The medical CT scanner is rapidly evolving from the fan-beam mode to the cone-beam geometry mode. In this paper, a new cone-beam pseudo Lambda tomography was proposed based on the Noo's fan beam super-short scan formula and FDK framework. The proposed pseudo-LT algorithm, which avoids the computation of any PI line and any differential operation, has a significant practical implementation, thus leading to the images with quality improvement and reduced artifacts. The results in the simulation studies confirm the observation that the new algorithm can improve the image resolution over the traditional algorithms with noise projection data.

Semiconductor photocatalytic technology is increasingly being utilized in wastewater treatment due to its high efficiency, low energy consumption and environmental friendliness. However, single photocatalysts often exhibit low catalytic performance. In this study, a ZnFeO/AgI composite photocatalyst was initially prepared using a high-energy ball-milling method.

The topology of multidimensional potential energy surfaces defines the bimolecular collision outcomes of open-shell radicals with molecular partners. Understanding these surfaces is crucial for predicting the inelastic scattering and chemical transformations of increasingly complex radical-molecule collisions. To characterize the inelastic scattering mechanisms of nitric oxide (NO) radicals with large alkanes, we generated the collision complexes comprised of NO with propane or -butane.

Article Synopsis
- Advanced oxidation processes (AOP) are highlighted as effective for removing organic contaminants, specifically targeting drug mixtures like atenolol and propranolol.
- Two mixed catalysts were tested—pyrite with graphene oxide and pyrite with zinc oxide—using the photo-Fenton process with UV light, with the pyrite-zinc oxide combination showing the highest degradation rates at 88% and 84% for specific wavelengths.
- Toxicity assessments revealed mixed results; while cabbage seeds had reduced germination rates post-treatment, watercress seeds showed no toxicity, underscoring the need to evaluate environmental impacts on different organisms.
Two CMOS Wilkinson Power Dividers Using High Slow-Wave and Low-Loss Transmission Lines.

This work presents two Wilkinson power dividers (WPDs) using multi-layer pseudo coplanar waveguide (PCPW) structures. The PCPW-based WPDs were designed, implemented, and verified in a standard 180 nm CMOS process. The proposed PCPW features high slow-wave and low-loss performances compared to other common transmission lines.
