Daily Contributors of Tinnitus Loudness and Distress: An Ecological Momentary Assessment Study

Patrick Karl Alois Neff

BackgroundTinnitus is a heterogeneous condition which may be associated with moderate to severe disability, but the reasons why only a subset of individuals is burdened by the condition are not fully clear. Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) allows a be ...

Lower glutamate and GABA levels in auditory cortex of tinnitus patients: a 2D-JPRESS MR spectroscopy study

Thorsten Kleinjung, Patrick Karl Alois Neff

We performed magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) on healthy individuals with tinnitus and no hearing loss (n = 16) vs. a matched control group (n = 17) to further elucidate the role of excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters in tinnitus. Two-dimensio ...

High-frequency broadband laser phase noise cancellation using a delay line

Timo Zwettler

Laser phase noise remains a limiting factor in many experimental settings, including metrology, time-keeping, as well as quantum optics. Hitherto this issue was addressed at low frequencies ranging from well below 1 Hz to maximally 100 kHz. However, a wide ...

Transverse Noise, Decoherence, and Landau Damping in High-Energy Hadron Colliders

Sondre Vik Furuseth

High-energy hadron colliders are designed to generate particle collisions within specialized detectors. A higher number of collisions is achieved with high-quality beams of low transverse emittances, meaning a small transverse cross-section, and high inten ...

Blind Universal Bayesian Image Denoising With Gaussian Noise Level Learning

Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou

Blind and universal image denoising consists of using a unique model that denoises images with any level of noise. It is especially practical as noise levels do not need to be known when the model is developed or at test time. We propose a theoretically-gr ...
