Abstract: Abstract A beam delivery system for large uniform dose fields suitable for cancer radiotherapy has been constructed for the TRIUMF pion treatment facility using discrete step beam scanning in three dimensions. The patient on a couch is scanned laterally relative to a pencil beam in a raster fashion. At each spot, the depth dose profile is delivered by range modulations using a range shifter. The operations of the scanning couch and range shifter are synchronized by the use of beam monitor pulses from a beam intensity integrating system. The system is hence versatile enough to handle treatment...

Abstract: Abstract The authors have studied annealing effects on the interfacial electronic structures and long-lived photoexcitation kinetics of poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT) on gold, in comparison with poly[2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene], using two-photon photoemission spectroscopy. Their studies show dramatic annealing effects on the two-photon photoemission yield and the kinetics of long-lived photoexcitations of P3HT. The interfacial electronic structures also strongly depend on the thermal annealing condition. Upon annealing P3HT, the photoemission yield is enhan...
Abstract: Abstract The unidirectional coupling of a microcavity mode to a ridge waveguide in a slab photonic crystal structure was investigated for the first time. Experimental observation of the coupling efficiency for the signal coupled out of the structure is in good agreement with the result of three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain simulations. The coupling efficiency of the cavity mode to the output channel is ~60%.

Abstract: Among older people, the detection and control of hypertension is particularly important to reduce cardiovascular disease risk. This cross-sectional survey aimed to describe the detection, treatment and control of hypertension in older British adults. A total of 3059 women and 3007 men aged 60-79 years were randomly selected from general practice age/sex registers in 24 British towns and examined from 1998 to 2001. Of these, 52.6% women and 47.9% men had at least one indicator of hypertension (high blood pressure on examination, or taking antihypertensive medication or recalled a doctor diagnos...
Abstract: Abstract Although the capacitance measurement is a common method to obtain the depletion width in a Schottky contact, the method is challenging in an organic Schottky junction since the capacitance is a combination of the capacitances associated with the trapped charges, bulk semiconductor, and the depletion region. The authors have implemented a metal-semiconductor field-effect transistor structure in order to estimate the depletion width in an organic Schottky contact. In the transistor the depletion width is calculated from the drain current at a small drain-source voltage. The result indi...
Abstract: Abstract The past three years has seen the main influx of microprocessor based equipment the vital traction control field. British Rail now have the classes 90, 91 and 319 locomotives/multiple units with processor driven thyristor DC drives and the second-generation push-pull equipment in service, and the three-phase drive under development with the class 60 about to enter service. The author examines the past, present and future prospects of microprocessor-based traction control from the viewpoint of British Rail experiences
