A laboratory test setup is built to transfer and actively stabilize an ultrastable signal, obtained from a laser with sub-Hz linewidth, trough a 5 km long fiber link. The fiber noise is measured and compensated via a feedback loop acting on an AOM that can change the frequency (and therefore the phase) …

Resonance-enhanced laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy was used to increase the elemental sensitivity of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. In resonance-enhanced laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy, two lasers are used. The first laser creates a plasma, and the second laser re excites the most …

We examine the ways in which a hidden crisis can be exposed from a communication point of view. In which way can organisations create general awareness of a crisis and try to understand the dynamic nature of interactions? With the help of discourse analysis, we have examined the interactional achievements …

BACKGROUND: T lymphocytes are orchestrators of adaptive immunity. Naïve T cells may differentiate into Th1, Th2, Th17 or iTreg phenotypes, depending on environmental co-stimulatory signals. To identify genes and pathways involved in differentiation of Jurkat T cells towards Th1 and Th2 subtypes we performed …

In this report the properties of the E-field sheet have been measured. Also the connection between the E-field sheet and the pc has been developed. For visualisation of the data a GUI has been made in Matlab which also reads out the data from the DAQ card. Before a measurement on the clinical equipment …

PRRT is a method of treatment that is used for a variety of diseases. In this method of treatment patient are infused with a radiopharmaceutical. This radiopharmaceutical will deliver a radiation dose to the specific targeted organ. However, due to infusion in the bloodstream other organs will also sustain …

Nuclear fusion is seen as one of the future technologies for roducing electrical power. In a hot and con ned plasma deuterium and tritium will melt together and form a helium nucleus and a neutron. This process produces a total of 17.6 MeV energy. In the plasma instabilities occur. Suppression of these …

Glucocorticoids (GCs), such as prednisolone (PRED), are widely prescribed anti-inflammatory drugs, but their use may induce glucose intolerance and diabetes. GC-induced beta cell dysfunction contributes to these diabetogenic effects through mechanisms that remain to be elucidated. In this study, we hypothesized …

Validation of a new method for ultrasonic structural health monitoring using advanced signal analysis. This paper presents the results of research on a new method for the monitoring of structural health using ultrasound. Conventional ultrasonic methods use the damping of the first arrival of the echo …

The computer program ART.LAB is an important product with which physicians and researchers can measure different blood vessel wall properties, and save the recorded radio frequency data (RF-data) and other measured properties into files for later analysis. One of the most relevant ART.LAB measurement …
