Inhalational anesthesia is supplied through an assisted ventilation system. It is mostly composed of xenon or nitrous oxide, halogenated hydrocarbons (HHCs), and oxygen. In order to reduce costs of the anesthesia compounds, the remaining anesthetics pres...

Stable and unstable isotopes of the heavy noble gas xenon find use in various medical applications. However, apart from 133
133
Xe, used for Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography, radioactive isotopes of xenon are currently complicated to obtain in ...

The dust grain surface potential is examined analytically and numerically in dusty plasmas containing negative/positive ion species by using the Cairn Tsallis (non-Maxwellian) dusty plasma. The equations for the dust-charging process are derived to solve...

Porous materials are ubiquitous systems with a large variety of applications from catalysis to polymer science, from soil to life science, from separation to building materials. Many relevant systems of biological or synthetic origin exhibit a hierarchy,...

This work aims to optimize a previous self-consistent model of a single stage electrohydrodynamic (EHD) thruster for space applications. The investigated parameters were the thruster performance (propulsion force T, the thrust to power ratio T/P, the ele...

Detectors based upon the noble elements, especially liquid xenon as well as liquid argon, as both single- and dual-phase types, require reconstruction of the energies of interacting particles, both in the field of direct detection of dark matter (weakly ...

We have developed ultrasonic instrumentation for simultaneous flow and composition measurement in a variety of gas mixtures. Flow and composition are respectively derived from measurements of the difference and average of sound transit times in opposite ...

Biexcitonic collision kinetics with prescribed diffusion in the ion track core have been applied for scintillation response due to heavy ions in liquid argon. The quenching factors q = EL/E, where E is the ion energy and EL is the energy expended for lum...
