We proposed a Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering (RBS) spectrometer based on a virtually imaged phased array (VIPA) for fast measurements of high-gas temperature. We measured the RBS spectra of air in the temperature range of 374 to 1073 K with an acquisition time of 7 s. We used the Tenti S6 model to fit the spectra and retrieve the absolute temperature values.

CO RBS spectra at gas pressure of 0.5-4 bar were acquired with a spectrum acquisition time of 10 s, and temperature inversion analysis was performed using TENTI S6 model.

The aim of this work was to investigate the therapeutic effect of cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive cannabis, on sublesional bone loss in a rat model of SCI. The adult male rats were exposed to surgical transection of the cord and treated with CBD for consecutive 14 days.
