Poloidal asymmetries in neutral and impurity ion temperatures and particle and impurity transports have been observed in many tokamaks. To investigate these asymmetries, space-resolved visible spectroscopic diagnostic of the ADTIYA-U tokamak has been upgraded to measure the spatial profile of Hα and impurities spectral line profile, ion temperature, and plasma rotation from both low and high field sides of the plasma, simultaneously with a better spatial resolution. This has been done by developing a linear array of 15 optical fibers as compared to the present linear array of nine fibers having a core diameter of 400 μm and coupling it to the entrance slit of a 1 m long high-resolution spectrometer of the existing diagnostic.

We propose and demonstrate a holographic imaging scheme exploiting random illuminations for recording hologram and then applying numerical reconstruction and twin image removal. We use an in-line holographic geometry to record the hologram in terms of the second-order correlation and apply the numerical approach to reconstruct the recorded hologram. This strategy helps to reconstruct high-quality quantitative images in comparison to the conventional holography where the hologram is recorded in the intensity rather than the second-order intensity correlation.

The role of end-of-life care is fundamental for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, who are known to have a high morbidity and mortality rate despite being on dialysis. This requires effective communication and shared decision-making. Thus, exploring patients' knowledge and perceptions is essential to improve the gaps in delivering end-of-life care.

Lung carcinoma is the most common cancer in men and second in women (preceded by breast cancer) worldwide. Around 1 in 10 of all cancers diagnosed in men, lung cancer contributed to a total fraction of 20% cancer deaths. Naringenin (NAR) is well known for its chemopreventive properties since ancient times but lacks an appropriate delivery carrier.
