Dynamical Control of Nuclear Isomer Depletion via Electron Vortex Beams

Some nuclear isomers are known to store a large amount of energy over long periods of time, with a very high energy-to-mass ratio. Here, we describe a protocol to achieve the external control of the isomeric nuclear decay by using electron vortex beams who ...

Tuning the Size and Geometry of Heteroleptic Coordination Cages by Varying the Ligand Bent Angle

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Rujin Li

Spherical assemblies of the type [PdnL2n]2n+ can be obtained from PdII salts and curved N-donor ligands, L. It is well established that the bent angle, α, of the ligand is a decisive factor in the self-assembly process, with larger angles leading to comple ...

3D T 2-weighted imaging at 7T using dynamic kT-points on single-transmit MRI systems

Rolf Gruetter, José Pedro Rebelo Ferreira Marques, Daniel Gallichan, Kieran O'Brien, Florent Eggenschwiler

OBJECTIVES: For turbo spin echo (TSE) sequences to be useful at ultra-high field, they should ideally employ an RF pulse train compensated for the B 1 + inhomogeneity. Previously, it was shown that a single kT-point pulse designed in the small tip-angle re ...

Improving T2 -weighted imaging at high field through the use of kT -points

Rolf Gruetter, José Pedro Rebelo Ferreira Marques, Kieran O'Brien, Florent Eggenschwiler

PURPOSE: At high magnetic field strengths (B0 >/= 3 T), the shorter radiofrequency wavelength produces an inhomogeneous distribution of the transmit magnetic field. This can lead to variable contrast across the brain which is particularly pronounced in T2 ...
