell migration ...
